    Moz Local is a great alternative as well as a compliment to Yext. The service has a smaller network but is just as powerful. The dashboard is super easy to load your location information into and allows the product to do the work by distributing the data across platforms. Issues are easily identifiable and can easily be corrected. Depending on your service level package, you also can have access to reviews and be able to monitor those as you see fit. I would strongly recommend this service to anyone who has a local business they are looking to get seen across the web. For a larger business, I'd consider a larger company with a bigger network.

    Do you currently use Google AdWords to drive new business for your website? Then you need WordStream. The best scenario where it has helped me is time. I used to spend easily 20 hours a week analyzing data, making minor changes, adjusting budgets, trying to just master Google AdWords! But now I'm able to spend maybe 2-3 hours a week on Google AdWords and put the rest of my attention on other responsibilities. WordStream has mastered making my time more efficient.

    • Definitely go with a consultant. It amazed me how quickly our consultant was able to understand our business and what we sell. He was the best resource for our newly-digitized marketing team.
    • The negative keywords section was a hugely helpful tool. It saved us from so much unnecessary spend while making it easy to add negatives.
    • How quickly changes implemented were updated on AdWords was amazing. It's live, so no lag and unnecessary spend.

    Cons

    • Expansion of network.
    • Needs to be easier to access, too many clicks within Moz suite.
    • Generally speaking, they are solid.

    • While the basic tools are pretty simple to use, the platform is actually pretty expansive and I don't feel like I've taken advantage of it (yet) as much as I could. It does require some training to get up to speed.
    • Support for Display ad campaigns is limited - this is mainly used as a way to optimize Search campaigns.
    • Reporting. I find the reporting setup to be a bit confusing and still rely on other sources for building out reports on our Adwords performance (Adwords itself and Google Analytics).

    I have not had any experience with the customer support team for platform issues, but the account representative checks in with us often and is always available to answer questions. We will usually get on quarterly review calls so that she can share any new updates to the platform and answer questions.

    Moz is just as good as Yext, the only major difference is the size of the network.

    WordStream is a little different from the competition. There are much more expensive solutions that manage the account for you with more features (Kenshoo, Marin, etc) and there are cheaper solutions out there that offer some of the features that WordStream provides; however, if a marketer wants to personally manage an account with some aided help than WordStream provides a great, cost-effective solution

    • I've already noted the time savings that WordStream has provided - at leats 5 hours a week (and I like to think that my time is pretty expensive/worth it).
    • Wordstream has paid for itself already, simply in removing junk from our AdWords account - junk keywords, junk AdWords groups, junk matching.
    • I think we'll find, over more time, that Wordstream will continue to provide outstanding value in dropping our CPA - once Google register sthe lack of junk, our CPC will continue to go down.

    Moz Local Screenshots

    Screenshot of GeoRank, which offers a precise view of how a business and competitors rank in Google’s local search results across different neighborhoods. Because search results change based on a person’s location, traditional rank tracking doesn’t show the full picture. With GeoRank, you can set grids around your service area, track keyword rankings at multiple points, and visualize performance on interactive maps. See where you’re winning, where competitors outrank you, and how your visibility changes over time. GeoRank helps uncover opportunities to strengthen local SEO and expand a brand's reach.Screenshot of Insights in Moz Local, which connect directly with a Google Business Profile to show how customers are finding and engaging with a business. Track key actions like website clicks, direction requests, and phone calls to understand how listing drives leads over time. See which search keywords bring people to a profile, spot trends, and uncover opportunities to improve visibility. Insights offer a deeper look at customer behavior.Screenshot of Listings AI, which helps to keep a business's listings optimized as markets, competitors, and customer behaviors change. By analyzing reviews, engagement signals, keywords, and competitor data, it generates tailored recommendations that follow SEO best practices and align with local search trends. You’ll see suggestions for categories, services, and attributes—each with clear impact metrics—so you know which updates will boost visibility. It is available with Elite plans (or as an add-on for Lite and Preferred).Screenshot of Locations in Moz Local, where users manage and update business details to keep listings accurate and consistent across the web. From one dashboard, you can edit core information like name, address, hours, services, categories, and attributes, as well as upload images and add custom fields. Auto-sync ensures changes are pushed to directories automatically, saving you time and preventing errors. You can also view edit history, set warnings to avoid duplicate content, and group locations for easier management.Screenshot of Networks in Moz Local. which offers a centralized view of all the directories, social platforms, and review sites a business can connect to. From here, you can see which locations are linked, ready to link, or need updates, and quickly manage connections across platforms like Google, Facebook, and Yelp. The Networks table shows linking status and highlights any missing data or issues.Screenshot of Reviews Sentiment in Moz Local, which helps understand how customers feel about a business by analyzing the language used in their reviews. Track sentiment trends over time, see top keywords driving positive or negative feedback, and explore interactive word clouds to quickly spot themes. With color-coded insights and keyword-level detail, you can identify what customers love, uncover areas for improvement, and take action to strengthen your reputation. Sentiment reports can be filtered, shared, or exported, so marketing teams stay aligned on customer feedback and business impact.
