| Considered Both Products | No answer on this topic | Chose Meltwater We love Meltwater for all the extra features, with the abilities to customize. A lot of other PR software doesn't allow for that kind of drill-down, so I really appreciate that from Meltwater. Invited by the Vendor A de minimis incentive was given to thank the reviewer for their time. The incentive was not used to bias or drive a particular response, nor was the incentive contingent on a positive endorsement. More Info Chose Meltwater Meltwater far exceeds Compete PRO because Compete never generated robust reports for us. It only allowed us to look up certain circulation numbers. Independently Invited by TrustRadius A de minimis incentive was given to thank the reviewer for their time. The incentive was not used to bias or drive a particular response, nor was the incentive contingent on a positive endorsement. More Info |
