### 4/5 — Bert

*2025-08-26*

It works great. Only thing is, at times. Not fully updated. Also, for some reason, the zoom feature does not zoom in as much as before- making it hard to see how the roofs are oriented most of the time.

### 4/5 — Canvass

*2025-08-19*

Integrate Project Sunroof button in the app so we can see which house get the best sunlight hours. Also after 6 months make the pins other people put on houses disappear, so it’s not confusing with the pins I’m putting up.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great feedback! If your company has enabled it, you should see a Project Sunroof option from any Address Card by tapping the "Send to" button.

### 4/5 — 8/10

*2025-08-18, version 1.34.5*

has some issues but overall works as it should

### 3/5 — Marsalis Clark- review

*2025-08-18, version 1.34.5*

Suggested improvements :

- Location setting: Should update once you click on a new house. Have it constanlty running drains battery very quickly. 

- Many of the Icons to mark are unnecessary for day to day knocking. Prioritizing Not interested, Not home, and callbacks should be primary button. Many reps will put a note on their own as to why door needs to be revisited.

Cool features to add:

Tab that tracks numbers so don’t need a tally app

Google Project Sunroof integration to see sun hours on home.  

A reset homes feature (may have but hard to find) as sometimes houses too close together merge as one pin making it slower to mark. 

Still a good app. I think it could be cleaner thanks!

### 3/5 — Hot phone

*2025-07-20, version 1.34.5*

This app is great and serves a wonderful purpose for my colleagues and I, but we are all having issues with our phones getting extremely hot.

### 5/5 — Best Door-to-Door App

*2021-01-26, version 1.22.5*

Canvass has allowed me to be more efficient during my daily door knocking routine. Love the ease of use.

### 5/5 — Took the best of existing platforms and made it better.

*2021-01-26*

I’ve worked on multiple lead platforms as well as appointment platforms. Some had solid features but the rest of the apps failed to hit the Mark. Canvass has been great at allowing me to see my day to plan and track my progress easily in a nice UI. I would highly recommend it to any sales team or org that wants to dominate their region.

### 5/5 — Better than the others

*2021-01-26*

Our company has used Canvass for a while now and it is by far the best software on the market. I love going into an area and being able to see notes and info on the customer.

### 5/5 — Golden Tool

*2021-01-26*

This software helps in more ways than one. It cannot be understated how useful it is when canvassing and re-canvassing an area. Definitely useful for any one surveying areas and providing reliable, consistent information.

### 5/5 — Get it done better, faster

*2021-01-26*

Canvass helps our teams get & stay organized on multiple fronts. It’s intuitive, complete & easy to manage. Improvements are based on our in-the-trenches feedback. Critical tool to get the job done!

### 5/5 — Best app for D2D ever

*2021-01-26*

I have used several apps from massive companies for tracking neighborhoods and interactions. I have never had such any easy time to add a new home to the map, tracking team knocking numbers, putting houses in categories for go backs and follow ups, and now the ability to do clashes head to head! I love this app! - Kody Ayotte

### 5/5 — Don’t Go Door to Door Without it!

*2021-01-26*

This app has changed the games for me as a sales rep. From door to door approaches to remote and cross country sales. It helps me manage my contacts, verify ownership, and track my numbers. I wouldn’t ever go back to another platform. From Excel to Salesrabbit, Ive used it all and this one is levels above the rest!

### 5/5 — New Reps take

*2021-01-26*

Normally tools like these take weeks sometimes months to fully utilize... as a brand new rep who had never used anything like this I was fully utilizing it within a 3 days.  Incredibly intuitive

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2021-01-26*

Canvass has made door knocking and organizing appointments such a breeze! Before this tool, I was using my iPad notes to jot down knocked doors & this app has made my life so much easier. 
Now with all the extra features, I’m super stoked!!

### 5/5 — The feature set is rich!

*2021-01-26, version 1.22.5*

This app is by far one if the easiest and cleanest apps used to track and manage sales teams who work in field sales.

### 5/5 — App has helped me make 200k plus

*2021-01-26, version 1.22.5*

This app is the secrete sauce for my entire d2d sales business. LGCY power check em out we all use canvass and it’s revolutionary! From steven_the_solar_guy_LGCY !! LUKE WE LOVE YOU. and the bear too

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Was pretty good

*2026-08-28*

I’ve been using this app for a year now with Sales once I got AT&T in an apple Pro tablet. Everything was smooth. I’m on my 15 month with them. and now I’m constantly not having service. It keeps getting out of the notes while I’m typing and occasionally crashing even while I’m on fiber Wi-Fi in front of the router something has to change. I will rewrite when you do fix.

### 1/5 — Pins are misplaced

*2025-08-18, version 1.34.5*

I love the workflow and aesthetics of the app but the GPS and Pins are not in the right place they are way off and highly inaccurate.

### 1/5 — Poor expectations set with ability to upload our own leads

*2023-11-07*

We were going to give them a run after having 2 weeks of glitches with salesrabbit. They never mentioned we could only upload 5000 leads but said they were working to add to that limit. So after prepaying for 30 agents for 3 months we realized during onboarding that we couldn’t seamlessly upload our data and couldn’t store any real volume of leads in their platform like their competition. Platform looked great for small teams or agents, but anyone engaging to upload their own leads should consider a different platform.

### 1/5 — App didn’t work for me.

*2021-03-23, version 1.23.2*

Only thing that pulled up is a blank screen.

