A great listening tool
What do you like best about the product?
Of course, the main challenge of this kind of tool is the coverage and I'm impressed by the quality and the efficiency of their listening.
Moreover, their analytics tools are well-though: it's easy to explore the data to find trends and important messages.
Finally, export tools (to pdf and/or ppt) are helpful to create dashboards and media reviews.

What do you dislike about the product?
Query creation can quickly become complicated, but Linkfluence's teams are there to help.
The interface could be refreshed, and it is not possible to analyze a set of hand selected messages.

Helpful but TERRIBLE customer service
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can have the program monitor for specific topics and it will alert you when new ones come up that may be of interest to you. It definitely helps you find points of conversation that you wouldn't otherwise be able to find through a traditional media search. I do believe it has some of the best technology for media monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
HORRIBLE customer service. Before I purchased Meltwater, I was receiving multiple calls PER DAY to buy their product. It almost made me not want to purchase the software, but I'd heard from other business professionals that it was worth the money and that they too had experienced multiple calls and bad customer service until they bought in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to solve the issue of knowing what types of coverage our organization was receiving.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take your time and use the demos they provide to you. If you really want to see how this product is going to help your organization, you can also ask them to do a live demo with you and to show you search terms you are interested in. Meltwater's customer service is severely lacking, but the product works well.
Fantastic tool for PR professionals
What do you like best about the product?
The tools available with Meltwater are definitely powerful. We primarily use it for media tracking and social media tracking. But their customer service is amazing! I've never had an issue with reaching out to them for small things.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are so many extra - and very intriguing - features that are a little out of budget for the startup I work for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Meltwater helps us keep track of our media it allows me to organize my work to create a better experience for my clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would say that I highly recommend Meltwater to companies with lots of different projects going on at the same time.
Review of Meltwater for Media Monitoring and PR Analytics
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Meltwater helps our team track press hits for our clients in one place. The daily emails were extremely helpful, as I got a snapshot of the clips that posted the previous day without having to log into the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Meltwater a lot of the times mess press clips, so we have to do supplemental tracking to create a comprehensive report for our clients.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem it solves is tracking press clips for our clients. We used to use Google to search for press clips which can be time-consuming.

Essentially Google Alerts on Steriods
What do you like best about the product?
I love the robustness of the Meltwater platform. I can create all different types of queries to track different types of media mentions.
I also love that it sends me daily emails with a list of all our media mentions that I can customize myself.

What do you dislike about the product?
Due to the robustness of the platform, there’s a slight learning curve for employees who have to learn how to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Meltwater is helping us organize and track all of our media mentions. Before we would rely on Google to track everything, and there were definitely pieces that slipped through the cracks. A benefit of Meltwater is that it’s helped us build partnerships with other businesses by seeing who is talking about our company already.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We’ve been happy with it since using it for 2 years. We have a great account manager who is very attentive to our needs and keeps us up to date with all the newest updates with Meltwater.
Meltwater review- coordinator perspective
What do you like best about the product?
The dashboard and monitoring is great and saves me tons of time in the morning. It picks up a lot of the stories we need to cover.
What do you dislike about the product?
The influencer database could use some updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving our media relations efforts
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask them to come in, they are great at helping you with understanding the software
A useful starting point, but important to understand the tool's limitations.
What do you like best about the product?
Meltwater's media monitoring function allows to you to easily create and save boolean searches for a large number of clients/campaigns. By playing with keywords, you are able to filter out a lot of irrelevant content. But the tool does sometimes miss coverage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The influencer data base is a good starting point for identifying target journalists and building a media list. But the tool is often out of date or has general outlet email addresses for specific contacts. Oftentimes, extra internet sleuthing is required to have an accurate, up to date list.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Meltwater primarily for media monitoring and building media lists for MR campaigns. It cuts down on monitoring time and gives a starting point for building media lists.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Understand the benefit it can provide, but also be aware of its limitations. Play with keywords for media monitoring, this is easy to do and will help make your media monitoring fast and easy. Don't rely too heavily on the media database for accuracy, always double check media lists.
