# Testimonials

> Collect testimonials with forms and requests, import the ones you already have, approve them in one inbox and show them in widgets and on a Wall of Love.

Testimonials is part of every site in Privatus Analytics. Open a site and
choose **Testimonials** in the sidebar. Everything about testimonials is
behind that one item, in tabs: Inbox, Forms, Requests, Widgets, Walls,
Images, Collections, People, Import, Analytics and Settings.

New here? Read [Get started](/docs/testimonials/get-started) first. It
