Mention vs. RADAAR

I would ask if they have ever used a software like Mention before, if not, I would totally suggest they start with it. It's easy to use, easy to set up and while it may be confusing at first, it's probably the cheapest and most effective. My suggestion to a new marketer or first-time user of this kind of software would be Mention.

RADAAR is very well suited for bulk content scheduling across different social profiles. It's great to store passwords for different profiles in the passbook so you don't have to remember them all the time. It's really great for your own work, however, the post-approval feature for clients is not released yet. So if post-approval is a major concern for the users, they should wait for the RADAAR team to roll out this feature.

• Mention has nice support and implementation function. They will do some of the harder work for you (e.g. refining your alerts).
• It helps us to easily track and rank influencers, which improves the effectiveness of our Public Relations (PR).
• You can filter and refine alerts e.g. by language. This is useful if you want to break into new markets.

• Bulk scheduling of content for multiple social media profiles with CSV import
• Real-time monitoring of all the social profiles with the Stream modules
• Social Inbox displays the details of messages and comments done on our profiles. Plus the ability to filter them and reply from Radaar

• Yes, I just said it is clean and easy to use, but there is always room for improvement in even the most perfect software. I would personally love to see the ability to custom message options a bit more or just customize the look and feel of your dashboard.
• Bugs. Mention works great 95% of the time. The other 5%, you may run into major crashes or see mentions that you cleared coming back, etc., but nothing that is a deal breaker or unexpected with a tool like this. Worth noting nonetheless!
• Better plans. This is a small issue, but I wish the lower plans has some basic reporting.

• Content creation and the Calendar should be in different sections as the calendar makes the tool slower.
• Ability to crop images directly in the content creation window and also the option to add a Watermark to the created content.
• Bulk delete the posts which are no longer needed.
• Ability to add Labels in the posts in bulk or add an option to add labels at the import CSV option
• Introduce an editor like google docs for the WordPress posts creation and scheduling.
• Media library should be added to upload and host images and videos for use in posts.
• For Twitter, there should option to Retweet the performing posts and setup automations.

RADAAR is a robust tool, and it is constantly being developed. As an early adopter, I can say that this is definitely a steal. Who knows how powerful RADAAR can be in the near future. It constantly follows the lead of all the leading platforms, and it adapts in every way possible. Again, a community-based SAAS development makes this tool very very useful.

Mention works quickly and its user interface is easy to use. Alerts update regularly and I've never noticed any lag. It integrates with our CRM via Zapier, but this is not something which we use yet. The only thing I would say is that it takes time for Mention to reach its full potential. It only starts to rank influences from when you set up the alert, so it can take a few weeks to build a map of your influencers.

Mention always responded promptly and gave excellent support. Any problem we had with the software, from login trouble to broken features were addressed quickly. There was once a problem with our quota, where we were unable to see results we should have been able to see. We sent an email, and within an hour, the situation was resolved!

I have gotten in touch with the support team just a few times since RADAAR is quite easy to use. But on those few occasions, the team had been very responsive and applied the needed urgency. Even the founder is very active and attentive to user concerns and needs. The future is indeed bright.

Currently, there are no other tools available with the features that Mention has possible according to our knowledge and experience. We firmly believe that Mention has placed themselves in a category all of their own. In the ten years, our company has been around. We have yet to come across any other companies like Mention. Pretty sure there may be another company or competition. None like Mention in our opinion are available, however.

• Mention has had a positive impact on my business because it gives people the impression that I was following them, even if I might not have been. It makes me appear active on all social media platforms, even if I ONLY look at my mentions each day!
• Because I have only used the free plan but have benefitted greatly, I would say that my ROI is fantastic!
• The only negative impact that Mention has is that I do get a daily email in my inbox, and it is one more thing to check. However, it is worth the time.
