Hello!
The dashboards and newsletters have the most value, but I like the Explore searches the best.
There are different uses for each of the dashboards, so think of them as finding the right tool for the job. Depending on the report I need to present, I can use the EMM or Custom dashboards. There are still some at my office who prefer the classic dashboards and considering how long we have used Meltwater, those do offer a good apples to apples comparison for those who are use to seeing the data a certain way.
I use the newsletters each day to help quickly discover what is making news on a variety of key topics we watch.
The alerts are also a valuable tool in a crisis to gauge coverage by news media and reactions on social media.
Go through the Academy foundations courses. Those are key to learning the system, then it’s all about practice. As you become more familiar, go back and take the higher level Academy courses to refine your skills. There’s also always updates so keep your eye out for the release courses and the ever-boarding that is offered. Good luck and don’t be afraid to use the chat feature. The experts at Meltwater have helped me a lot when I’ve been under pressure in a moment and a new search is not working exactly as I hoped.
