Been using these alerts for years, much better than Google alerts. The new Twitter added alerts are useful, I get a daily summary of my most important mentions which is nice. Talkwalker alerts is great for a free service, highly recommend you use it for your brand or business.

Pros:

Daily or instant notifications. Keep track of your brand reputation. Much more accurate than Google alerts.

Cons:

Limited and basic functionality no extra filters or alert notification settings for example alert by influence level or analytics etc.

I have been using Talkwalker Alerts for a few months now and it's been a great alternative to Google Alerts, I'm really happy that it now includes alerts from Twitter, which is a real time saver for me. I would definitely recommend it!

Pros:

Integrates Twitter and ability to filter results

Cons:

Look pretty useful. is there an error on your pricing page? Basic plan starts at $8400/year. https://www.talkwalker.com/pricing

@kwdinc so glad you think it's useful! Our tool is complete free - so pricing you're looking at is our paid in-depth listening and analytics tool. Talkwalker Alerts is independant of this tool :)

I'd like to have a Results browsing and filtering experience. Happy to share my thinking here.

Pros:

Surprisingly good results. It is, in fact, better than Google Alerts! The main Alerts Dashboard is useful.

Cons:

Could benefit from a Result Viewing UX which was a bit more TweetDeck like.

Hi Ron, thanks for your feedback! We're on the same page and looking into UX as an area of development

My favorite feature of Google Alerts is the ability to generate an RSS feed. I don't see this feature in Talkwalker.

@stan hi Stan - the RSS feed is very much possible for Talkwalker Alerts - you can check out how to do it here: http://twalertsupport.talkwalker... .

Analytics would be useful

Hey Carolanne ! Thanks a bunch for letting us know. We're actively collecting feedback at this stage, so we'll definitely consider adding analytics in the future.
