SaaSHub Alternatives in 2026: 11 Software Directories Checked for Price, Link and Review Time

Everything here was checked on the live sites on November 4, 2026. We read each submit, pricing and FAQ page and looked at the website button in the raw HTML of 30 SaaSHub listings and at least six listings on every alternative. Domain Ratings are Ahrefs figures from our directory dataset, refreshed by our crawler, and the screenshots are from the same day. Directories change their rules without notice, so check the page before you pay.

Quick answer: For a SaaS that wants to get listed, the closest SaaSHub alternatives in 2026 are AlternativeTo (DR 82, free, months-long queue, nofollow), StackShare (DR 78, free, followed link once you verify the tool), Product Hunt product pages (DR 92, free, rel="ugc"), OpenAlternative for open-source products (DR 61, followed link on paid packages only) and SaaSCity (DR 71, $19.99 one-time, reviewed by hand). For buyer reviews, claim G2, which now also runs Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice, then TrustRadius. No free review-site profile links to your website. Keep your SaaSHub listing whatever else you add: once verified, it is one of the few free followed links left in this category.

People search for SaaSHub alternatives for two reasons. Founders want more places to list a product, ideally ones that link back. Buyers want another site to compare software on. This guide covers both, with most of it written for founders, because the vendor side is where these sites differ most and where their own pages explain least.

SaaSHub is an "alternatives to X" engine with 255,355 products, and a verified listing gets a followed link for free. It brings little review volume, no real launch moment and modest buyer traffic: the Semrush listing had three reviews on the day we checked, and SaaSHub's new launch lineup had run zero launches. For most products the useful question is what to add next to SaaSHub.

Key takeaways

• Keep SaaSHub, and verify the listing. 17 of the 17 verified listings we opened had a followed Visit website button. 13 of 13 unverified listings were nofollow, and all 7 new unverified listings were noindex.
• SaaSHub now sells a faster approval: $75, or $99 for Priority Extra. The prices are published on VibeVoted, which SaaSHub's terms call "a project of SaaSHub". The free queue still has no published time.
• Free followed links are rare in this category. Of the 11 alternatives below, only StackShare (after a free verification) gives a free listing a followed link. OpenAlternative and TrustRadius follow the link on paid plans only.
• Free G2, Capterra, SourceForge, SaaSworthy and SoftwareSuggest profiles had no link to the vendor's website at all, and their paid buttons went through nofollow click trackers.
• AlternativeTo's FAQ now says links to apps' websites "are nofollow unless our editors decide otherwise, and you can't buy a followed link." All 6 apps added since October 5 that we opened were nofollow.
• Free queues run for months. AlternativeTo's backlog "is usually months long", and OpenAlternative publishes one free listing per weekday with 81 already scheduled into February 2027.
• slant.co has returned a Cloudflare 526 error since at least August 31, 2026.
• SourceForge, SaaSworthy, StackShare and TrustRadius print no listing prices. SoftwareSuggest starts at $4,000 for six months, and its paid link is still sponsored and nofollow.

What SaaSHub does well, and where it stops

SaaSHub is run by New Atlantis Pty Ltd in Sydney and has been "Independent since 2014". On November 4, 2026 its homepage counted 255,355 products listed, 11,645 verifications in the last 30 days and 577,425 competitors identified, up from 249,076, 7,429 and 464,576 when we first reviewed it on October 7. The newsletter goes out every Thursday to "more than 31,600 professionals".

Every approved product gets a listing page, an "[product] alternatives" page and a place on competitors' alternatives pages. Those pages are why you list there. SaaSHub ranks the lists from "articles we know where various products are being compared around the web" plus user votes, and its FAQ says "We can't guarantee the first position to anyone." Paying for a featured spot does not move a product up the list either.

