SEOGadget for Excel vs. Similarweb

SEOGadget is ideal when using vendors like Moz and Majestic for analysis of your backlinks. It is not the tool to use if you need to gain more backlinks or want to increase your backlink. It can help you edit your backlink profile and understand where the links come from. It is probably ideal for in-house teams studying larger sites with lots of links and trying to understand their link partners, or an agency/freelancer that needs to import data from multiple sources to help clients with link profiles. It is not the tool to target new link opportunities, but with some ingenuity you could probably use it for this if you an access your competitor data. It's also good for anchor analysis which is something few teams really look into.

• More flexibility in creating tables would be easier, as not all tables were able to be created this might be user error in some cases
• More data imports would be nice this could be more of a one-and-done package, right now it only imports links
• Added functionality to analyze data would be nice

• Top Pages Data: In the past, Similarweb PRO provided extensive data on a website's top pages, allowing for a deeper understanding of competitors' content strategies. However, the platform has reduced the extent of this information in recent years, limiting the insights users can glean. Restoring more comprehensive top pages data would be a valuable addition to the platform.
• Data Accuracy: While Similarweb PRO generally provides accurate data, there have been instances where the reported numbers deviate from the actual figures, particularly for smaller or niche websites. Improving the platform's data accuracy, especially for less prominent sites, would enhance the overall reliability of the tool.

I use it every single day and its essential to succeeding in my role

Similarweb is a very easy to use tool and gives us data on the go. It takes only a few clicks to get the relevant data. However, I have deducted 2 points as it only allows us to add 5 websites at a time on the platform, and data availability is only for the last 37 months.

Support is just helpful and effective when you need them; we have only needed to contact them once about a misunderstanding while setting up our Market Analysis. Since we don't really contact them too often, it's hard to offer anything but a positive rating from the single positive experience we had with tech support.

This includes more data and makes backlink analysis easier because you don't have to build sheets and tables from scratch. While it doesn't directly compare (it uses some of these services) it is better suited for the custom analysis of data and that is a big help when you do a lot of data manipulation. It's easier and more streamlined than Knime, and Knime does not allow you to import directly from Moz or Majestic so a step is saved here. It can't do as much as Knime but most of the things you want to do it can do, and you can do them faster.

• It is hard to quantify this realistically but it does save time and that is big
• Importing data is a time suck, so the only real advantage here is the ability to do two or three imports instantly without downloading and visiting three sites, this could be expanded for even more ROI
• We haven't had any negative impacts as this is mainly a time saver
