SquadHelp
reviews and complaints

SquadHelp is a pretty cool website where you can get some sweet logos made for your business or whatever you need them for. I really liked that the contestants were willing to do edits and were creative, but sometimes it was hard to explain what I wanted. It would be super helpful if I could upload pictures to show examples or make edits to submissions and show them what is meant by "this color" or "make it longer right here"...and show with an arrow etc. Sometimes I had to ask the staff to upload pictures and it seemed like I was wasting their time.

Overall, I'm happy with my logos but only because I guided them, googled ideas and had to show them fonts when they all kept using a standard cursive instead of something creative like I asked for. They were willing to make as many edits as I asked for, but I wish they had more branding experience so they could give me suggestions instead of me having to ask for so many edits.

I have to say, though, that there were some really talented people on the site and I was impressed with the quality of work. It was definitely worth the price and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a logo or branding help. The process was easy and straightforward, and I was able to get my logos in a timely manner.

In conclusion, SquadHelp is a great service with some nice talent participating. It would be even better if they allowed for easier communication with pictures and edits, but overall I'm happy with my experience.

SquadHelp is a great platform for those who are looking to start their own business or brand. It is a website that provides a variety of services to help you come up with a unique and catchy name for your business. I stumbled upon SquadHelp while searching for a name for my new business. I was impressed with the variety of options available on the website.

The process of using SquadHelp is very simple. You start by creating a brief for your business, which includes information about your brand, target audience, and the type of name you are looking for. Once you have created your brief, you can choose from a variety of naming contests that are available on the website. These contests are created by other users who are looking for a name for their business.

I found the naming contests to be very helpful in coming up with a name for my business. The contests are very competitive, and you get to see a variety of different names that other users have come up with. You can also provide feedback on the names that are submitted, which helps to refine the options even further.

Overall, I would highly recommend SquadHelp to anyone who is looking to start their own business or brand. The website is very user-friendly, and the variety of options available is impressive. Whether you are looking for a unique and catchy name for your business, or you need help with branding and marketing, SquadHelp is the perfect platform for you. So, if you are interested in starting your own business, I would definitely recommend giving SquadHelp a try.

As a graphic designer, I have to say that the UX and UI of SquadHelp's website could use some updating. The UX, in particular, could be improved, especially when there are a lot of entries (we almost hit 1000 entries!). It was difficult for me to manage it all, as every time I clicked on "Entries," the default checkbox was always ticked, and I had to uncheck it every time because it didn't remember my settings. Additionally, it wasn't clear to me that the shortlist didn't have "rating emojis," so I could only remove it from the shortlist, but it was still saved as a "love it emoji." So, I removed it, but it was still on the "Love it" list, which, to me, should be the same as the shortlist.

Overall, my impression of the experience was very good, but I would recommend that SquadHelp hire a superstar UX designer to sort out these small issues. Also, it's important to remember about the mobile version! Our contest was also during the weekend when I was traveling, so I had to manage it mainly by phone.

Thanks, and all the best!

I gotta say, my experience with SquadHelp has been pretty awesome. We went with the second tier package, which promised 300+ entries, but we ended up getting a whopping 2,300+! It was a bit overwhelming, to be honest, but we appreciated all the participation. Maybe they could update the descriptions a bit to better manage expectations.

The comment feature and receiving comments was a bit tricky to navigate, though. It took some digging to find answers about the next steps in the contest. I wasn't sure if we had to select a winner before time expired, but thankfully I was able to find an answer pretty easily with the chat feature.

Overall, SquadHelp was a super helpful solution for us to crowd-source an idea. We're a small startup, so the cost was a big benefit. Plus, it really helped us question our brand as we're just starting out. There are also a ton of support resources available, like trademark and audience testing, which we might take advantage of in the future.

All in all, I think SquadHelp has brought some great solutions at a fair price. There might be some user experience aspects that could be improved, but overall it's been a great experience. Thanks, SquadHelp!

So, I stumbled upon SquadHelp and decided to check it out. It's a website where people can participate in a design competition and register as a member to vote for their favorite design. Sounds interesting, right? Well, I was surprised to see that the winner had more votes than the existing members. In fact, the winner won by more than 100%! I mean, how is that even possible? I was curious and asked them about it, but I never got a response. Maybe they are still trying to come up with an answer, who knows?

