What do you like best about BuzzStream?

I love the Chrome extension and how that is integrated into the program itself. It is quite useful if you are a small or large SEO company. Plus, the CEO is nice when communicating and helpful with fixing app issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

While the issues were fixed when presented, the application tended to be a bit buggy and did not always work exactly as desired. The Chrome extension definitely lacked some features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

They help a lot with contacting all contacts for SEO outreach. The templates option and scheduling are perfect for doing mass outreach to potential customers. Business performance would be 0 without them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

It's a great tool for documenting progress of an outreach project and for keeping track of all user activity when a particular project is being worked on by a number of people. The email open rates and link click tracking is also very useful. I also love the Buzzbar app as it makes the whole list building process so much quicker. Being able to see comms from previous projects within a particular link partner is also very handy as it gives you a better picture of how they work so you can tailor your approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

It's very obvious when it's in heavy use as it becomes very slow, which when you're working to a time budget, can become a problem. The Discovery element can also be quite buggy - not adding sites to your list, the list you want to add to not showing up etc.

I also find it unhelpful that if when an individual you've reached out to at a particular publication unsubscribes, it marks the whole publication as "DO NOT CONTACT", meaning you're unable to send further emails to anyone. You can overcome this by removing the affected email address, but ideally, Buzzstream would be smarter and just shut down contact to that particular address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's very much a useful tool for speeding up the outreach process. The reporting also provides very handy visuals when communicating on progress with clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

I love how easy it is to manage the outreach list, messages and how the campaign is performing. I've been using BuzzStream for at least 8 years, as a freelance, agency and working in-house. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

I never found a lot of exciting contacts in the research lists. Something that used to be a negative but they fixed recently is the Ahrefs data integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

Great to manage link campaigns/outreach as a team. We can see how each campaign is going, who's contacting who and ditch messy excel lists that people don't use together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

Open and click rate tracking on outreach emails is invaluable, and the ability to send during particular windows of time depending on the campaign is so useful for international outreach. Shared inbox and ability to reply as a colleague also really useful for when people are off sick or on annual leave, to ensure nothing gets missed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Like most outreach tools, automated prospecting can be a bit off - e.g searching for UK sites and it pulls in USA ones, but not really an issue if you're using a media database (and the buzzmarker tool really speeds up manual prospecting anyway). Customer service is also great, they're really responsive and helpful, and are quick to implement suggested new features and services that are suggested by users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

Get it! I moved my last agency onto it and as soon as I started my new role I got my new agency onto Buzzstream too. It's far superior to other, more expensive tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ability to test out different headlines so we can pitch most broadly with the ones that have best open rates, ability to see if emails haven't been opened so we can re-pitch without fear of duplication, ability to send only during appropriate hours for international campaigns - have had much more digital PR success since moving to buzzstream and am a huge fan Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Sometimes, with no-fault from the platform, my email gets disconnected when it gets 'too hot'. If somehow miraculously Buzzstream would fix that, it would be great (no way this is possible, but just to blow off some steam :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

You have to give Buzzstream a go, whichever solutions you might be considering. It's just too good of a tool to be missing on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

Handling thousands of emails every day is not easy, but Buyzzstram helps keep things clean & organized. The entire team can work on the same projects without stepping on any toes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

BuzzStream is probably the only dedicated search, prospecting, and CRM tool available for link building outreach and partnerships. I love the way they have focused on the smallest details in the overall link building process of various organisations and attempted to solve thise problems in a very practical and pragmatic manner. We have taken 4 seats on the tool and I really like how multiple people can manage their own leads or assign it to someone else to avoid confusion and contacting the same people over and over again. I also like how it seamlessly syncs with our email accounts to show all the previous conversations to everyone in the team and keep them updated about the leads. The inbuilt bulk outreach system is amazing and works pretty well. Overall, I like using BuzzStream as an end to end tool for outreach and link building activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Even tho its packed with a bunch of useful features and integrations with other tools like Hunter, BuzzStream can sometimes feel buggy and complicated. Even the most simple task can take a while to complete and that can be a turn off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

New users should spend some time to understand the UI and UX properly before launching their campaigns Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using BuzzStream for our outreach and link building activities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

Setting up templates is nice and simple and the dynamic fields are very useful. Once a template is set up, it is very quick to start outreaching, and the feedback on email opens and clickthroughs is almost instant. Adding contact details from websites with the Buzzstream Buzzmarker is very useful and easy to do. I like how you can share templates with team members and how easy it is to move prospects between lists and users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

As a relatively new starter to outreach, I find the interface quite hard to navigate in terms of remembering how to get to different parts of the tool, but that may get better with time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

I would definitely recommend this software if you are staring out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

Buzzstream is great for allowing me to contact large volumes of prospects quickly. The instant feedback on open and clickthrough rates enables me to tweak my template and gauge reception and interest. Showing outgoing mail and incoming replies from within the software is a fantastic way of keeping correspondence clear and organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a learning curve, and new users will need to complete the BuzzStream University to understand the product. Also, the BuzzStream Discovery, which is a tool for finding Influencers, requires many upgrades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

This tool is great for managing multiple direct reports or freelance contacts. Super easy workflow once you get the hang of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

The interface can be a little confusing at first. The design is a little bit confusing, but that's really my only complaint Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

Just make sure to do a few test campaigns first. It's a great tool but it has some interesting quirks you'll want to know about before starting using it too heavily Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuzzStream solving and how is that benefiting you?

Working with multiple people on link building projects can result in a lot of redundant work. Buzzstream makes it easy for my team to know who needs to do what and when they should do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
