"I wouldn't be able to do my work without that"
What do you like best about Similarweb?

Traffic sources, volume, engagement metrics, newly added segment/conversion analyses. Generally, this is the best market intelligence tool available. Works perfectly well for due diligence purposes, but I use it every day for pretty much all market research analyses. What I also love about this product is a team behind it. One of the best communication services, great feature updates, amazing content produced. Most requests and queries solved within few hours. Creme de la creme of SaaS companies.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

I think keywords analyses might be more robust, e.g., there are no click-through-rates or spend estimations. I know this is not a SEO/SEM tool, but if you combine it with traffic, conversion data you could very easily run impact calculations. I think this is the ultimate direction. Sometimes traffic data tends to be a little off the actuals, even by an order of 2-3x, so if you're working a lot with clients who know their data well, it might be challenged. I also suggest to push for iOS apps analyses, as currently there is only Android. Your competitor Apptopia has it, so probably it's good to copycat and use within SW scale. Also, Google Docs API can be even more robust, e.g., to allow for more custom downloads for non-code people.

What problems is Similarweb solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Market analysis 2. Due dilligence 3. Offering 4. Pricing page analyses 5. Market benchmarking

"I recommend SimilarWeb not only for marketing, but also for fighting digital piracy"

The simplicity of the user's interface and support.

It can not (as I understand) show the traffic based on website's IP address.

We are fighting digital piracy, and using SimilarWeb to monitor mentioned websites' traffic before and after DNS blocking. We have realized that traffic numbers are quite accurate.

"Lead Generation Specialist"
What do you like best about Similarweb?

Similar Web Pro is constantly developing and adding new functionalities, that significantly improve the quality of my everyday work.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

There's nothing major that I'd point out. Even if you don't like how something works, you can always get in touch with your account admin. They always value your feedback and will help you solve the issue.

What problems is Similarweb solving and how is that benefiting you?

Nowadays I use it mostly to review particular websites. On the basis of the info (like traffic, or geo) given me by Similar Web, I decide if the business is worth working with. I also use it, on a smaller scale, to generate new leads.

There isn't much I dislike about SimilarWeb, but I do wish our agency could be able to utilize the keyword search functionalities that do not come with our selected package.

"Best Website Traffic Statistics and Analytics Company"
What do you like best about Similarweb?

Being able to benchmark our website against the competitors is invaluable. We can check our competitors' traffic data month by month. How much traffic do they get from which channel. We can see which keywords they are receiving traffic from. We get very useful insights about our competitors' strategies and reveal new opportunities for both our SEO and SEM investments.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

App analysis section is the only part where we find lacking. Most of the time there are not enough data to get useful insights, especially for Apple App Store.

What problems is Similarweb solving and how is that benefiting you?

We compare our website traffics with our competitors. If their traffic is growing faster thas us then we realize that they are doing something better than us so we are checking what they do to grow their traffic through Similarweb's various website analysis capabilities and change our SEO or SEM strategies accordingly.

"Competitor and prospect research tooling"
What do you like best about Similarweb?

The chrome extension is fantastic. It's made for speed and the data is accurate enough to provide insight. The visual breakdowns are very, very easy to digest quickly -- which is important for me while prospecting. Customer engagement data and tracking traffic is itself so easy to work through on the dashboard.

What do you dislike about Similarweb?

Nothing really so far. The PPC spend figures in the extension would be nice. The dashboard is not as quickly navigable as some competitors.

What problems is Similarweb solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quick prospecting, monitoring customer engagement on client and prospect websites, and having more knowledge makes it useful.
