What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“One of the most established platforms, offering extensive directory coverage and real-time updates... Yext and Uberall are preferred for multi-location or enterprise businesses” Mistral Small · Local listings · comparative prompt · first choice
“If you have hundreds of locations and need real-time data control: Choose Yext (or Uberall, its primary enterprise competitor).” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Local listings · comparative prompt · first choice
“Yext: The enterprise gold standard. Highly powerful, robust API, excellent local pages product, but usually the most expensive.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Local listings · scale prompt · first choice
“Yext is recommended for enterprise scale, and it's built for enterprise and mid-market brands with international locations” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Local listings · direct prompt · first choice
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Contract and billing problems ... Reputation.com and Yext are the two most consistently flagged *major* platforms in my research.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Reviews · negative prompt · hard negative
“### 1. Yext (High Risk) ... You should be cautious of Yext for the following reasons: ... "Holding Listings Hostage"” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Reviews · negative prompt · hard negative
“Why You Should Likely Avoid Yext (For Now) ... it is usually not recommended for a mid-sized B2B company.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Local listings · paraphrase prompt · hard negative
“High Caution: Yext ... Expensive pricing ... "Rented" listing model ... Trustpilot rating: Only 1.6/5 ("Bad")” Kimi K2 · Local listings · negative prompt · hard negative

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page yext.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. Of its titles that name a category, most name SEO (38); 0 name its categories the models place it in. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.

Claim this page
Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Yext's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Yext, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Yext by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
- where Yext is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
- the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
- its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
- who was chosen in the answers that did not name Yext, and every reason the record gives;
- a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
- one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.
