What do you dislike about SpyFu?

The least helpful thing about spyfu is inaccurate data sometimes SpyFu's data is inaccurate.

Lack of search engine distinction sometimes SpyFu doesn't differentiate between traffic from Google and other search engines. No keyword trend data spyfu keyword research tool doesn't include trend data, which can help identify seasonal and trendy keywords. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpyFu?

They cahrged us 99$ without getting our permmision for 3 months. Never the less, they didnt even sent invoices for the charge and We decovered it from our credit card charges.

When trying to contact them I accountered with chatbot that doesnt understand what I want and there is no human to speak with. Still waiting for them to reply my email and I will update as soon as we suttle this matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I will pass that along to our team to see if we can find a way to make it more helpful when our support staff is unavailable.

"SpyFu is Easy to Use and Extremely Helpful Customer Service"
5/5
What do you like best about SpyFu?

SpyFu allowed me to check them for a "free" trial. Actually, this meant that I was able to pay for the tool and once I'd explored the features, I was able to cancel my subscription instantly by using their chat feature to cancel and ask for a refund. They gave me no hassle and I was instantly canceled and refunded. Never seen this before, no fuss, no questions, just kindess. I love their tool for spying on competitors Google Ads, but the competitor I was searching wasn't running ads, so I needed to allocate my clients spend elsewhere. That said, I trust SpyFu because they're here to help, and it's refreshingly easy to use with no strings attached. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpyFu?

I was also looking to see if SpyFu allowed me to spy on Facebook Ads or other social media platform ads. I'd love to see SpyFu expand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sidra Condron of SpyFu

Thank you for your 5-star review! Even though the subscription was not right for you (with your competitors not running ads), we are happy that you tested the features and left with a great experience. We're happy to help when you are ready to come back.

4.5/5

"Amazing value and super useful"
5/5
What do you like best about SpyFu?

My team uses the SpyFu keyword research tool, domain analysis tool, etc pretty extensively.

Anytime we want to get topic ideas for content, we use Spyfu.

Anytime we want to know the type of language to use in our content, we use Spyfu.

We also use their app for a lot of strategic planning and decision making (e.g. finding opportunities to sell our prospects, etc).

Most importantly, the app is VERY affordable, compared to competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpyFu?

The only downside is some of the domain analysis doesn't seem fully accurate. But it does seem directionally accurate. This isn't a big deal for us, and from what I've seen, I'm not aware of any competitors that are able to do the same thing with 100% precision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sidra Condron of SpyFu

Thank you for your fantastic review! It's exciting for us to see the different ways you're using the tool. Thank you for making us a big part of your marketing arsenal!

"SpyFu makes analyzing SEO and Digital Advertising competition easy"
5/5
What do you like best about SpyFu?

Ease of use is what makes SpyFu well worth the subscription. The Ad History and PPC features are particularly valuable; not only can you see what competitors have done, you can understand how they have iterated and improved their ads over time.

The PDF generator and the data export features make it easy for digital marketers in large companies to pull data out for the purpose of sharing with their colleagues in sales, customer service, finance, and of course the executive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpyFu?

SpyFu update their dataset monthly. This is a challenge for new advertisers and new websites in high-competition niches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sidra Condron of SpyFu

Thank you for your deep review of SpyFu! This might be the first time our PDF generator has gotten a shout out, and we love to see it. So glad it's been a valuable part of your toolset.
