MutualMind (discontinued) vs. Rakuten Advertising

Great company, clear communications, fast quarterly distributions and a fun way to get paid for shopping that you are already doing. I highly recommend this service. Why would you pass up the opportunity for free money? And the Chrome extension is a wonderful add-on! Great way to remind yourself when you are on a site that Rakuten honors.

• MutualMind gives us a view into the reach of social content we produce on behalf of our advertisers and the engagement that content generates with shoppers.

• Setup is also very easy. on-time payments and responsive support
• They make sure to offer means to the difficulties of each entrepreneur.

• MutualMind gauges sentiment around social conversations but does so with the standard margin of error found in most social analytics products. The nature of human conversation makes it difficult for a machine to categorize sentiment with 100% accuracy. MutualMind gets sentiment right between 50% to 70% which is within acceptable industry averages for this type of product. With additional tuning (which MutualMind provides) the accuracy levels will increase.

• Analytics could be more graphical instead of just a bunch on tables with numbers.
• After sale services can be improved to take detailed customer feedback.
• More options to customize currently available marketing solutions.

Reliability and flexibility (MutualMind's willingness to jointly produce new functionality)

As a company that's only 3 years old, MutualMind's toolset is quite usable but it could use some tweaks in the user interface, which they are constantly working on.

During a recent upgrade period, MutualMind had a small window of unavailability. I am confident they have addressed the root cause and do not foresee any future issues.

The product's performance has improved greatly in the last year and we anticipate seeing additional improvements in coming months based no planned infrastructure changes.

MutualMind has always been quick to address any issues or questions we have.

Not really...MutualMind was very professional and helped with all stages of our setup and implementation.

As mentioned before, Radian6 and Sysomos Heartbeat.

Rakuten has more features and when it comes to pricing, Rakuten Advertising is really worth its price because of its functionality and also the customer/client support is superb!
