    AppFollow is well suited if you only operate in a few app store countries and don't have a high volume of keywords that you are looking to rank for. This is, of course, the free plan. Besides that AppFollow is well suited for communication with other apps - they have an open API and other connections to a ton of third-party analytical tools.

    • Sometimes I find it takes time to find exactly where a certain analysis I had looked at previously is when I go to replicated. Website could be streamlined that way.
    • You can only compare 5 companies at a time on the website but often I'd like to compare more. You can always download the data to compare two different searches, but that adds time.

    Similarweb is a very easy to use tool and gives us data on the go. It takes only a few clicks to get the relevant data. However, I have deducted 2 points as it only allows us to add 5 websites at a time on the platform, and data availability is only for the last 37 months.

    Support is just helpful and effective when you need them; we have only needed to contact them once about a misunderstanding while setting up our Market Analysis. Since we don't really contact them too often, it's hard to offer anything but a positive rating from the single positive experience we had with tech support.

    While App Annie is extremely robust and pulls in data from acquisition channels, app stores, and elsewhere, it can be quite overwhelming at times. If you are looking for more simple and just keyword positioning then definitely look at AppFollow. Apart from the two platforms themselves, I've had numerous contact experiences with both AppFollow and App Annie. The winner is definitely AppFollow with a less aggressive approach and a higher willingness to go above and beyond to make sure all questions are answered. With App Annie I was bombarded with a ton of sleazy, sales emails to purchase their product.

    Whilst data.ai has strong app competitor intelligence data, Similarweb do a better job of showing the upstream and downstair behaviour across desktop and mobile web. Additionally, Similarweb's channel marketing mix goes deeper and allows us to understand a wider set of channels and be able to get a holistic understanding of our overall marketing strategy performance
