You may as well use Linkedin or NextDoor. I signed up after I got an email from my client telling me that "she had someone that she wanted to refer me to and asking me to sign up so she could make the referral"... Their was no referral. She didn't even know that they had contacted me in such a personal way. That is the first issue. This is not an invitation similar to most platform " X User is inviting you to try this tool" So to get ahead of their justification that you know what you signed up for. You don't know what you signing up for and how invasive it will be to you and every single person in your network.
I was open to sharing this tool since I thought it could be a good opportunity for a few clients that I have but I did not get to approve the message they sent. They will send messages to your entire network telling them you want to refer them to someone but its just a misleading message to get them to join. EXTREMELY MISLEADING AND NOT TRANSPARENT.
Then it will never stop sending you notification. Even when you unsubscribe and delete your account. They do not abide by consumer privacy policy mandates and they will not listen to your opt-out request. They get one star from me since they can't respect my request to not fill my inbox.
You can ready through all their poor review here (Thank you Trustpilot) and how Alignable replies. That will tell you a lot about a company. In every reply they simply justify their actions and take zero ownership of any faults. It very concerning when a company can not take responsibility and listen to the concerns of their users.

I've made many great contacts and I love being able to jump on a daytime zoom without leaving my office.

Alignable has a great social and business connection platform that helps business people meet one-on-one virtually and in person to just network and share what they are passionate about in life and their business world.

Meeting such talented and insightful business owners has been an absolute pleasure. In the short time I have been apart of Alignable, the networking events have been invaluable.

Actualy this is really cool. My first impresion of the sight was really negative becase I thought it was misreprenting how it conects you to people, but now Im really impressed.
I contacted support about my concerns and they got back to me quickly. And Ive already had multiple people reach out saying they want to start working with me. Its just an extra way to contact people and a great way to remind people what you are doing.

This is one of the worst companies I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with.
After being emailed multiple times by an ad specialist - I decided to run 1 ad in a newsletter. Prior to running it I asked about changing and canceling the ad, he assured me that's not a problem.
After creating an ad in a newsletter, it got 0 views. I understand ads can take time but it was a suspiciously low amount and the leads I had.. well I think they use bots.
I then try to cancel the ad from running again, to find out you aren't able to update your payment method. I reach out to the 'account manager' who then tries to pressuring me into staying. Emailing me 'do you want to succeed in business?' I am pretty direct and tell him I've contacted customer support and to just tell me when he can cancel my ad.
Then I learn that the ad can't be cancelled until 4 months from now? When did they tell me this, they never did. And instead underneath 1 of his emails in the email signature there is a tiny sentence that says 'months run for 4 months minimum'
Then I look online and see hundreds of complaints of the EXACT situation. I email telling him to cancel my ad or I'm calling my credit card company and reporting it as fraud.
The employee, who was very responsive when trying to pressure me into paying for their fraudulent service suddenly stopped responding.
I then called my credit card company and they looked into Alignable and found the same results as me. They suggested cancelling my credit card and issuing me a new one to prevent them from being able to randomly charge me for services in the future (because the complaints mention that a lot)
How does running an ad end with having to cut up your credit card? I'm not sure, but I'm very sure that Alignable is a terrible service and uses bots to make it seem as if there are many people to network with in your area.
EDIT because I can't respond BS Alignable is saying, what they are very conveniently leaving out is I had specifically asked the employee if I'd be able to change or cancel the ad before running it and was told that was not an issue.
The next thing I'd like to correct is he had been responding to me immediately when trying to pressure me into staying by saying things like 'do you want your business to grow' and after I had mentioned for the FIFTH time asking how I could cancel the next month he suddenly stopped responded. His next response only came the next day after I told him I had called my credit company and ON THEIR advice, after reading hundreds of reviews of Alignable, adviced I needed to cancel my business credit card.
Now, customer support is emailing m,e telling me they are 'confused about the situation' as if this isn't something that they regularly see.
DO NOT for a second think that Alignable is a good or transparent company. If you want to actively lose money to a fraudulent service then work with them. If you want to avoid having to get a credit card because that is the only way for them to stop charging you for services they didn't disclose - then you'll love this horrible company.
EDIT NUMBER 3:
Alignable now tried to report my review and get it taken off of trust pilot, could this situation be any weirder? Probably not.

Always keeping me up to date and also offering new contacts.

We could not recognize the alignable charge and we disputed with our credit card company because there was no name and it resembled other fraudulent activity not being easily identifiable. They locked our account and its taking days to get anyone to respond even after we alerted our CC that it was a mistake. They charge you at lighting speed. But, they are terrible in helping you resolve problems. We have had 3 executives from our company attempting to reach them. I would seriously hesitate with doing any additional advertising or any upsales with alignable. If you have issues they can take the sweet time in responding once they have your money.

I contacted the Alignable staff about suspicious voting (in Oakland, CA) during 2014 and was given assurances that it was legitimate. The reason I have doubts is because this business snuck in during the LAST WEEK of the contest and stole the show with social media. If he really was a legitimate business then why didn't it surface this year during the 2025 contest???
I realize I'm just a small speck on the map but, after winning the contest the prior 3 years, I have to ask...who is this guy and was he really legit to steal votes away from me? Call me crazy but it seems very sketchy!

This is a great place for networking and sharing information. I am a podcast host and I am happy to expand my audience awareness by posting upcoming episodes on here. I am still fairly new but looking to see how we can continue to grow.

I don’t like how you keep changing the premium plus from 100 to 75.
