Chartbeat vs TrackMaven

• Instant insight for newsrooms: What are readers reading, on what platform, how long are they staying?
• Headline testing: Allows us to try multiple versions of the 'sell' for the story to understand what interests different sorts of readers
• Segmentation of audience: Allows us to understand not only where readers come from (search, social, direct, etc.) but also how loyal they are and how long they stay
• Proper engagement time: Too often our industry obsesses on dwell time, but Chartbeat's active engaged time gives us a true sense of how long we really engage people for
• Simple actions: For example, the Chartbeat overlay tells us where people on average leave a story, so it helps us take actions quickly

• For the foreseeable future. TrackMaven is focused on measuring social sharing. We wish it also captured information about pageviews and monthly unique visitors -- the kind of data that lives inside Google Analytics -- or integrated it through an API. It would be exceptionally helpful not just to have all those metrics in one place, but also to easily measure correlations between them.

• The most positive impact is that it gives us realtime outage emails — faster than our server provider does. So we know within seconds if one of our sites is down. This has proven an invaluable part of Chartbeat
• Another great feature of Chartbeat is the multiple sites dashboard, so I can see traffic to all my sites at once.

• Paid Search & Social - TrackMaven has given us the ability to develop smarter social advertising and reach our audience with the right messages
• Account Analytics - the account overview we receive in TrackMaven of our own social media accounts is duplicative of what we already get through other software
• Funnel Analysis - If we can better see which efforts are paying off with leads, at a granular level, we can use our social spend budget more wisely
