Panjiva Reviews Summary

Panjiva's reputation is marked by a duality of strong customer service and significant privacy concerns. Many users appreciate the intuitive database and the helpfulness of customer support, praising the platform's utility for market analysis and supplier sourcing. However, a recurring theme is the dissatisfaction regarding the unauthorized publication of personal and proprietary information, leading to accusations of unethical practices. Additionally, some customers express frustration over refund policies and perceived lack of transparency. Overall, while Panjiva offers valuable tools and responsive service, its approach to data privacy remains a critical area for improvement.

Breach of privacy
February 5, 2021

I've contacted your team via *******@spglobal.com and *******@panjiva.com now at least 5 times to take down my personal information form your website and it's still live. Please remove my information as a matter of urgency. This is not any business information, this is personal information including my phone number, full name, and home address you publicly display. I have never given you permission to display this information and I don't even know who you are.
Please take this information down now.

This looks like an empty package scalping scheme. I have never heard of this company before and received an empty package from them. Seems they are trying to boost their numbers by buying stolen personal information and unsolicited shipping of empty boxes. I would´t trust them if I were even looking for such a company, which I am not.

SLEAZY
January 19, 2020

I believe companies such as this that make money off of handing out (public records or not) MY hard earned
Proprietary information are unfortunate leeches. Blood, sweat, tears and a lot of money was put into finding my own quality manufacturer... and I find it on your site for sale. Shame on you all. The low ball people who are looking to rip this information off should also have had to find it them selves the hard way. You're all a bunch of scum bags. Where's MY CUT of the subscription money you get paid to share my information? Why was my permission not asked? While 'technically legal' this is totally unethical and I could NOT have a lower opinion of your company.

Scam company
February 25, 2019

This company are a bunch of scammers and law breachers. They suposely sell you access of private bussines data of companies and individuals, that they get for free from US goverment agencies, and that anyone can get from. If you suscribe you will find pretty basic information of names imports and value of imports with no datails at all. If you request a refund of your money you will never get it. Stay away from this company. In many countries (like in Europe) this company could be sued and pay millions for exposing and posting online private and personal data of companies without their knowledge.

Unethical
July 22, 2018

Panjiva is publishing my company's import/export data without my permission. They are using my company's name to enrich themselves. Additionally, they do a great job at manipulating their online ratings. Read reviews with caution. Take the good reviews with a grain of salt.

Great service!
June 17, 2018

I did not know what to expect from the service when I first signed up however they quickly scheduled a training session and made the service completely clear in terms of its capabilities. I was impressed by the expediency of the follow up. Great overall service!

My company subscribes to Panjiva's US import data to help understand what our particular market looks like. Their database is intuitive and easy to use. Furthermore, if we ever have questions, our dedicated customer service person at Panjiva is easily available to answer any questions and give our team pointers on how to use the database more efficiently. It's an expensive subscription, but if you use it right it's very powerful.

When we first contacted Panjiva, our company was worried because the information they were presenting about us was quite delicate. Then we realized that it is a two-way street, and started using the platform to track down our competitors. It's a powerful and useful tool to find new suppliers and new potential buyers.
A great plus is their costumer service. They could improve their filter tools.

Unfortunately I asked for 1 month of a professional plan and they automatically suscribed me to the next month. This feature should be fixed, as a customer I should be able to decide if I want to continue using the service.

Edit: after writing this review they reimbursed the aditional month. This is the reason why I changed the overall rating.

Jose, I'm really sorry you had a bad experience! We try to make it very clear that you're signing up for a subscription, but I'll take another look at our messaging to make sure we're getting it right.

However, if your card was charged and you didn't want to renew, please contact us right away for a refund! You can reach out to me directly at josh+sj@panjiva.com.
