A powerful tool for deep research and quick
Reviewed on Aug 15, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how Perplexity provides detailed, expanded answers with proper references The deep search feature is especially awesome It goes much deeper into a topic and provides well researched and comprehensive answers instead of just giving a basic response.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the search takes long especially when I just need a quick answer. Also there are times when the information provided isn’t completely accurate so I still need to double check the answers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity makes research much easier for me by bringing information from different sources into one place. Instead of spending a lot of time searching through multiple websites I can get a detailed answer with references quickly. It’s especially useful when I need to understand a topic deeply or find reliable information for my work.

Clean UX and Prompt, Reliable Research with Perplexity
Reviewed on Aug 12, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The best way I use Perplexity is for research, and I also rely on the news resources I get after doing a search. I trust Perplexity’s data to be about 99% accurate. I feel the information Perplexity shows is really helpful for research and for making progress.
Apart from this, the UX is clean, the usability is easy, and the results are prompt. This AI tool really changed how I used to do research.

What do you dislike about the product?
I feel if perplexity could have taken the approch to be more versatile with AI responses, that could have been more useful. I can get a good amount of research data but it is not enough to put that data into any proper reserach papers or blogs. I have to rephrase it via other AI tools so that it can be appealing to user/ readers. The cost is decent, but I would like more features and more versatile output if I am going with that pricing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used to do research manually via Google, and it took hours. Perplexity helps me with that research part, cutting down 80% of the time by providing accurate data.

What do you dislike about the product?
Dependency on external AI models and high operational costs are clear drawbacks. As a Pro subscriber, I’ve also run into issues when switching between models, along with low-quality sources at times and fluctuating rate limits. Compared with ChatGPT-style tools, Perplexity feels more limited in conversational depth and isn’t as strong for creative writing tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perplexity bridges the gap between traditional search engines accurate but fragmented and AI chatbots conversational but unverifiable, giving you direct answers with the receipts to back them up.
