gShift vs. UpContent

gShift's pace of development is pretty amazing and they are very responsive to enhancement requests and other feedback on their solutions. gShift is well-suited for an agency environment where multiple clients need the basics in keyword rankings and website analytics and PPC reporting integration. gShift is less suited for a large organizations with multiple properties or web presences that are all integrated but require silos for reporting purposes or any type of parent-child reporting relationship that necessitates reporting at the property level as well as summarized reporting for all properties.

UpContent is effective for helping you:

• Gather information several different content sources
• Leverage curated content with social media, email newsletters, and on your website to help you provide audiences with important information
• Curate content topics by vertical for use in ABM -- you can give reps topic hubs to keep themselves up-to-date. Plus, it's a great way for them to find content to use as "conversation starters with their prospects.

I love that UpContent integrates with HubSpot, Rasa.io, SocialBee and other tools that we use on a daily basis.

• Minor bugs and defects are an ongoing issue - for example, PDF export capability for custom dashboards seems to be down frequently. While these type of defects are always resolved in 1-2 weeks, the fact that some of them keep reoccurring is an ongoing frustration.
• Custom Dashboard functionality is limited to pre-set defaults as far as what data points or "beacons" as gShift calls them, that you could pull.

• I'd like an option to use UpContent to curate content into a blog post -- to make it easy to do "news round-up" type posts.
