I only know Capterra and TrustRadius but it certainly works similar to TrustRadius. Quora works more like a posting site where you can get information, but Capterra organizes it better while Quora is really hard to identify the pros and cons sometimes.

Its a simple and easy to use tool, you can get set-up and your product published very quickly - its also copies this information to its other review sites. If you have a SaaS product, it should be on your list to sort your Capterra listing out.

Despite having honest evaluations, a fantastic community, and a strong strategy for the market, SourceForge falls short in terms of the services they offer. Even for the best technological solutions, there are not many reviews. The majority of member evaluations are brief and don't go into great detail regarding the advantages and disadvantages of the product.
