1. Visual link explorer in a form of mind map is brutal.

2. The link auditing features are fast and easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Interface on rank tracking part of the site is not as pleasing as it can be, it should be less clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great overview over the entire website. Descriptive and useful information about current problems and how to fix them. Can immediately check if the problem has been solved. Shows you three most important issues you have to fix for the greatest effect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes rechecking if the problem has been solved is not working correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CognitiveSEO is a very usefull tool that we work with for each link building campaign we are involved in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not so many. An improvement on rank tracking dashboard would help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the content grading for competitors + the content evaluator for your own content that gives keyword suggestions. The visualizer for the external links is pretty cool too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of a specific thing I dislike at the moment. I will say that the price is a littttle expensive, but I also didn't use the tools for all its capabilities. I found that I still used Ahrefs for some of the functions that Cognitive SEO has, so that the main reason the price didn't seem worth it. I almost wish I could just get the content function and use that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Rank tracking & the content analysis tools are highly useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can sometimes fail to render the rank tracking graph requiring you to refresh - really not a big issue though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The content tool for sure. It's a good way to optimize your existing content. The tool will tell you all the important keywords you are missing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is still new for me and I haven't had enough time to explore everything yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The content assistant is something that other tools don't offer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really. Everything is logically laid out in the proper order Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not a professional SEO worker but i can say their tools are very easy to use, every SEO data, links, info about competitors website are very well explained. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike, The trial it was enough for me to understand everything Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was using two separate products for keyword tracking and inbound analysis before a friend recommended CognitiveSEO. It really reduced costs at work and I am happy that I have these two components in the same place. Now I can monitor rankings on both desktop and mobile, keep track of backlinks and organize them by type. Not to mention the other perks that Cognitive has related to the two above.

The UI is a bit off, but they are currently beta testing a new version. I really needed some time until I could find the way to create custom filters. If it hadn't been for their staff's help, I still wouldn't have known how to do it today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Good set of core metrics drawing largely from Majestic SEO (but far beyond just Majestic's metrics), keyword classification, and risk algorithms. Good analysis quotas for link numbers and total reports (FAR better than Link Detox/LRT). Also many other useful SEO tools for keyword research and content optimization.

Currently Cognitive SEO is both cheaper and better (more features, tools, and metrics) than Link Research Tools/LinkDetox which makes them the best option on the market for link risk analyses, at least for experienced SEOs. As a second tier analysis tool, it far outclasses the basic link index/data services like Ahrefs, Majestic, and Moz/OSE and already integrates some of these services' data.

- Risk algorithms are less transparent than Link Detox, particularly for the csv export (for those like myself who prefer working from excel over the clunky online web tool). Definitely something they could easily improve on and hopefully do.

- There is no ad hoc analyses feature for assessing metrics on a given list of links (rather than a website's link profile).

- Limited upsells like Google malware listing status and Google indexation check for links is not part of the basic analysis and very costly so I just do this in-house. Hopefully not a practice they expand on since this business practice is what has made their top risk analysis competitor, Link Detox/Link Research Tools, almost completely useless for any company except a large agency.
