What do you like best about LocaliQ?

I can't speak from an agency perspective (of managing multiple accounts), but I can speak from a brand/in-house perspective that is expanding rapidly into international territory with an estimated Google Ad spend of over $1M this year. For us, this was a no brainer! The streamlined management UI (the "manage" tab and the Query Stream are extremely powerful tools), the single pane view for both Microsoft and Google Ads, and the wealth of knowledge the Wordstream staff provides have been extremely rewarding (and helpful) in optimizing this large and ever-expanding account. We plan on continuing to expand our account and we are happy for Wordstream to expand with us as we do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

The only thing I wish Wordstream had is a script library. As I move farther away from an individual contributor role and more towards management/strategy, it's hard for me to keep up with all the best practice scripting, ad scheduling techniques, etc. I'd like to take a bit of my manual excel analysis, and script hunting, and have it all within this platform - that would make Wordstream a true one-stop-shop for Advertisers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Wordstream is beyond just the software...the level of support and knowledge from their staff is invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With Wordstream, we are solving the problem of maintaining and optimizing efficiency as we scale a large (and historically poor performing) Google and Microsoft Ads account. When I took over this account (amongst the 9 other digital platforms I manage) it felt like a daunting task to fix over six years of bad practices - I pretty much inherited a dumpster fire of a Google Ads account when I first started working here. Wordstream helped me optimize and accelerate our time to value on the account, bringing our Cost Per Conversion down by over 40% while providing a clear path on which ads needed optimizing and refreshing (which also led to our CPC lowering, and our CTR being over 75% better than our competitors). Wordstream, both it's staff and it's software, have become my trusted advisors and partners in Digital Marketing and Search Advertising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The 20 min work week ensures you're on top of regular activities with the minimum of effort.

Other important information is simply presented so the owner can gain useful insights quickly and easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

There should be more checks and balances to prevent unwanted outcomes - overspend, low CPI, pausing ineffective ads etc.

Secondly, I only found it partially useful for the strategy of the account. The user still needs to know how to set up online ads, but once that is decided, Wordstream is great at making it easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Great if you want a simple way to manage your online advertising.

The onboarding support is helpful, but quite expensive and re-iterated best practice in advertising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our Google Ads agency refused to follow standard practices. Consequently, we needed an alternative but on a tight budget. Wordstream was excellent at allowing us to manage online advertising with a minimum of effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

There are many ways that Wordstream has helped us to organize our campaigns, help our staff focus on important information, and even helps us with simple reporting to our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

While it does have some shortcomings, Wordstream listens to feedback and has implemented a lot of new and great features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Each of our employees is able to manage more campaigns than they were to without it. It helps them to quickly look at a campaign and identify opportunities to improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The blog content is likely to capture the attention of many looking to improve campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

Aggressive sales tactics, no follow up with me after the deal was signed for a month. The consulting call was a joke. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Don’t use this unless you have money to throw away without expectation of results. Your best bet would be to do it on your own instead of getting sold all kinds of garbage you don’t need like “consulting calls”.

Also whatever you end up signing for they will try to sell you more, even if you are unhappy.

They did give me a month free to try to make me happy, well I’m not and out more than $1500. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Absolutely nothing was solved by using Wordstream. This was my experience, not everyone’s. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

My wordestream reps have helped me setup proper conversion tracking that actually has meaning. This has enabled me to finally see which campaigns are generating results. Also, their direct partnership has helped answer questions and solve account problems that I could not solve on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

None at this point. I had issues at the start with a rep that wanted to shoehorn me into her idea of what I needed, but as soon as I complained, I was matched with someone who has been helpful in ways my business needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm just getting started, but I can see how the changes we've made will help me get far better results from my ad budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

WordStream has proven a great asset to our company and the management of our clients AdWords accounts. The obstacles it helps us overcome and or prevent all together have proven how valuable WordStream is has a performance tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I have nothing to declare at this time and as an agency, we are quite happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

I find WordStream to be a valuable tool and highly recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Appropriating the best match keywords and disavowing the negative keywords is a much smoother process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The 20 minute work week is easily the greatest feature. I love that if I'm having a busy day that I don't have to put in any guesswork and I have suggestions ready to go that I can act on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

The only thing I dislike really is the limited control over facebook ads. It would be cool to see some of the tools (Like working with dynamic ads) that are available in Facebook's interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have been able to manage our time more efficiently as well as take on more clients because we can now promise the same results in half the amount of effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

You should know that you can do most of what WordStream does directly in Google AdWords - but it's going to take you a lot longer and you'll end up very frustrated. With WordStream, they take the always-changing AdWords interface and offer a consistent view into managing your Campaigns, Keywords, Ad Groups and individual ads. You can make bulk changes and then publish when you're ready.

The best feature for me is their 20-Minute Work Week dashboard. If I do nothing else, I make sure Ii visit my dashboard every Monday and review their suggestions. Not all of them are 100% relevant, but most are. When it's not relevant, you indicate it as such and their AI learns and provides better suggestions later.

I've seen a marked increase in our conversions and a decrease in our overall ad spend since adopting the WordStream platform. I highly recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

There aren't any significant issues or dislikes that I have come across so far. There's a slight learning curve, but their on-boarding team is very helpful, friendly, and patient to help you get going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Run their tool to evaluate your account to establish a baseline. I found their onboarding team to provide a tremendous value to getting us started, including making sure our Google Tag Manager was configured correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We were trying to improve our ROAS with limited resources that we could dedicate to paid search. This tool has allowed me to allocate resources elsewhere vs hiring an agency or full-time person to manage our campaigns on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
