## Reviews

### "Netbase reigns supreme" — 5.0/5

> **Christin** | *12 February 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I loved the capabilities to easily navigate the platform without being a boolean pro. Their Audience 3D tool is also amazing for segmentation (but a bit costly)
> 
> **Cons**: Only 2 years worth of data is available which can be a bummer if you are doing a deep dive.

### "Great tool, good price." — 3.0/5

> **jobin** | *8 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There's is so much you can do and so much you can analze. You can soft by perople, where they live and who they are. Being able to break things down this way is a huge plus.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimges the tool counts things as negative when it should be the oppositve. I think this occurs because it alalyzes the sentences and not the paragraphs.   A lot of time, the topics can be this dificult. Customer service has been really helpful but it's hard to get a hold of them.

### "Powerful tool in the right hands (requires training on boolean querys)" — 4.0/5

> **Marshall** | *12 July 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: By far the BEST thing about NetBase is how many mentions they get and how much they provide. After any user learns how to use proper boolean, they can get an ENORMOUS amount of data at their fingertips. So much, that I feel like it's one of the best tools for not just social listening, but also reporting – as their sample sizes are much larger than their competitors. Another reason why this is so important, is because while with other platforms, I might still need to do some manual searching via things like Twitter Advanced Search, with NetBase you never actually have to leave the platform.
> 
> **Cons**: NetBase is the most powerful in terms of total number of data points pulled and gives more than just a small sample/snapshot. However, NetBase's scraper misses a lot of posts from key platforms such as IG and TikTok. In addition, they're fairly bare bones in regards to other features such as emotion (not just sentiment), bucketing themes (without having Quid as an add-on), and they have a limited time range whereas some other platforms allow you to look beyond 10 years within their tool.
> 
> Overall I would HIGHLY recommend NetBase for any company who wants to get a pulse on their social listening. Though it might take a bit to learn it, if you have a competent team and time to look thru the posts, it's one of if not the best option.

### "NetBase is a very powerful platform" — 5.0/5

> **Dana** | *8 April 2016*
> 
> NetBase is well suited for research, new business, and diving into broad topics and finding subtrends.It also does a great job of getting to a deeper level of sentiment and behaviors/attitudes that some other platforms through NLP and the use of themes (with more accuracy). The highly flexible platform ensures that you can cut and filter your data in just about any way imaginable, and it's done very quickly. For research projects where historical data is important, NetBase can go back 2 years without additional fees (competitors often charge a fee for more than 30 days historical). &#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Pros:&#13;&#10;Their NLP is very strong with the ability to distinguish subject in sentences and then apply analysis based on either the subject or sentence. Competitors lack strong NLP and often have lower degrees of accuracy.&#13;&#10;The platform is highly flexible with dozens of ways to filter and cut the data. It is great for an analyst that really wants to deep dive into the data. However, the analysis done automatically by NetBase is also strong enough that less experienced users would still be able to gain insight with ease.&#13;&#10;The customizable dashboards are perfect for client reporting and drastically reduce the amount of time spent preparing recurring reports and decks. These are also very flexible depending on reporting needs.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Cons:&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;I have a lot of experience with writing boolean queries in social listening platforms, and NetBase's option for boolean is not as user friendly. Getting familiar with the platform's more basic query structure when not using boolean also requires a slight learning curve (if you are used to boolean).&#13;&#10;Even for all of it's strengths, it gets pretty pricey for only a handful of users. For an agency that requires multiple seats, this can add up very quickly.&#13;&#10;If having 100% of data is necessary (e.g. for tracking a Twitter hashtag campaign or sweepstakes), you must enable the firehose. Otherwise the decahose is used and then the sample is projected to estimated universe count. Not a problem for some situations, but definitely a problem for others.
