## Reviews

### "Use a different product such as Firebase" — 5.0/5

> **Karen Jeraldine** | *9 July 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Avoid going to MobileFirst as IBM also seems to be moving away from this platform and instead pushing to use cloud services. MobileFirst web integration doesn't work.
> 
> **Cons**: Version 8 isn't backwards compatible at all
IBM seems to be moving away from MobileFirst to cloud services with more focus on native app development rather than hybrid apps.
> 
> I recommend it to all my colleagues and clients

### "Very useful tool for marketing research. Helped to dig up some insights." — 4.0/5

> **Volodymyr** | *2 July 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: Great at giving an insight behind certain word combinations. 
Really good at providing material to base the point of view on.
> 
> **Cons**: Very clumsy, requires a lot of tweaking in order to get off the ground. 
However, after the initial rumblings you get used to it and the whole process gets much more smoother.

### "As a linguist I am interested in how new tech. deal with language analysis." — 2.0/5

> **Siarl/Carles** | *7 March 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: It is very user friendly. No need to be an expert. Clear screen, no strong colours, annoying ads, etc.
> 
> **Cons**: The analysis. Language is a human feature. Unfortunately, a machine cannot determine whether a text is positive or negative, produces joy or sadness... based on some terms that appear in it.

### "this is super cool and will give your clients a bit of a wow factor" — 5.0/5

> **Regina** | *26 April 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: i like how cool the tech is... it is pretty new so it give a wow factor.  I enjoy that there is a free version
> 
> **Cons**: a lot of times you have to scrub your data and teach the tool what is and is not correct.  as with most AI type platforms, it can misinterpret if you do not teach it a bit
