"Buzzstream feedback"

2/5

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

It check all the paid links for the website on a monthly basis. We just need to update all the published links on buzzstream and it keep a check on all the links if they are still published or have been removed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Most of the time its not working and we are unable to contact the bloggers.

Also when ever the links are updated for the published links it shows that there is no link but when we check the link it is still there only but it is for some websites only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sending the follow-up emails according to it the scheduled time. So it makes it easy for the user and we don't have to go and recheck all the emails inorder to send the follow-up emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the Chrome extension and link tracking is very useful and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BuzzStream allows one to easily view links and their effectiveness, and make changes where necessary. For small business, though, I have found it unnecessary and hard to train other employees on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's Okay - We utilize this most often for large scale outreach & promotion"

2/5

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

Ability to filter outreach by a variety of metrics including sites, POCs, industries, etc. We like that you're able to A/B test messages by creating different titles, bodies & CTAs. Pretty simple interface and ability to sync up to a variety of emails & users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Could be easier to A/B test on a greater scale - I'd also like to see better tools to mine emails and find industries contacts at scale. We typically use other programs to find emails, contact pages, etc and then upload into BS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Trying to make outreach easier and more streamlined across a wide variety of users. Benefits include time saved, less cross over between common contacts and positive client impact & placements! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Tool, Befuddled By Bugs and UI Issues"

2/5

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

Buzzstream's contact/email discovery tools sometimes work like magic - The info it finds is typically reliable. Also, the combination of outreach and contact management in one app is really valuable, though this is hindered by the app's slow response and bugginess. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

Unfortunately, Buzzstream's platform is slow. And I mean REALLY slow. As someone who uses mass email regularly, the fact that even with automation software it can take up to two minutes to send an email (dealing with contact conflicts and custom variables), the platform is far too slow to handle that kind of work. I've also had Buzzstream:

-Lose contacts

-Lose data on my email campaigns

-Freeze in the middle of mass outreach (hours of wasted time)

However, one of the biggest draws is the lack of compartmentalization between users on the platform. It doesn't make sense that the account for one company would share any and all information between, for instance, PR and SEO. This makes for conflict and confusion when we're going after different contacts within the same organization, or trying to run white-labeled campaigns for clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuzzStream:

Buzzstream can be really powerful when used in conjunction with more rudimentary outreach software. For instance, I'll often run my contacts for SEO campaigns though Buzzstream to gather emails I would have otherwise lacked, and then export them for outreach in a mail merge or other basic outreach system. Buzzstream is definitely a more viable product for close-knit outreach teams and PR than for SEO specialists at this time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Buzzstream solves the problem of email management with outreach, with some degree of success. The epitome of a platform like this would be something flexible, fast, informationally restricted by user (if so desired), and powerful for discovering contacts. Buzzstream excels at contact discovery, which was my most unexpected benefit of the platform, but it falls short at providing the email CRM power I'm looking for.

"Buzzstream review"

1.5/5

What do you like best about BuzzStream?

The buzz stream concept is great. I like the fact that it looks at link building as a work-flow rather than a collection of links and contact email addresses of journalists. I also like the fact that I can share my progress with other people and enable them to view my emails and contacts that I've outreached. Having a a prospecting list and being able to go through it from one single application is also something that technically would make my work a lot easier.

I find amazing the fact that the app can catch the contancts from a website. Something which proved time-consuming at times when I had to outreach foreign media, that published my work before.

I also like the fact that I can categorise prospect lists by campaigns and being able to save template emails to use for specific campaigns is also great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuzzStream?

I really like everything about the buzzstream concept and how it's meant to help. I do dislike however a few things that relate mostly to UX/UI and technical difficulties.

I don't like that you have to load unsafe scripts every time you go to buzz bar. if you work for a day in buzz stream and have to go back and forth quite often, it's becoming a bit too repetitive and distracts me from my work.

Buzzbar also doesn't load all the websites, which is probably the main reason I switched back to excel spreadsheets. When I have a list of 200 prospect websites and 30 websites don't load, I have to do it manually and the effort it takes to get out of the app to see it separately then, outreach separately or go back to the app to outreach makes things harder. I doesn't really require much more time, it's just the effort to brake the process that I've established working in buzzstream.

I think another issue is loading time. Sometime it takes a while to move to the next site in buzzbar. I think if the app could load the next website while you're working on the current one, so that you can switch instantly to the next when you're done would make work much easier. I think that extra second often makes a difference.

User interface - I think a better user interface would also help making work easier. It seems a bit text heavy at times and empty at other times. For isntance the ui for previewing a site on the websites tab.

In terms of functionality, one thing I often do is outreach a piece of content to people that linked to other pieces of content or other campaigns. A function in buzzstream that would allow aggregating all websites that already linked to our brand to be targeted for a specific campaign would certainly help this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We try to make use of viral marketing. Buzzstream is a great tool because it helps spread the news faster to more journalists at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