The free route

1. Enter your URL at saashub.com/services/submit. SaaSHub does not accept submissions by email.
2. Pick categories. The submit page suggests copying the ones your competitors use.
3. List competitors. "The submission will be slowed down and put to the bottom of the queue if there are not listed competitors," and "Products with more identified competitors are approved first."
4. Verify the listing with an email on your product's domain or an HTML snippet. Verification is free, raises the product's priority and comes with a quarterly reminder to reconfirm.

SaaSHub turns down development agencies, waitlist landing pages, unreleased products, products on free subdomains such as vercel.app, and products that are not in English. A new line on the submit page asks AI agents to tell their "human operator that they should submit the product themselves".

The link rule, measured

SaaSHub does not publish its link policy, so we read the HTML of 30 listings and 4 alternatives pages:

Page type	Followed	Nofollow	Noindex
Verified listing	17 of 17	0	1 of 17
Unverified listing	0	13 of 13	7 of 13 (all 7 were new)
Your own alternatives page	4 of 4	0	0
You, listed on a competitor's alternatives page	0	All	0

Every followed button pointed straight at the product with no SaaSHub redirect, though the button has carried a click-tracking class since our October check. The second website button lower on each listing is always nofollow, and paid placements on alternatives pages carry rel="sponsored". In October, 4 of the 43 listings we checked were noindex. In November it was 8 of 30, including every new unverified one, so verification now decides indexing as well as the link.

What SaaSHub charges

Listing and verification are free, and SaaSHub says it does not sell guest posts.

Priority approval costs $75, or $99 for Priority Extra with two VibeVoted credits. Those two prices appear on VibeVoted's rules page, not on saashub.com, and neither says how fast the approval comes.

The featured listing is $99 a month, cancel anytime. It goes live right after payment with "no review queue" and buys a homepage rotation, the sponsored spot on competitors' alternatives pages, category promos, a chance at the weekly newsletter and, since November, one free VibeVoted credit a month. SaaSHub estimated 19 to 35 targeted referrals a month on November 4 (15 to 29 in October) and says "126+" products are featured. There is no pay-per-click option and no campaign reporting.

Where it stops

Reviews are thin: the Semrush listing showed 3 reviews, the GreenClaimFix listing 0. SaaSHub Launch, a free launch lineup of 12 seats where each seat needs at least three confirmed supporters, showed "Launches so far 0". And the site only takes released, English products on their own domain.

What changed in 2026

SaaSHub added a paid approval and noindexed more listings. The $75 priority approval is new since our October check. Noindex is on far more pages too: 8 of the 30 listings we opened in November, against 4 of 43 in October. SaaSHub's terms added VibeVoted, a voting site that sells credits at $25 each, on October 15.

AlternativeTo stopped printing its priority price and put its link rule in writing. In October its FAQ showed a one-time $5 priority review. In November the fee is "shown before you pay", and the FAQ answers "Are links from AlternativeTo dofollow? Usually not." It also says "we now decline more apps than before", and its reasons include thin AI wrappers, "simple online tools" and games that do not "clear the bar".

G2 now runs four review sites as one. It bought Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice from Gartner (announced January 29, 2026), so one G2 seller account manages all four. It merged buyer intent data across them on June 3, by late October ran new G2 Clicks ad campaigns on all four sites, and from November 4 counts a review sent through its unified flow toward the rating on all four. Gartner kept Peer Insights, which our software review sites guide covers with the other enterprise review sites.

Slant went offline. Its last working homepage capture is from June 29, 2026, and every URL has returned Cloudflare's "Invalid SSL certificate" error since at least August 31.

SaaSworthy and SoftwareSuggest both started selling "AEO/GEO visibility" in 2026, at $2,500 one-time or $10,000 a month with a six-month minimum. Their two pages use the same sample prompt and the same invented brand names, although different companies run the two sites.

The 11 alternatives at a glance

DR is Ahrefs Domain Rating from our dataset. "Link to your site" is what a listing's website button was in the raw HTML on November 4, 2026, free listing first. "Cheapest paid" is the lowest published price a vendor can pay.

