This is [well-suited] for a smaller agency or a small team. I feel that our team (around 5 people) is the perfect size, as we are all on the same page regarding what everyone is working on. When there are more people and more projects/communications going out, it can become a little chaotic to use.
It should be an essential tool for all website owners - everyone should care about page loading time from the CEO down to the junior web developer. Page speed is a factor that hugely affects visitor satisfaction, and Google takes it seriously by offering PageSpeed Insights. If you work in a larger organisation and focus on one particular part of website development and maintenance, such as a content writer, then this tool won't be as useful. It's intended for users with development or marketing-related responsibility
Sometimes BuzzStream can have glitches but the BuzzStream team is super responsive and receptive to helping you resolve any issues.
There are a lot of clicks and stages you have to get through to save a contact or change a status. It would be nice if BuzzStream developed an autosave option whereby you didn't have to click 'save'every time you change something or update a contact.
Buzzstream is great to help identify sites to get links from, and it makes this process so efficient, easy and personal to all, the ones who are using it and the ones that are receiving. Flawless navigation, good outlook, 10/10!
Support is one of the best aspects of BuzzStream. I know their support team is small and somehow they are able to get back to us right away in a super helpful, friendly fashion. I've had many questions - sometimes they release a new feature, sometimes a feature isn't working correctly and they are quick to answer but also help explain it in a way that makes sense.
I evaluated a few different software solutions before settling on BuzzStream. What made me choose BuzzStream? It was easy--I found that BuzzStream was the easiest of the bunch to get a template and campaign started. Their Chrome extension was easy to use and the customization features were something that (at the time) the competitors did not have. Finally, the cost of BuzzStream was a lot less than the competitors, but it didn't sacrifice features. I actually had a subscription to SpyFu and after using BuzzStream for a few months, canceled it because I found that I never logged in or used SpyFu.
I've never used any software beyond PageSpeed Insights and Google Lighthouse (the source of the PAgeSpeed Insights software.) I've used similar programs like Hummingbird for WordPress that pulls the same data using the same engine, but its really the only game in town as far as I'm concerned.
It's had a positive impact in keeping our entire agency organized. Especially when employees leave, all of their communication is in one place, so it's pretty easy to have someone take over the process.
You can test different messaging for prospects and then determine the most successful.
