BuzzStream
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream stacks up quite well compared to its competitors. In particular, HootSuite and HubSpot. BuzzStream has many of the same capabilities that its competitors do, at a fraction of the cost. We selected BuzzStream because it had a fairly flexible contract, and it was …
Chose BuzzStream
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 …
Chose BuzzStream
Buzzsumo is strictly a 'research & brand-watch' based tool whereas BuzzStream helps me to be actionable. Google Drive is used primarily for the organizational aspect, but BuzzStream is like 1000x better as we can see when things are done and not depend on people to fill it out …
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream is a better email solution if you want the CRM features.

It has a more comprehensive set of features. In fact, there's a lot of those features that could get confusing for someone who just used it.
Chose BuzzStream
I haven't used many other link building tools. The only other way that I've found to stay organized is to use Google Spreadsheets. I like BuzzStream because you can have different profiles for each client, can manage users and messaging, and it reminds you when it's time to …
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream is better for larger teams whereas Streak is great for smaller teams or those who are just getting started with personalized outreach/link building.
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream focuses on SEO rather than PR, which requires some specific functionality that the other tools do not have. If you are doing SEO, then BuzzStream is a better fit. If you're doing PR then perhaps keep looking.
Chose BuzzStream
Buzzstream is for professionals. There are other similar tools and each tool is better at something. Mailshake is a great simple tool for outreach, but it doesn't have database management like Buzzstream. Buzzstream has maybe the best database management among the link building …
Chose BuzzStream
Honestly, haven't used anything else for link tracking that has been nearly as successful as Buzzstream.
While many other SEO tools offer help for link building, they don't track links per se. So I would say Buzzstream is one of the key tools for a digital PR that has SEO …
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream is more of an in-depth system while BuzzSumo is great to use for finding topics and influencers in certain industries. BuzzStream keeps accurate records while BuzzSumo is merely a side tool to use when searching online does not suffice. BuzzSumo does help more than …
Chose BuzzStream
BuzzStream is the only tool that I've used. However, it is the only one that I need to use. It accomplishes all of my needs and does a great job. If there's something better I haven't heard of it. I would recommend this to anyone that asks about it.
Chose BuzzStream
The only other competitor I can think of is Gmail/mail merge/Boomerang. While Gmail can't find contact info, you can use it in conjunction with mail merge to create templated messages along with Boomerang to remind you to follow up in a couple days. This is definitely a less …

Likelihood to Recommend
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.

Cons
  • 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.

Usability
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 Rating
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.

Alternatives Considered
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.

Return on Investment
  • 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.
