Chose BuzzSumo
We still use SEMrush for our SEO and content department and don't use BuzzSumo much for social media these days so what BuzzSumo does for our agency it does better than the competitors and that's primarily advanced monitoring and the relevant data associated with placements …
Chose BuzzSumo
We have used TapInfluence and it is definitely better for finding influencers, but it does lack a lot of the other capabilities that are available with BuzzSumo.
Chose BuzzSumo
BuzzSumo is an excellent tool because it incorporates a lot of different software functions into one.
Chose BuzzSumo
BuzzSumo is a great software because it does a little bit of everything, but it does not do some of the focuses super well, such as influencer marketing, etc.
Chose BuzzSumo
We have used TapInfluence which is much more expensive. It is definitely better in the influencer category, but BuzzSumo provides more functionality beyond that.
Chose BuzzSumo
I am not really sure of another software out there that does all of these things within one. It really is diverse and saves on additional subscriptions.
Chose BuzzSumo
BuzzSumo is really the only solution for a fully functional social media application to help you succeed.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buffer is a tool that can be very useful for certain uses of Twitter, but in reality, it is very limited when you want to demand a little more. The pros actually weigh a lot, but the serious limitations in several regards do not allow us to give it a higher mark.

Chose BuzzSumo
BuzzSumo is really the only platform we have used in the influencer niche, but it definitely works well for us.
Chose BuzzSumo
Hootsuite is lacking in some of the features available to help plan your content strategy which Buzzsumo helps to fill in the gaps.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo seems pretty far ahead of many of its competitors. Specifically, I find that its data pool is much more extensive and in-depth compared to mainstream competitors. For example, Buzzsumo seems to be more aware overall of tangential topics that are relevant to–but not …
Chose BuzzSumo
Mention was a lot more expensive and was very limited in the number of search terms. It also didn't count shared by content piece.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo is really easy to understand and does give a clear insight on trends and subjects to keep an eye on. It's a general tool that not only keeps up with keywords but with the subject in general, which is very convenient. Also, it doesn't need a big tutorial to get through, …
Chose BuzzSumo
  • Sprout Social and Salesforce are extremely expensive and don't offer the same powerful content marketing features that Buzzsumo offers for a third of the price
  • The crisis monitoring and social listening tools within Buzzsumo are much more user-friendly
  • The permissions in Sprout …
Chose BuzzSumo
I have found Buzzsumo to be great regarding its social aspect (finding influencers, popular content and getting shares), but in order to reach out to influencers you need to use other tools.

Also, Buzzsumo can be used to find socially popular content but other tools might be …
Chose BuzzSumo
I selected BuzzSumo because it had a few insights that Google Trends didn't. However, because Google Trends is free, I would recommend it to anyone who wants similar features, but can't afford to pay the price for BuzzSumo.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo is probably the best tool when it comes to social shares. Other tools like Ahrefs and Mention can get you similar data, but those tools have other focuses (social mentions and baclinks). If you want accurate social share counts for your blog and other companies, …
Chose BuzzSumo
Analytics only provides info on what is performing on our own site, Buzzsumo searches all of the internet to do that.
Chose BuzzSumo
Google Trends is amazing, but Busssumo gives you influencers. Trends will influence what you write. Buzzsumo influence who you write to. It is a difficult one to answer. Both are great, but I would happily pay for Buzzsumo.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo solves for the media monitoring challenge better than any alternatives.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo is much better than Socialbro at identifying industry influencers on social media.
Chose BuzzSumo
We use them in tandem. We’ve found little crossover between the two.
Chose BuzzSumo
Buzzsumo has more features when compared to Followerwonk. I only ever used Followerwonk to find new followers on Twitter and build out targeted lists. Buzzsumo I use endlessly for competitive research (social media, back links, social media influencers as well as top performing …
Chose BuzzSumo
While they show similar metrics to Buzzsumo, I like the visual aspect of Buzzsumo and the breakdown it has per channel. It's simple, but effective.

It's well suited for marketing agencies of all sizes who need to quickly monitor the placements of their clients in the media. It's helpful to professional content creators to see how existing content and topics are performing online. It's perhaps less appropriate for a single freelance user with a limited budget who could do much of that work for free online, albeit with far greater consumption of their most valuable resource - time.

Cons
  • Although I think it's hard, I'd like to see it being used for other mediums as well such as Twitch, etc.
  • It could have better backlink data to include more backlinks that each content piece has.
  • One or two more pricing tiers might work.

Usability
The interface is a little clunky for me, especially on mobile. However, the directions are clear and it didn't take long for me to figure out how to use it. I just wish that things were a little more streamlined.

The support we have received over the years has been wonderful. They have definitely demonstrated excellent customer service. We find the chat support to be the quickest and most useful for the day-to-day questions.

Return on Investment
  • It has had a positive return as it has allowed us to create better content and gain popularity online.
  • Though the cost is relatively high in my opinion, it has allowed us to make better organic content than we would have paid this cost on ads.
  • Helps us find influencers for campaigns.
