"According to G2's own disclosures, the combined group will host around 6 million verified software reviews and reach more than 200 million software buyers annually across thousands of categories. Individually, the platforms already commanded significant scale: G2 reports over 3 million verified reviews on its platform Capterra publicly states it hosts more than 2.5 million reviews across business software categories Software Advice and GetApp, both part of Gartner Digital Markets, contribute additional large review inventories, though Gartner does not break out exact figures per site"
"G2 accounted for ~23.1% of review-platform citations Capterra for ~17.8% Software Advice for ~12.8% ( GetApp was included within the same Gartner Digital Markets cluster and not listed separately) Taken together, these figures imply that platforms now owned by G2 represent approximately 53-54% of global software-review visibility in this dataset. Analysts estimate that including GetApp's additional reach lifts that figure to roughly 55-58% of review and discovery influence, depending on methodology."
G2 agreed to acquire Capterra, Software Advice, and GetApp from Gartner, with the deal announced in late January and expected to close in Q1 2026. The combined group will host around 6 million verified software reviews and reach more than 200 million software buyers annually across thousands of categories. G2 reports over 3 million reviews and Capterra over 2.5 million, while Software Advice and GetApp add substantial additional inventories. An SE Ranking study found citation shares of approximately 23.1% for G2, 17.8% for Capterra, and 12.8% for Software Advice. Combined visibility for platforms now owned by G2 is roughly 53–58%, suggesting dominant influence though not a legal monopoly, as antitrust thresholds for monopoly typically exceed 70% while dominance can be recognized above 40–50% in markets with network effects.
