What is TrackMaven?

According to the vendor, marketers report on their results for two reasons: to prove their value, and to improve their results. Additionally, the vendor says TrackMaven is the only marketing analytics platform that gives marketers the ability to do both across all of their digital channels.

TrackMaven’s marketing analytics platform integrates with all the tools marketers are already using to measure their performance — including social networks, web analytics providers, and all major advertising, marketing automation, and CRM platforms — so it’s clear to see what works and what doesn’t in one centralized view.

TrackMaven can also show where its customers are winning and losing in their industry by tracking their results against competitors, peers, and influencers. Marketing leaders from hundreds of the world’s best brands use TrackMaven to understand the full impact of their marketing on over 20 digital channels.


Media

With unified reporting across your social media, blog, email, ads, website analytics, automation, CRM, and more, TrackMaven makes it easy to prove the impact of your marketing activities. Understand how all of your top-of-funnel efforts contribute to bottom-of-funnel results such as website traffic, conversions, and sales.

Competitive Intelligence at the Granular Level

Pros

  • Competitive Intelligence - see precisely what your competitors are posting and sort by time and/or impact
  • Funnel Analysis (Beta as of April 2017) - track your organic and paid social efforts to see which content creates leads
  • Comprehensive Overview of Social Channels - track growth and engagement of all social channels in one screenshot, and in comparison to your closest competitors
  • Personalized Analytics - each user can set up their own reports and dashboards and/or they can be shared across the organization, chart your own KPIs with a click of a button
  • Top Notch UX & Support - drag and drop features for report building and dashboard creation, responsive support team

Cons

  • Content Feed - functionality rests with third party integration, would like to see this data updated more often
  • ROI Calculations - would love to be able to input metrics for ROI and see it calculated across KPI charts and Funnel Analysis
  • Software Integrations - would love to see a TrackMaven app integration with Hootsuite, our SMMS system, in order to create truly comprehensive and granular analytical reports on social media efforts across all verticals

Return on Investment

  • Paid Search & Social - TrackMaven has given us the ability to develop smarter social advertising and reach our audience with the right messages
  • Account Analytics - the account overview we receive in TrackMaven of our own social media accounts is duplicative of what we already get through other software
  • Funnel Analysis - If we can better see which efforts are paying off with leads, at a granular level, we can use our social spend budget more wisely
