How to strongly increase your efficiency in fighting counterfeits
Really positive, we are achieving exactly what we were aiming at, and even more.
PROS- The clarity of the platform - The efficiency of the AI - The availibility of the Account Manager
CONSThe lack of info when links are denied ; you need to ask your account manager why, which is not possible for all of them when dealing with thousands of links.

Red Points Helped Us Remove 3,000 Counterfeits
Since starting with Red Points about a year and half ago, we have removed over 3,000 fake listings of Mighty Mug. The swift removal of these knockoffs allows us to protect our brand, our sales margins and ensures that customers buying Mighty Mug are getting an authentic product, backed by our warranty.
PROSThe best thing about Red Points is that it is constantly searching the major e-commerce marketplace looking for counterfeit or knockoff items. Once Red Points locates one of these listings, it is incredibly easy, literally the click of your mouse to have the item removed from eBay, Alibaba, Wish, Amazon or any of the other major marketplaces around the world. We spend 5-15 minutes per day on Red Points and it has been a game-changer for us. We no longer have to choose between growing our business and combatting knockoffs, we can do both.
CONSWe love Red Points and do not have any complaints about the system.
Reason for choosing Red Points
Prior to Red Points, we tried combatting knockoffs directly as well as with our lawyer but found the process of searching each of the major -e-commerce sites to be tedious, time-consuming and very expensive. Since each e-commerce platform has a unique way of removing the knockoff listing, there was no way to streamline the takedown process.

Hi, Jayme! Thank you so much for your review! We love having you as a client, and we hope to continue protecting your innovative brand for many more years. Have a nice day, Red Points Team.

WASTE of TIME/ MONEY/ RESOURCES
AWFUL. Hated every painful day of it. I've written at least 5 emails to cancel my service and each time they reply that I'm in a contract and they don't cancel me.
PROSNone! They stopped talking to me as soon as I stated that I was upset. I never heard from my sales guy again. I got moved to the manager and they disappeared. They like to still send me bills though. Useless and awful service. Don't sign up!!!!!!!!! They take your money and give you a crappy product. I would give negative 10 stars if I could.
CONSThey are not responsive. They know I am an upset customer yet they just stopped communicating with me, yet they still send the bill. Awful service. You're trapped in a contract and they just forget about you. Useless service. I have better luck searching for things myself than they can find me. Don't waste your time or money

fantastic option for fighting copies of products!
Not only does it give us the confidence that copies of our products are being found and dealt with worldwide, but it has also enhanced our relationships with our distributors offshore. They can see we are doing our best to fight this problem for them in their territories.
PROSRed Points online dashboard is very simple to use and has strong back-end reporting. It is a very quick process to check daily and approve or remove potential copies of our products that they find. The customer service team is excellent even though they are in Europe and we are in New Zealand - has never been a problem for us. It has definitely helped us in our fight against copies worldwide and is great value for money....FAR cheaper than a lawyer!
CONSNothing - it is a fantastic product and service.
Reasons for switching to Red Points
Cost initially. However over time we have seen Red Points has a fair quicker and greater reach than lawyers do...

RedPoints Review
RedPoints has been vital to the removal of counterfeit and inauthentic versions of an infant teether toy that we produce, along with several variants of trademark infringement. We have pulled nearly 2,000 individual product listings thanks to RedPoints.
PROSWe enjoyed the streamlined interface/UI, responsive team that we can e-mail and get replies from quickly, and a generally quick and painless removal process of infringing content/listings.
CONSThere is a lack of transparency on when/why listings are not removed from online marketplaces. The bots that pull in infringing listings often pull in your own brand's content, so manual monitoring is a must. Listings can also come back online, which I have been told that RedPoints is working on a way to find and monitor this. Until then, if a listing comes back online, it is up to us to find and report it manually.
Vendor Response
Hi, Jeffrey Thank you very much for your comment. We are really happy having The Manhattan Toy Company as a client. We've taken your feedback on board, and we will be investigating the issues you have been encountering. We continually improve our technology to effectively automate the process of detection and enforcement of online IP infringements. Thank you so much, Red Points team

Every Brand Needs Redpoints
It's not just stopping counterfeit sales that matters. If somebody is using a poor quality fake garment in public, that projects a bad image towards would be customers thus damaging the brand deeply.
PROSWe have been using Redpoints for many years and from the very first day I have been amazed at just how efficient the team are at removing counterfeit posts on platforms we didn't know existed. As a brand owner it is imperative that I protect my brand along with any copyright designs to not only prevent improper sales but to protect brand integrity as I do not want sub standard products bearing my brands name entering the market as it can put others off buying the brand. Redpoints helps take care of all of this.
CONSThere is nothing to dislike about Redpoints. The system is slick, the staff very polite and professional and the counterfeit problem is dealt with in the most pain free fashion for us.