#	Site	DR	Link to your site	Cheapest paid	Review time
	SaaSHub (baseline)	81	Followed if verified	$75 priority approval	Not published
1	AlternativeTo	82	Nofollow	Priority review, price at checkout	Months, or 1 to 2 days paid
2	StackShare	78	Followed if verified	None published	Claim in minutes
3	Product Hunt	92	ugc	Ads by quote	Page is instant
4	OpenAlternative (open source only)	61	Nofollow, followed if paid	Shown after sign-in	About 4 months, or 1 day paid
5	SaaSCity	71	Direct link	$19.99 one-time	24 hours
6	G2	91	None, nofollow if paid	$299 a month	3 to 5 business days
7	Capterra (via G2)	91	None, no href if paid	Pay per click	Via G2
8	TrustRadius (100+ customers)	85	None, followed if paid	By demo	Not published
9	SourceForge	93	None, nofollow if paid	By quote	Not published
10	SaaSworthy (SaaS only)	76	None	By quote	Not published
11	SoftwareSuggest (B2B only)	78	None, nofollow if paid	$4,000 for 6 months	Not published

Alternatives engines and directories

These five are closest to SaaSHub: a permanent page for your product, placed next to the products it competes with.

1. AlternativeTo

DR: 82 · Cost: Free, or a paid priority review · Link: Nofollow on new apps · Best for: People switching away from a tool you replace

AlternativeTo is the original alternatives engine, made by Ola and Markus at 27 Kilobyte AB in Stockholm. It counted 161,030 apps "Ranked by 2,059,829 User Opinions" on November 4, and nearly every recommendation on it comes from users. You can add your app, but you cannot buy your way up its lists.

To get listed, create an account, verify your email, then use "Suggest new application" and fill in platforms, license, descriptions and tags. Leave UTM tags off the website link and keep links, emails and phone numbers out of the description. While the app waits for review, only you can see it.

The free queue "holds several thousand apps", and the terms say the backlog "is usually months long". A one-time priority review is "usually reviewed within 1-2 business days". Its price is now "shown before you pay" (it was $5 in October), and paying only moves you up the queue: approval is still the editors' call. Verified members and long-time contributors skip the backlog for free.

All 6 apps added between October 5 and November 2 that we opened had rel="nofollow noopener", and so did older listings, SaaSHub's own included. Established apps such as Obsidian and Excalidraw were followed. AlternativeTo turns down unreleased, regional and hardware products, content sites, "simple online tools", "a thin wrapper around someone else's model", clones and games that do not clear the bar. Our AlternativeTo listing guide has the full rules.

2. StackShare

DR: 78 · Cost: Free · Link: Followed once verified · Best for: Developer tools, APIs and infrastructure

StackShare lists tools by the tech stacks that use them, and FOSSA has run it since August 2024. Its counters disagree with each other: the homepage filter shows 151K tools, while the About page says "50K+ Developer Tools" and "10M+ Monthly Developers". New tools keep arriving, though. The newest-tools page showed 20 added on November 4.

"List a Tool" asks you to sign in with GitHub or Google. From the tool's page, use "Claim this tool" and verify with an email on the tool's domain or admin rights on its GitHub repo. StackShare says verification "is completely free", and email verification usually takes minutes.

After a verified SaaSHub listing, this is the only free followed link in this guide that needs no badge. On the 10 tool pages and 40 tool cards we checked, the Visit Website link was followed (rel="noopener noreferrer") on every verified tool and on unverified tools with 10 or more stacks. Unverified tools with 1 to 4 stacks got "nofollow ugc". StackShare does not document this, and we found no tool with 5 to 9 stacks to pin down the cut-off.

Every tool page we opened set its canonical URL to the StackShare homepage, so Google may not index the page that carries your link. The "Submit your tool" button on the tool-maker page also pointed to an unrelated user profile on the day we checked, so claim from the tool page.

