SaaS Academy Reviews

I went through SaaS Academy's Growth Accelerator program. The atmosphere is supportive, the coaches and team are genuinely invested in your success, and the level of personalized attention is something you don’t find in most programs. If you put in the time and engage with the content, coaches, and community, there’s a ton of value to unlock. I’d highly recommend this program to any SaaS founder who is serious about learning how to build the foundations, apply various GTM strategies, and avoid mistakes.

Alles top! Würde ich empfehlen

Calls are super helpful and coaches are extremely knowledgeable.

The SaaS Academy coaches are experienced founders that have launched and exited successful SaaS companies. They truly care about your success, are extremely knowledgeable, collaborative, and they went above and beyond for our team more than once. The resources provided in the campus are extensive and comprehensive. If there's a problem your facing there's likely something in there to help you solve it. The community, fellowship, and networking with other founders was also very valuable. They give you the 'what' and the 'how'. Execution is up to you, and as a founder you need to be ready to recognize and do what's best for your business. I bring this up because there is no "magic pill". The magic is hard work, commitment, and never giving up. If you have these 3, their team has your back. A lot of growth happened for us in this program and we have no regrets after working with them for a full year! 🚀

Disgusting treatment, stole all of the content that I paid for. Derek De Leon accused of not being a customer. When he found out I was, provided 20% of the content back. Outrageous.

LOOK - If you want to grow a SaaS, this is THE place to BE. Straight up value. No other way around it. Get what you need, implement it, succeed.

Exactly what I needed to get into business. The diversity in perspectives, and focused / deliberate resources helped me debug our business and get us off the ground. Most importantly, the community of founders, Joe and the coaches have been instrumental in maintaining focus and morale. Can't recommend this program enough to early-stage founders.

Really great resources for early stage founders across all disciplines in SaaS. Great community, great ideas, great events.

Total scam. The govt needs to shut this place down. Unethical and blatantly violate the law. Johnny Page is a thief and crook.

After several years in SaaS Academy’s programs, I can say with confidence that they set the gold standard for coaching and community. The coaches are all awesome and genuinely care, challenging me to level up while always having my back. The wider team mirrors that same enthusiasm—whether it’s a quick reply, a detailed strategy breakdown, or a friendly check-in, their default mode is “How can we help you win?” Thanks to their clear frameworks, accountability, and top-notch support, I’ve hit revenue milestones faster, built a more resilient go-to-market engine, and grown as a leader. If you’re serious about scaling a SaaS business and want a team that’s truly rooting for your success, SaaS Academy is it.

I don’t write reviews often — but this one’s earned it. SaaS Academy isn’t just another business coaching program. It’s a performance accelerator for founders who are done playing small and ready to scale with precision. Dan, Johnny and the team don’t serve fluff. They serve frameworks, accountability, and real strategy — stuff that moves the needle. I came in looking for clarity and speed, and I walked away with systems, firepower, and a sharper mindset. Revenue? Up. Processes? Tight. Vision? Clearer than ever. If you're bootstrapping chaos and hoping to “figure it out” on your own, good luck-- prolly not gonna work. But if you're building something real and want to cut the timeline in half — maybe even more get in the room (Virtually and In Person) Coach Carroll Founder, AI SaaS + Growth Operator - Carroll Media

What's amazing about Idea to Launch is they not only give you the tools but they teach you the MINDSET you must have to use those tools. This is the real deal. If you have the humility to learn, this will change your life.

Dane and Derek have really made it easy to understand the ins and outs of building a successful SaaS Company from Idea all the way to successful launch and beyond. I also found the lessons learned from less successful SaaS launches very helpful. I wish I had been able to take advantage of this sooner. It would have saved me time and money that I have already invested. However, the methods and processes you learn here are worth the price of admission!

Dane's teaching was profoundly inspiring and provided me with unprecedented business insights. I entered the program with a pre-built database schema and a front-end developed in MS PowerApps, seeking solutions to Microsoft's limitations for a scalable SaaS model. Initially, I was uncertain about the program's value, fearing it might be a misuse of resources. However, as I engaged with the action items and observed the workflows, the experience proved invaluable in clarifying my software vision. The key takeaway was that success is not about the product itself (the features and buttons), but the outcomes it delivers. This game-changing advice has equipped me with a comprehensive set of tools. Now, I am focused on the micro steps in finding the time to launch this SaaS company to achieve the success I envision, while balancing the day to day operations of my safety company. This is the ultimate goal... to free up my time so the sweat equity is minimal, and the revenue is expediential.

The insight, understanding & conversational nature of program allowed me to learn quickly, easily & without fear in an extremely high level environment. SaaS Academy helped me to see holes or gaps in my thinking, while gaining immense validity in my holistic approach towards my current SaaS project. I am extremely excited to apply what I have learned to all the current & future SaaS products that I will be bringing to the world!

(This review is for Idea to Launch) Starting a business always seemed like arcane magic to me. No matter how many books I've read or things I've tried, it never made any sense. Idea to Launch is the only course that actually helped me understand how to really start a business from scratch. It's taught by Dane Maxwell, who is an incredibly charismatic instructor and is still in the game of creating businesses himself. If you've always wanted to start a business, even if it's not a SaaS, you must take this course.

An honest, friendly, and calm atmosphere, coupled with a direct and effective approach to solving software challenges. Dan took his time to thoroughly understand my needs and provided a comprehensive overview of exactly what's required to build successful software solutions. Highly recommended!

Having a community that is so focused on winning, sharing knowledge, and growing together is a breath of fresh air. We’ve spent 10’s of thousands on similar communities, and none have been filled with as many high level conversations as SaaS Academy. You don’t pay for guaranteed success, you pay for speed of information and playbooks. If you can execute, you will grow. Big shoutout to the team - Especially Joe and Derrick who have went above and beyond to make sure our bottlenecks get solved.

Working with SaaS Academy has been a standout experience. Right from the start, I was hooked by their high value proposition—expert coaching, a tight-knit community, and some of the best content I’ve come across for B2B SaaS founders. Their material is incredibly informative, hitting the mark on the exact challenges SaaS entrepreneurs face, from financial forecasting to operational scaling. I was convinced of their worth early on and haven’t looked back. The staff is equally impressive—knowledge-able, great to work with, and genuinely invested in understanding your needs to help you grow your business and career. SaaS Academy’s hands-on approach and actionable insights make it a must for any SaaS leader aiming to level up! I look forward to when I can move up to their next level.

Joining Growth Accelerator has been one of the most transformative decisions I've made for my business. What sets them apart is their genuine commitment to founder success—providing actionable frameworks that can be implemented immediately, not just theories. The structured 8-week cohort sessions combined with office hours created the perfect balance of community learning and tailored guidance. I wish it was longer or offered "here's the next things to focus on" after the initial 8-weeks. What I appreciate most is how the Growth Accelerator team recognized my dedication, celebrated my wins, and motivated me to push beyond my comfort zone. Since joining, I've developed clear strategies, improved operational efficiency, and gained the confidence to make bold decisions backed by data and guidance. If you're a SaaS founder looking to break through plateaus, I cannot recommend Growth Accelerator enough—it's a transformative partnership that equips you with the tools, mindset, and support system needed to thrive in today's competitive landscape.
