Cvent Hotel RFP Management vs. Social Mention

For me, I'm in a college town so when we have a tournament we get flooded with RFPs from schools for the same dates. Lead Scoring allows me to see which of the leads is better suited for our needs over those dates. For example, a school that only wants to stay for one night because they are only an hour away is less desirable than a school that has to fly in and needs to stay for 4 nights!

Social Mention is a great tool for monitoring social media. This Tool can also be used to search specifically taking the keywords in the blogs, comments, news etc. It offers a third party API for users. It can be used to send email to clients of their brand performance data. This tool can indicate if your mentions are angry, happy or neutral but the data can't be reliable.

• \New channels, mediums and metrics influencing the customer journey are introduced every day.
• Committing to a lead scoring model that doesn't dynamically adjust as your customers do, will produce inaccuracies.
• Without manually adjusting on a regular basis, miscalculations won't be addressed in a timely manner.

I love that Social Mention is so easy to use. It does not take a long time to learn how to navigate the site when you need information quickly. I don't use it as much in my new job, but I recommend it for basic monitoring and when you need social media information right away

While it's easy to use and pay for it's totally useless.

Cvent is well suited for planners and those they are planning with to distribute and receive RFP to a variety of locations and venues. Wonderful!

It doesn't work as well since we changed our name. We used to have a very unique twitter handle etc. so it was easier for social mention to find us. For folks who have unique names it's excellent if you don't it may not be that helpful.

There are no other products like Cvent Lead Scoring that I have used or evaluated. The reason for this is because I've never had to stray from Lead Scoring, because it has been so beneficial.

Social Mention streamed everything together, calculated my sentiment for me, allows me to filter what results I am personally looking for, extract my RSS feed and navigate to one of the channels of buzz.

• Summary Lead. A summary lead is the most common and traditional lead in journalism.
• Single-Item Lead. This lead focuses on just one or two elements of a summary lead.
• Delayed Identification Lead.
• Creative Lead.
• Short Sentence Lead.
• Analogy Lead.

• The paid-version actually had a negative ROI for us as it would sometimes feed us topically inappropriate articles and didn't allow us to filter by source so as to eliminate inappropriate blogs and inappropriate news sources (like highly politically partisan ones).