3. Product Hunt

DR: 92 · Cost: Free · Link: rel="ugc" · Best for: A permanent product page in Product Hunt's alternatives network

Product Hunt keeps a permanent product page after launch day, and every product page has an alternatives page. Those work like SaaSHub's. Product Hunt lists them in their own sitemap under titles like "[Product] Competitors & Alternatives (2026)", each with its own canonical URL. Big products get an editorial write-up, small ones a short list with a promoted slot at the top.

On all 8 product pages we opened, including one launching that day, the Visit website button linked straight to the product with rel="noreferrer noopener ugc". Google treats ugc as a hint, much like nofollow. Competitors on an alternatives page link only to their Product Hunt pages.

The page is free and indexable, and a launch brings a day of traffic SaaSHub has no equivalent for. Plan the launch with our Product Hunt alternatives guide and the Product Hunt listing guide.

4. OpenAlternative

DR: 61 · Cost: Free, or a paid package · Link: Nofollow free, followed paid · Best for: Open-source products with a proprietary rival

OpenAlternative is "a community-driven list of open source alternatives to proprietary software", built by Piotr Kulpinski. It claims 220,000 monthly visitors and 8K newsletter subscribers. It only lists open-source projects and established source-available ones, so a closed-source SaaS cannot go here.

After signing in you submit the project name, website, repository and the proprietary product it replaces ("Other open-source tools don't count"), and every submission is reviewed by hand. It turns down CLIs, libraries, SDKs, browser extensions, MCP servers, thin AI wrappers, GitHub-only projects, forks and waitlists, and rejects repos below a star count or without recent commits.

"Free listings go live one per weekday, so the wait can be a few months." On November 4 the queue held 81 free listings scheduled up to February 26, 2027. Free listings were nofollow on all 11 we checked. Premium and Ultimate packages skip the queue (three Premium listings went live within a day) and were followed on all 7 we checked, though two Ultimate listings linked through an OpenAlternative redirect to an affiliate link. Package prices appear only after sign-in, and ads start at $147 a month.

5. SaaSCity

DR: 71 · Cost: $19.99 one-time · Link: Direct · Best for: A permanent, hand-reviewed listing

SaaSCity is our own SaaS directory, so weigh this entry accordingly. Every listing is reviewed by hand. It gets a permanent listing page and community upvotes.

• Basic listing, $19.99: reviewed by hand, live within 24 hours, a followed link and a building on the city map.
• Premium listing, $39.99: everything in Basic listing plus a launch review on our blog, written by us, with five links.

All prices are one-time. A SaaSHub listing and a SaaSCity listing can both link to you, so keep both. Pricing has the details.

Review marketplaces: buyers, not links

These four have more authority than SaaSHub and far more buyer traffic, but a free profile on any of them links nowhere. List on them for reviews and for the buyers who read them.

6. G2

DR: 91 · Cost: Free profile, paid from $299 a month · Link: None on free profiles · Best for: B2B software that will collect reviews

G2 is a B2B software review marketplace with more than 3 million reviews, by its own count. Since it bought Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice in 2026, one G2 seller account manages all four, and from November 4, 2026 a review sent through G2's unified flow counts toward the rating on all four sites.

Search for your product, then use "Add your product to G2" from a seller account validated with LinkedIn or a business email. The product is approved on condition, G2's research team checks it in about 3 to 5 business days, and a claim takes 1 to 3 more. G2 takes B2B software and services only, so B2C, alpha and beta products are out, and so are most extensions and plug-ins.

The free plan covers the profile, basic review collection and the Users Love Us badge once you earn it. Starter is $299 a month with no contract, or $2,999 a year, for companies with 1 to 100 employees. G2 Clicks pay-per-click needs a $500 monthly minimum, and new campaigns run on all four sites with no way to leave one out.

A free profile has no link to your website. Of the 7 G2 profiles we checked (copies from October 13 to 27), 5 had a Visit Website button, each a form that submits to G2's own click tracker with rel="nofollow noopener", and 2 had no link at all. None linked straight to the vendor.

