Brand24 was my alternative to Mention, I switched back in 2018 because Mention's pricing was going up. While Brand24 is a U.K. based company, I still thought it may be beneficial to me here in the U.S. However, I didn't think about time zone differences and when the support …

Chose Mention
Talkwalker is very similar to Mention. However, Talkwalker found much fewer results for our company. It did find similar results, so there was a crossover, but all the results Talkwalker found, Mention also found. The pricing is also much higher for Talkwalker, with much fewer …
I like both, for different reasons. I'm more inclined to use Awario for the bulk of my tracking work (including online lead generation) because I have access to a premium plan via a lifetime deal. With an unlimited budget, I may pick Mention.
Many other tools are large-scale management systems with capabilities to respond. If your focus, however, is more on the monitoring side, then it's not necessary to have such a bulky solution and Mention could be the lightweight solution you need.
Definitely more affordable than Meltwater for the monitoring side of things. The social monitoring also takes what we want from Hootsuite and provides that coverage as we don't need the social sharing/conversation piece of either. So we're very pleased with the tool overall and …
Honestly, I did a little research on different competitors, but my budget was very tight. Mention was the best reviewed and had the best reputation based on the price point. It was really an easy decision as all the other software solutions were charging $100s of dollars a …
Currently, there are no other tools available with the features that Mention has possible according to our knowledge and experience. We firmly believe that Mention has placed themselves in a category all of their own. In the ten years, our company has been around. We have yet …
Mention is an all-in-one listening tool. It is designed specifically for that purpose, so you don't fall victim to distractions that other similar products offer.
SentiOne is a major part of our organization. We are solving a lot of problems in the organization by using SentiOne. It has been operational in our organization for a long time and has a great find for us all in all. I like that feature that it gives me all information about …
Mention is perfect if you are looking for a fairly inexpensive software that will help you monitor your brand reputation, help you discover SEO opportunities, and potentially help you generate sales revenue. While I know Mention can work with bigger companies, I personally feel this fits the SMB market the best. On the other hand, Mention may not be for you if you have a mega brand and need to see sentiment analysis.
SentiOne is one of the best available platforms in the market dealing in customer automation on AI level to help businesses grow. We are very much impressed by their services, all in all as they are offering the best possible solutions to every problem which makes it more reliable and trusted in order to handle business.
The platform easily measures social media, blogs, posts worldwide using different algorithms, collects public mentions, and automatically analyzes the situation then provides a customizable solution that will have more chances to get accepted and will work fine.
It has the best features to be the best in terms of functionalities and features include in it.
They need to be more accessible and responsive to our questions instead of making us hold for hours and do not provide any solution which is tiring and less professional.
Customer support needs a lot of attention and has more knowledge about the platform to be helpful.
Mention works quickly and its user interface is easy to use. Alerts update regularly and I've never noticed any lag. It integrates with our CRM via Zapier, but this is not something which we use yet. The only thing I would say is that it takes time for Mention to reach its full potential. It only starts to rank influences from when you set up the alert, so it can take a few weeks to build a map of your influencers.
Mention always responded promptly and gave excellent support. Any problem we had with the software, from login trouble to broken features were addressed quickly. There was once a problem with our quota, where we were unable to see results we should have been able to see. We sent an email, and within an hour, the situation was resolved!
Brand24 was my alternative to Mention, I switched back in 2018 because Mention's pricing was going up. While Brand24 is a U.K. based company, I still thought it may be beneficial to me here in the U.S. However, I didn't think about time zone differences and when the support would be available to me. Normally when you have a question, you want it answered right now, but that was a bit of a problem for them. Mention is very quick with support and understanding of their own program.
SentiOne is a major part of our organization. We are solving a lot of problems in the organization by using SentiOne. It has been operational in our organization for a long time and has a great find for us all in all. I like that feature that it gives me all information about new mentions to my inbox every day and informs me about it which gives day-to-day insights, change or update strategies.
Mention has had a positive impact on my business because it gives people the impression that I was following them, even if I might not have been. It makes me appear active on all social media platforms, even if I ONLY look at my mentions each day!
Because I have only used the free plan but have benefitted greatly, I would say that my ROI is fantastic!
The only negative impact that Mention has is that I do get a daily email in my inbox, and it is one more thing to check. However, it is worth the time.
The best feature that I like the most and have been using for a long time that its analytical section is up to mark.
When I open the analytical section it gives me the all insights of my audience including their gender, location, days when most of the mentions are published which is great to have. It is best to have more marketing wins as it does not limit the searches of keywords.
This helps to search multiple phrases connected with a marketing strategy which is life and most recent in trends.
