In its favor
Why people choose LocaliQ
The signal that keeps LocaliQ on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Gannett parent company gives access to media inventory and local market relationships unavailable through pure-play competitors, according to deep_facts research on LocaliQ's positioning.
AI lead management with Dash includes automated lead scoring, follow-ups, and AI agents (Voice, SMS, chat) in a single platform, per G2 platform descriptions.
Industry-specific solutions across 1,100+ verticals with tailored campaign approaches, a key differentiator cited in competitive analysis.
Scale of 506,000+ clients and $641M revenue provides confidence for buyers who want an established vendor over a startup.
G2 reviews document lead costs far exceeding industry benchmarks, with one small business reporting $3,000 per lead versus a $100 industry average.
Multiple reviews cite non-responsiveness from account teams and steep learning curves with inadequate support documentation.
Trustpilot and G2 reviews report broken promises on delivery timelines and lead volume, with customers feeling misled on campaign performance commitments.
The service-based pricing model creates financial strain for SMBs, with reviews noting high costs relative to the leads actually delivered.

Pricing tiers
LocaliQ pricing overview
LocaliQ operates a service-based revenue model, selling marketing execution rather than software access. Packages combine technology (Dash, listings, SEO, ads) with human account management. No public pricing tiers exist—costs are negotiated per engagement, which creates opaque budgeting and long-term commitment expectations.

What gets migrated
LocaliQ object support
Object-by-object support for LocaliQ migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Leads (Dash)
Mapping requiredLeads are the primary object in Dash by LocaliQ, with AI-scored attributes, engagement timestamps, and lifecycle stages. We map these to the destination's contact or deal objects, preserving the AI_score as a custom field and the original lead source attribution.
Contacts
Mapping requiredMarketing contacts with associated company references and custom fields. LocaliQ's contact schema includes standard fields plus Dash-specific AI attributes that require explicit mapping to destination equivalents.
Companies/Accounts
Mapping requiredBusiness accounts linked to contacts and campaign associations. We preserve the company-contact relationship graph and any custom properties attached to the account record.
Campaigns
Mapping requiredMarketing campaigns across channels (search, social, display). We export campaign metadata, budget allocations, and status, though performance metrics are sourced from connected ad platforms directly where possible.
Pipeline Stages
Mapping requiredDash uses pipeline stages to track lead progression. We map stage names and ordering, noting that custom stages may require manual confirmation at the destination.
AI Agents (Voice, SMS, Chat)
Mapping requiredAI agent configurations including greeting scripts, routing rules, and SMS templates are stored as configuration objects. We export the agent definitions and re-apply settings at the destination platform.
Marketing Automation Workflows
Mapping requiredAutomation sequences and trigger conditions exist in LocaliQ's platform. We document workflow logic and recreate equivalent automations at the destination, as workflow export is not natively supported.
Business Listings
Mapping requiredDirectory citation data across dozens of platforms. We export listing details, verification status, and citation URLs, but the syndication mechanism does not transfer—listings must be re-verified at the destination.
Reviews
Mapping requiredReview data including ratings, content, dates, and response history from the LocaliQ dashboard. We export the full review record and any pending response drafts.
Ad Account Connections
Mapping requiredReferences to connected Google Ads and Yelp Ads accounts are stored. We document the connection metadata and advise re-authenticating ad integrations at the destination platform directly.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredLocaliQ supports custom properties on contacts, leads, and companies. We inventory all custom fields, their data types, and populated values for destination mapping.
Attachments
Not in this platformFile attachments associated with leads or contacts are not accessible via the LocaliQ API. We advise customers to export files manually from the dashboard prior to migration cutoff.
