## Reviews

### "Simply the Best" — 5.0/5

> **Mark** | *15 December 2025* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent all round credit agency. 
I particularly like the experiment function.
Total ease of use with excellent online help if required.
> 
> **Cons**: Can be a little slow updating accounts filed at companies house.
The websites that are attached are hit and miss.
> 
> Perfect for a quick dive in dive out credit check, similarly perfect for an in depth credit check.
Excellent customer service if required.

### "Companywatch Makes Performing Due Diligence on third party Suppliers a Doddle" — 5.0/5

> **Carl** | *08 April 2024* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of use of the platform. Everything is clearly laid out and its a very easy system to navigate. Some of the information can be obtained from other services, but company watch has everything easily at hand.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing I don't like about company watch is the way in which I have to log in with three pieces of information. Company/Username/Password. Are all those strictly necessary? Email and p/w would suffice.
> 
> I often visit company watch numerous times a day as all the information I need when making a supplier based decision is easy to locate, meaningful and up to date. In fact I often use this when third parties are collating information on one of our group of companies as its just so easy to locate everything.

### "Intuitive to use" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *15 December 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very quick and easy to use for background checks on companies and Directors - this helps identify dubious actors very quickly.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing to complain about . Perhaps a bigger flag on the first screen/page to warn that companies are not complying with due dates for filing documents, and a flag warning that year end dates have been changed by 1 day ( which is a major red warning sign )
> 
> New data from Companies House is available quickly, and the interface has a logical and informative feel, which means you don't end up going down rabbit holes to source information that you are looking for.

### "Review of Company Watch services - for Commercial purposes" — 5.0/5

> **Eleanor** | *24 April 2024* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is possible to get a download of all published UK registered entities.
> 
> **Cons**: I have nothing to report here and the question is N/A to me
> 
> Easy to navigate and get risk rating reports for a range of entities, can check the group structure of suppliers, provides a link to reports on the company you are searching.

### "Solid data partner" — 5.0/5

> **Jamie** | *18 April 2024* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use. It is easy to access the necessary data. It's also great being able to upload my risk portfolio for monitoring purposes.
> 
> **Cons**: Companywatch Ireland seems less consistent than UK in terms of accuracy of data.
