Brightspot 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

Software Advice offers objective insights based on verified user reviews and independent product and market research. When our advisors match you to a software provider, we may earn a referral fee.

How Software Advice ensures transparency

Software Advice lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Users can talk to our advisors for free to receive software recommendations matching their needs. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to reach users interested in their products.

How Software Advice verifies reviews

Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Independent research methodology

Researchers at Software Advice use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or talk to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

Pros:

Powerful software that can be configured and customized to meet your needs. Extremely easy to use and intuitive.

Cons:

The UI feels a little dated/clunky. The rich text editor could be more modern, like what you find with Google Docs. Some HTML doesn't work as expected.

Brightspot has a feature that allows me to schedule pages for publishing. It facilitates my work when I need to meet a deadline.

Sometimes I am not able to publish some pages or create the pages to look like the way our team wants. Brightspot doesn’t offer much support, so I need to figure it out myself.
