Read full review Cons Leadfeeder has basic lead Tagging capabilities and some native integrations. It would be great to see more lead Activity Tracking and integration capabilities that sync with sales tools so a team could hypothetically keep their eyes on Leadfeeder-only while updating the CRM/sales tool. Read full review A more readily understandable visual guide to a visitor's pathway through your site would help understand what keeps a reader on-site. The total page view number for the day should be more readily visible--on the overview page, not just by going to Posts>Historical. Maintain the archive for longer than a year under all plans--it's a shame to lose year-on-year data quickly. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Leadfeeder is the best anonymous visitor tracking software platform that I've ever used. Sitting as a layer on top of Google Analytics, the tool consistently provides us with accurate intelligence of what our hottest prospects are looking at while visiting our site. The Leadfeeder customer support is top notch and the company is always coming out with new updates that further improve the technology. On top of all of this, Leadfeeder integrates with Slack and our CRM, allowing me to continue to do my job without having to switch between various platforms throughout the day.

Read full review Support Rating I rate this question this way solely because I haven't requested any support. I feel where I will eventually get support would be when we take Parse.ly up on some training that is being offered. We are looking to do that at some point after the first of the year and when our schedules support it.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Leadfeeder is very easy to set up, use, and maximize functionality. It is also easy to train. Other tools have a higher cost of acquisition and ownership. Plus, the customer support and training are helpful and very accessible! It's great for small to mid-market businesses.
Read full review Parse.ly does pretty well compared to
Chartbeat , particularly when it comes to historical information and analysis options that are easy for employees to use after some short training. The onboarding for Parse.ly is intuitive, and the scheduled reports take away basically all of the inconvenience associated with regular metrics reviewing. But
Chartbeat wins in its social audience tracking because it can source traffic to a specific social post, which can show you exactly how your audience is coming to your content and where you need to put your content to be sure you get that audience.
Read full review Return on Investment It has helped support us to understand our market and if our website is properly communicating to and providing value to that market We currently do not have the sales staff to go after potentially qualified organizations that visit the site but don't convert but it is a strategy we will employ at some point. Read full review Sometimes in meetings our editorial director will point out stories that didn't perform well. To us, that means readers don't really care about the topic, so we'll pivot away from writing about that in the future. That might not be "business objectives" though. Read full review ScreenShots
