    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.

    Sprinklr Modern Research offers us a good amount of coverage when we want to search for our chosen keywords or brand mentions across the wider social & news landscape. Certain platforms are of course harder to track than others, while others offer a huge amount of opportunity and Sprinklr does a fantastic job of visualising this. We find that image recognition is one area where there is room for improvement.

    Pros
    Mention
    • 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.

    • Product Insight — Being able to add in our products so we can have positive and negative insights.
    • Community Insights — We were able to watch out community and see what they were talking about.
    • Crisis Monitoring — Being able to have dashboards that would monitor for crises across the internet.

    Cons
    Mention
    • 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.

    • Include more sources in listening, every time we share listening data with a wider team we also make them aware of listening limitations as our data is very often challenged
    • 'Uncategorized' age category in demographics for listening - it's always a majority which doesn't look great
    • Overall the main feedback is that there is so much data available but it's very difficult to extract any insights from listening/benchmarking. Some inspiration/advice would be much appreciated.

    The interface is user-friendly and quite intuitive. However, the tool is very complete and the app can seem a bit dense at times with a lot of different places and categories. It just takes a bit of time to adjust before being a great tool

    Performance
    Mention
    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.

    Support Rating
    Mention
    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!

    We have had some good experiences, especially during renewal periods, but support has suddenly disappeared when the renewal is completed. Also, while we have multiple teams, those deemed more important or more likely to expand their purchase are given more attention. This decision comes from Sprinklr, not internally, so they are prioritizing support for teams which are actually not the teams paying the majority of the money for the service.

    Mention
    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.

    They are not included in all the things. It is integrated with different AI technologies. I like working with the Sprinklr team and building my own dashboards for new initiatives. The insights presented about the market are unmatched. See what people say about my brand or category like the hashtag research function for Instagram and Twitter. It would even suggest hashtags. Ease of use—from bullion coding/keyword building to analytics dashboarding

    Return on Investment
    Mention
    • 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.

    • It has definitely improved our analytical insights by making the platform flexible enough to be able to deep dive and pull up a report on any metric and drive it.
    • Real-time data is the boss of all. It helps us fix things with engagement team before the damage is done.
    • User friendly UI has made it easy to operate and increase productivity.
