What do you like best about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

First of all lovely and quick support. The second is very user-friendly interface. High-end customizable dashboards. Fast with boolean operators and there is no character limitations for the query set up ( there is a limit but you can't reach that limit in theory) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

Nothing, just some features already in the market, and Brandwatch release that features a bit late, but I saw that in 10 years, they want it to be perfect. So they may be late to add features which are already in the market, but when they release it, it is perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence:

Just give it a try if you are seeking a social analytics solution.

They add new features for your need, they are fast. Their interface is so easy to use. If you have to add sentiment/category manually, Brandwatch's interface will help you a lot.

Dashboards are customizable, you can add your charts like a power point slide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

I’ve found Brandwatch’s Consumer Intelligence platform incredibly useful for analysing online conversations and identifying key trends. The AI-driven analytics help cut through the noise, making it much easier to spot shifts in consumer behaviour, emerging market trends, and competitor activity. The dashboards are intuitive and make complex data more digestible, while the custom alerts ensure I can react quickly to any changes in sentiment. With access to deep historical data and a huge range of sources, it provides a really comprehensive view of consumer opinion, making it an essential tool for data-driven decision-making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

I’ve found Brandwatch to be a really powerful tool, but there are a few challenges. It can feel a bit overwhelming at first, especially with the amount of data available, and it takes time to get fully comfortable with all the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence helps me make sense of all the online chatter by pulling out key trends, audience insights, and sentiment shifts without having to dig through heaps of data manually. The AI-driven analytics make it easy to spot what’s trending, track brand perception, and keep an eye on competitors in real time. It’s been really useful for making decisions based on actual consumer behaviour rather than guesswork. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

Few competitors can beat Brandwatch when it comes to being an easy-to-use social listening tool. Its query builder is clean and simple, as are the Brandwatch Academy resources which teach junior colleagues how to use it. The Quick Search function rivals Google Trends in being a 'pick up and play' insight finder. The dashboard templates, equally, are great for both seasoned pros and novice users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

Like any social listening tool, Brandwatch has its limitations. While Twitter/X is, of course, the most accessible social platform for such data scraping, it seldom feels like Brandwatch has tried to innovate out of its over-reliance on the platform; a demand only accentuated by the recent infestation of bot accounts on X. Likewise, a proper audience solution or improved AI sentiment function continue to feel a few years away. Finally, the speed at which Brandwatch gathers mentions is often unpredictable - a massive, ten-year query can load in minutes, while an apparently simple search can take an age.

None of this layers up to a poor user experience, for Brandwatch is certainly not that. But for a company that gets so much right, it is a disappointment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to answer complex client questions using a combination of Brandwatch and other sources, such as search and spend data. Often, a breaking news story that relates to a brand can seem, anecdotally, like a major PR disaster - until a quick Brandwatch search shows it has barely permeated among the target population.

What do you like best about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

The ability to have simple or complex search strings that pull data from global media titles (across different types, incl. social media) is so helpful for evaluating campaign impact in the communications world. Plus, the BrandWatch graph and data presentation function is really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The dashboards can sometimes be glitchy and I've lost whole dashboards before and had to start from scratch. It would also be good to have more social media coverage included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not uncommon to experience small glitches, like things not saving, charts pulling in data from elsewhere, or issues moving elements around within a dashboard. However I have found these are to be expected with more complex tools (of course, I wish they werent). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

customizable UI is its strongest asset. You are able to manipulate the dashboard in any way you need. I frequently use one page to visualize all my numbers, and then a different page to do comparisons. This flexibility makes it very easy for data population.

There is a high skill curve with this tool, but I think its worth the investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence?

As with any social media tool, intergrating owned channels is a challenge. Sometimes its not very clear when a feed is connected vs. when it drops.

Customer service is slower than you woud like it to be for emergency situations, but still works well for normal day to day problems.

The lack of a unified engagement score is very fustrating.

Lastly, the coverage for earned media is a bit weaker compared to other tools ive used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
