Sometimes I'm confused by the % of video playback when it's over 100%. What does that mean? How can a video be viewed over 100% of the time? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Parsely is a good platform to keep track of content related metric. The platform is easy to use and navigate - the metrics are straightforward and the platform is organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The overview which said that yesterday was the best "Monday" on xxx Mondays. It could be great to have the same number of days for every weekday Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate Parsely's at-a-glance breakdown of traffic across days/weeks/months and sources like Google, Facebook, and direct links. It's fast, far more intuitive than a dashboard like Google Analytics, and makes it much easier to deduce when and why an article is performing especially well.

The one area where Parsely is less useful is its historical data: we can only view traffic going back a year, which means it's not great for analyzing our evergreen content over a long period of time. That means that for deeper analysis we still have to turn to Google Analytics, when I'd much prefer to be able to see years worth of history in Parsely instead.

Parse.ly can tell you how many total views as well as break it down by weeks or months. Also like that it provides social breakdown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very addictive. I find myself checking it in my off business hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As I am a real-time reporter, I am constantly checking Parse.ly, which has now switched to posting the top 20 plus stories. If one of my stories isn't on the board at least once a day, I re-evaluate how I should be writing and what I could have done differently. So it's a great tool.

I can get a little obsessive, checking it. LOL. I also would like an email occasionally with a progress report that's easy to go over. I also sometimes only get the entire company's chart when I just need Miami Herald stats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
