We pushed out several new features and many improvements today. A lot of you had some great suggestions, which we really appreciate.
The things we’ve added include:
- Added the ability to set your own website URL separate from the competitor list. The main purpose of this for now is to compare yourself against your competitors in the feature matrix and traffic graphs, but you can of course add comments and clippings as well
- Feature matrix now highlights the features of your competitors that you are missing
- Comments and clippings can now be deleted by the admin, or by the creator, from the appropriate competitor page
- Adding features is slightly more intuitive, with better directions
- You can now view more than five related blog posts about a competitor
- Fixed the recent clippings feed so it no longer returns an error when there are no clippings
We’re listening to all your feedback, and have many more improvements coming soon. Please keep your suggestions coming!
Competitious is a new service that lets individuals and teams easily track their competition. Our initial launch focuses on giving you the ability to organize your competitive research in a secure manner so that you and your team can collaboratively stay up to date on your competition. At this point Competitious provides you with the following features:
- Maintain a list of your competition with easy access to information on a particular competitor
- Get at-a-glance web traffic information for each competitor, or compare the traffic of your competitors on a single graph
- View a competitor’s latest blog posts, or blog news about them
- Clip articles or information on the Web about your competition
- Add comments about each competitor
- Build a feature matrix to compare the competition’s feature offerings against your own
- Create multiple projects, and invite other team members to collaborate with you on a project
We have a lot of improvement and feature releases on the way. Future releases will begin to help you filter and analyze more sources of information, in addition to organizing new intelligence about your competition. We’ll be discussing new feature releases and ideas here, and we love to hear your feedback. Stay tuned!
