Conductor fixed our chaotic content workflow
Reviewed on Nov 23, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Conductor has simplified our content planning and ideation process. The capability of swiftly researching on latest topics and key word opportunities within the platform has saved us a lot of time than having to use several tools. We could see competitor content performance at a glance and it assists us in identifying the gaps that we can fill.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting interface is somehow outdated and can be more user-friendly to extract particular campaign metrics. My other desired feature would do with having stronger alternatives to linking with our internal content management system without having to code it myself. The user permission settings are too strict in some cases, and our fluid editorial staff cannot work there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were having difficulties with our ability to generate content, which appealed to our target audience and which would rank well organically. After introducing Conductor we have a far better idea of what our customers are searching and creating more strategic content, with a significant improvement in search visibility.
