Why Rio SEO is the best local listing management platform there is.

We use RIO SEO to syndicate and promote our clients' local listings on Google and Bing as well as to the other main data aggregators. It is used primarily by our local listing clients though we are well aware of their other products. RIO SEO allows us to claim our clients local listing information and accurately promote them to Google, Bing and the rest of the business listing and websites online.
Pros
- Their software is really amazing and does the job well and in a routine manner.
- Their support staff is beyond amazing, hands down the best support I've gotten from any company in any industry.
- The proactively find issues and bring them to our attention so we can work with our clients on getting results.
- The renewal process is painless and they help us with reporting to build a case for renewal and retaining the client.
Cons
- The dashboard could be a bit more user-friendly. It takes some training to get used to.
- Keys/legends in the sidebar and in exports to help explain what different sections are for the "laymen" that aren't in this industry 24/7.
- Having a "suggested changes" like what Moz.com/local has in their backend for photos/additional categories. Something that can help the user be more proactive rather than "here's where you're at" a "here's what you can do to improve" would help.
