Lumar vs. Semrush

It is useful for our clients to help identify where there are any issues and what improvements should be made. We are able to use all the counts of each elements to work out which to prioritise and create an action plan for our clients. If a team isn't able to implement any of the insights from within this tool, then it probably wouldn't be worth the money

This is suited to plan for keywords in a single market, but it struggles when you need to consolidate several markets. It is well-suited to discover new keywords directly related to the ones being used currently to expand the content the company is creating to get better results.

• GUI, when you run a crawl, the response is epic. It isn't just results, the results are very easy to understand.
• Again, as pertaining to the explanation above. If you use other crawl software, it can be difficult to get insights, whereas DeepCrawl makes it easy. You can get proper insights.
• It is so easy to put your stamp on things. DeepCrawl gives you an option as a consultant that you might not have had before, it is your backup.

• Great visuals for keyword position tracking, love that you can see the page that is ranking
• Enjoyed the auto-generated reporting feature (specifically in the context of keyword position tracking)
• Shows many different and useful views for competitive research
• Great templated keyword research tools for those who are not as hands-on with SEO
• I LOVE the Keyword Magic Tool for honing in on longtail, high-opportunity keywords

• Sitemap generating time often takes a few hours depending on how large your site is
• I would like to have more suggestions to guide optimization efforts
• Some of the initial setup for crawlers does take time

• Extra seats can be expensive, as [an] agency with multiple team members this can be frustrating
• Backlink data is not great, misses out a lot of backlinks (better off using a specialist backlink tool like Link research tools LRT)
• Tracking multiple keywords, across multiple clients can be costly

I [previously] used Semrush for many years and I cannot find any other tool being so complete and easy to use.

It's great once you know how to use it... That being said there can definitely be some hiccups trying to learn the program. Even when writing this review i originally gave it an 8 and realized how many things I didn't even know existed after using it for a couple of years. Not the best 'usability' if you can't even find all the features you might want to use.

The interface is a little less intuitive than it could be. The data is often available but filtering and manipulating the data can be a little difficult at times. Expanded comparisons would be helpful since most of the time seeing more than a few competitors at a time allows for a better sense of how to forecast.

Semrush available when you need it!

SemRush performs well with few errors!

I liked the platform overall. It is a good crawler. I no longer use because it's duplicate of what I get with seoClarity. I did not give it 10/10 because sometimes I had a hard time isolating site areas that I wanted and didn't get much technical support from Conductor on how to use the tool

I'm in a FB group for Semrush paid users and it amazing! They are fast to respond, take suggestions and help with questions. I have not felt alone in using this product at all. Highly recommend their support team. When I had an issue I can jump into the group and they will help get me the right person to help or even tag their programmers to look at something that is going on. Love the group!

I did it by myself and do not have a comment!

Lumar is great for what it does - tracking technical changes and opportunities for a site. It does so affordably as well. In my opinion it would be best compared to Screaming Frog as it does essentially the same thing but with less flexibility on the backend and a much cleaner UI that doesn't take as much learning. But also not quite as powerful and not as adjustable for your specific needs as Screaming Frog. So give and take!

We have used both Ahrefs and Semrush extensively at our agency and Semrush remains the tool of choice. We find that Semrush has the largest selection of tools & features to use, with the highest accuracy, and provides top-tier analysis recommendations. It's really is the ultimate all-in-one tool when comparing other performance measurement tools in the digital marketing space.

Semrush is flexible and scalable software which can be deployed across multiple departments and sites as needed.

• The price of the tool compared to the amount of time it saves me is a staggering number.
• With DeepCrawl I can leave no stone unturned, which helps establish Agency credibility with clients.
