I like a lot of features such as the ability to check website URL for search engine positions for keywords.

The keyword data which gives a big picture view of your current SEO opportunities and competition and you can evaluate where inbound link are sourced and the quality of the site they are coming from. You have the ability to measure and scale traffic sources that are working using Google Analytics data and create notes to help track changes and make decision making.

I like viewing accounts with Android, iPhone, iPad and web-based mobile devices. The intuitive dashboard allows one to view keywords and performance quickly. The software allows users to track competitor's and compare results and create customized analysis using single keywords or groups of keywords.
What would you change about your experience with Positionly?
When I first logged into my account it hung up! Support was helpful in resolving the issue in their back-end. The keyword group feature could be improved. Some of the features go beyond the scope of SEO but are useful nonetheless. There would be a bit of a learning curve if you've never used a similar software before. Although the clean, simple user-interface helps with this.
Overall Feedback

It's quite a cost effective solution considering the powerful tools available. The mobile app works well which is nice. I like Positionly a lot and overall my experience was very positive despite the app crashing the first time I logged in. The features included cover almost everything necessary to help increase SE rankings and attract more traffic. It's priced fairly compared to other monthly services which have similar tools.
