Download.com staffAugust 27, 2015

For U.S.-focused advertisers, at least, The Classified Connection makes it a bit easier to submit listings to several Web sites at once. The program setup is slightly laborious, requiring you to complete two detailed forms, one on installation and one on launch, which are annoyingly duplicative. After you've muddled your way through that process, however, you enter your ad, which can be up to 150 words. Then The Classified Connection opens its list and starts sending your ad to various classifieds sites. It will take time to measure a difference in your response rate, but this program does its job. The submission targets, however, are heavily weighted toward American sites, which will limit the program's value to international users. Those whose small businesses require ongoing classified listings stateside are likely to find The Classified Connection a real time-saver.

Complete Ripoff, I'd give it zero stars if I could :-(
NicolaMeyersJanuary 1, 2013
Pros
None, never worked properly
Cons
Everything. SO many bugs it only worked twice, same with the backpage submitter they sell. Nothing worked correctly and it kept freezing my computer. After contacting the BBB they sent me a condescending email that they said they would fix it. And basically called me stupid, and said something was wrong with my computer. They finally refunded my money on the deadline day that the BBB had given them. Otherwise the BBB was going to escalate the claim. Pathetic service.
Summary
It never worked properly. No one ever answers the phone or calls back. Took me almost two months to get a refund. And I think the only reason they finally gave me a refund was because I filed a report with the BBB, otherwise they would still have my money...and I would have a crappy product that still didn't work. NEVER buy from them. I can't believe they are still in business.
Sorry, cant say I like it either :(

Pros
It's like hope in a bottle. At first you finally think you've found the good stuff, as specially for that kind of $$$. But then...
Cons
You realize after your purchase that, it's not all it was put out to be. I've used this software for over a year an still cant get even 1 website added to the Classified Connection software. I've watch every video four times and have taken all the notes in the world and have even done it step by step with the help videos and still the software never pulls up any of the sites I try to add.
Summary
Honestly, less costly in time and money for you to actually post your ads one by one yourself. I GUARANTEE IT %100 !
Product does not work at all
sktan7June 30, 2012
Pros
Nothing Pros. Full of fake!
Cons
Bugs! Bugs! Bugs! Hang most of the time! Cannot post a single advertisement! Refund policy was not true even though it was promise on the website! The product is not even close to Microsoft windows interface.
Summary
Never buy this product! I did not believe all the negative comment until I experience it myself. I thought that I am good with using software product, But I am totally wrong especially if the product cannot even work in the first place. One thing you can be assured is you are going to waste your money if you buy. Do not believe that the product exists for a long time. It does however has a long list of buyer's complaint!
Crap Software & No Refund - SCAM
Sharma222September 11, 2011
Pros
There is no pro's, this scammers advertising their software with moneyback guarantee. but you will never receive any refunds from this scammers. Because they are scammers.
Cons
Totally Crap interface and none of this classfieds sites doesn't work.
Summary
Purchased this software 20+ days ago and i tested this software after reading user guide. But this is completely useles crap application i have ever seen in my life. after requesting refund they asked me to disable activation and send actiovation code via email. i send the deactivation code 10 days ago. But still no refund no replies! This is complete scam.
Not what expected
mrjamcmNovember 17, 2009
Pros
The really wasnt' anything that i like about this product. It was useless to me.
Cons
I didn't like a whole lot of what this product had t offer.
Summary
I really thought that this product would be very nice. However, most classified ads, at least the one's I tried to work with required a cmrjamcmaption to be entered before it would accept your ad. This renders the software useless. I feel like I wasted $150,
Great Program and Support Team
software_man09August 30, 2009
Pros
1. You can submit multiple ads within minutes without repeatedly typing the ads over and over. 2. Great support team and help with in-depth help videos. 3. Very easy to understand once you learn how the program operates. 4. You can add new sites.
Cons
1. Some submissions are semi-automated because of the capthca codes. 2. Could use a better designed program interface.
Summary
I have had this program for a while and have had nothing but an excellent experience with the program and the technical support team. When I first purchased I had some issues with freezing also. I called the company directly because their phone number is clearly posted on the website and sent email requests. Someone answered every call and email. They helped me to figure out why the system was freezing, btw, the reason was listed in the help. I love the program and I am having good results. I think everyone should take a look for themselves. Remarkable program!!!
Did not reply emails on Technical & REFUND request!
irrenaJune 1, 2009
Pros
Everything looks like automated
Cons
The team is irresponsible and never assist the PC based user that is technically challenged, thus unprofessional from all aspect as you will be ignored completely after you paid.
Summary
1. Technical Department did not reply email on help requested and finally 1 email was replied after 1 week; with responses that it was caught in SPAM 2. Once you have paid, you are on your own irrespective if the program is working properly or not 3. On their website, it clearly said 'take this trial and FULL REFUND if unsatisfied within 60 days'. For the starter, they ask me WHY and never response to me again irrespective how many emails i reminded them i am awaiting their responses. Conclusion, I was ignored and i never heard from them again and of course, they ignored the refund request completely. Note: i only managed to use for 5 days Try calling to the service centre, they will tell you maybe a partial refund can be processes.
It is a Scam
kathy2001April 17, 2009
Pros
You get a few minutes of hope and excitement from something that is promised and never delivered.
Cons
You get ripped off. It submits to one site. You will see no change in traffic, because it doesn't do anything. NO MONEY BACK EITHER. I asked repeatedly and ignored.
Summary
DO NOT GET IT UNLESS YOU enjoy flushing your money down the toilet.
TOTAL FRAUD JUST ONE SITE!!!!! NOT 600SITES
computerpro1October 4, 2008
Pros
TOTAL FAKE COMPANY & PRODUCT
Cons
NO RESPONSES, IN A 9 MONTHS NOT 10,000 SITES REALLY ONE SITE!I
Summary
THIS IS A TOTAL FRAUD THE SITE: CLASSIFIEDSFORFREE.COM MASQUERADES AS 600 DIFFERENT SITES! IT'S REALLY JUST ONE SITE THAT USES DYNAMIC WEB PAGES TO CHANGE THE PAGE TITLES TO APPEAR TO BE 600 SITES(LOCATIONS). THEY HAVE 900 SITES LISTED IN THEIR PROGRAM. NOT THE 10,000 CLAIMED. 300 DO NOT WORK + THE CON SITE:CLASSIFIEDSFOR FREE.COM THE DEMO WORKS FINE, THE PAID PROGRAM IS HELL TO USE DO NOT BUY THIS PROGRAM!!!!!
The Best Classified Submitter on the Market
robwblsAugust 31, 2008
Pros
Ease of Submission. The system is pretty easy to setup. It has a wizard to get you started immediately. Submitting is virtually effortless.
Cons
Because of the technology of new classified sites adding your own sites takes a bit of undrstanding, but once done it is worth it.
Summary
The Classified Connection is a lifesaver if you do not want to keep typing in classified advertisements over and over. I wanted a program that could post my ads over and over and save me time. I understand that I had to do my due diligence and work hard at it. The program is not a cure all for online advertising but for the cost you cannot beat it. What takes me hours to do manually takes just minutes with the program. I had to have my computer up-to-date and I did have to read the help and watch the videos to understand everything, but it was worth the time and effort. The software seems to e very advanced in what it does. I have talked with the company on many occasions and if they were not there when I called, they always called me back and the help I was given was right on point. If a person is willing to put the work in the program is great. This is the best-classified submission program on the market and I recommended it to all my friends. I simply love it!
