Reputology no longer exists as a separate product — reputology.com redirects to gatherup.com after the acquisition. If you arrived here searching for Reputology, you’re actually evaluating GatherUp.
Comparison
SignalRoute vs GatherUp
GatherUp is the result of Reputology being acquired and folded into Traject’s GatherUp stack. Reputology.com now redirects to gatherup.com. Strong multi-location monitoring across 100+ sites; the request side is more campaign-driven than QR-and-go.

How we're different
Why SignalRoute exists
The differences that matter when you're actually choosing.
Routing vs. monitoring
GatherUp’s strength is monitoring reviews after they land — sentiment analysis, topic tagging, alerts. Ours is routing customers to leave reviews in the first place. Different jobs; we cost a third as much for the routing job.
Single bill, all locations
We charge $30 for the first location and $15 each additional, on one bill. GatherUp charges $60–$99 per location depending on count, with separate Listings Hub at $40/mo/location.
QR-first vs. campaign-first
We hand you a QR and a link. GatherUp expects you to configure email/SMS templates, set NPS survey logic, configure alert routing, and build widgets — then send customers through campaigns.
No NPS / sentiment overhead
If you wanted NPS surveys and sentiment analysis, GatherUp is built for it. If you just want more Google reviews, that machinery is overhead. We skip it.

Where GatherUp shines
- Multi-location dashboards built for restaurants, retail, fitness chains (Hillstone, Gold's Gym, House of Blues are marquee customers)
- Monitoring across 100+ review sites
- NPS surveys, AI reply templates, sentiment analysis, and topic tagging
Where GatherUp falls short
- The Reputology → GatherUp rebrand created confusion for customers searching for the original product
- Originally built for monitoring; the request-and-collect flow remains more campaign-heavy than a single QR-and-link
- Per-location pricing scales painfully past 10 locations
- $99/mo single-location tier is 3× SignalRoute for monitoring most SMBs don’t use

Bottom line

GatherUp is for monitoring and analyzing reviews you already have. SignalRoute is for getting more positive ones in the first place. If you want both, ours is much cheaper for the routing job and you can add a dedicated monitoring tool only if you actually need it.

This is the same compliance posture BrightLocal and other reputable tools take.
