Absolutely, we recommend Matrix to every business to business partner or client we have. It has helped us crawl out of the dark ages and interface with a completely new audience of customers. We appreciate that they are always innovating so we get the best of the future pulled into the present.

• Advanced Web Ranking is a low-cost solution for SEO reporting, suitable for medium-sized businesses that can't afford more expensive solutions of this type.
• It's also very scalable in some respects, particularly the availability of unlimited keyword tracking, which is preferable to certain solutions that charge by the keyword.
• There are also a number of other features in the product not directly related to the reporting of performance which some users will find useful.

Incentivized

• Site that is mobile friendly
• Website integrated into Google platform for ads.
• SEO dashboard is easy to use.

• Updating reports when adding new keywords can be slow, taking a day or so to update.
• Large keyword projects can be slow to update.
• If you have a large number of keywords to track, the costs escalate quickly.

• I do think that completeness in which it integrates data from our traffic and order entry system could improve some. We have found instances where data isn't cleanly input and requires some manual clean up on the backside.
• While the system itself is pretty user-friendly, sometimes the system itself seems a bit slow. For AE's whose time is rather valuable, this I know they find annoying at times.
• Since I have the ability to see everyone's data and not just one AE's, I would like the managerial functionality a bit more comprehensive. Some of the reports are a bit cumbersome.

We switched our rank tracking software from Raven Tools when they dropped rank tracking several years ago. We moved to AWR and realized how inaccurate Raven Tools was when it came to keyword rank tracking. Even when raven Tools added rank tracking back, we never switched back, AWR is more accurate and reliable as a keyword rank tracking tool.

I do know that WideOrbit Meida Sales has a CRM tool as well and I do think what Matrix offers is better. As far as data integration, WideOrbit might be better, but as a stand alone product I think Matrix is a better tool. The reporting piece is certainly better, and the ease of use for the AE's is certainly simpler.

• It stayed within our client's allotted budget (which drives more business our way down the road!)
• Updated information in real-time assures our clients that they get the most accurate information possible, as quickly as possible.
• It's been only slightly detrimental to my workflow (which is one little drawback of the program) sometimes I have to enlist the help of a keyword generator (because i find the one with the program a bit lacking)

• I do think that Matrix has had a positive impact of requiring AE's to better manage their own business.
• Since I don't directly deal with the contractual piece of Matrix, as far as what the actual ROI is, I can't speak to that. But I can say this, our organization has used this for at least the 6 years I've been there. It is used on a national level, so I do believe that it's roll up features are ones that can be utilized through the organization.
• As far as our overall business objectives in the sales department, it certainly meets the needs of both the management team as well as the sales team to managing clients and annual budgets.
