Detaminr is very focused, but it’s also highly rated for pricing, and some individuals find it unattainable. The alerts from this app can be less accurate at times, and may capture unnecessary noise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Dataminr is used for a variety of purposes, including breaking news and crisis detection as well as supporting journalism and media. One of the things I love is its ability to solve the problem of information overload. I find it particularly useful in monitoring wide risks and detecting real-time comprehensive risks, including threats and natural disasters. It helps our team move from reacting to anticipating, revealing patterns over time related to repeated unrest, recurring outages, and rising risks in a location. I also appreciate that the initial setup was easy and straightforward. My team and I have grown to love Dataminr. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not all alerts are truly relevant or actionable, and I think there could be a massive improvement on smarter prioritization and clearer scoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how Dataminr allows me to monitor even minor local disturbances that could compromise my team's health or safety, especially as an operation leader with teams in multiple locations across India. It has significantly enabled a shift in our security policy from reactive salvage operations to proactive risk prevention steps, which is crucial for staying ahead of potential threats. I find it faster at detecting potential risk situations compared to other products like Feedly, which is vital for managing safety and productivity. Furthermore, Dataminr plays an essential role in keeping my team members safe by alerting me to events that might disrupt productivity or employee safety. This proactive approach in monitoring enhances our preparedness and response to unforeseen events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I sometimes experience information overload with Dataminr, as there are too many notifications that need to be filtered out. Additionally, I find that the customization options could be more intuitive, which would enhance my ability to tailor the platform to my specific needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Dataminr to monitor real-time events and breaking news. It helps improve my awareness and decision-making by monitoring breaking events and risks in real-time.

The interface can feel overwhelming, especially with numerous alerts. I guess there should be a way of ensuring alert filtering, so it's easy to focus on only the most relevant updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Dataminr scans public data like social media and solves the problem of late and fragmented information. It gives me time to think and act, not rush.

While Dataminr is powerful for real-time alerts, it can sometimes produce too many notifications, including irrelevant events, which may overwhelm users and require careful filtering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Dataminr has really helped us see incidents around the world and help increase the speed in which we measure direct or indirect impact.

The new Real-Time Intelligence that is still in Beta has been super helpful in consolidating information right at the top of an event, which saves a lot of time in collecting data and combining it for distribution. Its able to add information as new event updates come in and has been incredibly helpful - particularily during the recent bridge collapse in Baltimore.

Event history to help inform and build patterns for planning.

Developing feeds to support our business partners is really easy and makes for a helpful way to develop bespoke monitoring.

The team that supports our account has been great at helping us customize alerts to cut down on noise and build advanced alerts for custom monitoring.

The App is great as well as it provides me with almost all of the info I need near me as well as what could impact the business (through our feeds). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up Dataminr requires some time committment from the end user to really customize it. If you don't dedicate this time, you will not have a great experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Invaluable and timely information on critical incidents at home and around the World.

We've been using Dataminr since the summer of 2020 and it has become an integral part of our daily routine.

Dataminr Pulse is an excellent tool that has evolved and become more robust over the last couple of years.

The recent addition of AI integration to Pulse provides a quick narrative of most events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of real time flight tracking for our assests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the map features and the possibility to see alerts in real-time when they pop on the map, as well as the possibility to receive alerts via email/pop-up for those times when you can't keep looking at the screen on Dataminr.

I also really like the support that our point of contact provides, he responds really quickly and is always helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is well built and user-friendly. The only thing I would like to see implemented is an "expiration date" to custom lists. Additionally, sometimes a lot of noise comes through, especially in countries like Iraq/Turkey where a lot of things happen at once, so perhaps it would be useful to have more levels and not only ALERT, URGENT, FLASH.
