Considered Both Products
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Report definitely has more metrics you can use and more platforms to pair to gain more insights, yet the interface is outdated and harder for junior employees to …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 …
Tracx
Chose Tracx
I like the attention that we have from our team at Tracx. I like that unlike other tools we have tried Tracx allows us to publishing, listen, receive automated reports and track our competition in real time.
Chose Tracx
Because our client has over 300+ schools that we develop content for, Tracx is an awesome toolset and it allows us to add in each school's Facebook URL to monitor conversations at the local level. The ability to observe conversation at the local level is a great feature. …
Chose Tracx
Tracx is just the new generation of listening platforms. It's updated all the time with new improvements that make it even easier to use. Sysomos is good for some simple queries but it's just not enough for more complex needs. Radian6 is stuck in the past, it was a leader …
Chose Tracx
Tracx has excellent precision and responsiveness for campaign monitoring. It's not suited for historical research though, so tools like Crimson and others like that, will still be necessary for a full-service social analytics agency.
Chose Tracx
Tracx covers multiple platforms, including Facebook, which Keyhole removed from its offerings. While we loved NUVI and its interface (very easy to use and sleek), it could not track specific mentions of certain influencers. This was the major deciding factor. Additionally, they …
Chose Tracx
We loved Tracx and loved the customer service! We will join Tracx once they add the features we need.
Chose Tracx
Tracx is better as a listening tool, where as the ones I mentioned above served our team in a community management function.

Likelihood to Recommend
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.

I used Tracx to live-post for the Super Bowl. It made my life MUCH easier being able to post on Facebook and Twitter in one browser and watch the engagement live.

Tracx is a solid software for identifying customer sentiment that would otherwise go unheard and undocumented by our company. We're able to report to our CEO the good and the bad with actual data and do so on an attractive interface. It is also essential in helping us prepare queries well in advance.

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.

Tracx covers multiple platforms, including Facebook, which Keyhole removed from its offerings. While we loved NUVI and its interface (very easy to use and sleek), it could not track specific mentions of certain influencers. This was the major deciding factor. Additionally, they weren't overly salesy and didn't do the whole sales song and dance. We told them we had interviewed about 10 softwares (truth) and had heard it all. We were looking for something very specific. They gave us a demo and then a trial. They also allowed us to build into our contract that if the software did not do as we were promised, we could get out of the contract. Their customer service has been excellent
