Likelihood to Recommend BuzzStream works for anyone that is working in the SEO field! It has literally saved me hours of time and is my go-to tool for all link building needs. The speed that I'm able to research a site, save the key information and launch a pre-crafted email is head spinning (In a good way)! This is one of the SEO tools that I can't live without--it makes link building and link tracking a whole lot easier. BuzzStream likely wouldn't be a good fit for anyone that isn't particularly working in the SEO field. I can't imagine this would replace a dedicated email tracking system or be used to send email drips.

For very well-developed teams, adopting a whole new platform like Traackr may not be best-suited for the entire team. Or at the very least, ensure that you are well-equipped to train and educate each and every team member of not only how to use Traackr but also on why Traackr is necessary for the holistic strategy.

Read full review Support Rating Support is one of the best aspects of BuzzStream. I know their support team is small and somehow they are able to get back to us right away in a super helpful, friendly fashion. I've had many questions - sometimes they release a new feature, sometimes a feature isn't working correctly and they are quick to answer but also help explain it in a way that makes sense.
Read full review Alternatives Considered BuzzStream stacks up quite well compared to its competitors. In particular,
Hootsuite and
HubSpot . BuzzStream has many of the same capabilities that its competitors do, at a fraction of the cost. We selected BuzzStream because it had a fairly flexible contract, and it was sufficient for our needs. It was a good intermediate-level tool.
