What do you like best about Shield?

I think the data they provide is invaluable. They help visualize important metrics for content creators and the data can give insight on how to better create content in the future. Their UI is very natural and easy to use.

In addition, they have very good content in the form of blogs that help inspire content creators with strategy and tactics for getting the most out of LinkedIn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shield?

You have to use google Chrome in order to use Shield, which is a bit annoying and restrictive for non-Chrome users.

Their business tier pricing is not really suitable for startups in the B2B space which is arguably the people who need the tool the most! They need different business tiers for small - medium - large B2B companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

LinkedIn doesn't give great visibility in how your posts perform in their algorithm, but Shield does. As content creators, it's helpful to see the overall reach and the factors that contributed to that reach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
