Gripped Client Reviews
Gripped’s client-review picture rests on two sizeable platforms, Clutch and a syndicated DesignRush feed, both landing near 4.9/5, with no confirmed presence on G2, Trustpilot, GoodFirms, or UpCity.
Clutch: 4.9/5 (32 reviews)
The Clutch profile covers 32 reviews citing client-reported outcomes including a £1.3M pipeline result, a 46% ad-spend reduction, and a 38% traffic increase. Individual review dates run from November 2024 through December 2025, indicating an actively maintained profile.
What clients praise:
- Excellent communication and responsiveness, including proactive updates and quick problem-solving
- Strong project management, with on-schedule delivery and structured tracking
- Strategic, data-driven recommendations tailored to B2B SaaS
Where clients push back:
- One reviewer wanted earlier clarity on campaign direction, describing a wish for “stronger recommendations to pause, pivot, or change direction sooner”
“The detail and insights from Gripped’s monthly meetings have been very impressive.”
- Demand Marketing Manager, Terryberry (Clutch )
DesignRush: 4.9/5 (34 reviews)
DesignRush’s listing explicitly states these 34 reviews are sourced from Google rather than collected natively, so this figure should be read as a syndicated Google feed for the same business rather than a second independent verdict. All displayed reviews are five-star, which reflects the feed rather than confirming an absence of criticism.
What clients praise:
- Expertise and results, including a cited 38% traffic boost, a 50% rise in SQOs, and a 62.57% bounce-rate reduction
- A collaborative, hands-on partnership with willingness to explain recommendations
- Strategic problem-solving on product launches
Where clients push back: No critical themes are visible in this feed, which reflects data thinness rather than a clean bill of health.
“Gripped have been invaluable…their expertise in CRM, design, strategy, paid media and content has kept the ship steady.”
- Flynn Long, Client (DesignRush )
FeaturedCustomers: a profile exists with 4 vendor-curated references (3 testimonials, 1 case study). The rating it displays aggregates a platform-wide pool of 721 reference ratings rather than those 4 items, so no rating is reported here (verified August 2026). G2 and Trustpilot: no profile existed as of August 2026, and GoodFirms and UpCity listings could not be independently verified for a score or review count.
The two scored client platforms are not two independent confirmations: Clutch is a native review base of 32, while DesignRush’s 34 reviews are the same underlying Google feed republished, so the real independent client evidence is Clutch alone plus one syndicated proxy.
The only substantive client complaint across 66 combined reviews is a single Clutch note: a wish for earlier, stronger direction-change calls on underperforming campaigns, rather than a recurring pattern.
Both client platforms carry current reviews: Clutch’s individual reviews are dated November 2024 through December 2025, and the DesignRush-syndicated Google feed includes reviews dated into March 2025, so the review base is recent on both.
Gripped Employer Reviews
Glassdoor shows Gripped at 4.0/5 across 17 reviews, confirmed via a verified live browser read; no other employer platform carries a profile.
Glassdoor: 4.0/5 (17 reviews)
Gripped’s Glassdoor profile covers one London office at 1 to 50 employees, with 70% of reviewers recommending the company and 100% approving of co-CEOs Stephen Eveleigh and Ben Crouch (verified August 2026). At 17 ratings the base is small, so the 100% figure reflects a handful of responses rather than a broad mandate. Published sub-ratings include work-life balance at 3.6/5, culture and values at 3.8/5, and career opportunities at 3.9/5.
What reviewers praise:
- Learning and development across digital marketing, operations, and strategy
- Exposure to varied industries and clients, with responsibility available early
- A talented, collaborative team and a supportive onboarding and training period
Where reviewers push back:
- Priorities and processes changing frequently with limited consultation
- Pay, with one reviewer describing it as insufficient for living in London
- A fast pace that reviewers say suits some people and not others
- Limited fit for those wanting fully remote work
“Gripped offers great opportunities to learn and develop skills, especially in digital marketing, operations, and strategy. The team is talented and collaborative, and you can gain exposure to a variety of industries and clients.”
- Glassdoor reviewer (Glassdoor )
“The agency is disorganised at times. Priorities and processes change frequently with limited consultation or discernible benefit to task owners.”
- Glassdoor reviewer (Glassdoor )
AmbitionBox, Indeed, Comparably: no profile existed for Gripped as of August 2026, which is common for a UK-based agency of this size.
Glassdoor’s 17 reviews is a smaller sample: the score is verified via a direct live read, but should still be read cautiously given the sample size.
The Glassdoor process complaint plausibly connects to the one Clutch client complaint: both describe priorities or campaign direction shifting without being flagged as early or as clearly as stakeholders would like. This is a plausible link between two separately sourced single data points rather than a proven pattern.