To be honest, it seems like a fraud to me. In politics, this would be considered a fraudulent act. So, why is the website letting the winner get away with it? The only explanation I can think of is that they are working together or maybe there is only one person monitoring the whole thing and they just lost track and put too many votes on the winner. It's like they are trying to save money by not paying the winner and instead, the winner is always themselves. It's like a fraud TV show, but in real life. It's disappointing to see such a great idea being executed in such a terrible way.

Overall, I would not recommend SquadHelp to anyone. It's a great example of how not to run a competition. People are not stupid, and they will question the legitimacy of the results. It's a shame because the concept of the website is interesting, but the execution is poor. I hope they can fix this issue and make the competition fair for everyone.

I gotta say, SquadHelp is a pretty slick operation. They got their process down pat and it runs like a well-oiled machine. The best part is being able to give feedback and work with the creatives to come up with the perfect name for your biz. I got a whole bunch of great ideas to choose from and it really helped me nail down my branding strategy.

But let me tell you, there are a couple things that really grind my gears about this joint. First off, these creatives can submit the same idea to multiple contests at the same time. What's up with that? Seems like a real shady move to me. And then, to top it off, they can withdraw their entries after the contest is over but before a winner is chosen. That's just plain wrong, man.

Here's the thing, I was testing out a name with my peeps and I only had a day or two to do it before the contest closed. I was really digging this one name, but I was afraid someone was gonna snatch it up before I could get my feedback. So I had to make a snap decision and go with it, even though I didn't get all the feedback I wanted. It was a real bummer, let me tell you.

All in all, SquadHelp is a pretty sweet deal. But they gotta tighten up their rules a bit if they want to keep me as a customer.

Yo, so we checked out SquadHelp and we gotta say, we were pretty impressed with the number of entries we got in just the first 24 hours. We were able to chat with some of the Creatives and they kept coming up with more and more ideas for us.

But let's talk about the pricing, man. It was a bit of a headache. We were promised an extra $30 off when we first ordered, but when we went to check out, that option wasn't even there. So we hit up their chat line and the person on the other end was like, "Nah, we don't do $30 off, but we can do $25 off." Like, what's up with that?

And then, after the contest was over, we got an email about a super low price for SquadHelp to file a trademark on the name we chose. But when we went to purchase that service, the link didn't give us the same low price. We reached out to Customer Service and they were like, "Oh, we discontinued that price over a month ago." But like, we literally just got the email with the low price. So we decided not to go with them for the trademark application.

Honestly, this pricing strategy is why we're giving them a lower referral recommendation than we would have otherwise. If SquadHelp changes their tactics, we'd be more likely to give them a higher rating.

So, I gotta say, I had a bit of a mixed experience with SquadHelp. At first, I was pretty frustrated - I followed all their instructions and paid extra for the best creatives, but I was getting a ton of suggestions that just didn't meet my criteria. I mean, I spent a lot of time thinking about what I needed, and it felt like nobody was really paying attention.

But then, the founder actually called me up and offered to apply my previous payment to a managed contest to get me better results. I gotta say, I was impressed - it's not often that you get that kind of personal attention from a company. Unfortunately, even with the managed contest, I still didn't get the name I was looking for. But I appreciated the effort, and I decided to bump up my rating a bit.

Now, I will say that I did have a good experience with 99Designs for our logo - I was happy with the results and paid the winner more than I had planned to. But with SquadHelp, it just didn't work out for me. I felt like a lot of the suggestions were just recycled pet names that the creatives were trying to sell, rather than names that were actually developed for my business. And in the end, it was a waste of time and money.

So, I guess my advice would be to proceed with caution if you're thinking about using SquadHelp. Maybe it'll work out for you, maybe it won't - but just be prepared for the possibility that you might not get the results you're hoping for.

SquadHelp is a website that claims to help people come up with creative names for businesses and products. However, after using the site for a while, I have come to realize that it is not as helpful as it seems. In fact, it seems like the site is hoarding domain names and stealing creative ideas from namers.

