Likelihood to Recommend
This is [well-suited] for a smaller agency or a small team. I feel that our team (around 5 people) is the perfect size, as we are all on the same page regarding what everyone is working on. When there are more people and more projects/communications going out, it can become a little chaotic to use.

Cons
  • Sometimes BuzzStream can have glitches but the BuzzStream team is super responsive and receptive to helping you resolve any issues.
  • There are a lot of clicks and stages you have to get through to save a contact or change a status. It would be nice if BuzzStream developed an autosave option whereby you didn't have to click 'save'every time you change something or update a contact.

  • Top Pages Data: In the past, Similarweb PRO provided extensive data on a website's top pages, allowing for a deeper understanding of competitors' content strategies. However, the platform has reduced the extent of this information in recent years, limiting the insights users can glean. Restoring more comprehensive top pages data would be a valuable addition to the platform.
  • Data Accuracy: While Similarweb PRO generally provides accurate data, there have been instances where the reported numbers deviate from the actual figures, particularly for smaller or niche websites. Improving the platform's data accuracy, especially for less prominent sites, would enhance the overall reliability of the tool.

Usability
Buzzstream is great to help identify sites to get links from, and it makes this process so efficient, easy and personal to all, the ones who are using it and the ones that are receiving. Flawless navigation, good outlook, 10/10!

Similarweb is a very easy to use tool and gives us data on the go. It takes only a few clicks to get the relevant data. However, I have deducted 2 points as it only allows us to add 5 websites at a time on the platform, and data availability is only for the last 37 months.

Support Rating
Support is one of the best aspects of BuzzStream. I know their support team is small and somehow they are able to get back to us right away in a super helpful, friendly fashion. I've had many questions - sometimes they release a new feature, sometimes a feature isn't working correctly and they are quick to answer but also help explain it in a way that makes sense.

Support is just helpful and effective when you need them; we have only needed to contact them once about a misunderstanding while setting up our Market Analysis. Since we don't really contact them too often, it's hard to offer anything but a positive rating from the single positive experience we had with tech support.

Alternatives Considered
I evaluated a few different software solutions before settling on BuzzStream. What made me choose BuzzStream? It was easy--I found that BuzzStream was the easiest of the bunch to get a template and campaign started. Their Chrome extension was easy to use and the customization features were something that (at the time) the competitors did not have. Finally, the cost of BuzzStream was a lot less than the competitors, but it didn't sacrifice features. I actually had a subscription to SpyFu and after using BuzzStream for a few months, canceled it because I found that I never logged in or used SpyFu.

Whilst data.ai has strong app competitor intelligence data, Similarweb do a better job of showing the upstream and downstair behaviour across desktop and mobile web. Additionally, Similarweb's channel marketing mix goes deeper and allows us to understand a wider set of channels and be able to get a holistic understanding of our overall marketing strategy performance

Return on Investment
  • It's had a positive impact in keeping our entire agency organized. Especially when employees leave, all of their communication is in one place, so it's pretty easy to have someone take over the process.
  • You can test different messaging for prospects and then determine the most successful.

  • Similarweb PRO has helped us gain conviction in industries or companies we're interested in early on and, conversely has helped us kill deals where see many negative indicators
  • Helped us give our portfolio companies insights into their own website performance vs. competitors
