What 96 Arbolus experts think of Clay

The NPS trend is highly positive, with most scores in the 8–10 range and very few detractors. Renewal intent is broadly strong, especially among mid-to-high spenders and users embedded in operational roles. Stickiness is underpinned by long-term users (>1 year) reporting process efficiency and measurable outcomes. Key feedback themes are strong workflow automation, flexibility, and above-average data accuracy, countered by mentions of a steep learning curve and credit management complexity.Overall Customer Sentiment: Positive
