Customers appreciate how Social Mention serves as a central hub for all their social media monitoring needs.

Having all this data readily available in one platform eliminates the need to navigate through different channels, saving time and effort.
In summary, Social Mention is a powerful tool that enables users to track social media mentions, analyze campaign performance, and gain valuable insights into their brand reputation. Its ability to aggregate user-written content from multiple platforms provides a comprehensive source of information, making it an essential tool for businesses looking to monitor their online presence effectively.
Easy to use: Reviewers have found the tool to be basic and easy to navigate, making it accessible for all users. Some users appreciated its simplicity in gathering social media data without any complications or steep learning curves.
Consolidates information: Users praised the tool's ability to gather all Facebook content into one place, as searching directly on the Facebook platform was more difficult. This feature was particularly helpful for tracking their client's presence and engagement on social media, providing valuable insights about their brand.
Comprehensive monitoring capabilities: Social Mention received positive feedback for its ability to monitor various online websites that mentioned a user's brand, consolidating all the information in one platform. This allowed users to efficiently find and respond to inquiries/comments about their brand, even when there were multiple mentions scattered across different platforms.
Difficulty in Searching for Specific Information: Some users have found it challenging to search for specific information on Twitter or Facebook separately, leading to frustration and inefficiency in finding the desired content.
Limited Filtering Options: Several reviewers have expressed a desire for better filtering options to exclude unrelated brand information and focus on specific items from a certain location. The lack of comprehensive filtering capabilities has made it difficult for users to narrow down their search results effectively.
Inaccurate Data Tracking: A common complaint among users is that the real-time data tracking feature also tracks old campaign data, resulting in incorrect analysis and unreliable results. This issue undermines the trustworthiness of the software's data tracking functionality and hampers its usefulness for accurate performance evaluation.

Reviews
(1-5 of 5)- 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
- Today - it helped me find a lead and respond - 2 days late but hopefully not a missed opportunity. Had responded on Twitter but they needed more followup.
- Better customer service online - knowing that there really is monitoring.
Great PR Tool
- 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.
- Overally, it had a positive impact when we needed to get numbers and monitoring context on social media in real time. It gives a great overview while doing a deep dive into more intricate areas of social content.

- 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.
- The paid-version actually had a negative ROI for us as it would sometimes feed us topically inappropriate articles and didn't allow us to filter by source so as to eliminate inappropriate blogs and inappropriate news sources (like highly politically partisan ones).
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.