A product needs 10 reviews in a category to appear in G2's Grid reports, where B2B buyers shortlist, and 20 reviews averaging 4.0 for the Users Love Us badge. Before that, the free profile mostly holds your place. Our G2 listing guide has the review rules.

7. Capterra (with GetApp and Software Advice)

DR: 91 · Cost: Free profile, pay per click or per lead · Link: None · Best for: Small-business software with a trial or demo

Capterra has been running since 1999 and now calls itself "powered by G2 Digital Markets", alongside GetApp (DR 86) and Software Advice (DR 87). Its "Get Your Product Listed" button opens G2's product form, and one listing covers all three sites.

It lists packaged software on public sale with a free trial, a demo or a request-for-info offer, in an existing category. Marketplaces, database sites, personal productivity tools, clones, personal apps, custom builds and waitlist-only products are turned down. Beta products are allowed with a working site, a public offer and at least one review in their first year.

None of the 7 pages we checked on Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice had an HTML link to a vendor's site. Sponsored profiles get a Visit Website button with no href that sends the click through Capterra's pay-per-click counter, which gives search engines nothing to follow. Neither the pay-per-click and pay-per-lead rates nor an approval time are published.

Capterra's Shortlist reports need 20 reviews within 24 months. Our Capterra listing guide covers the profile rules.

8. TrustRadius

DR: 85 · Cost: Free profile, Premium by demo · Link: Followed on paid profiles only · Best for: Established B2B vendors with 100+ customers

TrustRadius hosts in-depth B2B reviews and has belonged to HG Insights since 2025. Since August 2026 its vendor plans are sold as HG Customer Voice, and it says it reaches 1M+ buyers a month.

A free profile needs a personal work email at the company domain, a LinkedIn company page, a generally available product sold to businesses (no betas) and at least 100 customers. Agencies can only be co-admins. Listing approval time is not published, and reviews typically take 3 to 5 business days.

The requirements page says TrustRadius does not provide backlinks. Paid profiles link out anyway: all 3 we opened had a call-to-action link straight to the vendor with rel="noopener noreferrer", which is followed. The 3 free profiles had no link, and the two with zero reviews were noindex, because a product page is not indexed until its first review. Premium has no published price, and its button books a demo.

9. SourceForge

DR: 93 · Cost: Free listing, paid plans by quote · Link: None on free listings · Best for: Presence and reviews on the highest-DR site in this guide

SourceForge is better known for open-source downloads, and it also runs a business software directory. Slashdot Media says it lists "over 128,800 software titles" and gets "roughly 20 million visitors per month", and a listing also appears on Slashdot and Top Business Software. Listing is free: search first, claim your product if it is already there, otherwise request a new listing. Descriptions must be in English.

None of the 8 basic listings we opened linked to the vendor. The domain is printed as plain text, and the page shows "Learn more" ads for paying competitors. Paid listings get a Visit Website button through an ad redirect with rel="nofollow", which robots.txt also blocks. The Plus, Premium, Amplify, Precision ABM and Enterprise plans have no published rates.

Skip unless you have a budget

These two claim large audiences, but a free listing gives you no link to your site, and the paid tiers are priced for marketing teams.

10. SaaSworthy

DR: 76 · Cost: Free standard listing, paid by quote · Link: None · Best for: Teams buying placements

SaaSworthy, run by 91Digital in Gurgaon, says it tracks "75,000+ software across 600 categories". The free Standard listing starts as a lead form that asks for your phone number and funding stage, and only SaaS products qualify. The Premium, Core and Ultimate plans have no published price. None of the 10 listings we opened had an HTML link to the vendor. The website is a clickable span that opens /redir.php, which robots.txt blocks, and the sponsored monday.com listing pointed to an affiliate tracker.

11. SoftwareSuggest

DR: 78 · Cost: Free listing, paid from $4,000 for 6 months · Link: None free, sponsored nofollow paid · Best for: Teams buying leads

SoftwareSuggest, owned by MSP Digital Media, lists "over 50k software and services". It takes publicly available B2B products and turns down custom software, personal apps and clones. Free listings send visitors into SoftwareSuggest's own "Free Demo" and "Get Pricing" forms, and 9 of the 10 free listings we opened had no link to the vendor. Paid plans cost $4,000 for six months, $9,000 for six months or $15,000 a year, and even then the Visit Website button is rel="sponsored nofollow" through SoftwareSuggest's own tracker.

