Chose Awario
There are a lot of excellent options, but Awario has it all. I also originally got it as a lifetime deal, so I don't have to worry about paying for it ongoing.
Chose Awario
BuzzBundle is offered by the same company as Awario, and I used it before switching to Awario. It's a very solid desktop tool and allows for more monitoring than Awario (at least when comparing by price). However, Awario is web-based, which means you can utilize it from your …

If you're looking to stay on top of your brand's online presence and reputation, Awario is an essential tool. You never know where or when someone may be discussing your company, products, or services, so it really helps to have a service scanning the internet at all times to let you know when you're being talked about. Or if you're looking to find weaknesses with competitors you can monitor for negative mentions, and reach out to offer a better solution for these potential leads.

Cons
  • A better onboarding process would've gotten me hooked earlier
  • Better ongoing training and support, perhaps a certification process, would make this easier to customize for niche use cases.

Support Rating
I haven't had any actual issues with Awario, but the few times I have had questions the live chat agents were extremely helpful and quick to respond. They were polite, courteous, and patient when explaining different settings and/or pointing me to articles in the help center/knowledge base. I couldn't have asked for a better experience when it came to getting the help and answers I was looking for.
