GetApp
Another Gartner Digital Markets property. Claim it when you claim Capterra. Do not run a separate “GetApp launch.”
GetApp is a software marketplace/directory in the same Gartner Digital Markets family as Capterra. Category pages, reviews, and paid leads show up here too. The operational move is: claim both profiles in one sitting so name, category, and screenshots match.

The third Gartner Digital Markets door. Call-based matching for buyers. Useful if you can handle inbound; useless as a badge.
Software Advice sends buyers who asked an advisor for recommendations. That is higher friction and higher intent than a self-serve Capterra click. It also means someone may call you. If you cannot take those calls, do not turn the spigot on.
