  • Radian6 has definitely helped us layout the future social goals. This, in turn, helped in growing the brand value.
  • On a long-term comparison of "where we were" and "where we are now" on the social presence, Radian6 has surely helped to build the road with its social monitoring capabilities.

Jack of all trades, master of none

  • The one-stop-shop aspect enables us to combine multiple tool functionality into one subscription
  • Integration with Salesforce is a key selling point meaning we can coordinate all activity with a constant reference to CRM data
  • It is a little light on functionality in some areas (analyse as the prime example) so you may find you'll need to spend on an alternative / supplementary platform to fulfil the use-case requirements here
