Brand24 vs. Unmetric (discontinued)

Brand24 is perfect for a company that wants to build up its social media presence. It's great to know when our organization is mentioned online so I can engage with other companies. I like the mobile app but if there was a way to be notified via phone with it that would make it even better.

Unmetric is very well suited for social tracking. One thing to keep in mind is that you cannot view previous content when adding a new brand to your watch list.

Incentivized

• Tracked negative sentiments
• Had a broad scope of social media tracking thru various popular apps and websites
• Allowed you set up instant triggers to find post that submitted very recently

Incentivized

• Very user friendly.
• Great support staff.
• Constant updates.

Incentivized

• Pretty weak on its algorithm to determine if a comment was positive, neutral, or negative
• Statistics weren't overly useful for us

Incentivized

• The interface is slightly different for each social channel, which is confusing for novice users. I wish they'd standardize their naming schemes and dashboards, to the extent they can be with the different platforms.
• They'll add and implement new features but won't tell you- I came back into the platform to discover they'd applied a weighting scheme to my engagement rate that messed up my findings.
• Sometimes the platform just stops working.
• Support sits in India so there's no way to get answers fast if you have a question or issue.

I would start with Mention as opposed to beginning with Brand24. We originally used Mention but the price was increasing year-over-year so we wanted to try a cheaper alternative. We eventually did go back to Mention after Brand24, due to its ease of use and it was also easier to monitor our brand with Mention in the end.

I haven't used Simply Measured in a few years, mostly because it was just too expensive for what we needed it for and Unmetric provided what we needed at a reasonable price. I also had an issue with how big the Simply Measured files were- they often froze analysts' computers, and the first task was to delete unused tabs to reduce the file size.

Incentivized

• Positive: We can respond to customers in a reasonably realistic timeframe.
• Positive: We get updates from old content that has new activity.

Incentivized

• I haven't traced our use of this platform back to ROI specifically, but the data it provides is key to our strategic client work and clients are pleased with the level of detail and rigor we are able to provide.
