Overall Satisfaction with Talkwalker

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
  • 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.

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.
