We use Talkwalker to perform social listening analytics across a roster of our clients to monitor brand health, measure sentiment, identify potential crises, and reveal themes in audience conversation. Many of our scopes require regular social media monitoring to measure the impact of social efforts, campaigns, influencer partnerships, etc. Especially in the past year, our use of Talkwalker quick search has been instrumental in helping us keep our finger on the pulse of critical conversations that aren't specifically tied to one of our clients but can help our clients understand cultural/social/political moments.
  • Sentiment Analysis.
  • Visualizations.
  • Dashboard Creation and Sharing.
  • A recent update has made adding filters to the dashboard far more convoluted than necessary.
  • Many metrics are displayed as "3.4M", it would be great if you could hover over that number to see the full "3,371,000".
  • The tagging feature is buggy and often needs to be done twice to tag the mentions applied in the rule.
I would more likely recommend Talkwalker for someone who is monitoring many topics across one brand, as opposed to monitoring many brands and topics together. Talkwalker's strengths lie in comparing topics against each other. Talkwalker is also great when a client prefers to see a dashboard that is constantly reloading with new data but it can be harder to use in the topic analysis when comparing across several topics.
  • Topic Analysis.
  • Dashboard Creation.
  • Quick Search.
  • Quick search allows immediate response to clients in need of crisis monitoring which has given opportunities for new scopes.
  • Metrics have supported owned campaign performance, to prove our strategy worked.
  • Identify potential influencers.
I strongly believe that a social intelligence team needs a variety of social listening tools to make for effective monitoring and reporting. Talkwalker is a good complement to other social intelligence tools, especially because of some of its unique capabilities such as its aesthetically pleasing visualizations, unique visual insights, and dashboard customizations.

We use talkwalker internally to manage and monitor brand conversations and mentions for our clients at scale - we're able to quickly identify issues or problems that need to be addressed by our clients and track how brand perception changes over time. We also use talkwalker for their mentions feature which can track mentions of product, brand, employees, etc based on the custom filters setup.
  • Brand Management
  • Trend Analysis
  • Market Research
  • Improvements to Free Tools to supplement paid subscriptions
  • Talkwalker Alerts
We've seen great success setting up custom alerts for all of our clients to track brand mentions and monitor brand sentiment over time. We can also use their market research & trend assessments to improve targeting capabilities and ensure we're focused on priority topics online. It's helped us to get in front of the right customers more often.
  • Brand Monitoring
  • We've built trust with our clients with Talkwalker
  • Talkwalker has found brand mentions Google didn't

We use Talkwalker across the organization as part of our Tool Stack: Monitoring - track relevant reputational topics that have an impact on our clients, both positive and negative drivers. The alerts features allow us to receive an email with the topics growing in terms of results, although we keep active monitoring daily. Influencer Identification - by tracking the industry and category of interest we are able to identify the key opinion leaders not only by the volume of followers. We can combine multiple metrics available in the platform, such as the number of posts done within the topic, engagement, and reach, to select the most suitable influencers to meet our clients' needs. Customer Insights - understand key moments of consumption and unmet needs by listening to what people are sharing on social media platforms about a theme/brand/product/service. Understanding not only what they are saying, but also who is behind the conversations, thanks to anonymized customer information the tool provides. We are also able to answer less common business questions from our clients as the tool is quite flexible in terms of boolean searches. We are able to listen to what people are saying no matter if it is a very niche topic or a broader one. We are able to collect the relevant results and forensically analyze the drivers of the conversation.
  • Boolean searches are flexible, including a lot of advanced boolean terms
  • Multiple types of data visualization, both during topic analysis and also in dashboards
  • Filter options, especially the Custom Filters and Custom Tags
  • AI feature allows us to save time cleaning data or manually tagging specific themes
  • Tracking some social platforms, such as LinkedIn
  • Improving forum coverage in non-English markets
  • I'd like to be able to nest the "NEAR/x" operator two times in a query when defining some setups
Talkwalker is well suited for big companies and agencies that are looking for a long-term solution to keep track of the industry and/or their brands and key competitors. While setup requires a bit of dedication (especially in terms of custom filters and tags), once it's done, the tool will give the user a lot of flexibility to analyze the conversations and find the relevant results that answer the business questions. Companies just looking for a tool to track a short time period, or simple things like Twitter hashtags, won't take advantage of the full capabilities of this tool. Therefore, they could feel frustrated when comparing the outcomes/usage versus the costs.
  • Boolean advanced searches and custom filters/tags
  • Quick Search
  • AI module where you can train your own AI model
  • Conversation Clusters
  • Positive: We have been able to focus on what is important, the analysis, reducing the time spent in data cleaning and classification. This has allowed us to provide better insights to our clients.
  • Negative: Most of the time when they have a new feature it is an extra cost.
