    Conductor
    Conductor is a great tool to use when we're planning and optimizing content around specific trends. It also helps us track our on-going performance as well, which is great to help us improve. Conductor is less ideal for content that has a quick turnaround time or pieces where SEO isn't a priority, also if you're looking to manage content publishing directly. It's more useful when it comes to strategy and optimization for in-depth pieces.

    Profound is a great AEO platform, with so much information and insights available around what competitors are doing and what prospects are searching for, and how we are cited. The down side is also just too much information and without enough resources or a full time person using the platform, it's difficult to know what to prioritize

    seoClarity is great for keyword reporting, ranking tracking, and competitor keyword research. One thing I particularly like is there are no limits on exports because I tend to do a lot of my keyword research processes in Google Sheets; I like to have the ability to export large datasets from the tools I'm using. Unlike Ahrefs and SEMRush, there aren't silly low limits on these exports in seoClarity.

    Pros
    Conductor
    • When I need to quickly determine what Google features our keywords are ranking for: Featured Snippets, Carousels, Rich Snippets, Sitelinks, PAA boxes, etc.
    • The ability to create highly customizable dashboards that provide a one-page view of insights for the specific web properties you are tracking.
    • A content guidance tool that is unmatched by any other product available in the market.

    Cons
    Conductor
    • Backlink tracking/reporting (would like to see backlinks more easily and maybe backlink opportunities if possible)
    • Custom content briefs (right now I move the brief from the platform version into our own in-house Word doc template because it is more detailed. Would love to be able to customize the brief that is set up within Conductor so that we can do it all in one place.)

    Conductor enables high-value SEO activity. There are a lot of moving parts in SEO and I'm always open to products that fit our requirements, but Conductor has built a stronger argument for its value after we subscribed than it had when we subscribed -- that's rare.

    Usability
    Conductor
    I check features like the InsightStream every Monday to monitor any major losses or gains in performance. These are easily digested and save me tons of time searching for these insights manually. If there's anything "worth calling home about" I can easily add insights into a workspace and create a report to communicate these results. It's super easy to use Conductor with a team and across departments.

    Profound tracks A LOT of data, which is great, but it can also be overwhelming to look at/digest all the raw data without their internal measurements.

    Compared to other tools, including Semrush and Ahrefs, the overall capability and scope of reporting within seoClarity is right up there. However, a dated user interface and some laggy experience when hovering over charts slightly let down the tool. Other than these tiny items, this tool beats the competition quite easily.

    I definitely recommend their professional services for getting started. It got our account 90% of the way to where we needed to be in order to gain value from it. In fact, I'd suggest that with few exceptions (such as, you have a staff that is already familiar with the platform and doesn't need any help), the quick start services over the first 30-90 days should be a standard part of onboarding with any new client. It definitely got us to the point of gaining ROI from the solution and, in turn, will make it easier to justify renewal and continued investment in it.

    We didn't use another product previously, we used an agency that did everything for us, so bringing Organic SEO in-house was why we went with Conductor. I have used other products in other roles and at other companies and each has its strengths. Conductor is good for large enterprises

    Semrush is much more mature for SEO but lacks the focus needed to be effective for AEO. Because Profound is build for AEO from the ground up, all of the associated features are optimized to be useful for AEO (for example focusing purely on topic visibility). SEMRush's AI Search tools feel a bit muddled in the system they have set up for SEO

    • Conductor helped us aim at low hanging fruits for quick wins, which increased our traffic
    • With Conductor's tool, it was easy to look at general keywords where we were already ranking, but not good enough, and then focus around what we could do to increase our positioning
    • All this extra traffic, gave us more leads, therefore more sales!
