Cheap and basic great if that's all you need

It's basic interface makes it easy to use.

Pros

Cost effective considering my currently limited need for this kind of thing.

Cons

That I will quickly outgrow the lack of accuracy/freshness of the keyword data. It's OK for now but once I hit full deployment it won't suit.

SpyFu is exceptional for the SMB or small agency

Excellent experience, for price and functionality it is a MUST buy

Pros

Organic and Paid data sets, both for own client base and competitor analysis. Trusted data and an exceptional snapshot of the digital landscape.

Cons

Some of the Paid Ads data is a little off. If my own data for clients is off then it leaves open to debate the accuracy of competitor data.

Alternatives Considered

SEO PowerSuite

Reasons for Choosing SpyFu

Price and lack of trust in Semrush data

Switched From

Semrush

Reasons for Switching to SpyFu

I didn't, I have both. SEO Powersuite has more options and depth of software

Essential tool for PPC campaigns

Keyword research and PPC info have been a real breeze as it allows you to spy on your competitors and makes it very easy to come up with initial keywords.

Pros

They've done a great job in making an affordable, effective tool. The amount of features you have access to, even without a premium subscription is mental. One of the best tools you can use, no matter if you're new to PPC campaigns, or if you have years of experience.

Cons

The data on some of the niche markets and low-volume keywords can be very limited. Other than that, there's not much to complain about.

Alternatives Considered

Moz Local, Ahrefs and Semrush

Reasons for Switching to SpyFu

The free account has an exceptional access level.

Response from SpyFu

Thank you for your kind words, Hasan! We love hearing about your experience with the free and paid tool, as well as your work in PPC research.

Good tool but needs a little more

It's a good tool, but for my specific needs I couldn't replace SEMRush

Pros

It is a good tool, it has what you need to do a good research on competencies and search for keywords. and it is much cheaper than most tools.

Cons

The reports in the basic version are quite limited.

Response from SpyFu

Thank you for sharing your review, Fernando! Glad to hear that we have become part of your keyword research toolset.
