What do you like best about NewsWhip?

NewsWhip is fairly intuitive to use. I mainly use it for looking at our audience comp set to understand what stories are rising for other news organizations and to monitor how our social posts are doing relative. I like how you can quickly determine what storylines are taking off and likely to continue rising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Newswhip Review"
5/5
What do you like best about NewsWhip?

Newswhip is one of the best tools out there today to help a newsroom stay in touch with their audience and what is happening in the ecosystem. Bar none, it is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

Conversion to newsroom can be difficult as we need to basically get them to understand why they need it. I would love for more hard and fast examples to really show them the benefit. I would also like more in-depth data reports for download. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"NewsWhip is crucial in helping me predict trends"
5/5
What do you like best about NewsWhip?

I love the Newswhip alerts that hit my inbox every morning on various topics. It gives me a huge heads up on bubbling trends so I can alert my clients and get ahead of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NewsWhip?

I find the NewsWhip alerts and search functionalities so user friendly, but have a much harder time with the analytics side of things. I'm not sure that this is actually a NewsWhip problem – probably more of a me problem! But I'd love for that side of things to be more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
