Reviews
(1-25 of 33)- Keyword research (includes related terms, types of terms, high ranking pages, search volume, and more)
- Content guidance and briefs (you can use built in tools to get specific optimization steps and create content briefs within the tool)
- Competitor research (compare how competition is ranking and track organic market share)
- Support (dedicated team support, regular check-ins, built-in requests for deliverables/support items, options for requesting work with partner organizations, excellent training materials, and live chat within the platform)
- Backlink tracking/reporting (would like to see backlinks more easily and maybe backlink opportunities if possible)
- Custom content briefs (right now I move the brief from the platform version into our own in-house Word doc template because it is more detailed. Would love to be able to customize the brief that is set up within Conductor so that we can do it all in one place.)
Good experience so far, looking forward to further working with Conductor on our SEO objectives!
- Account management - service has been great so far/ team is good to work with.
- Teaching on how to navigate the new tool/new features.
- Platform is easy to navigate
- Maybe add an addition of resource page, where people could go to refresh their knowledge of how to use the tool/ general SEO best practices/learning documents.
Amazing SEO workflow
- Relative data.
- Amazing dashboard.
- Keyword research.
- Should have backlink information.
- More automation is needed.
The best SEO decision we have made so far
- The Keyword Research Explorer tool in Conductor is excellent. It fits the needs of our content team directly. As they write content they can add that topic into Conductor and see the results of keywords they can use, or quick answer rich results gives them the edge to create strong SEO content on their own without using multiple teams.
- The batch edit of keywords is also a great and easy feature of Conductor. We have hundreds of keywords we monitor and being able to quickly batch update these keywords and add categories to them, give us an edge in reporting on keywords as well as making decisions based on these categories.
- Deep Crawl Site analysis through Conductor is a powerful scan tool. We have multiple SEO scanning tools, but Deep Crawl finds things that other tools in the industry have failed to find. We have been able to improve the performance of the site based on this tool.
- I would like to see a feature to manage the backlink disavow list through search console. If Conductor is able to add this, we may be able to drop one of our other tools and save some money in that area.
- Conductor has a lot of features and can be a bit overwhelming. It is a strength and a weakness, as it takes time to learn all that is available.
- Another feature I would like to see is more integration with GA, we leverage creating annotations in GA and it would be great to have those pulled into the Conductor dashboard automatically.
An overall great tool that is only improving.
- Great dashboard tools.
- Reliable data.
- Constant updates.
- Steep learning curve.
- Cost is higher compared to competitors.
- Lack of backlink data.
Conductor has been a key to improving our SEO traffic!
- Keyword Analysis helps me plan for articles I am writing, and assists me in putting briefs together if someone else is writing the content.
- Content Performance helps me track how the content is ranking, and if editorial changes we make are helping or hurting.
- You must have fairly significant SEO knowledge to use many of Conductor's tools.
Conductor Review
- Organizes all things search into one tool
- Provides solid answers to stakeholder questions quickly
- Offers a robust platform that can be heavily customized to provide the information necessary to address nearly all views of search data (and a few outside of search).
- It took us a while to make the platform fit our needs. There was a lot of work involved in customizing reports, segments, making sure Conductor was accurately seeing the website the way we designed (content mapping, segmentation, etc.). The tools are all there, but some assembly required.
- API costs extra
- There are direct integrations for platforms like Domo. I haven't seen one for Tableau. There might be one, but I haven't found it.
- Professional services teams that are on top of their tech skills and can apply that to help us problem solve technical and strategic problems. For example, URL inventories and SEO evaluations per page for large and cumbersome websites.
- Conductor lets me understand how my products and services compare to competitors (some I know and some that aren't even on my radar) so I can make decisions about to make sure my content shows up where I think it should.
- Conversely, it also shows me where my content shows up that I didn't expect or plan for. Sometimes this a great learning for business users that drives new content or concepts to build on success.
- While monitoring the health of my website is not a key function of the platform, it does give me just enough clues (like broken links or poor page performance) to ask questions about development etc.
- Conductor has been excellent partners in training a wide range of business users and providing proof of strategic value of the platform's performance and impact.
- I need backlinks. Please consider integrating an industry leading tool like Majestic directly into your platform.
- I love the newsletters we used to get...I don't know what happened to those, but please bring them back or something else that includes that content in an easy to consume format with the same fun flair.
Demystifying SEO!
- Insights Stream provides clear, actionable information.
- Workspaces give you what you need, when you need it. Save your reports!
- Check in on the competition and compare your performance.
- We had some account team changes in our first year, but they communicated clearly throughout each change and we've ultimately landed with an account manager that we LOVE!
- If you don't come from an SEO background, it's easy to get lost in the beginning. Don't be afraid to lean on Conductor to get you back on track. They're always willing to help!
Excellent SEO and Content Tool
- Keyword research - trended search volume, journey stage, competition, related phrases and questions
- Support team - customized reports each month from their support team based on your requests looking at technical, keyword research, competitive insights, recommendations, etc.
