Talkwalker Reviews

Marketing and communications teams across the globe use Talkwalker for a wide variety of use cases. These range from social media analytics, influencer marketing, web analytics, and most importantly for social media listening and competitor analysis. Talkwalker really helps to get real-time updates and alerts during crisis management and helps to keep the stakeholders informed and generate reports accordingly.

I currently use Talkwalker to monitor social media for mentions of me and my company. It helps me stay abreast of what's happening on different social media channels. Social listening is becoming increasingly important as we need to be aware of who is talking about us and what they are saying.

We use Talkwalker as a social listening and insight tool. It helps us monitor what is being said about our company and what type of sentiment is being discussed in terms of our work. We find it very helpful when developing content and when we need to know and learn more about the market we are in.

Talkwalker is currently being used by our Creative and Marketing teams. More specifically, our company uses Talkwalker for monitoring brand mentions and backlinks coming in from all across the internet. It addresses the main brand monitoring problem that our company has: it's difficult to know what other influencers and websites are saying about your brand without effective listening software.

I use Talkwalker in combination with Google Alerts to track mentions, news, competitors' news and updates, backlinks, and potential backlinks. It's an extremely useful tool for every digital marketer out there especially if you have a zero budget.

Talkwalker is primarily used in Ebiquity's Communications Insight team, supporting client briefs from a range of verticals. The tool is also used to support and measure the success our own in-house marketing effort as well as supplement work conducted by other teams in the company. The Communications Insight team helps brands make sense of the world around them in all media: how they are they portraying themselves in paid media, how do they used owned media assets to support this portrayal and how do we as consumers respond to this image and our interaction with the brand. Talkwalker helps us effectively evaluate the owned and earned media spaces, at a global scale, so we can give clients a complete overview of their - and their competitors' - media activities in a holistic way.

Before reviewing Talkwalker, let me describe my activity. I am the founder of suntriangle insights, a consultancy that helps PR agencies and companies implement and optimize their media measurement systems. In that capacity, I have tested innumerable traditional and social media monitoring and analysis platforms, including all of Talkwalker's major competitors.

We use it across many functions, including social, PR, BI, and SMT. These functions have various KPIs and use cases, but the most common ones are brand safety, content optimization, and brand tracking.

We are reseller of the product on the Italian market.

We use Talkwalker in a few different ways: as a supplement or replacement to traditional desk research, monitoring crises situations, and keeping an eye on general brand reputation issues. We have been experimenting with a variety of uses and trying to find new and interesting ways to leverage the big data searches that are available through Talkwalker. We've been using it as a sort of canary in the coal mine to be alerted to increased engagement with negative reputation mentions, identifying influencers, and comparing past and present events on volume and sentiment.
