While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Finance non responsive

I needed to change some tax information for which I go initial information on how to. When I went to do it the site would not let me in. I then sent an email advising that I still couldn't get in. I was given further instructions which also didn't work. I sent another three emails over 9 days until I finally got a response at which time they ask me for the information that needed to be changed and said they would do it. Way too painful for $200 and had more time into this than the actual consulting.

I had a very positive experience…

I had a very positive experience participating in a consulting engagement conducted by a professional selected by the company to support an internal client. From the beginning, there was a clear effort to understand the business context, the real operational challenges, and the expectations of the teams involved.
The approach was structured, objective, and collaborative, combining strategic perspective with practical and actionable recommendations. The consultant demonstrated strong technical expertise, solid analytical skills, and, most importantly, the ability to translate complex concepts into clear guidance for day-to-day decision-making.
Another key highlight was the professional posture throughout the entire process, with transparent communication, active listening, and respect for the organization’s culture and specific needs. The interactions were productive and focused on co-creating solutions, always aiming to generate real business value.
The consulting engagement contributed meaningfully to expanding the understanding of the challenges at hand and supporting decision-making, providing clear inputs for future improvements. I would recommend this experience to companies seeking a serious, practical, and results-oriented consulting partnership aligned with internal objectives.

Waste of time… deceiving

Nice platform in theory but… they se to be more willing to collect data through initial questionnaire rather than actual interview. In a nutshell, waste of time to be kind…

Seamless and professional

Seamless and professional! The whole experience of consulting was new to me, so to be partnered with a company like Guidepoint who makes the process so easy (for both the expert and the client) was very helpful. The technology is very user friendly and the staff is polished and transparent.

Great company

Great company

Only concern is that I do not always get relevant invitations, I am an orthopedic surgeon and sometimes get invitations for general surgeons or endocrinologists.

Useless

Each project review you receive is already closed once you click on it. You spend time to review and accept projects and you never get feedback. Useless network.

Positive Experience

Overall, Guidepoint is a well-managed expert network that I would highly recommend to senior professionals. It is an excellent way to stay connected to industry trends, share expertise, and contribute meaningful insights while maintaining flexibility and control over your time and schedule.

Guidepoint’s team does an excellent job vetting opportunities and clearly communicating the scope. I also appreciate the strong emphasis on compliance and confidentiality.

Looking forward to engaging in additional opportunities in the future.

Guidepoint is a good address

So far I was interviewed two times and the counterparts and the Guidepoint personell were very professional. The discussions were always fruitful and filled with good questions.
After consultation the money was quickly transferred.
I have only good connections so far with Guidepoint
