Good tool for 99% of competitor analysis tasks.
In my company, iSpionage is used primarily by our SEO specialists, who optimize the company's website, and SEM managers who run search engine ads. I personally use alerts and competitor analysis options. This additional feature notifies me when someone posted a resume with the keywords I need, so I am one of the first to contact that candidate.
- Keyword alerts notifications.
- Competitors analysis.
- Website monitoring.
- limited list of countries.
- Competitors analysis.
- Keyword analysis.
- Alerts
- Optimized budgeting for promotion.
- Quicket results in SEO.
Like any service, iSpionage has some advantages, like more accurate data for those markets it is focused on. Also, iSpionage is easier to use for non-professionals. Also, iSpionage has a better focus on ads your competitors run. Thus the tool is one of those an online marketer should use in its arsenal. Also, I Like the design of the dashboard and graphs.
Our goal with iSpionage is to try to get insights into our competitors' SEO success, looking for edges and angles that can give our clients the kinds of sustainable, long-term organic success that they can be proud of. This is one tool in our arsenal, but one that we've turned to more than once to give us a different view of the bigger picture.
- Identifying competitor keywords
- Identifying additional online competitors that may be in parallel industries
- Seeking additional keywords that we can increase rankings for
- Keyword database is limited compared to other tools
- Limited (though streamlined) feature set
- Less agency-friendly than other tools.
- Keyword/Competitor Insights
- Basic Alerts on Breaking Insights
- iSpionage has yielded some actionable intel for our organic strategy
It's a good option to mix into your insights strategy. It's not as comprehensive as other tools we've used, but it can occasionally find angles that may be overlooked by other systems and platforms.

See competitor's ads without Googling tons of times in incognito!
We use iSpionage typically for Paid Search—primarily for pitch decks, to get a sense of the space. It's good for getting the lay of the land in terms of competitor spend, which is useful if you walk into a pitch. Clients like to get the idea that you know their business pretty well, and understand the space.
- Quick view PPC budget—even in a couple seconds you can see about how much competitors are spending
- Snapshots of specific ads—amazing for comparisons and even ideas to vulture for your own ads
- The Landing Pages tab is a good place to see which specific pages competitors are driving to
- The Compare Competitor button sounds pretty sweet, but I've never been able to get it to work—it just says it's temporarily unavailable (I've tried it like 30 times over months). Maybe just a browser bug? Dunno
- I wish there were more exportable data —the overall little chart would be nice, but I guess screenshotting works okay—more chart types would be nice too, or a filter option of data points to throw into that chart.
- I wish I could export the "Top Ads" widget—you have to just copy paste it I guess...seems like a missed opportunity for quick use
- It's hard to quantify, but I believe I've saved quite a bit of time and energy in competitor research due to iSpionage
- iSpionage has helped me get more knowledgeable, quicker, to gain trust with potential clients—again, not really measurable
- I've surely maximized my clients' advantage by recommending proper competitive spend based on what I'm seeing in iSpionage
SEMRush rules for quick organic insights, but its paid search insights aren't very substantial, it seems to me. iSpionage is the only tool I've seen or heard of that actually pulls in competitor ads and gives an estimated spend. That's pretty amazing—and clients will never stop asking about what kinds of ads and how much competitors are spending.