- Reporting - Robust reporting features
- Content integration - More holistic picture of how content and SEO work together
- There's a learning curve to the system so takes a little bit to get proficient in using it
Conductor Truly Sheds Light on SEO!
We also had a need to identify gaps and holes in our online content strategy. Conductor not only shows us what our competitors are doing to win at SEO, but it also gives recommendations on how to take action on the opportunities that are within striking distance. We did not have the budget to hire a team of people to do what Conductor can do for a fraction of the cost.
- Recommendations, in my opinion, are the best thing about Conductor. The recommendations dashboard gives my team ideas for quick wins with SEO, which saves me time from having to manually mine data to determine in on my own.
- Competitor analysis is essential to how we use Conductor. Being able to identify what our competitors are ranking for specific search terms in specific regions is crucial to making good SEO decisions.
- The explorer tool is great for planning new content ideas. The data that it provides saves so much time when determining what keywords to target for new content.
- Set up time is a bit long, but the great thing is you know that the Conductor team is working hard to get it set up right the first time around. Measure twice, cut once.
- The platform is very robust and can be overwhelming for non-tech savvy people. Although the platform is user-friendly and designed well, the learning curve is quite steep.
- Training was quick and to the point. I wish it has been a little longer and more in-depth.
Conductor is more of a partnership than a tool.
- Customer Service. By far what they offer is the best. I have access to a team and their calendars. So when I need to set up a meeting I know when they are available. They are easy to talk to and help me work through any problem I might be having.
- Reports. I've seen reports by some of their competitors and quite honestly wasn't sure what I was looking at. But Conductors reports can be streamlined to fit several different audiences and I can email them out (automatically) whenever I want to whomever I want, whether they are a Conductor user or not.
- Competitive Analysis. I've not done a lot of comparison with other vendors, but I like the convenient, straightforward way Conductor shows your competitors and how they are ranking in comparison to you. You have control over your competitors and can change them when needed.
- Site Analysis. Conductor uses DeepCrawl for its site analysis. While this is a powerful tool that helps me know everything wrong with my website like - no titles, short descriptions, no Alt tags, etc - the amount of information can be overwhelming. Initially, I had thousands of errors I was trying to fix using DeepCrawl - it was difficult to know what I had corrected and what still needed to be corrected without doing another crawl. It would be helpful if there was a way to check off things that had been fixed as I was working through the list.
- Conductor does a great job training. First, they introduced me to Conductor and walked me through everything, and helped me create workspaces and set up reports. Then we moved on to the site analysis with DeepCrawl. Because I had so much work to do from the site analysis it was a while before I got back into Conductor. I had forgotten much of the training by that point. But the team is helping me get back into the flow of things again. They are great like that!
Great Platform
- Great Recommendations.
- Useful graphs to show how the website has changed.
- Generates useful reports for managers.
- Learning Curve.
- Can be intimidating if you know nothing about SEO.
Helps us make strategic decisions while making my job easier!
- My favorite part of Conductor is the reporting features. I can't speak highly enough of the reporting. Before Conductor, we didn't have much visibility into how our efforts were affecting our site traffic and rankings, but now, showing the leadership team that the marketing team is doing a good job is easy! I just forward our executive team the weekly reports and they seem to love it too!
- The account management team has been beyond helpful throughout the entire engagement. They have been responsive to all of our needs and questions even after our account was set up. Their expertise is beyond valuable and they help us think creatively on ways to use the platform we aren't currently using.
- One of the best parts of Conductor is the ease of use for users of all experience levels. We have beginners and experts using the platform alike and it seems to be a great fit for everyone.
- Conductor's Explorer feature makes it easy for us to develop new content. Before we were manually searching for topics to write about, now it's easier than ever.
- We track backlinks every week for our executive team, Conductor doesn't have an easy way right now to find this information. However, our account management team has been fantastic and has been providing this information for us every week.
- Getting set up in Conductor is time consuming and takes some effort internally, but is primarily done by the Conductor team. It may be worth having longer strategy sessions with the teams for a shorter implementation time.
- Market Share only shows your market share within your tracked keywords. I think it would be beneficial to see how we rank against our competitors on keywords we're not tracking. This may expose some keywords we're not tracking that we should be tracking.
No Other tool Like Conductor on the Market
Conductor is our most vital tool for our company’s SEO efforts. Our team uses and implements finds from Conductor heavily. It has been useful with streamlining our SEO initiates and helping with our content marketing strategy.
Overall, Conductor has allowed our company to gain significant market share over our competitors.
- User-friendly UI and powerful tool that has streamlined our SEO efforts
- Great reporting tool
- Helps us understand our market share on the SERPs
- Learning curve when first starting out using the platform
- Can't dig deep into backlink building
Conductor Drives The Train of Success!
It solves several of our business problems. However, it is primarily used to help optimize our 2,100 product catalog with new keywords to aid our organic search results.
- Customer Success - Every single interaction we have had with the customer success management team has felt seamless and productive.
