Great Solution to be complient with KYC/AML
Pros
We found Persona to be incredibly easy to use and seamlessly implement into our solutions. Its user-friendly interface and robust features have significantly streamlined our processes, making it an invaluable tool for our team.
Cons
While our overall experience with Persona has been positive, we believe that continuous improvements would enhance its functionality even further. General performance is solid, but there's always room for optimization and new features.

Amazing service, but more pricing tiers would be appreciated!
My overall experience has been very positive. In addition to the Pros listed above, they have also proved responsive to any enquiries or issues and are quick to provide help when it is needed.
Pros
Persona has become a crucial part of our user identity verification workflow, and I have been extremely impressed with the service provided.
The API integration is straightforward to implement, and the UI for the account holder is intuitive so that customising the workflow to your needs is achievable for a layman.
The UI for the end user is extremely slick, which reflects well on any business or service using Persona.
Cons
It would be great if they offered a tier in between their startup and essential plan. The startup plan is extremely generous and perfect for new businesses that are keeping costs low, however the essential plan ($250 p/m at time of writing) represents a large jump in overheads - particularly for any bootstrapped startups.
Perhaps a combination of lower flat monthly rate + per verification pricing would enable startups to stay with Persona for their entire growth journey, rather than look for alternatives when they are in that awkward middle-ground between the two plans.

Great Tool for Simple Identity Verification Needs
My experience with Persona has been very positive. It’s a reliable tool for identity verification, and it has saved me a lot of time. It’s especially useful for small businesses that need simple, efficient verification processes.
Pros
What I like most about Persona is how easy it is to use. It’s straightforward, and I can verify identities quickly without any hassle. The interface is clean and user-friendly, which makes it easy to get started.
Cons
What I like least is the cost of the full plan. For small businesses like mine, it can be expensive. The Startup Program is helpful, but once you go over the limits, the pricing can feel a bit high.

Persona is a complete trust management platform
We run an online community and some sensitive topics require us to manage access to avoid liabilities. Using Persona allowed us to easily and safely create a process to identify users participating in our open marketplace, ensure a safe environment for people to trade. It also allowed us to maintain some sub-forums that could attract voices that would like to unfairly hide behind anonymity.
Pros
- Easy to integrate, drop-in hosted workflow
- Complete API
- Easy redaction
- Team management
- Excellent support
Cons
We are happy with the features and user experience so nothing to list here.