Gone: Slant

Slant ranked products by community votes and claimed 2.8 million monthly users. Every slant.co URL has returned "Error code 526 Invalid SSL certificate" since at least August 31, 2026, and no shutdown was announced.

SaaSHub vs AlternativeTo

These two are the closest substitutes for each other.

	SaaSHub	AlternativeTo
Products	255,355	161,030 apps
Ranked by	Comparison articles across the web plus votes	2,059,829 user opinions
Free listing	Yes, after manual approval	Yes, after a months-long queue
Paid speed	$75 priority approval	Priority review, price at checkout
Link to your site	Followed when verified	Nofollow on new apps, by policy
New listing indexed	Not until verified, in our check	Yes, all 14 we opened
Paid promotion	$99 a month featured	Partner banner by email
Declines	Agencies, waitlists, unreleased, non-English, free subdomains	AI wrappers, simple online tools, regional, unreleased, low-bar games

List on both. The followed link comes from SaaSHub and the larger community from AlternativeTo. Verify SaaSHub on day one so the listing is indexed and followed, and submit to AlternativeTo early because of its queue.

If you are a buyer, not a vendor

If you came here to compare software rather than list it, the picks are shorter:

• "I use X, what else is there?": AlternativeTo, where users rank the alternatives, and SaaSHub.
• A serious B2B purchase: G2 for review volume and Grid reports, Capterra for filtering small-business software by price and features.
• Enterprise software: TrustRadius and Gartner Peer Insights.
• Developer tools: StackShare, to see which tech stacks use a tool.
• Open-source replacements: OpenAlternative.
• New products: Product Hunt and SaaSCity's live launches, for what launched this week.

An order of work for listing everywhere

1. Day 1, SaaSHub: submit with categories and named competitors, then verify with a domain email. The link and the indexing depend on it.
2. Day 1, AlternativeTo: verify your account email and suggest the app now, because the free queue takes months.
3. Day 1, StackShare: list or claim the tool and verify it with a domain email for the followed link.
4. Week 1, G2: add the product once. The same account covers Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice.
5. Launch week, Product Hunt and SaaSCity: the Product Hunt page stays after the launch, and the SaaSCity listing is a permanent page.
6. Open source only, OpenAlternative: submit early for the free queue, or pay to skip it if you want the followed link.
7. Later, TrustRadius and SourceForge: claim SourceForge any time. TrustRadius wants 100 customers, and its page stays out of Google until the first review.
8. Last, paid placements: buy SaaSHub's featured month or any directory ad only with a UTM-tagged link, and judge it on signups after 30 days.

Any of these links can change without notice. Check yours with the free Domain Rating checker and by inspecting the button's rel attribute, and search site: the directory for your product after two weeks to confirm the page is indexed.

How we checked

On November 4, 2026 we read the submit, pricing, FAQ and terms pages of SaaSHub and all 11 alternatives, plus Slant's archived pages. For each site we read the HTML of at least six product pages and recorded the website button's href, its rel attribute, any redirect, and the page's meta robots and canonical tags. That came to 30 listings and 4 alternatives pages on SaaSHub, 14 on AlternativeTo, 10 tool pages and 40 tool cards on StackShare, 8 on Product Hunt, 18 on OpenAlternative, 10 to 12 each on SourceForge, SaaSworthy and SoftwareSuggest, 7 across Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice, and 6 on TrustRadius. For G2 we used copies of 7 profiles from October 13 to 27. We did not sign up, submit or pay anywhere. DR figures come from our directory dataset and refresh with our crawler.

SaaSCity is one of the 11 sites and is ours. Its entry was written from our own pricing, and its link was checked the same way as the others.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best SaaSHub alternative?

