## Reviews

### "Carta review" — 5.0/5

> **Luke** | *18 January 2026* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very useful tool for any kind of meeting management, the learning curve is present but not too demanding
> 
> **Cons**: Essentially, it is a very useful platform but the learning curve takes some getting used to, but help through the platform improves this
> 
> Very positive, I would recommend this to other users looking for something similar to help out their organisation

-----

### "Great tool, however one flaw" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *3 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how we can get updates based on several other clients' comp data. This allows us to remain competitive.
> 
> **Cons**: I would love to see historical data. Ie: With existing employees who are brought in at an IC\_ or MGR\_ level, a couple of years ago, it would be helpful to see where they were brought in within the band (XX%ile) back when the market was showing that historical data.

-----

### "Really thorough tool, but sometimes get lost in the weeds" — 4.0/5

> **Sarah** | *10 July 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The employee experience in Carta is really straightforward (and offers educational resources we love), and the reporting functionality for administrators is very thorough.
> 
> **Cons**: Equity administration can be very confusing, and I sometimes find myself getting lost in the admin portal. Additionally, the Rippling integration is helpful but not quite as flushed out as I think it could be.
> 
> Carta has been the only equity administration tool we've used as a startup for nearly 10 years, and our finance team and employees have been extremely satisfied.

-----

### "Great, but it can scale up more" — 4.0/5

> **Joon** | *10 March 2025* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As start up COO, Carta has been saving lots of time to grant stocks or stock options. Before using Carta, we always had to go through the attorney and it was hard to track.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be great if Carta has option to sell or exercise stock options directly. Then, it automatically sends the emails to existing shareholders and among them, if there are who are interested, they have options to purchase
> 
> Overall experience with Carta is great, but it would be great if Carta becomes more than just tracking stocks/stock options tool

-----

### "Avoid Carta at all cost" — 1.0/5

> **Samuel** | *14 May 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing to like about this firm. Avoid at all cost. Toxic firm
> 
> **Cons**: Carta has the most disregard for their clients. They are the worst at client service, show no interest in providing reporting or answer any questions. Overall toxic firm that should be avoided at all cost
> 
> Horrible experience - incompetent staff with no interest in trying to help
