In their review, Billboard stated that "Cara shows her vocal versatility on such uptempo tracks as the remake of "Reach Out, I'll Be There," "Wha'd Ya Want" and achieves a poignancy on "Anyone Can See." Cara has surrounded herself with a cast of top players with the end result an impressive new chapter in her young career."^[4]

Cash Box noted that "she has a young energetic vocal style that comes across as more heartfelt on ballads than on uptempo numbers like the title track. Luckily she's found a producer, Ron Dante, who can direct lush Manilow-like ballads, as well as more uptempo synth/dance numbers. A searing remake of the Motown classic "Reach Out, I'll Be There" and the poppy "Wha'd Ya Want" are other highlights of this excellent debut for Network."^[5]

AllMusic rated the album three stars, complementing the "strong R&B repertoire, reputable backing musicians, and solid production" on the record. "Her distinctive combination of subtlety and strength...is something of a cross between the raspy tones of Bonnie Tyler and the sensitivity of Deniece Williams. A solid listen throughout, Anyone Can See is Cara in her prime.^[6]
