User Testimonials
	Authoritas	Semrush
Likelihood to Recommend	Great for agencies with big data Incentivized CC Craig Connelly Director Read full review	This is suited to plan for keywords in a single market, but it struggles when you need to consolidate several markets. It is well-suited to discover new keywords directly related to the ones being used currently to expand the content the company is creating to get better results. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Web stats. SEO stats. Technical SEO. On page SEO. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Great visuals for keyword position tracking, love that you can see the page that is ranking Enjoyed the auto-generated reporting feature (specifically in the context of keyword position tracking) Shows many different and useful views for competitive research Great templated keyword research tools for those who are not as hands-on with SEO I LOVE the Keyword Magic Tool for honing in on longtail, high-opportunity keywords Katie Wojciechowski SEO Copywriter Read full review
Cons	UX is quite challenging Needs to be responsive so it fits all screens Quick analysis of competition would be good Incentivized CC Craig Connelly Director Read full review	Extra seats can be expensive, as [an] agency with multiple team members this can be frustrating Backlink data is not great, misses out a lot of backlinks (better off using a specialist backlink tool like Link research tools LRT) Tracking multiple keywords, across multiple clients can be costly Daniel Drummond Head of Digital Marketing Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	I [previously] used Semrush for many years and I cannot find any other tool being so complete and easy to use. Incentivized PB Perrine Bettinelli Online marketing assistant Read full review
Usability	It's a pretty simple dashboard. Simple UI/UX. It's not particularly fun and engaging compared to other tools out in the market, but it gets the job done. It's good for the basics only. This tool will fit your needs if you have multiple websites and or are an agency. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The interface is a little less intuitive than it could be. The data is often available but filtering and manipulating the data can be a little difficult at times. Expanded comparisons would be helpful since most of the time seeing more than a few competitors at a time allows for a better sense of how to forecast.