One of the biggest issues with SquadHelp is that there are a lot of bogus accounts winning bogus contests. These contests are often administered by SquadHelp for domain parking purposes. The non-winning name entries are forever stored in their database. Sometimes, you and several others randomly win a pittance (like 5 bucks) after the "contest holder" decided not to pick a winner, but it must be their strategy to steal multiple domains for the prize of one domain. You'll never know unless you do some ICANN lookup. Regardless, SquadHelp gets to keep all your entries so that future legit contest holders are notified that your entry has already been submitted to a previous contest and that they are not likely going to pick an entry that didn't impress the previous "contest holders" so that you, the creative, are forced to come up with a new entry.

I have personally experienced this issue with SquadHelp. My entry Pamberton.com in Nov 2020 was registered without me knowing and being rewarded for it. It could definitely be either the contest holder (Scandinavian or American citizen pretending to be from Scandinavia) or someone from Squadhelp admin that registered the domain. I've already known for years that the site puts up some bogus contests on a regular basis, but just because you're a rarely active namer doesn't mean you should be taken advantage of by lowering your percentile rank, delaying the approval to publish your comment in the forum, removing the private message system between the namer and CH, providing an inaccurate domain name availability checker and an incompetent/unresponsive chat support... apart from getting creatively and monetarily ripped off.

Another issue with SquadHelp is that they seem to be deliberately stealing entries from namers. I keep a list of my entries (it's a long list), so it will take more time to go through all of them for domain registration checking. Here are my other Oct-Dec 2020 Squadhelp entries that were DELIBERATELY stolen after my submission by registering the domain without awarding me the total prize: Lactosense.com - stolen in Dec 2020, Eqonomiqs.com - stolen in Dec 2020, Countlounge.com - stolen in Jan 2021, Squiggie.com - stolen in Jan 2021.

To make matters worse, the chat support on SquadHelp is incompetent and unresponsive. I have been banned from logging in to my account and posting about my stolen domains by a stupid Manila-based chat support agent. It seems like SquadHelp is a longstanding fraudulent company that is taking advantage of creatives and namers. I'm trying to find a way to bring action to the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act (ACPA) even though I live in Cebu, Philippines.

I recently joined SquadHelp as a Creative and was excited to participate in their contests. However, my experience with their helpdesk left me feeling frustrated and disrespected. The first issue I encountered was with the submission button in my screening contests, which wasn't working properly. When I reached out for assistance through the chat feature, the helpdesk person responded with an unhelpful article and a condescending attitude. They assumed that the problem was with me, not their website, and it took some back and forth before they finally acknowledged the issue and fixed it.

Despite this rocky start, I was able to participate in live contests and even received positive feedback from contest holders. However, my second encounter with the helpdesk was even worse. I discovered a missing button on a promising contest page and once again reached out for assistance. This time, the helpdesk person was even more dismissive and arrogant, insisting that I hadn't been approved to participate in contests yet, even though I had been participating for several days. They also recommended an article that I had already read and didn't bother to investigate the specific contest I was referring to.

Overall, my experience with SquadHelp's helpdesk was disappointing and disrespectful. As a customer, I expect to be treated with respect and understanding, not condescension and blame. While I was able to participate in some successful contests, the negative interactions with the helpdesk ultimately led me to deactivate my account. I hope that SquadHelp can improve their customer service in the future and treat their customers with the respect they deserve.

So, I tried out SquadHelp for my business naming needs and I gotta say, it was quite the experience. I got a whopping 1,000 entries for my competition, which was pretty impressive. However, upon closer inspection, I realized that most of the answers were just surface level and lacked any real depth or meaning. It was like they were all just trying to be clever without really understanding what my business was all about.

After much deliberation, I did end up selecting a winner, but I'm still not entirely sold on using it as my business name. I feel like to really get a name that truly captures the essence of my business, it's going to take a lot more than just luck. It's going to require some serious brainstorming and digging deep to really understand what my business is all about and what message I want to convey.

