I used CrimsonHexagon to conduct research for a variety of clients. The agency support was readily available and helpful when I needed advice for a new product.

“Former Market Leader Has Fallen Behind”

Jan 9, 2019
Product roadmap has stagnated, customer support is poor. I was once a strong advocate for the company and have seen a steady decline in services with no improvements in the core product.

Crimson Hexagon Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

I liked the flexibility of topics you could search for and the filtering available if you needed something very specific.

Like

The depth of data available is extremely comprehensive, and they still have the largest library of historical data of any social analytics vendor.

Like

Intuitive

Dislike

Sometimes when setting up a dashboard there would be slow loading times and the occasional error. But if you save your boolean query before submitting you can easily paste it again if there's an issue.

Dislike

The product has never enabled scalable analysis of the data, it's extremely manual and time consuming.

Dislike

Limited. No management options.

    Great Social Media Landscape Analysis Tool - Weak on Influencer Insights

    4.0
    Apr 23, 2019
    The listening worked well but not the assessment of authors/influencers. I'd like to see a ranking of influencers based on engagement metrics not just followers and number of mentions for a topic.

    Every product that I have used and worked on works very well. Customer support could be a little better but otherwise exceptional. Machines are top notch. Little product issues. Sales people are knowledgeable in the product line they sell. Customer promise dates could be a little more on time. Engineering within the company needs to spend a little time in the field with the service engineers to see what we go through on a daily basis so they can get the stuff corrected and fixed that we deal with.
