    For a small business or individual Commun.it could be used to quickly and efficiently grow an audience. Using the featured hashtag functionality in particular means that, instead of wading through various searches on Twitter, all the information is at your finger-tips and you can act on it accordingly. I think it would have benefits for businesses of multiple sizes however a smaller business might find the price-point prohibitive.

    It's a very good tool. It covers every need we have for social media listening & monitoring. Bad thing is that those who were selling us the software were not much concerned about costs and were not reducing although there are a lot of market leaders like Sprinklr who are really good with compensation & value addition

    Cons
    Commun.it Inc.
    • Be prepared, you'll receive a lot of emails from commun.it. They keep you engaged by reminding you to return to your dashboard. But they also will send several emails trying to get you to upgrade.
    • "Thanks for the retweet" and "Thanks to the high-value members" aren't tactics I like to use on Twitter.
    • On the free version, you are only allowed 20 actions a day. This goes by in a flash, would love to have a few more.

    • I’d love better graphics when I pull reports.
    • The sentiment data is still inaccurate.
    • We are unable to weed out all mentions of the arena associated with the bank.

    Ben Farkas was the representative that worked with us on this project, while we have been very excited with the work he provided, especially the customer service, we just did not have enough time with the product hands on to be comfortable giving it the 10 we think it deserves. As the Data tracking was done beyond our expectations and the finished product (infographic) were all excellent, we used this service to fill our need in being shorthanded to cover the data ourselves. Synthesio provided outstanding customer service, their data tracking and materials where top notch, just we lacked the hands on experience to speak to everyday use.

    Everything we needed was handled, in many cases during the first time we used Synthesio the representative made adjustments and explained them to us, some things we did not even consider when setting up the service.

    Tweepsmap's audience and engagement tools aren't as powerful as Commun.it's, but they're far more trustworthy. I also like their tool for detecting inactive users (followed accounts who haven't tweeted in 2 or 6 months). I would actually consider shelling out for their paid tools, which sound quite useful (for instance, location-based statistics).

    I have used Meltwater, Hootsuite for the same tracking purpose. Every tool has it own pros and cons. The best way to decide is go by the reviews of the people who have actually used it. Budget is yet another factor to consider.
