Coveragebook vs. TVEyes

Coveragebook is very well suited to preparing client reports. Links make it easy for clients to share the coverage within their companies by forwarding a link. The PDF reports also look great. There is an option to provide all the pages of a piece of coverage, or just the first, which is nice when a client is on one page of a multi-page article or product roundup. This way they don't have lots of extra pages that don't feature their product or brand.

Simply put, TVEyes is a wonderful monitoring suite that enables us to quickly access broadcast clips from campaigns we run on behalf of our clients. It's far more efficient than the old-school tape delivery companies, but it does have room for improvement. If you're running a campaign that's likely to result in broadcast coverage, TVEyes is probably the best option for monitoring and reporting. The same holds true if you are running a paid media campaign that includes added-value broadcast elements.

• The design template is relatively standard and doesn't leave much room for change.
• The Coveragebook team is still working on how to improve the social share reporting function.

• The clip editing feature, while useful and important, is fairly clunky. There could be an improvement in the way you fine-tune what you need.
• Downloading clips is a multi-step process that could be far less involved.

I have had a few questions while using Coveragebook, some of which were answered in the FAQs, but others were not. I emailed customer support and had responses within one business day. (I'm in California and Coveragebook is in the UK, I believe.) All questions were answered to my satisfaction quickly.

We used to build coverage reports from scratch in PPT or send coverage links or PDFs of each piece of news to clients. Coveragebook is the first formal media coverage platform that we have used, and it suits all of our needs. It helps us save time, create great-looking reports, and present clients with detailed data about their media coverage.

TVEyes offers better pricing and easier access when compared to the Critical Mention platform. It's also easier to use and faster. Cision and Meltwater just don't offer the same depth of access to coverage as TVEyes. TrendKite is a complementary piece of software we use in-house for media monitoring, and they just partnered with TVEyes for broadcast coverage, so there's a lot of consistency in what we're monitoring and reporting.

Incentivized

• Quick and efficient tool to visually show the articles/webpages our company is mentioned in with high-level data for each site.

Incentivized

• It's essential to be able to share coverage with clients, and clients can be impatient. TVEyes gives us the ability to access and share a clip quickly. That keeps clients happy.
• The cost of the subscription is fairly low in exchange for the ability to access a universal broadcast coverage platform like TVEyes.
