CTM vs. Semrush

[CallTrackingMetrics] is well suited for HIPAA Compliant Call Tracking when working with medical clients and is great for all clients who do online sales or patient intake. Clients with low volume of calls may not get enough value for the cost of this platform.

This is suited to plan for keywords in a single market, but it struggles when you need to consolidate several markets. It is well-suited to discover new keywords directly related to the ones being used currently to expand the content the company is creating to get better results.

• Very easy to set up and use. You can create as many tracking numbers and sources as you need. Easily organize and filter them for results and placing the code is so simple. Anyone can use this software.
• Listening to the calls makes life simple. We can hear what the potential lead said and record feedback to better our marketing efforts. You can even flag or email the call recordings if you need to share inside or outside your organization.
• Call reporting is a breeze! You can easily filter your sources, call duration, time and more and reports are extremely accurate.
• Cost is well worth what you get from the software.

• Great visuals for keyword position tracking, love that you can see the page that is ranking
• Enjoyed the auto-generated reporting feature (specifically in the context of keyword position tracking)
• Shows many different and useful views for competitive research
• Great templated keyword research tools for those who are not as hands-on with SEO
• I LOVE the Keyword Magic Tool for honing in on longtail, high-opportunity keywords

• Can get pricy.
• More complex integrations may need professional services.
• No push notifications for incoming SMS on mobile app (non agent).

• Extra seats can be expensive, as [an] agency with multiple team members this can be frustrating
• Backlink data is not great, misses out a lot of backlinks (better off using a specialist backlink tool like Link research tools LRT)
• Tracking multiple keywords, across multiple clients can be costly

I [previously] used Semrush for many years and I cannot find any other tool being so complete and easy to use.

The interface is a little less intuitive than it could be. The data is often available but filtering and manipulating the data can be a little difficult at times. Expanded comparisons would be helpful since most of the time seeing more than a few competitors at a time allows for a better sense of how to forecast.

Semrush available when you need it!

SemRush performs well with few errors!

I'm in a FB group for Semrush paid users and it amazing! They are fast to respond, take suggestions and help with questions. I have not felt alone in using this product at all. Highly recommend their support team. When I had an issue I can jump into the group and they will help get me the right person to help or even tag their programmers to look at something that is going on. Love the group!

I did it by myself and do not have a comment!

CallTrackingMetrics has stood up well compared to Salesforce. Being that we are a high volume call center for schools, it has been very good for the company. I feel that CallTrackingMetrics is really good for our company compared to Salesforece CMS.
