Based off the price, I'd be hesitant to blindly recommend Topsy unless there is a need for the kind of big data it provides access to. If access to every single Tweet ever sent about your brand is important, then there is nothing else out there will do what Topsy does. At $12,000 per user, this is definitely not a product for the small social team, but if you manage a larger brand where reporting and brand sentiment mean a lot, then you owe it to yourself to evaluate Topsy Pro

• Cleanliness and easy to find the numbers you wanted to analyze
• Easy set up
• Usability

• Access to every single tweet ever sent since the start of Twitter.
• Immediate access to results - extremely easy to generate search queries.
• Multiple ways to visualize data.

• I cannot think of any

• Pricing is steep and on a per-user basis.
• Limited amount of data sources - Twitter, links and videos.

I no longer use the product, however if I was in need of the product again I would definitely recommend and renew the product.

Quite simply, there is no other option out there with the amount of data we can get from Topsy. Others (like Radian6) have a large amount of data, but it isn't as easy to find, and creating reports is too cumbersome. Report generation in Topsy takes seconds, not minutes

While both (Netvibes and Paper.li) are content aggregators, they perform very different functions. Netvibes is extremely useful when you are trying to catch up on the news on the go, come up with more content ideas based on the current trends and use the trending articles in your content marketing.
