Competitious News

Today we launched the public version of RivalMap, our new product that evolved from the valuable feedback we received over the last year from Competitious users and our enterprise pilot customers. Competitous is a great way to quickly list your competition and start finding news and traffic stats about them, but RivalMap is focussed on what happens next. It provides a much more powerful way of organizing and collaborating around the information you record. Some of the new features that you will find include:

-Account subdomains with SSL for paid accounts
-Full account and user management with individual user permissions
-Manage competitors and their products, sort and filter in many ways (including a collective threat rating)
-Competitor profiles with a “mini-wiki” (soon to be a full-fledged wiki with multiple pages per competitor/product)
-Social bookmarking with tagging
-Notes system with tagging and file attachments
-The tag system allows free-form labels, and also associated content with competitor, products, or customer segments
-Full-text search of content and text-based file attachments
-Track and address concerns
-Comment system for discussing almost everything on the system
-Smart and attractive email digests that show threaded activity sorted and grouped by the threat of associated competitors
-Email in notes and attachments, email alerts when you subscribe or comment on any content
-Organize information on customer segments and actual customers
-Fully robust comparison matrix tool - multiple comparison, text in cells, reorder completely, export to Excel, etc.
-Users can save and promote content by starring it - almost like a Digg system internally

In essence, it’s an entirely new system with far more capability. All of our current customers use it daily to share news, files and notes on competitors and their industry. They also really love the new comparison matrix tool that allows them to share comparisons on things like vertical market integration or interest rates of competing financial institutions.

We’re focusing on building specialized collaborative features in the first revision so there is not any traffic information or news feeds, but we’ll be introducing features in the future like a collaborative RSS news dashboard, and possibly integration with third-party information services.
Please give our new service a try there are free and paid plans available!
