Get Optery! You will not regret it!

I’ve had the Optery Ultimate Plan for over six months now, and I can’t say enough positive things about the plan and the customer service I have received from Optery. The by-monthly report I receive is easy to read and understand. The Dashboard is also easy to navigate and informs you of your completed and pending removals. Most importantly, I can't say enough about Optery’s customer service. Every email I have sent asking a question has been answered quickly, and my questions are always thoroughly answered. I have occasionally asked questions about other ways to protect myself that might not fall under Optery’s services. Despite this, they still went above and beyond to answer my questions and, on a few occasions, provided me with website links as a resource. The staff are always kind and considerate, and you get the feeling that they care about you and highly regard customer service. I highly recommend Optery. You will not regret it.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad to hear that you've seen a noticeable reduction in robocalls since using Optery. Removing your personal information from data broker sites helps limit how your data is shared and used, which can significantly reduce unwanted contact.

Optery is designed to support a broader privacy and security strategy by minimizing your online footprint and making you a more difficult target for phishing, fraud, and other threats.

If you ever have questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out.

Relieved from incessant phone calls.

We were getting many phone calls from trying to contact a business that had gone bankrupt. Unfortunately we now had that Phone number.
Optery took a while but eventually got rid of the links giving out that number. Good job.

I am most definitely impressed with the very professional, prompt,friendly and courteous way that Optery employees carry themselves.I don't think 5 stars is enough for a great team like this.
I am a 70 year old woman who is not tech savvy and was very lost coming into this app.Josiah, Allison, & Gideon were all so very helpful and patient with me.
All three of the gave me extremely helpful links and took their time explaining things to me.
I am just blown away by the friendly and helpful customer service.
I want to thank all three of the wonderful employees, you are genuinely top of the line all-stars in your field!

I'm tired of these parasitic web sites making money off of my information. All they do is facilitate identity theft. Optery puts an end to their BS.

Easy to use and GREAT support.

The initial setup of the product was about as easy as it could be. Provide some information, and let the product do it's work. I can't speak on the quality of the end result quite yet as I've only just started using the system, but so far it seems to be working EXACTLY as advertised.

I had a couple of questions and wanted to provide some feedback (Dark theme mode, and Hardware Key authentication for the account), and the online chat support was VERY quick to reply (within just a few minutes), answered my questions, and seemed to accept my feedback in a positive manner.

Because of my experience now after only just 2 days, I've gone ahead and purchased an Ultimate subscription, and am certain I won't regret it!

UPDATE: Just a couple of weeks after writing this review, as well as sending a dark theme suggestion email, they've introduced dark mode!!! This company is great, for the simple fact that they listen to customer feedback, which is rare these days.

The Most Incredible Privacy Company You’ll Ever Meet – Optery Saved My Peace of Mind!

I wish I could give Optery a million stars because they deserve every single one! As someone caught in a terrifying doxxing nightmare—where my family was getting harassing calls and sensitive info was being thrown around—I was desperate for help. Optery didn’t just step up; they blew me away with the kind of human, caring support you rarely find anymore. This isn’t just a company—it’s a team of real people who’ve got your back when the internet turns ugly.

From my very first message, their support agent, Allison, was a literal superhero. I poured my heart out about the stress of doxxers targeting my family, and she responded with such warmth and understanding that I felt truly seen, not like some ticket number. She didn’t just toss me a generic reply—she gave me clear, actionable steps to add multiple phone numbers and emails to my Ultimate Plan, which was a game-changer for locking down our info. Even when I mentioned budget struggles, there was no pressure, just pure encouragement and an open door to help anytime.

What makes Optery special isn’t just their tech (which is top-notch, scanning hundreds of shady data broker sites to scrub your info). It’s their heart. Allison’s replies felt like a friend saying, “You’re not alone—we’re in your corner.” Every email was fast (sometimes minutes!), thoughtful, and packed with care, proving they’re not robots but humans who get how scary privacy threats are. They even suggested a Family Plan to protect my loved ones, and while I’m still figuring out costs, their advice never felt salesy—just genuinely about helping.

Optery turned my panic into hope. They’re not just removing data; they’re fighting for your safety and dignity in a world where doxxers and scammers run wild. I’ve got mad respect for a company that combines cutting-edge tools with old-school compassion. If you’re worried about your info being out there—or worse, if you’re dealing with harassment like I was—Optery’s the real deal. They don’t just deserve your money; they deserve your trust and a standing ovation. Thank you, Allison and Optery, for being the heroes we all need!

Really good service

Really good service. They've removed the majority of my data. I'm a bit confused as to how they choose which brokers they put in each plan though. I feel like the Ultimate plan should specifically be for people with businesses who are constantly in data brokers' rotation. it would also be helpful if they could at least list the entire 615 that they are aware of so we can check on them ourselves. All in all, I'm no longer coming up anywhere when I do a google search so the service was very helpful.

Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear that Optery has been helpful in removing the majority of your data and improving your online privacy.

Regarding your question about how data brokers are assigned to each plan, the data brokers covered under each plan are determined by the level of service provided, with the Ultimate plan offering the most extensive coverage. However, some data brokers are specific to certain plans due to their unique opt-out processes or the level of automation and support provided for each plan. You can find a list of the data brokers we cover directly in your Optery dashboard, including those available with the Expanded Reach feature. This will give you an overview of the data brokers being tracked and the data we're working to remove for you. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