Protect your company NOW
When we moved into RED POINTS, we were trying to fight against thousand of re-sellers in a really manual and prosaic way. We doubled our HR resources, and even within this, results did not come. Since we moved into RED POINTS, we have been able to remove >120 MM EUR in parts value from internet from non-authorized sellers, cleaning the market and protecting our dealers and end-customers
PROSEasy to use, to look-up for any past case to follow-up. Monthly customized reports and possibility to support on any specific need or case.
CONSTo focus on the offline side, as it's key also on a business strategy and it open the door towards competition.
Reason for choosing Red Points
Because it was easy to use and people at RED POINTS are really flexible with all our needs.

Highly polished and effective software with great customer support
We found a great deal of success with the software so it certainly does what it claims to however the customer support is also fantastic and really helps us to get the very most out of RedPoints
PROSThe UI is well laid out and easy to navigate. All the main functions you will use most often are convenient and simple to operate. You can easily work through a large number of items and generate analytics whenever you need. The software algorithms work well after a short learning period and continue to crawl the net looking for new matches.
CONSGenerating excel files with metrics of my choosing could be easier however this feature sees improvement in updates

Efficient removal of infringing listings
In the past it was a days work to gather infringing listings and reporting them trought different portals. Now it is centralized and takes minutes to confirm infringements and leave the rest of the work to Red Points. The overall amount of infringements have declined as the listings are removed before retailers in key markets have a chance to purchase the products.
PROSEasy to use for its main purpose; monitoring and removing infringing listings on global platforms. Red Points efficiently scans these platforms and quickly has infringing listings removed. They are constantly developing their service and looking for new ways to improve. The customer service is also great.
CONSSome of the more advanced tools are not very intuitive and can be difficult to use. All the information is available, and if I have problems I can always ask for help.

Great product that has helped save millions in lost revenue
Was easy to implement, easy to use and support is amazing. This has been a huge benefit to our company and I have recommended to several others in my industry.
PROSEase of use, the dashboard and customer service. The end result and economic impact is a massive bonus.
CONSI have zero complaints. I have had it be down a couple times so If I had to complain about something, it would be that. But it's back up and running quickly.

Global reach and time saving!
For us the reason to use an online platform was to have better insight in the global infringement problem, to have one place where all online infringements are tackled. Redpoints has stood up to that challenge, also they have an excellent customer success team with quick reply to questions and open to discuss new options or further tweak our joint IP efforts.
PROSIt is easy to use and is a life saver in terms of time and money. It makes the enormous amount of global online infringements manageable and yearly progress is visible with a few clicks. We include about five different designs and two brand names in the platform, Information is gathered per asset, so progress and success rate can be viewed for specific items.
CONSI am missing a management report: to easily select information from the platform, which is then combined into a PDF for internal reporting.
Reasons for switching to Red Points
Our previous solution included more manual work and did not offer an online platform or much transparency on progress.

Buyer Beware the Time Investment Required
A Brand Protection Software that is Only as Useful as You Make it - if you have time to dedicate to making sure their algorithm is working, it will pay off. This is not set-and-forget
PROSThe service/software can be effective - we definitely saw takedowns that could have been damaging to our e-commerce business if the users were allowed to continue selling their products.
CONSAs with any algorithmic tool, it only gets better with input. If you don't have an employee to monitor and give near-constant feedback on the results, the investment (potentially thousands a month) is wasted. We ended up with e-mails from multiple businesses stating that Red Points had been in touch about a violation of our trademarks/patents and the products targeted had nothing to do with our marks and registrations. To be fair, we used a set-it-and-forget it approach to this tool when we should have been a great deal more active with it.

So it makes it easier to protect your brand and consumers in a time-efficient manner.
