Visualping Overview

What is Visualping?

Visualping monitors any webpage and alerts you when it is updated. The alert is sent via email or text message but also via any team notification service like MS Teams, Slack and also API or by entering a row in a spreadsheet. Visualping AI recognizes when a change is important or trivial and flags this in the email. This allows you to filter and focus only on the most relevant changes. Our AI also summarizes what changed since the last time it checked the page so you can save time. Our email notifications attach a screenshot of page with a highlight of the change. Our dashboard provides more analysis tools. Visualping is used to automate monitoring of competitor websites, gain insight into market trends, product launches, pricing strategies, regulatory changes and thousands of other use cases.

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

This tool is one I keep finding uses for outside the usual. I use it for watching competitors when they update their sites, watching pages like ToS for changes, watching for changes from the marketing team so I can be informed when a new campaign happens, and watching internal status pages for errors. The list keeps going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

As more websites start implementing robot checks, I've noticed Visualping is struggling to ping sites that require you to confirm you're not a robot. Then, it becomes a manual check.

I would also like a way to group pings into folders/buckets for easier management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Simply for pinging and alerting on websites I need to keep on top of. There is no more need for me to add a calendar reminder to do these tasks.

The more time I'm not wasting constantly checking, the more valuable time I spent on other things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasional false positive when elements shift on a page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

I like the way you can decide % of change to get alerts for, and the option to measure change by the way the website appears visually. I feel this is unique over the competition. I like that you are pre-warned when you're tracking too many sites, or too many times a day to remain in the "free zone". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

I was transferred to this service from an original site that I would assume VP bought out. I feel like the original Tracker was more flexible, would send more results more often, and would allow for digests. All without charging for every niggling thing they did. VP limits everything that was free or nominal before, so unless you're using it to *MAKE* money, those limitations will annoy you tremendously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Keep up-to-the-minute (or at least close-to that) with site changes that I'd instead have to constantly be refreshing myself for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Visualping Admin of Visualping

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We understand your concerns about the service. We are constantly working to improve our offerings based on customer feedback.

What do you like best about Visualping?

There are a lot of tools out there for staying on top of important updates -- RSS, newsletters, Google Alerts, and so forth. But a lot of the time, they simply aren't available, or take too long to notify, or don't include all updates. Both in my previous experience at large corporations, and in my current role running several websites, Visualping has been essential in keeping track of sudden changes in the competitive landscape -- whether new information updates about companies and their products, new publications by niche experts, and even pricing changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

The main downside is that sometimes I get false alerts, like when a page adds or removes a temporary header that shifts the content vertically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Staying on track of when competing sites add new features, new employees, or other relevant corporate information that isn't available any other way except for checking website updates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

Visualping is very easy to setup and use for varying types of website monitoring. Our organization uses Visualping to track nearly 50 state and national government webpages for regulatory documentation updates and additions, which helps ensure we are the first to know, and no longer subject to the normal delay and associated risk of waiting for official communication. Customer support has been very responsive to help accomodate our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

Visualping does not allow us to break-out recipient groups (i.e. email distros) within a given workspace. This forces us to manage multiple workspaces with similar foci, in order to ensure appropriate recipient lists and reduce noise, based on specific roles and expertise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Visualping helps ensure we are the first to know about government regulatory changes that apply to our products, reducing monitoring burden and associated risk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

As a new, small business owner I find it very easy to use Visualping and it is very user friendly. I've started using it for monitoring my competitors or other folks in my industry to see the frequency of content they post and the alerts from VP help me stay current on this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

None so far to be honest as it does what its intended and supposed to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I no longer have to go back and forth to check competitor social media accounts for new content or spend too much time scrolling through social media in general to find information I need on those I follow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

This tool is exactly what I'm looking for. I need a service that can check websites of interest and report to me when a specific element on that page changes. All I have to do is spend some time setting it up once and it does the rest for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

It's a little bit difficult to set up and use. It's difficult to select the exact element on the page I want it to check for. It also doesn't work as well as I was hoping. Even though I selected a specific element on a page, it still notifies me when anything else on that page changes instead of just that specific element. If this could be fixed, this tool would be perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I needed a service that could automatically check websites of interest and notify me when a specific element on the page changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

I've utilized Visualping in several capacities and it's such an easy setup to use. Working in the event space, I would want to know when calls for vendors or presenters became available and Visualping has saved me from having to chase those down. Similarly, as a job seeker, I've used it to keep track of openings at other companies - I've even used it to keep track of when jobs are listed at my own company to stay up to date! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

Because it's a set and forget situation, there are times I could be reminded of the tool more often. Like quarterly email reviewing what I have setup and some other use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Communication, I'm looking at how to speed up data sharing when the website holds the source of truth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Visualping?

It's easy to set up a monitor on a specific site or portion of a page or even just a specific HTML element. This has been crucial for keeping tabs on competitor sites for updates to their content but also has helped us catch display errors or issues on our own sites.

We get alerts for any content on other industry sites so we can keep up with latest offerings and campaigns our competitors are featuring.

For our own sites it's been a life-saver as a basic uptime monitor can't catch if just a form or a single element has an erorr but Visualping does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Visualping?

Sometimes Visualping will be too sensitive. It will catch changes that don't apply to what we're monitoring. Luckily you can narrow the scope of each monitor to a specific element or keyword so you can refine to reduce false positives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Keeping up with competitors and their latest offerings as well as monitoring our own sites for errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
