    I recommend Alexa for small businesses where you don't need much customization. Otherwise, I think big companies should implement their own tools.

    I think LinkNotion is well suited to make visually appealing diagrams. Super useful for presentations. I would say to do more traditional spreadsheeting exercise, I would default to Excel

    • It sources website analytics for most websites we're interested in tracking.
    • Each website's dashboard is easy to understand and pull numbers from.
    • We can get very nitty gritty with the numbers we're pulling or keep it simple by just pulling basic website visitor stats.

    LinkNotions overall usability is not bad. I wouldn't say the software is exceptionally intuitive but it's easy to set up and get going

    I connected with customer support a couple of times throughout using LinkNotions. I found that it was easy to reach technical support. I find that the product works well and there's enough support articles online

    If you want to focus only on your own web analytics, then Google Analytics is the way to go as no product will give you more accurate data. However, what Google Analytics cannot do is the competitive analysis functionality, which is where a product like Alexa comes in. It's about on par with SimilarWeb in many ways, they just go about the analytics in slightly different ways. Really, it comes down to personal preference as to which you prefer. Thankfully both offer free trials so you can test out the platforms before fully committing. SimilarWeb may be a bit better in terms of mobile web data.

    I would say Microsoft Excel, Air Table and SmartRow are all valid competitors. Excel is great for preforming calculations and building large spreadsheets, automating monthly tasks. But Excel doesn't provide the visual appeal that LinkNotes does
