Considered Both Products
Brand24
Chose Brand24
Brand24 is the best social media tracking software we have used to date. Others always seem to be limited to just tracking your own social accounts.
Chose Brand24
I would start with Mention as opposed to beginning with Brand24. We originally used Mention but the price was increasing year-over-year so we wanted to try a cheaper alternative. We eventually did go back to Mention after Brand24, due to its ease of use and it was also easier …
Chose Brand24
I needed a low-cost way to monitor brand mentions. This was the one that worked for me.
Chose Brand24
Brand24 was priced right compared to other more expensive tools that offer similar functionality. It also offered more keywords/hashtags/users to track and the filters were very robust to find the posts that matter most.
Chose Brand24
Unfortunately I believe that Brand24 is not as complex and helpful as Brandwatch or Spredfast, but I do believe it is a more modern and complex tool than Sysomos. Brandwatch and Spredfast just have more abilities and seem to pull in more complex and comprehensive data that is …
Iconosquare
Chose Iconosquare
Iconograph was the first/best analytics platform we used to provide Instagram reports to clients. It stacks up well against other reporting platforms like Whatagraph and Agency Analytics, though it is not quite as feature-heavy as Agency Analytics.
Chose Iconosquare
Like other social media management platforms, Iconosquare has many similar features that allow for better Instagram management and monitoring. I'd say that for brands with a large focus on Instagram, or those looking to catapult their Instagram profile, Iconosquare is for you. …
Chose Iconosquare
I only use Iconosquare for our Instagram needs.
Chose Iconosquare
Iconosquare is a specialty analytics tool, specifically designed for tracking Instagram performance. A lot of the one tool for all solutions do many things well, but not any one thing great. For Instagram, we needed something that could measure our brand's Instagram post …
Chose Iconosquare
We focus primarily on Instagram with our social media strategy, so Iconosquare delivers the best experience by far for that platform.
Chose Iconosquare
Iconosquare is definitely the easiest platform to read and has the most simple user interface in my opinion. Social Report definitely has more metrics you can use and more platforms to pair to gain more insights, yet the interface is outdated and harder for junior employees to …
Chose Iconosquare
We only looked at Iconosquare because there wasn't much else out there with the same level of analytics, filtering options and features that this tool offered for Instagram. Other tools have some Instagram analytics, but they don't focus on the data that needs to be looked at …

Likelihood to Recommend
Brand24 is perfect for a company that wants to build up its social media presence. It's great to know when our organization is mentioned online so I can engage with other companies. I like the mobile app but if there was a way to be notified via phone with it that would make it even better.

A good match for someone looking into Iconosquare would be a social media manager looking to streamline their analytics process. It is for someone who may be pulling these numbers manually and wants a centralized location to pull numbers across platforms. Iconosquare also allows you to schedule your content, which provides another one-stop shop. Where it would be less suited is someone who may not use more than one social platform.

For those looking for more robust social media management platforms that include other channels, Iconosquare might not be the platform for you.