Overall, I think SquadHelp is a great platform for getting a lot of different ideas and perspectives, but it's important to remember that not all of them are going to be winners. It takes time and effort to really find the perfect name, but with the right mindset and approach, I believe it's possible. So if you're looking for a quick fix or an easy solution, SquadHelp might not be the answer. But if you're willing to put in the work, it can definitely be a valuable resource.

SquadHelp is a website where you can submit your logo designs for businesses. It's a pretty cool concept, but there are some things that could be improved. One thing that I found frustrating was that there are no clear guidelines for how the logos should look. This can be really confusing for designers who are trying to create something that will be approved. I submitted a few designs and some of them were rejected without any explanation. It's really frustrating to put in all that time and effort and not even know why your design was rejected.

Another thing that I found frustrating was that logos are not easy to make. They take a lot of time and effort to create something that is unique and stands out. If you're a designer who doesn't use a template for your logos, I'd suggest not wasting your time with SquadHelp. It's just not worth it.

Overall, I think SquadHelp has a lot of potential, but there are definitely some things that could be improved. If they could provide more clear guidelines for what they're looking for in a logo design, it would make the process a lot easier for designers. Additionally, if they could provide more feedback on why designs are rejected, it would be a lot less frustrating for designers who are trying to create something great.

I gotta say, I was pretty stoked when I found SquadHelp. I mean, who wouldn't want to get help coming up with a sweet name for their biz? So I jumped right in and signed up for the GOLD contest, which promised trademark support. I figured that was a pretty important feature, since I didn't want to end up with a name that I couldn't even use.

Long story short, I ended up picking a name that I thought was perfect. But then, when I tried to register the trademark, I found out that someone else had already snagged it. What a bummer! I mean, I spent good money on that contest, and now I can't even use the name I picked.

So here's my advice: if you're gonna use SquadHelp, make sure you talk to a lawyer before you get too attached to any names. I mean, the trademark search is supposed to be part of the GOLD package, but obviously it's not foolproof. And let's face it, you don't want to waste your time and money on a name that you can't even use. So do yourself a favor and double-check everything before you commit.

into thinking that SquadHelp is a good platform for creatives.

I mean, seriously, what's the point of joining a platform that doesn't appreciate your ideas and efforts? It's like throwing your money and time down the drain. And let's not forget the disappointment that comes with it. It's like a punch in the gut, but worse.

I don't know about you, but I joined SquadHelp with high hopes. I thought it would be a great way to showcase my creativity and earn some extra cash. But boy, was I wrong. All my ideas were rejected, and my domain names were deemed unworthy. It's like they didn't even bother to give me a chance.

And it's not just me. I did some research, and I found out that many other creatives have had the same experience. It's like SquadHelp has a vendetta against us or something. I don't know what their deal is, but it's not cool.

So, my advice to you is to stay away from SquadHelp if you're a creative. It's not worth the time, effort, and money. There are other platforms out there that appreciate and value your ideas. Don't let SquadHelp bring you down.

to Squadhelp's platform, I was able to interact with a lot of creatives and get a lot of entries for my project. However, I did notice that some of the entries were not up to the mark and seemed rushed. Maybe if Squadhelp offered a better revenue split, the creatives would be more motivated to put in more effort and come up with better entries.

I must say that the platform is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. I was able to create my project and set the guidelines very easily. The dashboard is also very well designed and gives you a lot of information about your project. However, I did notice a few spelling errors in some of the entries, which made me question the quality of the creatives.

Overall, I think Squadhelp is a good platform to use if you are looking for a lot of entries for your project. However, if you are looking for quality entries, you might have to pay a higher amount and be more selective in your shortlisting process. I would recommend Squadhelp to anyone who is looking for a lot of options for their project, but be prepared to spend some time going through the entries and shortlisting the ones that meet your requirements.

My experience with SquadHelp had some issues that made the process a bit frustrating. One of the main issues I encountered was the inability to send pictures to the creatives. This made it difficult to convey exactly what I wanted in terms of colors and design. I found that the creatives often didn't understand what I was trying to say in text, which led to a lot of back and forth and incorrect revisions.

