Social Mention - Product for growth of business
Currently, my company is using Social Mention to analyze campaigns and their performance. Social Mention helps you to find the real-time count of your brand mentions and tags in social media like twitter, facebook and others. Since Facebook and Twitter have the largest number of users, these mediums are a great platform to run campaigns and promote your brand, but it is difficult to track the performance where Social Mention helps and analyze the future predict of the campaign performance.
- Keeps real time data tracking of campaign and brand performance
- Predict future performance
- One can analyse which campaigns and marketing to be done in future to increase sales.
- As it keeps real time data track, it also tracks old campaigns data searching keywords which is wrong and gives wrong analysis.
- Not reliable. But can use it for benefit of campaigns and analyse which campaigns to run.

Social Mention Review
- 1. Tracking of social media mentions, tags, campaigns on every social media platform which matters.
- 2. Search and analysis platforms which gives real-time data analytics of how much your campaigns, brands impacts and how much a word is used in posts all over social media.
- 3. Aggregates user-written content from across social media panel into a single platform of information.
- Assembles result in one platform from all over social media.
- Tracking of brands and campaigns impact over users. how much it is retweeted, liked and others. Difficult to scrape manually which social mentions solves very easily.
- Social Mention supports monitoring more than 50 media panels including Facebook, Twitter etc.
- Under the "Free" dashboard you are limited to only receiving weekly results.
- Can't negate those tags which contain my tags.
- Lots of tweets missing, no noise filtering. Sometimes we get very old contents which are not needed.
- Social Influence: Finds all the mentions on our brand throughout the internet
- Reduces Social Mistakes: Helps us find and respond to inquiries/comments about our brand - which can be difficult when there are multiple mentions.
- Scorecard: Helps keep score of the online passion for your brand.
- Filtering - better filtering of unrelated brand info. i.e. we are only interested in @accav items from the US - not from overseas

Great PR Tool
I used Social Mention to look up certain keywords in tweets. I wanted to see the content my client was being associated with and how many tweets I could find on a specific PR initiative. The sentiment tool helped me see how my client was perceived on social media.
- It grabs key words from tweets and lets you see the frequency of those tweets in real time.
- It's basic and easy to use. I mainly used it for Twitter; however, it helps with Facebook searches too. Finding Facebook content without Social Mention was harder because you cannot search directly on the Facebook platform; Social Mention grabs all the content into one place.
- The number of "unique authors" was especially helpful in providing me with more insight about my client in social media.
- I was never able to find where I could search only Twitter or only Facebook - that could be helpful.

Benefits of Social Monitoring Tools: Social Mention
I have taken the liberty of using Social Mention for researching sentiment about my brand and to see what consumers are saying. It is useful to see what buzz is being said about your brand, positive or negative. It is a great tool to feed various social networks all in one site. It is also useful to see what key terms are being said about your brand or product so that you can use those same keywords on your own site.
- Find sentiment of online buzz for your product/service/brand
- Monitor many different online websites that are talking about your brand all in one place
- Find keywords that are being used by consumers when they think of you
- Filters the firehose of social media data that inundates everyone worldwide daily.
- Allows topic-based email alerts (the best feature of all).
- Provides positive/negative sentiment and hashtags.
- It has problems sub-filtering keywords by sentiment or by source.
- It has no advanced features in the API addressing the problems with sub-filtering keywords by individual source (like "LA Times" or "Huffington Post").
- When I search, I will get results by default in multiple languages.
- It doesn't provide the power of Moreover for filtering content sources and outputting the results through API.

Social Mention Deserves a Small Mention
- Social Mention does a great job of in-depth searching the internet for mentions of your subject.
- Social Mention accurately records time of last mentions.
- The absence of Social Mention alerts is disappointing. It was a great function.
- Sometimes, Social Mention pulls up hits that are not particularly what I was searching for--even when using advanced search. It's hard to sift through all the hits.
