"Valuable Monitoring Tool with Room for Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I like the ability to monitor across various platforms, including top tier, local, and podcasts. The monitoring tools work well, particularly the watch terms, which help me filter coverage by client or search term. Without the watch terms, I wouldn't be able to effectively monitor my clients' names or executive exposure across broadcasts, which is especially helpful for national announcements and gathering local media coverage. Additionally, the initial setup of TVEyes was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

There are two main issues: clipping segments is very slow and clunky. It takes way too long to clip and it's not beneficial -- the old platform worked a lot faster with this. Sometimes the clips autoplay at the watch term mention even after you clip it. When you hit the scissors to clip, it shouldn't restart/take you to a new window almost, it should already be an option to start/end clips and clip them. Also, the generate link takes a long time to work sometimes and doesn't always copy/paste correctly. The autoplay needs to be addressed by clips not defaulting to autoplay and following what you clipped the segment as. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Empowers Effortless Broadcast Clipping with Valuable Insights"
5/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I typically use TVEyes Insight to clip broadcast coverage for clients, which is very helpful. The clipping ability is something I really like because my clients like to have physical clips, and TVEyes makes that possible. I also appreciate the audience demographics feature because it provides valuable insights into who is seeing our placements. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy with Nina's help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

Sometimes the search feature doesn't yield the correct results due to on-air mispronunciations or lack of closed captioning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

There are many features I love about TVEyes, which I've been using for the past year. I like that it has an excellent algorithm for compiling articles and the flexibility of using search strings. I also like that it's quite easy to perform complex searches, and the information the service provides is always the most up-to-date available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

We have an excellent team that provides timely customer support. They’ve made my work much easier, and now I can’t imagine working without them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Weekly Reports, Competitive Monitoring, and Instant Insights"
5/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

The weekly reports are excellent, and the ability to monitor the competition is extremely valuable. I really like the breadth of channels, all the system information is presented in a visually appealing way. I also really like the media database, end the instant analysis features is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

I’d like everything to be permanently archived, because it was difficult to enter so many mentions. At times, the platform can feel a bit overwhelming, especially when I’m trying to add a lot at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Once Efficient, Now Hinders Workflow"
2/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I like that TVEyes serves as a one-stop shop, bringing together in one place the ability to see all of our client's work without having to go to each market or website at different times. It helps streamline our processes as we use it to see what our clients are doing so that we can coach them. Under the old system, it helped with time efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

There are a lot of things under Insight that don't work—it's not a user-friendly program anymore, even with additional training. It takes three times the amount of time we used to spend on it, and it's gotten to the point where it has inhibited our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for Media Content Curation"
4.5/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I most like the search feature in TVEyes. Sometimes we don't know when our clients are on or where they're on, and it's easy to just look up their name on whatever network. Every hit they have comes up, which is really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

I like the NMS feature a lot better than the new Insight. The new Insight is really hard to use. There's more features, but I feel like it's a little more flawed and doesn't really work as well for what we're trying to accomplish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Promising Tool but Needs Polish"
2/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I really appreciate being able to monitor broadcast clips for both TV and radio in our market. It helps me provide clients with their clips promptly without having to rely on media outlets to post them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

I think that TVEyes upgraded their platform before they got all the bugs out. So when you upgrade a program, it's supposed to be easier for the user to use versus more difficult. And I feel like Insight is a lot more challenging to use than easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Advanced Search, but Bugs and Slow Fixes Hurt Transcription"
3/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

The two different search options. I like that I am able to get super specific with my search terms using the advanced mode, and that I can do a quick, broad search with the simple mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

It takes super long for issues to get fixed and it can be very buggy at times. The transcription doesn't always work either, making it hard to be very precise in my reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Clip Search by City/Date, But Keyword Tracking and Station Coverage Need Work"
3.5/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I enjoy the ease of searching for clips by knowing the airing city/date/time. It makes it easy to find what I'm looking for as long as I have that information Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

I dislike how infrequently it actually tracks my keyword searches. Oftentimes I'm unable to find a clip without manually searching by city/date/time even though I have keyword searches set up. Additionally, I dislike how difficult it is to get additional stations picked up. One of the stations I frequently need to monitor isn't available on TVEyes which can be frustrating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Monitoring with Room for Quality Improvements"
4/5
What do you like best about TVEyes?

I like that TVEyes allows you to edit and store clips directly within the platform, making it easy for me to find clips to share with the team later as needed. It also allows me to have a tangible link to track in a spreadsheet along with other digital and print mentions, which is really convenient. The initial setup was very easy and it's very user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TVEyes?

I wish the quality of some clips were better. Because TVEyes is capturing so much content, I understand that it can't have 100% high definition, but I have seen services where the quality is a little bit more shareable afterwards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
