I was too harsh in my previous review, giving EezyCollab only one star when I saw how hard Yiki and her team tried to make a great tool and listen to customer feedback. I deleted the review and now am updating it to 4 stars, and here is why:
It has better limits than Btrendy, which is a credit hog.
Yes, the basic functionality needs to be improved. It does an excellent job of finding relevant influencers based on keywords, but to contact them through the software, you must use their email domains.
I forgot that you still have very relevant targets. While the email issue is being fixed, you can still message the influencers through social platforms using your own brand-named accounts.
When I created an analytics report, I thought it wasn't working and there was an error, but it went through once I refreshed it. These are basic analytics reports showing followers and engagement rates on the selected influencer.
However, Btrendy automatically shows followers and engagement rates on each profile right after the keyword search, so you do not have to select each profile manually.
However, it has a deeper dive option into the analytics but at a very high credit cost: at least 10 credits per influencer to see even more statistics. Also, right now, EezyCollab only allows analytics on Instagram and not TikTok, and Youtube like Btrendy does.
EezyCollab support is fast, considers feedback, and solves issues quickly.
I picked the tool up because it had higher limits than Btrendy.
Btrendy wins with a slight edge because the functionality is currently better. You have more filters, and it shows a basic analytics snapshot of all influencers when you run a search to show the follower count and engagement rate.
You can reach out to influencers using your own email domains and Gmails, which EezyCollab can't currently do.
Where EezyCollab has a Btrendy beat is that you can find LinkedIn and Twitter influencers. Professionals use these networks, so it is essential to see contacts here, especially if you do any meaningful advertising on these platforms, as you know how expensive they are.
I would say if you have the money, get both, but if you don't, here is my recommendation for which one to pick based on your needs:
If you are okay with having more relevant targets across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Twitter while messaging the contacts directly from your social profiles, then EezyCollab is for you.
If you want to email people directly from the software with your branded domain names and are okay with using only TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube with better analytics, Btrendy is for you.
I gave both EezyCollab and Btrendy 4 stars.
