## Reviews

### "Consultant" — 4.0/5

> **Alex** | *May 4, 2026* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the AI-generated themes + narratives for the mentions. It really helps organize the mentions for the period into distinct categories.
> 
> **Cons**: Less flexibility around the reporting period parameters. Sometimes I want to look at a specific timeframe, and it won't let me.
> 
> It works well for certain things but I find I often have to supplement some things/metrics with different platforms.

-----

### "Brandwatch another birth" — 4.0/5

> **Srujana** | *November 17, 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Brandwatch is a piece of cake to set up reports and keep an eye on social media conversations.
> 
> **Cons**: Can be a bit of a pain in the neck to use and takes a while to get the hang of, especially for beginners.

-----

### "Best bang for your buck when it comes to Social media management" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *October 31, 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For the money, Falcon.io is the best software out there when compared to its' competitors such as Radian6, etc. - Falcon does an amazing job at monitoring every major social media platform as well as news websites and blogs for whatever search parameters you set up.
> 
> **Cons**: Of all the things Falcon.io does well, it really falls short in the report generation process. There's no way to generate automated reports on a schedule, nor is there any way to create customized reports. Given that we use this in an agency setting for multiple clients, it's a bit of a deal breaker, since we need more in-depth reporting.
> 
> We use Falcon.io in our marketing agency to manage multiple social accounts across all of our client base. Falcon.io is used for social posting, management and listening.

### "Reliable Social Listening Tool for Actionable Insights" — 5.0/5

> **Vishakha** | *April 28, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Brandwatch was how much time it saved me when tracking conversations online. It pulls data from different platforms into one place, so I didn’t have to jump between multiple tools. I also found the dashboards really useful for spotting trends, checking sentiment, and creating reports quickly. Once you get used to it, it becomes a reliable tool for understanding what people are saying about your brand and competitors.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least was that it can feel overwhelming at first, especially if you’re new to social listening tools. There’s a learning curve when it comes to setting up queries and getting the most accurate results. Some reports also need manual adjustments
> 
> My overall experience with Brandwatch has been positive. It’s a strong platform for social listening, brand monitoring, and understanding online sentiment. Once I became familiar with the setup and filters, it made tracking conversations and creating reports much easier. It’s especially useful for getting actionable insights quickly and supporting data-driven decisions. While there is a learning curve in the beginning, it becomes a very valuable tool once you start using it regularly.

### "Where data turns into real decisions" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *May 4, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s a pretty solid tool, especially when it comes to analysis and the volume of data it can handle. The dashboards are really helpful, and support is usually responsive.&#10;It also has a strong cost-benefit for us, and the fact that it’s aligned with data protection standards like LGPD brings a lot of security, it’s even helped us move forward and close deals.&#10;There are still some usability hiccups and cases where manual adjustments are needed.&#10;Pros: strong data volume, fast insights powered by AI, good cost-benefit, data security/compliance, and flexibility to work across different clients.
> 
> **Cons**: Some usability friction in more complex analyses, reliance on manual tweaks at times, and limited coverage in certain data sources.
> 
> My experience has been really positive. It’s a tool we use daily across different clients, and it helps turn data into insights quickly.&#10;&#10;Beyond listening, I’ve been using it a lot for customer care and social media management, which has made a big difference in day-to-day operations. &#10;&#10;The AI-powered image analysis is also a great addition, and the platform is constantly evolving, with AI supporting everything from reading reports to helping with image and photo editing.
