This services gives you plenty of data without drowning you in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It feels like Google My Business analysis is either hidden or very difficult to figure out how to get into. I would love to see something that locks down and strictly focuses on local GMB analysis, including heat maps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The dashboard enables one to easily and seemlessly examine paid data performance (keywords, audience, etc) across platforms and vitally competitors, which drives paid campaigns via channel, bidding strategy, content and align SEO efforts. The implementation is simple and easily integrated into daily management for any paid user. Their customer support is outstanding and replies promply. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adding a feature for AI (Riveria) to send alerts for bidding events and/or performance spikes would be a great value-add. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Perhaps the best testimony is that my agency has used SpyFu since 2017. Every year our team reviews similar applications and every year they demand to keep using SpyFu. My agency uses SpyFu for both SEO and Paid Search and especially for research and spying on competitors Ads. We also send reports to our clients, which they greatly appreciate and helps with retainage. All of the tools are useful. Plus, they introduce new tools all the time. Strongly suggest you try it for a year. Easy to use and the best price out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be honest my team and I like everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I joined SpyFu in March of 2022. The thing that attracted me to your service, and has kept me a customer for the past 3 years, is the usefulness of your data. I run multiple businesses in different niches; however, I can use SpyFu to watch my domain rankings, spy on the competition, perform keyword research, reverse engineer competitors' ads, and so much more. Thanks for providing and maintaining such an awesome resource. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes data is missing. For example, I know a competitor s running ads, but the results aren't in SpyFu. My guess is the ad is too new, and SpyFu hasn't found it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the timeline feature for competitor ads, which lets me see how other advertisers are iterating over time. It's super easy to visualize search volumes and bid prices for keywords, making it a breeze to understand the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not all keywords have data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bang for buck, SpyFu is a great option. While SpyFu does not give you nearly as much information and insight as Ahrefs and SEMrush (which are pricey). SpyFu is a great option for lower budgets. SpyFu is very user friendly and has a great dashboard display. It is great at giving you organic keywords that you can easily rank for and a great foundation for paid keywords. Another one of my favorite features of SpyFu is it makes it easy to compare yourself to competitors and learn from them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I wish SpyFu did better is their presentation of keyword information upfront. For example, both Ahrefs and SEMrush give you search volume, keyword difficulty, traffic potential, clicks, CPC, and parent topics. Upfront, SpyFu gives you search volume. It takes a few more clicks to get more data about the keyword. I find slightly frustrating. When doing a high level of keyword research, those clicks can take a lot of time. All in all, SpyFu is a great tool in my opinion if you're looking for a cheaper SEO tool. You’ll get your money’s worth from SpyFu. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SpyFu provides insight into the keywords, trending search terms, and associated landing pages from top-ranking competitors in every category. I use this for SEO, but also for new client research, site development, and for development of my own business. It's a fantastic bargain compared to other available tools and an equalizer for smaller agencies. I also like that it provides leading KPI's for website performance long before GA-4 picks them up because it tracks search results to 100 places. This allows me to show results earlier than server-side analytics can track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing I really dislike about it, except that some of my clients operate in such niche categories that even SpyFu can't track them. Complaints I've read about inaccuracy have not been evident to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can see the ad spend of major companies on specific things. I like the price. I like that I can see what PPC will be for certain words that I may be interested in. I also like that I can see a lot of my competition's information. I also like that I can see questions that people have asked about specific topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As of 10-30-2024 I have not found any dislikes yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spyfu is one of the most complete SEO softwares in the game today. What really sets them apart is ease of use and pricing. We used other products like SEMrush for a lot of the functionality that Spyfu provides. The competitor tools may simply be the best in the game. The ability to track your competition easily and quickly can give any business or agency a huge leg up. The program is easy to use on a daily if not hourly basis. Customer support is quick to answer but also provide solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reporting isn't great for what current clients prefer so most of it can't be used. The issues are mostly aesthetic. The other issue is the accuracy of SEO clicks. It is almost always about 1/10th of the actual results when compared to Google Analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best things about SpyFu are the ability to send automated reports to our team, and our clients, the number of features, the ability to implement strategies and integrate it into our daily methods, and the high level of customer support. We use SpyFu almost daily for both our clients and us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike is not so much a dislike as a challenge; The ease of use is a little difficult for a novice, but between working with the system and customer support, anybody can do well with it in a short amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
