Considered Both Products
Followerwonk
Chose Followerwonk
I really like the tool for some great insights but you also need another tool for other insights too. It is a great asset to the toolbox and not an all-rounder.
Chose Followerwonk
Hootsuite and Followerwonk are very different tools. One is great for planning posts and content, and the other is great for audience analysis.
Chose Followerwonk
Honestly, I haven't used many other services that compete specifically with Followeronk. One of the reasons for this is that the service Followerwonk offers is typically lumped into other services as additional features or buy-in options. What I like about Followerwonk is that …
Chose Followerwonk
Followerwonk and Google Analytics provide very different data and each resource gives insight into audience. GA helps with audience members who are already using our product, while Followerwonk helps us find new markets and audiences.
Chose Followerwonk
We were not looking for a solution like FollowerWonk, but it was provided free of charge with our Moz Pro subscription so we decided to give it a try. The only other similar tool we have used is the now shut down Twitalyzer. Twitalyzer was more of a tracking tool, while …
Chose Followerwonk
Followerwonk is the easiest tool to gain intelligence from and make actionable decisions based on your Twitter presence alone. While other tools can perform some of the same tasks, Followerwonk provides a suite of very effective and easy-to-use tools that allow for quick …
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 …

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Followerwonk is well-suited for those who are active and at least semi-influential on Twitter. Conversely, it is also very helpful for those just starting out on Twitter as the compare users tab allows for deep comparison to competitors or to those users who you aspire to become more like me in terms of Twitter activity and influence. The many, many analyzation metrics make Followerwonk a very valuable tool for Twitter users looking to grow or just polish their presence, both businesses and individuals alike. I'd recommend Follwerwonk for those who seek to better analyze and refine their social media influence

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.

We will keep using it as long as it remains part of our Moz Pro subscription. If it were separated and the price point did not rise astronomically, we would be very likely to continue using the platform.

Honestly, I haven't used many other services that compete specifically with Followeronk. One of the reasons for this is that the service Followerwonk offers is typically lumped into other services as additional features or buy-in options. What I like about Followerwonk is that it is easy to use, fast, and I don't have to spend hours or any additional money to get the information I need to be successful.

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

Return on Investment
  • One initiative our team launched was a series of educational webinars. We have been able to add an average of six new leads per webinar because of social media. If the messages had been delivered at non-peak times, there would be less likelihood of success.
  • When it comes to social media, it's difficult to nail down specific ROI without referencing a specific campaign. However, our team has seen a consistent follower growth with increasing RT's and Favorites. I attribute this to the right content hitting the right people at the right time.
  • Our team has uncovered a number of valuable relationships with other Twitter users in our industry that have helped us increase the reach of our overall marketing message. These relationships were uncovered using Followerwonk's keyword search.

  • It helped to better guide our content on Instagram.
  • Iconosquare allowed us to track our IG Stories analytics, which surprisingly few social analytics platforms can do.
  • Iconosquare is a great tool to use when you get last-minute fire drill asks about Instagram performance and data.
