Yap badges
Yap holds no Softwr badge at present. Badges are awarded within a category each season, from buyer activity and reviews measured on Softwr. The rules for each one are below. Read the Yap review.
What a Softwr badge is
- Won in a category, in a season
- Each award is measured against the other products in one category, over one quarter, and says so on the badge: "Most Viewed in CRM, Fall 2026".
- Measured on Softwr
- The figures come from Softwr’s own traffic and from reviews written here. Ratings imported from other sites are never counted.
- The same rules for everyone
- A daily job applies the published rule for each badge to every listed product. Nobody pays, nobody applies, and nobody at Softwr picks the winners.

Questions about Yap’s badges
- What badges has Yap earned on Softwr?
- None at present. Badges are awarded within a category each season, from buyer activity and reviews measured on Softwr, and Yap has not yet placed in its category on any of them.
- How are Softwr badges decided?
- By a job that runs every day against every listed product, using the published rule for each badge. Attention badges rank products within their category on what buyers do on Softwr, such as visits and comparisons. Review badges come from reviews written and moderated on Softwr. Ratings imported from other sites are never counted, and nobody at Softwr picks the winners.
- What do the category and season on a badge mean?
- A badge is won against the other products in one category, in one season, which is a calendar quarter. "Most Viewed in CRM, Fall 2026" means the product was among the most visited CRM products on Softwr at some point between October and December 2026. The award keeps that label after the season ends, so it stays true as the numbers move.
- Can a product pay or apply for a Softwr badge?
- No. There is no fee, no application and no partner tier that awards one, and the rules are the same for every product. The only way to earn one is to meet its published rule on the figures Softwr measures.
- How do I add a Yap badge to my website?
- There is nothing to embed until Yap holds a badge. Once it does, the code appears on this page and in the vendor dashboard, as a plain image tag with no script and nothing to install.
- Do I have to keep the link back to Softwr?
- Yes. The snippet links the image to this page so a visitor can see the figure behind the award and the rule it met. A badge nobody can check is decoration.
- How long does a badge last?
- Each award names its season and stays valid for a set period after that season ends; the period is shown with each rule. It is withdrawn early only if the listing stops being live on Softwr. A product that qualifies again in a later season earns that season’s award as well.
