Overall Satisfaction with Moz
SEOmoz (it's now just Moz) is mainly used by the SEO team to analyze and make decisions for technical improvements, content strategy, and link building. Mainly only the SEO department uses the product, but it's open to marketing and other areas to use. We communicate with other departments with the findings from using the tool. It addresses problems with our search indexing and ranking.
- The Open Site Explorer function of Moz works really well for analyzing competitor sites and finding opportunities for our own
- The Moz toolbar extension (for Chrome or Firefox) is also a really good way to gauge the quality and usefulness of sites and listings in the search results
- We like their community and Q&A support section for answering any advanced questions we might have
- Their Fresh Web Explorer has some uses for seeing new links, although it's not as robust as others
- The link index isn't as fast updating or as large as competitors Majestic SEO and Ahrefs
- The new Moz Analytics hasn't really lived up to the potential or hype generated before the launch
- The Chrome extension can be laggy and take a few refreshes to get the data for a website
- In general there is a lot of potential for better and speedier integration with all the data and acquired tools they have, but it doesn't feel too zippy or intuitive
- Positive: More research tools to improve employee efficiency
- Positive: Better competitive analysis with their research tools
- Positive: Better analysis of our own sites with their rank monitoring and page grading tools
