"Great for Competition Insights, Needs Faster Data Updates"
4/5
What do you like best about Similarweb?

I use Similarweb for AEO analysis, and one of the top features I like about the platform is its ability to show the exact landing pages where LLM traffic is coming in. This feature helps in further optimizing landing pages, gaining more visibility, and identifying pages that aren't getting any LLM traffic so they can be optimized accordingly. Setting up Similarweb was very easy as well, and our account manager provided great help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

One thing is that, the TAT for previous months data, and weekly or daily data for the LLM traffic, since this is a fast paced domain which is growing at a large scale, tracking the traffic on a daily basis for the current month would be really helpful, also the monthly LLM traffic data arrives 6-7 days later the next month, so basically the TAT for these traffic data can be improved.

"Unlocks Competitor Insights, Boosts Strategy"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Similarweb?

I love using Similarweb for Website Analysis, as I regularly share data with my clients to provide insights into how their competition is performing. Audience overlap is another feature I really appreciate because it helps me understand how our audience compares with competitors, and it even aids in identifying new competitors I hadn't considered before. Additionally, AI brand visibility is a key topic, and having this information enables valuable discussions with clients, especially in helping them improve their AI ranking geographically.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

Sometimes the data seems off as it's only an extrapolation of data, doesn't always seem accurate. We work with a lot of multi-market clients, so the data is limited to certain countries sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Concise, Visual Insights That Make Competitor Comparisons Easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Similarweb?

Concise, straightforward views. There’s a good variety of cuts, and the visuals are nice—graphs are especially helpful. It’s easy to compare different competitors with one click, and the more in-depth cuts, like paid traffic, are helpful as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

At times, it can be confusing to navigate the platform or locate my saved views. I also find it difficult to compile different analyses and keep them separate, rather than having to combine different metrics together on a single page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unlocks Data Accessibility with Some Accuracy Gaps"
4/5
What do you like best about Similarweb?

I use Similarweb mostly for market and competitor analysis. What I like most about Similarweb is enabling the accessibility and shareability of data by facilitating access to otherwise inaccessible datasets. Evaluating any brand's success and market presence is seamless with Similarweb. By simply entering a website's URL, I can gain a comprehensive understanding of its entire digital footprint in just 5 minutes. The initial setup is very easy; just the login information is enough to start using Similarweb. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

The data correctness could be better. When I compare the real data with the data on Similarweb, sometimes I see a huge difference. Similarweb has data limitations when it comes to smaller traffic volumes. Because some display channels fall below their reporting threshold, we're seeing notable discrepancies in traffic, engagement, and search data (SEO/PPC) compared to our internal metrics.

"Clear, User-Friendly Dashboard for Fast Competitive Insights"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Similarweb?

he dashboard is remarkably clear and user-friendly, making it effortless to extract meaningful insights about competitor performance and market activity. SimilarWeb's intuitive design ensures that even complex competitive intelligence data is presented in an accessible way, allowing for quick analysis and actionable insights without unnecessary complexity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

The main drawback is data accuracy - the metrics don't always align with reality. I tested this by comparing SimilarWeb's estimates for my own website against our actual analytics, and found significant differences. This makes me question the reliability of competitor data and means I can't solely rely on the platform for important strategic decisions without additional validation.
