What is your take on badges?

SOAX became a leader in G2's "Proxy Network" category! And got a new shiny "Leader" badge.

So yeah, if you need top-notch residential proxies that get shit done, you are always welcomed here.

But it is actually an intro to the main discussion

Discussion:

Do you pay attention to badges when looking for tools?

So this is my attempt to figure out if the promo assets (like G2 badges) that are aimed to reinforce the quality of the product are performing their function.

Are the number of reviews and overall rating on G2 or TrustPilot important?
When you see badges like "Leader", "Users love Us", "Best Performer", do you have more trust in the product?

Or maybe all of this does not matter to you? Or even puts you off?

Do not hold back!
