Chose Moz Link Explorer
I picked because I have more experience with Moz.
Chose Moz Link Explorer
I think Moz Link Explorer is a great add-on to the overall Moz tool, but compared to Ahrefs, it’s not as robust because Ahrefs' main focus is on the backlink profile. I like SEMRush’s function of being able to reach out to websites directly from the platform and track all of …
Chose Moz Link Explorer
When it still existed, Open Site Explorer was one of, if not the, best freemium SEO tools. Not only did its free-tier offer amazing insights and data for SEO strategy, but its paid program offered additional resources for SEO. I think it worked better than screaming frog …
Chose Moz Link Explorer
Ahrefs is an awesome tool and, I'd say, more in-depth than Open Site Explorer. It tends to give more detailed lists of inbound links. But, we use Open Site Explorer because we use other tools in Moz Pro. We track our domain authority (a Moz concept) and we use the MozBar to …
Chose Moz Link Explorer
Ahrefs is much more comprehensive than Open Site Explorer. If you are in need of a deep backlink analysis there are better options out there for your money. If you need a quick look at the state of a client's backlink profile than OSE is for you. It will give you the top …
Chose Moz Link Explorer
Yahoo! Site Explorer is no longer available outside of a Bing Webmaster Tools account. While there are plenty of fee-based link evaluation tools, Moz's Open Site Explorer provides a robust set of features and metrics in its free version that no other site can match. Moz also …

Chose Ryte
WooRank is slightly ahead, but the integration with Google Analytics is a real advantage of the solution. The full access to all functionalities in the trail helps to appreciate Ryte. Both UIs are quite the same in terms of designs or user experience.
Chose Ryte
We started using OnPage.org as it was highly recommended by some consultants. Although after using it for few months, we realized that it has very limited "exclusive" information that only this tool can provide.

User Testimonials
Moz Link ExplorerRyte
Likelihood to Recommend
It is helpful if you are trying to understand where a site stands in terms of the links coming to it from different websites. It is less helpful in terms of providing specific actions or steps to take to get more links. However, it is a part of a larger Moz package so other areas provide information that can help there.

It is great if your SEO team is young and getting to learn different tools. Or if you don't have access to programmers easily, to crawl and collect some data for you.

Pros
  • It links in with Moz’s domain authority concept, which we use as our main metric of how well our SEO works.
  • It shows you which sites link to you, and ranks to them by domain authority. This helps us understand where our best inbound links come from, and to hopefully target those valuable partners for more links.
  • It shows you which keywords you rank for, your position on the search engine results pages for each keyword, and how difficult it is to rank for those keywords. We use this to spot where we rank on the second or third page for medium difficulty keywords. We’ll then write content to target those keywords.

Cons
  • Lack of instant export of data. Adds to a queue rather than being instant.
  • Advanced reports are needed for larger websites and come at the cost of a subscription to Moz Pro.

Support Rating
I’m not qualified to give a rating for this because I’ve never used support specifically for Moz Link Explorer. On the site there are “what’s new” and “help” sections to help those who need further assistance. Also there is a ton of great content regarding SEO and backlinks on the Moz website.
