"Real-Time Alerts that Make a Difference"
What do you like best about NewsWhip?

I really like how NewsWhip provides a summary of highlights that streamlines monitoring. I also appreciate the different forms of AI-driven alerts, which are very useful for receiving real-time notifications. The summary allows me to quickly see in a minute what's happening on my dashboard, helping me refine the search or review more thoroughly what interests me most without having to waste time going through everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

I have used it more for the media part and it works very well. If it also had the social media part integrated, it would be even better to have everything in one. Not only to see the buzz of topics in media on social networks, but to know what is generated on social networks without being linked to media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Trend Monitoring and Competitive Analysis"
What do you like best about NewsWhip?

I've worked in social media and analytics for 10 years and NewsWhip has been the best tool I've used for trend monitoring, competitor analysis, and historical lookbacks.

We use it every day in my newsroom to monitor top stories, get ideas for formats we can try for social media content, anticipate future trends based on last year's top social posts, and many other use cases. We also make good use of the alerts as well as report builders to bring the insights off the tool and into other tools our wider team uses regularly like Slack and email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

Currently there is only the ability to sort by Most Viewed videos for TIkTok and YouTube. It would be great if this sorting was available for other platforms too like Facebook, Instagram, X, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about NewsWhip?

I like that NewsWhip has got a nice interface, which makes me more likely to use the website. It's always quick to load and quick to update, and I can trust it to find what I need. This is really important for me as a journalist because I need to use reliable sources. Plus, having lots of sources in one place reduces the time I need to spend on manual searching, which is super helpful. Setting it up was also very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

I would like more information on how I can make my searches as useful as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My team and I have been utilizing NewsWhip for quite some time now, and it has proven to be a great tool for staying ahead in the fast-paced world of news and social media. This platform offers a robust and intuitive interface, allowing us to track and analyze real-time news trends efficiently

One of the standout features of NewsWhip is its powerful analytics tools, providing in-depth insights into social engagement, trending topics, and the overall impact of news stories. The ability to monitor competitors and industry influencers gives us a strategic edge in crafting timely and engaging content

The tool's user-friendly design makes navigation a breeze, and the customizable dashboards cater to our specific needs. NewsWhip's alert system is particularly noteworthy, ensuring I am promptly notified of emerging trends or potential crises

While the tool offers a comprehensive suite of features, its learning curve is relatively gentle. Our CSM is responsive and helpful, making the overall user experience positive. NewsWhip has become an important technology tool in our monitoring toolkit and it is continuously innovating by including new features and new platforms. Highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable, real-time news analysis solution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Positive Review of Newswhip"
What do you like best about NewsWhip?

Newswhip stands out as a beacon of efficiency and reliability. Their platform offers comprehensive monitoring across news and social media channels, ensuring that no vital piece of information escapes notice. The intuitive interface and versatile features make it an invaluable tool for businesses. Their customer service, however, truly sets them apart. Prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable, they address queries with the sort of attention and clarity that is all too rare in this industry. Highly recommended for anyone needing a finger on the pulse of the information age and looking to better improve an understanding of how one's business is being positioned online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

Overwhelming Amount of Data: A service that delivers a vast amount of news updates can be seen as bombarding and overwhelming. However, this can also be perceived as thoroughness, ensuring that users don't miss any potentially relevant news piece. That said, it would be nice to know which taxonmy is triggering certain media to be displayed within a dashboard. This is a feature Newswhip is considering in their product roadmap.
