What do you like best about BuzzSumo?

I love how easy Buzzsumo is to navigate. You're not bombarded with a ton of features that aren't relevant to you—if you want to stick to just generating content ideas, there's one place for that, if you want to find trending topics, there's another. I also like the alert system where you can receive notifications right in your inbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzSumo?

The mentions and alerts mentioned above can sometimes not be as relevant or specific, I wish you could filter to the top 10 most relevant based on other factors instead of just how they are appearing in Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BuzzSumo?

I really like this platform because thanks to it I can keep up to date with social networks. When you work with social networks and information it is very useful to have a tool like BuzzSumo.

One of the tools that makes it easier to navigate within the site is the search filter and favorites because it gives me a trend perspective according to my daily preferences.

Another great advantage of BuzzSumo is that you can download all the attractive content you find on the platform and I must say that it is a lot, you can also share content in an unlimited way, this way you find the trends of the moment in all kinds of news.

And if you are dedicated to marketing strategies as is my case, you can't even imagine what you can achieve with BuzzSumo, because through it you can keep a close eye on your competition, because let's face it, almost everyone has a BuzzSumo account.

Lately they have been adding new tools to the platform that are amazing and make my job a little easier, especially their metrics tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzSumo?

Honestly BuzzSumo is an excellent platform of superior quality, however its cost is very high, I can't deny that it's worth it, but you do need to have a fairly comfortable budget to hire the services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzSumo:

buzzsumo's connection with the most popular social networks is very intricate and professional, you can do a lot of things through this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

BuzzSumo has helped me a lot, especially when I was a newbie, it helped me understand what content worked and what was better to ignore, it also helped me understand why certain content was trending.

It also helped me to understand my competition and to be able to grow both personally and professionally, yes its price was a big blow to my small business at the beginning but I can say that it was worth every penny I spent on this platform because it didn't take long for me to consider it all an investment.
