Let's be clear, Shareablee is not a jack of all trades. It has a finite remit at the moment and it does that job extremely well. If you're looking for strong data sets, impressive metrics, and highly capable filtering options on those data then Shareablee is peerless in this regard. If you are insight oriented, story-telling oriented, or digital savvy, then this tool will tick all the boxes. If you know what Shareablee is for - do some investigation beforehand - you won't be disappointed. If, however, you expect it to do more than it's core function, your expectations may fall short. Do your homework on Shareablee though and you'll be fine!

Talkwalker is well suited for big companies and agencies that are looking for a long-term solution to keep track of the industry and/or their brands and key competitors. While setup requires a bit of dedication (especially in terms of custom filters and tags), once it's done, the tool will give the user a lot of flexibility to analyze the conversations and find the relevant results that answer the business questions. Companies just looking for a tool to track a short time period, or simple things like Twitter hashtags, won't take advantage of the full capabilities of this tool. Therefore, they could feel frustrated when comparing the outcomes/usage versus the costs.

Cons
  • The user interface is a little clunky, and I think Shareablee is aware of this. Expect an update to UI soon, I imagine
  • While the mass of data and metrics is available, on the one hand, a goldmine, it's also a bit of a stumbling block. There's quite a learning curve to making sense of all the functionality and filters that are available. Like I said earlier, persevere and all will be worth it
  • The report runner can appear overwhelming, but again, bear with it, it's worth it!

  • A recent update has made adding filters to the dashboard far more convoluted than necessary.
  • Many metrics are displayed as "3.4M", it would be great if you could hover over that number to see the full "3,371,000".
  • The tagging feature is buggy and often needs to be done twice to tag the mentions applied in the rule.

Performance
No answers on this topic
Talkwalker gets the job done at a basic level. It performs regular indexing of existing webpages and tracks the instances in which a particular brand or company is mentioned. Especially for being free, this is an awesome resource. However, it should be said that this product does not perform nearly at the level of the paid options.

They are very helpful, but can sometimes be a little too quick and not explain things in as great a depth as we would like. They have great staff and programs, and we don't really have any other major complaints. Support is very responsive and helpful when need be.

I have yet to find another tool that would provide me with such a detailed information per query. It's such a find! Plus, I get separate emails per a search query and I'm able to archive those emails to the appropriate folders and always have a way of looking back. It's very useful for building monthly reports.
