Superior Methods of Social Listening
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Mention from other similar products?
An easy-to-use layout that lets you keep tabs on and evaluate many alerts simultaneously. The initial warning is free of charge. I like how everyone on the Internet, from social media to message boards, can contribute to a single database including all the times a certain term was used. What's more, you may respond without even having to leave the driver's seat.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One of Mention's strongest points is that it offers a whole suite of services that compliment one another, allowing us to better manage our brands and the public's perception of the work we do. The ability to create alerts inside alerts is one of the most intriguing aspects of putting up alerts for me. Our task is simplified by a factor of 10 because of this efficient filtering technology.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Lack of granularity in outcomes and in monitoring Share of Conversation. Access to past data is restricted to that which occurred after a stream search was initiated. Pricey and lacking in advanced features like Boolean and key word searches until you upgrade.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Some users may be put off by the seemingly endless stream of search results at first, believing that the service is just casting a wide net across the web and returning every result that it finds. You can obtain surprisingly precise results from it if you use the correct search phrases and filters, but only if you invest some effort into optimizing it. The negative aspect is that it may be helpful to make sure new hires get this throughout the onboarding process (maybe I missed that part).

: As in, "Mention, Excellent monitoring tool!
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Mention from other similar products?
An intuitive interface that allows you to monitor and analyzeseveral notifications at once. There is no charge for the first alert. I appreciate how all the social media sites and discussion boards, as well as the rest of the Internet, can feed their keyword mentions into a central repository. Also, you may answer without leaving the dashboard to do so.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It's an outstanding resource for handling all your social networking needs. You may use it to keep track of every single thing that has ever been written about anywhere online. That's because it has the requisite expertise to complete the task at hand. Your preferred mentions and outcomes may be monitored. Instantaneously, it will inform you of anything that occurs. In addition to being incredibly user-friendly, its UI is also highly professional. Since implementing Mention, not a single publication has gone missing from our office. The company's help desk staff is helpful and friendly.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There is a great deal of room for improvement in the search function. It's not Google, but it's not terrible, either. When tweaked little, its usefulness multiplies. Other from that, it was unable to make sense of acronyms or mere references. The price of the bundle should be reevaluated, since it may be out of reach for certain smaller establishments. Also, I don't like how many things are now locked behind a paywall.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you care about your brand's internet reputation, Mention is ideal in every circumstance. I've spent much of my working life in marketing, and I can tell you that listening to your customers is crucial. This is inspiration for any company or public relations group. You can make it happen with the help of Mention.
