For a growing business like us it's social media appearance is very important. Further, we also got to have a watch out for our competitors. We need to save time from switching from windows to apps, mention is the solution to all these.

Pros

Mention is the best app when you are concerned about the social appearance of your business. You can get to see how often your brand is spoken of, and the relevant activities of your social media handle. It is very easy to use and affordable. You can also have a watch on your competitors through mention.

Cons

I cannot get any past information in mention. It took me a while to figure it out, you can see data only from when you signed up. There is no major drawback that concerns me.

This is an essential tool in any business of any size that has an online presence and wants to monitor their digital marketing. The best value is in its "early warning" application to lets you manage your online brand reputation.

Pros

I do not know what magic crawlers or algorithms they use. But it WORKS and it is accurate.
Note though that I can not rate their customer support as I have never needed to use it. Yes they are just that good.

Cons

The free version is limited, but still well worth it for a growing business.

Helpful Tool, Not As Easy As Other Options

Overall, Mention was a helpful tool to better understand how listening would work for us, however, it did not end up being the tool for us once we required additional mentions. If you are a smaller business with less mentions occurring online as you start out, I recommend using the free version of this tool to better understand how listening can work for you and if you like the tool, they have packages you can buy as your business grows.

Pros

Mention makes it easy to find out what people are saying about you. We tried the free version when researching possible listening tools and found it helpful. If you are a smaller business, this would be a great way to start the listening process without investing in expensive software or spending unnecessary time Googling and searching yourself. Regular reports also make it easy to stay up to date on your mentions without having to continually login and check manually.

Cons

We did quickly use up our available mentions and ended up going with a different software that, for us, was easier to use, cleaner looking and a better value (in part because we combined it with our analytics package).

Mention is a tool that I use every day - it's one of the first things that I open. It allows me to track any mention of my brand, so that I can respond accordingly and be aware of everything that's being said about my brand, good or bad. Each mention in the list is given a score as well as a flagging system to help me prioritise which ones require speedy attention. I get regular notifications when new mentions come in, so I never miss a thing!

The tool also allows me to mark any mentions that I want to mark as irrelevant or block completely, and the filter can be great when you want to focus on a single channel, such as Twitter.

Mention is great value for money, and while there are other tools out there that provide a similar service, I find Mention to be the best that I've tried!

Pros

Allows you see all mentions of your brand, or any other keywords or phrases that you want to track
Great value for money
Easy to filter mentions to focus on one channel at a time
Shows each mention as it appears on the referring page

Response from Mention

Thank you so much for the nice review. Really appreciate you sharing how easy you find to filter mentions and identify the ones that need immediate attention.