### 1/5 — Super glitchy

*2021-01-03, version 1.22.5*

Love the concept of the app but it’s the most glitchy app I have used since I got the iPod touch in 2009. Need major bug fixes and improvements

### 1/5 — LOST YEARS OF DATA INPUT!!!

*2020-12-16*

I began using Canvass reluctantly a couple of years ago. The only reason I started using it was because the company I work with, Brinks Home Security offered it to all of their dealers for free. I was previously using Spotio and had no gripes with them. Again, the only reason I started using this app was because it was offered for free. 

I’ve personally input thousands of potential customers into Canvass so I could always have tracking of anything I might have came across from a home owner not being home, not interested at the time, a new customer, etc... After years of inputting this data one can only imagine the amount of money being left on the table of this data was lost.

About a month ago the Brinks Home Security dealer I worked with decided to dismantle their door-to-door program. A few days prior to that Brinks Home Security decided to randomly and suddenly stop offering Canvass to all dealers for free. When this happened I immediately couldn’t login to access my data. I reached out to the ownership and corporate staff of Canvass to assist me in getting my data. I was never really super excited to use Canvass anyways so I wanted to research other door tracking apps to make the best decision for myself for the future. 

To make a long story short, after well over a month of consistent communication with Canvass corporate staff, they stated I could not access my data unless I became a paid customer again. Meaning, I’m being forced to sign up with a company against my will just do access my years of data I input. Normally I don’t go write bad reviews but considering I’ve came to no resolution I want to warn people against using this company because you will lose everything unless you agree to what they want. 

When deciding on a door tracking app for your business make sure that you will have access to all of the data if you ever decide to leave. I’m super unhappy with this company and this review will remain until I receive all of my data.

### 1/5 — BEWARE FAKE APP

*2020-10-12, version 1.22.5*

TOTALLY USELESS AND IMPOSSIBLE TO USE!
 The only good reviews are from totally bogus accounts. Yet one common theme runs through all real name accounts- THIS APP DOESN’T WORK!!!   Notice, they never answer any questions about how to login since the app doesn’t recognize any company names at all. They must be collecting info when we download and selling that.

### 1/5 — Why is it this complicated to get started??

*2020-02-18, version 1.17.4*

Won’t let us get started. Worthless...

### 1/5 — Huh?

*2020-01-21, version 1.17.1*

I downloaded the app and it’s asking for a company name and, of course, can’t locate because I just got the app. It’s the only option on that screen. If they can’t get the most basic aspect of UI right, why would I invest more time.

### 1/5 — Does app require a subscription?

*2020-01-09, version 1.17*

I downloaded app, opened app, app asked me mu company name, i entered it, app said “does not recognize that name, DEAD END. There is nothing in the description that explains if you need to sign up online to use.

### 5/5 — Work smart and hard to win the market

*2026-05-06, version 26.5.1*

Amazing app that helps efficiency with are management, organization, pipeline and more. One of the best tools I have ever used in the D2D game.

### 5/5 — Everyone’s gotta get it

*2025-08-21, version 1.34.6*

Best door knocking tool in the market right now! 100% would recommend!

### 5/5 — Best tool in the D2d industry

*2025-08-18*

Canvass allows me to work more efficiently as a manager, I can set up round robin calendaring for team and not worry about assigning appointments. 
The planner helps me keep track of my team and that we are productive.

### 5/5 — Best In-App Experience On the Market

*2025-06-09*

I’ve tried all of the canvassing apps on the market (SalesRabbit, Spotio, RepCard, etc…). They all say that they can do the same things, but the user experience is not the same. While the others felt clunky, slow, and glitchy; Canvass is fast-performing, well designed, and intuitive. After implementing Canvass, our sales increased 175%, and our employee attrition decreased by 50%. My employees loved using this.

### 5/5 — Sales Efficiency and Productivity Increased 10x!!

*2024-06-20*

My canvassers saved about 3 hours/day while using this app, which led to more conversations with customers and more sales!

Love the user experience and design. It’s incredibly easy to use. 

Would recommend to any organization that goes door-to-door!

### 5/5 — Excellent for Canvasing

*2024-06-20, version 1.28.2*

Great app to track canvassing. Excellent maps, house tracking and much more. Highly useful and great customer service. Brenden at Canvass has been very helpful!

### 5/5 — Excellent Support

*2023-03-10*

Kyle Mortensen is extremely helpful! This door to door sales tool is good. It has a lot of features and has the capability to link with CRMs. I am not great with technology so I found myself confused. With an app like this in my opinion it can only be as good as it’s support so thank you Kyle for all the support. You patiently answered my questions and solved the problems I had. It is really good to know that I can get in touch with you easily whenever I have an issue.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal app

*2022-04-24*

I’ve never reviewed an app before but I gotta give credit where it’s due. This app works really well and has minimal bugs. It’s very intuitive and has great features. Although it’s complex it seems to run really smooth. The leaderboard feature prompts a restart at times (i os 15.4.1) but that’s the only bug I’ve personally experienced.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-01-28, version 1.22.5*

Exactly what I need to make the most out of my day on the doors!

### 5/5 — Perfect for Door to Door

*2021-01-26*

I’ve been using canvass for two years now and it has made my life so easy. It allows you to organize all the data that you get while knocking so you can have clarity of mind to focus on the job in front of you.
