(Original )Information
What do you like best about LocaliQ?

My whole experience with Wordstream has been fantastic. During our onboarding, the consultant we were assigned was very knowledgeable, provide great advice and always followed up our calls with helpful documentation, guides, etc. She quickly understood how we would be using the platform and focused our conversations so that I got the most out of my time. The platform itself is very powerful while still being easy to use. I love that I can manage multiple PPC networks all in one place rather than having to jump between native platforms. I also find that many of the functions I need to perform are much easier in Wordstream than they are on the native platforms. Finally, the 20-Minute Work Week is a great tool for keeping my campaigns healthy on a weekly basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

It's hard to find something to dislike about Wordstream, but if I had to come up with something, I would say they could expand on the 20-Minute Work Week tool so that it does a more thorough examination of the health of the account for those of us who would be happy to devote more time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We had been using a managed solution that had yielded very poor results prior to moving to Wordstream. Bringing PPC management in-house by using the Wordstream platform made campaign management so much easier than if we were to rely on the native tools within the networks. While we're still working on optimizing our campaigns (we are in an extremely competitive, overpriced market with regard to PPC), Wordstream has made focusing on negative keywords easy, helping us to bring down our CPA.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

QueryStream is a fantastic way to save time when trying to weed out irrelevant queries for search campaigns. This is my most-used feature - I also appreciate the 20-Minute Work Week - even if not all suggestions are useful, it's helpful as a quick check-in on the health of my accounts. The regular calls with a consultant are also nice to get my questions answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

Sometimes not all suggestions (especially when it comes to adding keywords or splitting ad groups) are applicable to my accounts. Would love to see even more personalization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

It's a great tool for small teams who need assistance with managing one or multiple accounts. I think the tool is strongest for Google Ads and Bing, but utility is growing for Facebook/Instagram as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use WordStream to efficiently manage our PPC campaigns (mainly Google and Bing) with a small marketing team. It's definitely saved me time, and helped to improve our CPC and CPA by identifying wasted spend and opportunities to reach more customers who are likely to convert.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

WordStream is our best resource for our digital marketing group. It makes our advisor be able to comprehend our organization and what we're doing. It allows us to make a good track and handle our CTRs, as without passing through many steps, I can replicate small ads. The first consulting kit aims to respond to questions and has provided me with a lot of good advice on the thoughtful approach to our business and has supported me with transformation strategies to increase my ROI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

Some algorithms should be smarter, as I think they are too simple now. When it indicates if the user's intention is relevant, it invalidates close misprinting of key terms, and I would like to have full control over it. Also, I would like to see more help for Linkedin advertising, particularly on the profile dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

WordStream saves some valuable time, improves productivity and can boost performance when correctly used. So, for me, WordStream is highly recommended. However, WordStream is not suitable if you're already effectively going over Google AdWords or making changes based upon the information you're discovering there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use WordStream to handle our Google AdWords account more effectively. I was personally cynical about WordStream before testing out, but the program performed very well and WordStream workers were dedicated to our progress. It allows us to limit the amount of hours we invest on it and to increase performance directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

Wordstream was helpful for a couple of years. Quite pricey, and mistakes were made by using their system with google and no one would refund me overcharges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

But when I could no longer use their service and tried to cancel it, they charged me for 2 more months. They will not answer my repeated emails to refund me. I am at a loss as to what to do and out almost a thousand dollars. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Know that it is very hard to leave once you are using wordstream and they may charge you for extra months. I had to cancel my credit card to stop charges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

None anymore, I cancelled and am trying to get a refund. When I need a service after the web issues get resolved, I will be finding another company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The 20-minute work week offers a fantastic quick overview of what can be done to improve the performance of various aspects of your Google Ads account; it's more in-depth than the 'recommendations' in Google Ads natively, and truly does help to increase performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

My least favourite part of Wordstream is the keyword research tool, as I don't find it to be in-depth enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

A great tool, but on the pricey side. If you're an agency with client accounts to manage and have the money to spend on a tool like this, I would highly recommend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Wordstream has made my life as an advertiser a lot easier: accounts are easier to manage, it gives advice on what areas can be improved on, and I have seen a massive increase in ad account performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

Wordstream is always available to help you. When I had an issue with one of my clients conversions I was able to speak with a specialist and make sure everything in the account was set up correctly. I have yet to have a single issue with Wordstream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

Honestly, I haven't run into any issues as of yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

There are two things I LOVE about Wordstream. First, being able to get help with setting up all of my conversions across accounts was a life saver. Second, using their platform to write out my ads is very helpful and super easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The agency advisor was spot-on and provided the strategy and more importantly the rationale to guide a dying PPC campaign for a client into a flourishing money maker for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would like to meet with my advisor more often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

I started a new job recently and took over their Google Ads. I had a year of Adwords experience before this, but I wasn't prepared to handle the huge, messy, and very badly managed account I took over. I found Wordstream and was intrigued by its management platform and its offer of providing an advisor just for you -- in my past experience, I found Google only offers that if you spend a certain (large) amount of money monthly. I've been with Wordstream for a few months now and I am very pleased! They offer not only the advisor but a separate team to ensure your tracking is done correctly -- something I definitely could not do myself. I can tell I'm moving from being a beginner/intermediate user of Google Ads to much more of an expert. And my advisor is very helpful, patient, and responsive via email too. I can even listen to recordings of our sessions. They've really thought this platform through and tailored it to be truly helpful to users like me who are managing a ton. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I'm honestly not sure if there's anything I dislike about this platform. I guess I wish ALL functionalities/settings could be changed via WS, but there's just a few that I still have to do via Google and they're not frequent changes so it's really not that bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

You should consider paying a little more for extra consulting hours. There's only one hour per month included, and I found it goes very fast. You can break it up into two half-hour sessions, but I found that went SUPER fast. I recently paid more to have two hours per month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm in the process of improving an account that was very badly managed. I first did all of this data analysis by myself, but Wordstream really helps me a ton. I've dramatically improved our keywords, our ads, and our reach, while also decreasing our cost per lead. The 20-minute workweek really helps me fix some problems (like high spend and poor ad performance) and it also suggests new keywords. My advisor provides a more personalized approach based on my company's needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

I love how WordSteam shows me suggested optimization activities in the 20-Minute Work Week dashboard. This helps save time for me. I also love the section of the performance report that shows the activity completed on the account each month. This helps me demonstrate value to my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

The only downside of WordStream so far has been where the Google or FB API limits what I can do in the WordStream interface. Sometimes it's annoying to have to switch over the Google Ads interface to dig into a location report for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

WordStream is great for my small agency with 10-15 PPC campaigns running. I think it's a great tool if you're reaching the limit of what your resources can support and/or you want to improve the performance of your PPC campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

WordStream helps me manage more accounts than I could otherwise and has proven to help me improve performance on my PPC campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
