Read full review 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.
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review 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. Read full review Cons 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.) Read full review 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. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Conductor has the right amount of tools for our usage. The support is also really good so we get help when we need it. The tool is well priced for the amount of functionality you get. There is plenty more I could say here but I'll keep it short and sweet.
Read full review Usability 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.

Read full review Support Rating It's been sort of off and on in the 2 years I've used it. The live chat has been really helpful many times, and they're quick to respond. We had different support contacts but they've all been good. I think they've recently changed the way they provide support that I believe will be more dedicated and hands-on
Read full review 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.
Read full review In-Person Training Our in house SEO manager trained everyone. It was easy to learn and he was well versed with the product. Any questions we had he was able to answer or reach out to support to find the answer
Read full review Implementation Rating 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.

Read full review Alternatives Considered We have looked at a few other competitors or other SAAS options but none of them offered the number and quality of tools and resources that Conductor offered especially for the flexible pricing we found with Conductor
Read full review 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.

Read full review Return on Investment 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! Read full review 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. Read full review ScreenShots
