## Reviews

### "Thanks for all the hardwork Brandwatch\!" — 3.0/5

> **Poppy** | *13 May 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Brandwatch excels in the publishing and benchmarking modules, which are both streamlined and user-friendly. The high level of support from our account manager and the customer service team ensures that any inquiries are resolved efficiently or have an answer.
> 
> **Cons**: We found that Brandwatch's product roadmap often lagged behind its competitors.&#10;&#10;Additionally, we experienced frequent data inaccuracies from restrictive API limitations. From a usability standpoint, the listening module was unintuitive and lacked the detail we required.
> 
> The team were super lovely, it was sad to say goodbye after working with them for so long. Overall experience was good, however missed a few opportunities for us\!

-----

### "Everything You Need, All in One Place" — 4.0/5

> **Matisse** | *8 May 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Brandwatch brings analytics and reporting together in one place, making it genuinely easy to use. Having everything in a single platform saves time and removes the hassle of jumping between tools — it just works.
> 
> **Cons**: If I had to name one downside, it would be the cost. Brandwatch sits at the premium end of the market, and for smaller teams or organisations with tighter budgets, that price point can be a real barrier. That said, I want to be clear — I don't think the cost is unjustified. The platform delivers.
> 
> Fantastic, I am able to easily create reports, manage all social media platforms and simply copy social content onto other platforms.

### "Excellent Social Media Reporting Tool" — 4.0/5

> **Monica** | *28 April 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Brandwatch is an awesome social media management tool, especially when it comes to reporting and posting. Reporting is fantastic as you can see all your social media performance in one place with clear dashboards, making it easy to track engagement, reach, and overall results without pulling data manually. The reports are also customisable, so you can quickly create insights that are useful for your team or stakeholders.
> 
> **Cons**: Some downsides to Brandwatch is the social media channels can occasionally disconnect, which can interrupt posting or data collection. It’s also difficult to organise reports into folders (event or stakeholder), making things harder to manage at scale.
> 
> Brandwatch has been a valuable social media tool for managing stakeholder expectations, tracking performance, and understanding what content works best across channels.

### "Reporting is well worth it" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *4 May 2026* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The reporting function and using labels to make data valuable. The approvals process works well for our team with one person reviewing and publishing.
> 
> **Cons**: The inability to make alt text mandatory when scheduling a post. Linked In sentiment not being included when exporting engage reports.

-----

### "Insights and Analytics Reinvented" — 4.0/5

> **Manon** | *7 July 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It helped us identify trending topics in our industry, allowing us to engage more effectively with our audience.
> 
> **Cons**: It occasionally took longer than expected to update our social media analytics.
