"ListenFirst is next level analytics "
4.5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

ListenFrist is able to combine ease of use with incredible depth to create a platform that helps to shape content, analyze results and improve campaigns. All of that functionality combined with the hands on availability of their staff to answer questions and create detailed reports, it's like having extra members on our team.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

Certain functionality and performance on the back end of the platform could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ListenFirst Survey"
3.5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

I really appreciated having all the posts and their respective analytics on one screen for easy browsing access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

We were hoping ListenFirst could be integrated with Sprinklr, as we use that for all of our scheduling/posting. Some features, including campaign/series tagging weren't able to port over to ListenFirst, so we could know how certain campaigns were performing separately. Also, the one-day delay in analytics was often a bit too slow for what we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Client Experience with ListenFirst"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

I've worked with Nicole Yoon for over a year now and she has really become part of the team. She's done a great job with all of our complicated reporting (BBC vs BBCA) and presents weekly to the Marketing, Social, and Research teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

There have been a few errors in how programming is coded in the industry portal - specifically genre/or first run. We often will filter on these specific buckets for a press claim and will manually do our own check. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease of use and Insightful"
5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

I love that you can see clear follower insights for the content as well as the content engagement that the posts drive. The ability to find and identify top followers to use as brand advocates is a great feature as well.

Another feature that is great is the Story Runner and how you can compare engagement and brand measurement pre and post your campaign flight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

There isn't much that I dislike about the product at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"First impressions of ListebFirst"
4/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

As a new user, I think the client support is really great. I also like seeing the different reports the insights group shares so we can get an idea of what the tool is capable of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

The user interface could be more intuitive. Also, small sample sizes make it difficult to cut data in different ways. Its difficult to make sense of all the different metrics and when to use what. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

The week over week audience growth and film content metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

I always want to get more granular which I know is tricky given the platforms used. So less of a dislike and more of something to work on! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dashboard helpful for international digital marketing"
5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

That it's easy to maneuver, especially with our hundreds of pages ingested - but it's simple and easy to find what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

It's obviously harder to use with multiple languages in each page; it'd be great to be able to tag specific pieces of content, even if it's in different languages Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kara Lawson of ListenFirst

Thank you for reviewing ListenFirst! We're so happy to hear of your positive experience with our easy-to-use platform and comprehensive social insights. Also, the ability to tag specific pieces of content in multiple languages is coming very soon!

"Easy to use, all-in-one social analytics/listening platform"
5/5
What do you like best about ListenFirst?

ListenFirst allows us to only use 1 platform for social analytics and listening. Prior to using ListenFirst we used multiple social vendors for different types of social insights. ListenFirst is a much more efficient way to access that same data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ListenFirst?

Some of the data like demographics can't be exported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kara Lawson of ListenFirst

Thanks for reviewing us! We're thrilled that ListenFirst's one, comprehensive solution can satisfy all of your social analytics and listening needs.