- Product Features - There are almost too many to feature. Whatever your strategy and set of objectives may be. There bound to be something in Conductor to help you meet your end goals.
- Ease of Use - The Conductor interface is incredibly easy to pick up and use right away. The learning curve is not very steep and it caters to all SEO familiarity levels.
- Frankly, the only thing I can think of us is that our team is too small to take advantage of all the features within Conductor.
My Conductor Experience
- They have amazing service. I could not ask more from our account reps.
- I love how they've paired the platform with an agency. They've really taught us how to utilize the platform in order to make better informed decisions.
- Overall, the platform is a little pricey. But, if you have the room in your budget it's well worth it.
- There is definitely a learning curve with Conductor. You have to be invested in taking the time to learn how to use it.
Conductor strikes the perfect balance between tool and partner
Overall, this allows our organization to streamline our optimization efforts within one unified platform, which cuts down on inconsistencies, simplifies execution and reduces reliance on multiple technologies.
- The Explorer tool integrates with multiple keyword databases, so the results are more comprehensive and representative of the true search landscape. It also provides important insight into the environment that surrounds the keywords or topics you search for, such as the stage in the customer journey that keyword best fits or the level of competition within the SERP that you can expect to go against. These are valuable features when determining which keywords to optimize your content for.
- Knowing where you stand in relation to your competitors is important for understanding your path for growth, and the Market Share and Rank Comparison features within Conductor allow you to determine the areas you dominate and areas of potential opportunity at a granular level.
- The reporting feature allows you to quickly and easily compile notable performance shifts and disseminate these shifts to your team, along with analysis and relevant context. Keeping the larger organization abreast of your efforts allows everyone to benefit from the optimizations you make, and Conductor makes this process easy.
- I truly enjoy this platform. There was a learning curve when I first began using Conductor, but the excellent and well-organized training sessions that Conductor provides alleviated the stress of mastering the technology.
- Conductor has a massive suite of features, and depending on the needs of your business, you may or may not need all of these features. Identify the key areas of support that you are looking for, and work with the sales team to customize a solution that works best for you.
Conductor is a game changer
- Competitive tracking
- Content optimization
- Opportunities / risk alerts
- Difficult for our scrappy team to keep pace with the speed and quantity of their recommendations
- Sometimes the dashboards are easy to get lost within, especially for SEO newbies
Updated Review - Conductor has been a valuable tool!
- The support team is the best. They are truly looking after their customers.
- Fairly easy-to-use platform once you are trained and familiar with features.
- Continuously improving the product and integrations/partnerships.
- Easier updates to individual keywords.
Few Hiccups, but Best SEO Platform Out There Still
- The audience intent explorer is an invaluable tool for finding related topics and other content ideas.
- The prebuilt reports and goals in the platform are spectacular for providing holistic view of the aggregate ratings of clients' keyword profile.
- Workspaces allow for an easy way to build dashboards to easily get insights from the data allowed through the platform.
- Customer support is absolutely incredible and helps within seconds of reaching out.
- The way to perform bulk updates is a bit clunky by having to download the entire set and make manual changes in Excel.
- Not enough functionality having to do with backlinks and unlinked mentions for brands.
- Features like daily rankings tracking and Deepcrawl are an additional cost rather than being part of the platform.
Robust features & excellent support
- Page segmentation features
- Keyword monitoring
- Dashboard with key insights
- Competitor monitoring
- Manual keyword upload process
- Persona tracking
- Marketshare analysis
Great Product, Great Service, Great Learning Experience
- Measure Visibility
- Site Audits
- Competitive Analysis
- The interface is a little clunky
Great Value and Wonderful Team - You Won't be Disappointed.
- Any person that works in SEO should know three things: where you're winning, where you have opportunities to rank better, and how your competitors rank. Conductor rolls up all of those aspects in a friendly user experience. It's especially helpful if you're in a time crunch and people want to know information quickly. Conductor knows these are things you need.
- Implementation of the Search Console has been beneficial. This helps us to see how our rankings, versus our page consoles, work together. This is one of the reasons why Conductor sets itself apart. It does help us to see the information in a pared down manner in order to help us see our opportunities.
- The diversification of Workspaces allows anyone to custom use the tool. Every business has a different goal and being able to identify the needs based on that goal helps you decide where you can find the opportunities to help you win. It only takes a few seconds to set one in.
- I would like to see more in the area of backlinks and find out where the backlinks are coming from. This helps us to be able to disavow if we need to and identify the bad "endorsements".
Your Organic Search is Over
- Conductor makes it easy to monitor your organic search traffic.
- Being able to see monthly search volume by keyword allows for focus on data driven - important keywords, rather than what's thought to be important.
- Having insights into how you compare against your competitors or even channel partners is helpful.
- If you're not in it everyday, navigation can be a bit tricky.
- It took 3 weeks to get a data connection issue resolved, which had caused us to temporarily lose insights during that period.
- There's a decent learning curve on the platform.