It can be frustrating to have to explain what you want over and over again, especially when you're paying for a service. I ended up paying extra to use one creative's color because most of the other creatives weren't using the correct color. I also gave two bonuses to another creative to use their design, but still didn't get exactly what I wanted due to the communication issue.

Overall, I think SquadHelp has a lot of potential, but there are definitely some areas that could be improved. Being able to send pictures to the creatives would be a huge help, as would improving the communication between clients and creatives. Despite these issues, I was able to get a decent design in the end, but it took a lot more time and effort than I had anticipated.

My experience with SquadHelp was not great at all. I wouldn't recommend this service to anyone. It was a complete waste of my money and time. The customer service agents I spoke with were not helpful at all. They seemed more like salespeople who were just trying to convince me to use their services. I was given false information by a couple of them, which was really frustrating.

The names they came up with were not good at all. Most of them were either already trademarked or the domain was already taken. It was really disappointing to see that the names they provided were not even close to what I was looking for. It was such a pointless and useless service.

I would advise anyone looking for a naming service to find a different company to use. SquadHelp is definitely not the way to go. I regret using their service and would not recommend it to anyone. It was a terrible experience and I wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I went through.

In conclusion, do not use SquadHelp. There are better options out there that will provide you with better service and better results. Don't waste your time and money on this company.

SquadHelp is a website that has gone through some major changes lately. They are always trying to improve their standards, which is great for those who want to sell their domains on their marketplace. However, there are some things that can be frustrating for sellers. For instance, if you list a domain on their site, you have to wait for 7 days before you can take it down. This can be a problem if you change your mind about selling the domain or if you find a buyer elsewhere.

Another thing that can be annoying is that they will ask you multiple times if you have sold your domain. This can be a bit of a hassle, especially if you have already sold it and don't want to keep getting reminders. Additionally, they will randomly kick you out of certain events and promotions, which can be frustrating if you were looking forward to participating in them.

For example, I had previously entered the "Seller Marketplace", which was a place for domain resellers. However, they randomly decided to increase their standards for entering this marketplace, which resulted in many people being kicked out. They then told us that we had to meet their new criteria, which was a bit of a joke. It's understandable that they want to maintain a high standard, but it can be frustrating for sellers who have already put in a lot of effort.

Despite these issues, SquadHelp can still be a good place to sell your domains. However, there are other sites like Dan, Sedo, and Afternic that offer better deals and are more user-friendly. So, if you're looking to sell your domains, it's worth checking out these other sites before committing to SquadHelp.

I'm a business owner and I wanted to share my experience with SquadHelp. I decided to go for the platinum package because I was hoping to find a new business name that would really make my brand stand out.

I provided a detailed brief that included everything from my branding archetype to my target audience and the emotional appeal I was aiming for. I thought that with all this information, SquadHelp would be able to come up with some great ideas.

Unfortunately, out of the 2,100 submissions I received, there were only six names that were even remotely usable. And even those were pretty poor. I spent countless hours messaging contestants and following up with them, but it just wasn't worth it.

In the end, my team found that we could get much better results by using a service like namelix.com. They seemed to understand our brand much better and we were able to come up with some really great ideas.

I have to say, I was really disappointed with SquadHelp. It seemed like they just didn't understand my brand at all. I would definitely recommend that you save your money and keep brainstorming yourself.

And don't even get me started on their support staff. They were completely incompetent and couldn't even answer basic questions. Overall, I would say that SquadHelp is a waste of time and money.

Squadhelp, let me tell you, is not a company to be trusted. They sell coins to you and then reject your domains with fake reviews from so-called experts. It's a scam, plain and simple. Even if your domains have a good appraisal value, they will always show 0/13 expert reviews. It's all just an automated process to reject 92% of the names randomly. Don't believe me? Check out their inventory or domains that are already listed and approved - they could be of worse quality than the ones that were rejected for your account.

The review process is a complete joke. If you submit a manual review for your names, it will never be attended to. You'll just have to wait for weeks and then months without any progress. And if you contact their customer support, they'll just give you a copy/paste reply. It's frustrating and a waste of time.

I strongly advise you to stay away from these fraudsters. Don't waste your hard-earned money, time, and energy on them. Trust me, you'll only end up with an unwanted headache.
