Overall Satisfaction with Semrush

I use Semrush as a college student to practice discovering marketing insights and running SEO campaigns. I have never had an inside view of the software that helps companies run digital marketing strategies before, so having this opportunity with Semrush was amazing. One business problem that Semrush addresses is that many of the great features that they offer are only available through their Trends Subscription plan. I did find that this prevented me from exploring many of the tools and features that they have but at the same time I understand why I didn't have access to them because I did not pay any money for the subscription I currently have which is Pro.

Though Google Analytics and Semrush are similar products, when comparing them, the question is not whether you should use one or the other. Rather, understanding what each tool does. Semrush is best for keyword research for content marketing and paid search campaigns, doing competitor analysis and running website SEO audits. While Google Analytics is good for tracking users own websites performance, understanding their own website visitor behavior and measuring the ROI of their marketing campaigns.
