Let the facts speak!
Versus is a global comparison platform, providing unbiased comparisons across various categories: from tech products to cities. By providing accurate information in an easy-to-visualize way, we aim to simplify decision making.
The problem:
Information overload
Making the right choice when faced with an ever-growing number of options is challenging. Gathering relevant and accurate data is no easy task: our brains are constantly overloaded with information, offers, and possibilities. With new products and features to keep up with, making the choice that best suits one's needs demands a lot of time — and with possible bias from manufacturers and retailers, there is no guaranteed accuracy in what you'll find in your research.
Our solution:
Fact-based, objective comparisons
We understand that making objective and well-informed decisions is a challenging task and that our users' time is precious. It's our mission to research, analyze, and present data in a straightforward way. Do you want a smartphone with an ultra-fast processor? Or are you planning a trip to a city with lots of museums? Whatever you’re looking for, all you have to do is to have your priorities in mind — Versus does the hard work for you.
Our values:
Accuracy, Impartiality, Transparency, Simplicity, Informativeness
Versus currently covers over 100 categories, from consumer electronics to software and services. To provide an objective overview of the most important specifications, features, and facts, we gather data from manufacturers’ websites and product manuals, as well as testing products and apps. You can read more about our research process and editorial values in our editorial guidelines.
A high score at Versus and a great ranking cannot be obtained monetarily. We are completely impartial, thus only items with exceptional features receive a high score. To find out how we calculate the Versus score, check out our FAQ section.
A little bit of history
Versus was launched in 2012 with the purpose of helping users make informed buying decisions through objective, fact-based comparisons. Our initial focus was on tech products, but we expanded our know-how to other categories, such as apps, cities, universities, and nutrition. Versus now covers over 26 million comparisons and is available in 15 languages. In June 2016, the company became part of MenschDanke.
