    ClickGAURD is highly suitable for detecting and preventing fraudulent clicks and helps generate higher revenues with the same marketing budgets. The reports created by ClickGUARD are also very helpful in understanding the impact and returns on the campaigns. It also helps identifies the geographies from where the fraudulent clicks are coming to help us take preventive measures. Having detailed documentation to get it deployed and get users onboarded quickly will be very helpful.

    SE Ranking is a fantastic tool if you are a marketing agency or freelancer looking for a single tool for the majority of your SEO work. It also includes B2B tools like their lead generation widget and white label reports that can help you generate new leads for your business. It would get 10 stars if their database was larger to accommodate research for small geographic areas, but they are always expanding their database so it may just be a matter of time. Research SE Ranking has pricing plans available for every budget.

    Pros
    ClickGUARD
    • The real-time notifications are one of the best features of ClickGUARD for me.
    • Automatic malicious click deflection is also a feature that I appreciate.
    • There have been instances where a large number of clicks were made, but the resulting conversions were much below expectations.

    • Rank racking. It’s really important for us that the ranks are tracked accurately.
    • Monitoring of changes made on the website. We’ve found this feature really useful.
    • Reports. This includes auto reports and manuals. We can easily and quickly create reports to check our SEO progress month by month.

    Cons
    ClickGUARD
    • The one thing I've noticed that I believe is a disadvantage would have to be the lack of support on weekends or holidays which is understandable but at the same time, I'm sure people expect to still be supported right around the clock if that is what is advertised.

    • I really don't think SE Ranking has many flaws. They are also rolling out an app at the moment - SE Ranking Pro - need to test that one.
    • Some more video tutorials on the site on how to use some tools would be helpful.
    • More in-system popups would be more helpful too.

    They had a huge update recently and the platform is now even better. Although not all the tools are yet in the new design.

    I actually haven't found the need to use their customer support as yet but I'm sure that they are knowledgable and would assist any way they can.

    The support is great but they don't have 24/7 support. And time zones can also be an issue sometimes. On the other hand there are plenty of guides and videos around to get yourself started. I never really needed support for "big" issues. And the help I got was good enough.

    formerly know as PPC Protect, now known as Lunio. we side by side user lunio as well and only problem with lunio was pricing. no doubt lunio has better feature set to stack against ClickGaurd but we didn't required that many features to begin with. ClickGaurd is simple solution for us and we are planning to explore it full before moving to any other platform

    SE Ranking is better than Serpstat or MOZ or Ahrefs when it comes to tracking keyword rankings, but it lacks in every other SEO category, such as onsite and offsite SEO metrics, content analysis, etc... It's a good choice for agencies that are interested in tracking keywords for their clients, but other than that it underperforms in every other SEO category.

    Return on Investment
    ClickGUARD
    • Prior to acquiring Clickguard, I wasn't even able to trust the numbers I was seeing and my money was being wasted. Since getting this app, there has been a total turn around in conversions, and sales have increased.

    • The website "health" report has allowed us to fix things that Google might find strange or cause us to lose rankings, which has been very helpful.
    • It's given us more visibility into what exactly our SEO management company is doing and how they are performing, and if things are changing or not. It's very easy to see right from the dashboard.
    • Being able to see how our competitors stack up against us has helped us know where to improve, what to focus on, and how to be even better.