It depends on why you are looking. To get a SaaS listed with a followed link at no cost, StackShare (after a free claim and verification) is the one in this guide that does it. To show up on "alternatives to X" searches, AlternativeTo and Product Hunt's product alternatives pages do the same job as SaaSHub, with nofollow and ugc links. For buyer reviews, claim G2 first, because one G2 account now also manages Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice. Most products should keep a verified SaaSHub listing and add two or three of these.

Is SaaSHub free, and is its link dofollow?

Listing on SaaSHub is free, and so is verification. On November 4, 2026, 17 of the 17 verified listings we opened had a followed Visit website button (an empty rel attribute), and 13 of the 13 unverified listings had rel="nofollow". Verify with an email on your product's domain or an HTML meta tag, and answer the quarterly reconfirmation email to keep it. The second button lower on every listing is always nofollow.

How long does SaaSHub take to approve a product?

SaaSHub does not publish a time for the free queue. It says products with more identified competitors are approved first, a submission without competitors goes to the bottom of the queue, and verifying the product gives it a higher priority. There is also a paid route: priority approval for $75, or Priority Extra for $99 with two VibeVoted credits. Both prices are on VibeVoted, which SaaSHub's terms call a project of SaaSHub, and neither comes with a stated turnaround.

Why is my new SaaSHub listing noindex?

On November 4, 2026, all 7 unverified listings in SaaSHub's Latest Additions carried a meta robots tag of "noindex, follow". Established unverified pages and almost every verified page were indexable. SaaSHub does not document the rule, but in our check verified listings were the ones that were indexable and followed. Your product's alternatives page stayed indexable even when its listing page was noindex.

Is SaaSHub's $99 featured listing worth it?

Only if you will measure it. The featured listing costs $99 a month, cancel anytime, goes live without a review queue and puts the product on the homepage rotation, competitors' alternatives pages (as a sponsored entry), category pages and a chance at the weekly newsletter. SaaSHub's own estimate on November 4, 2026 was 19 to 35 targeted referrals a month, and it offers no campaign stats, so tag the URL with UTM parameters and judge it on signups after one month. Featuring does not move a product up the ranked alternatives list.

SaaSHub vs AlternativeTo: which is better for a SaaS?

For a link, SaaSHub: a verified SaaSHub listing is followed, while AlternativeTo's FAQ says its links to apps are nofollow unless its editors decide otherwise, and a followed link cannot be bought. For reach, AlternativeTo, with 2,059,829 user opinions across 161,030 apps. AlternativeTo is also stricter. It declines thin AI wrappers, simple online tools and regional apps, and its free queue is usually months long. List on both.

Which SaaSHub alternatives give a dofollow backlink?

Checked on November 4, 2026: StackShare follows the Visit Website link on verified tools and on unverified tools with 10 or more stacks, and verification is free. SaaSCity follows the link on every listing, all of which are paid. OpenAlternative follows the link only on its paid Premium and Ultimate packages. TrustRadius follows the website button only on paid profiles. AlternativeTo is nofollow for new apps, Product Hunt product pages use rel="ugc", and free G2, Capterra, SourceForge, SaaSworthy and SoftwareSuggest profiles have no link to your site at all.

Is Slant still working?

No. Every slant.co URL we tried on November 4, 2026 returned a Cloudflare "Error code 526 Invalid SSL certificate" page, and Internet Archive captures show the same error on August 31, September 9, 10 and 13, and October 11, 2026. The last working capture of the homepage is from June 29, 2026. We found no shutdown announcement.

Do G2 and Capterra link to my website?

Not from a free profile. A free G2 profile has no link to the vendor's website, and neither does a free Capterra, GetApp or Software Advice profile. Paid G2 profiles get a Visit Website button that is a form submitting to G2's click tracker with rel="nofollow noopener". Capterra's sponsored button has no href at all and routes the click through its pay-per-click counter. List on them for reviews and buyer traffic.
