Ease Of Use

TruthFinder Vs. Spokeo Usability

TruthFinder

When you open the TruthFinder website, the first thing that you see is a search box using which you can start looking for people right away.

So the website is quite easy to use, plain and simple making it easy for users to get the hang of it.

You can easily do your first search and navigate through without looking for steps on what to do next.

However, the only thing lacking here is that you cannot see the pricing package on TruthFinder before doing a search.

Spokeo

Even in Spokeo, the first thing that you see when you open the website is the search bar.

You can do your search using the person’s name, address, phone number, etc. And as soon you enter the details, Spoeko will start scanning for results, and before unlocking the results, it will ask you to pay a small price.

So even Spokeo’s website is user-friendly and extremely easy to navigate through.

When it comes to usability, we found Spokeo much faster in response, and also, it didn’t prompt a lot of questions.

Winner: Spokeo

You will then be redirected to the page where you can choose the package you want and make payment accordingly. After this, you will be signed up and will be able to make searches. It is that simple!

Spokeo

Even Spokeo has a straightforward signup process. You just have to tap on the signup button in the top right corner when entering the website.

Then you will be directed to the payment page immediately, where you can choose from the available plans and pay using four options.

We love how Spokeo offers four payment options, unlike TruthFinder, which has only two options.

The signup process of Spokeo is much faster, and with minimum clicks, you can create your account. TruthFinder also has a straightforward signup process, but it requires more clicks to reach the final signup page, and additionally, it only offers two payment options.

As soon as you enter the website, you can see the search box with different options to make a search placed right above it. So with minimum clicks, you can get started with your search.

And what we love about TruthFinder the most is that it has guides and answers to frequently asked questions.

Also, at the bottom, you can see all the kinds of reports it offers, making it easy to set expectations.

Spokeo

Even Spokeo can be navigated easily thanks to its uncluttered dashboard. Here too, you can find the search box as soon as you enter the website.

However, unlike TruthFinder, it does not reveal the kind of reports you can find right at the bottom of the page.

Both platforms offer easy navigation, but TruthFinder seems more transparent about the reports and features that it offers, which is why TruthFinder is the winner here.

Winner: TruthFinder
