    ispionage, inc.
    iSpionage is ideal for when you want to get a feel for the competitor landscape for a potential client. You can just pop in, throw in the URL, and see which competitors populate, then look at the average spend. I wish I could look back at like yearly average spend, easier (default on last 1 month). But it's great to get quick glimpses and build some quick talking points around that. I don't think it's all that good for organic keyword analysis. I find the organic interface a bit clunky, with lots of information that I don't feel is all that relevant. Stick with paid search insights.

    For agencies, Kantar Advertising and Paid Search Intelligence can help inform spending in a more intelligent way and optimise performance when it comes to campaigns; however for smaller brand owners the cost and scope may be prohibitive and as such may not be a one size fits all model, unfortunately. Conclusively, to get a foot ahead the competitive with increased market intelligence it can be the ideal choice

    Alternatives Considered
    ispionage, inc.
    iSpionage is nowhere near Semrush (and to a lesser extent SpyFu) in terms of usefulness for competitive intelligence, keyword research, or strategic planning. It has nowhere near the depth of data or level of tools available in other tools.

    Kantar
    It's clear that Kantar Advertising and Paid Search Intelligence is the established player; and from the experience that we've had I would have no hesitation in recommending Kantar Advertising and Paid Search Intelligence, however my experience is a lot more in tune with this than others. Others such as BrandVerity can seem a little overwhelming to a newcomer as well

    Return on Investment
    ispionage, inc.
    • It's hard to quantify, but I believe I've saved quite a bit of time and energy in competitor research due to iSpionage
    • iSpionage has helped me get more knowledgeable, quicker, to gain trust with potential clients—again, not really measurable
    • I've surely maximized my clients' advantage by recommending proper competitive spend based on what I'm seeing in iSpionage
