## Reviews

### "One-stop Social Media Analytics" — 4.0/5

> **Mick** | *11 March 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Want to identify which social channels/posts drive the most traffic or engagement?&#10;Easy to get the required data with no excessive digging into the profiles one by one. &#10;Set targets, measure and evaluate.
> 
> **Cons**: The customizing options for the reports could be more elaborate.

### "Digital marketeers fundamental tool for campaign planing and optimal delivery and ad balancing." — 5.0/5

> **Dermot** | *22 November 2021* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We've been a long term fan of Beacon, having used the platform for a few years now, we have seen it evolve into what it is today; a powerful click fraud protection platform. What makes Beacon stand out is it's multichannel click fraud detection feature which shows bot and human activity, click fraud protection for Facebook, and the metrics it gives us into visitor engagement and cost per engaged visitor. Without this insight into what is really happening on our paid media, we'd be making decisions based on wrong data.  The team our outstanding to work with.
> 
> **Cons**: At the higher end of product pricing, but as in life you get what you pay for. Apart from that there aren't really any.
> 
> A very professional company with a great product which transfers the power to the consumer / user of digital marketing, providing the up to the minute data on digital ad spend and productivity.

### "Easy to use, yet requires connection" — 3.0/5

> **Ishita** | *26 April 2020* | Research | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I was very enthisiased by the interactive presence of features on the software. The categories that were shown were very interactive and informative. No one needs to approach other search engines such as Google etc. All the information with good amount of quality content is present on the same site. the options available are very easy to use due to the presence of filter option that categorises preferences as per our needs. The number or quantity of entries is good.
> 
> **Cons**: The software requires good amount of modification. Not only does the content need to be good, but also the display of the information. This includes faster search options, proper alignment of texts, proper spacing between the texts with the presence of more visuals. Exactly like the computer chips, the software also needs to optimise its functioning with least space consumption on the device. In order to enhance the legitimacy of the information,more reviews need to be included.

> 
> **Pros**: Through our valued partnership with Beacon, we are able to offer our clients multi-channel ad fraud protection to improve paid campaign performance. The beauty of Beacon is that it's automated and works in the background to block invalid traffic without any input from our team. We simply let it do its magic\!
