Has anyone used Meltwater? Can you give me some feedback? They have approached our company and since we are jumping into this vast ocean of Social Media, I don’t want us to make rookie mistakes. http://www.meltwater.com
Thanks!

Hi Allana.
I’ve not used Meltwater.
But I have a suggestion: perhaps you should include that in the title of your post; something along the lines of: “Can anyone provide feedback on Meltwater”. It might attract more traction/input from members. Just a thought!

Allana-
I saw your post and had never heard of Meltwater and looked it up and saw that it is a project management program.
I just started using SmartSheet to manage a project I am working on with a client.

Such a good point that I changed the title.
Another suggestion for everyone asking for feedback: is provide some context on the product. There are so many products and services out there that there’s no way for us to know all of them.
Also, a link.
Now, that being said, don’t be pretending you are looking for feedback on a product when you’re really just trying to send traffic to a friend’s website.
(Which wasn’t @dionoallana‘s plan…I’m just saying.)

I carefully checked Meltwater’s website and found that they are based in Europe and Hong Kong. They appear to be a software company that has built several programs that can handle social media and pay-per-click.
IMHO, this is not a good company to jump into social media with. They may know how to program for SM, but not how to engage others.
If you want someone to take you by the hand and show you how to use SM, while doing the bulk of it for you, I recommend using someone who has been around and active in the field.
