Rank Tracking:
Rankactive is generally attractive software - but what makes it a particularly sensible choice is the very low cost for Ranktracking. Many vendors provide daily queries for a variety of popular search engines and do simulate search from most countries / cities in the world. The number of included keywords often at first glance doesn't look bad either - but it's worth checking the details:
The standard billing model in the SEO-software industry does not look at the count of individual keyword but rather counts the number of search queries performed per keyword. If you track the performance of a particular search-term in 5 countries or in 5 different search engines, 5 credits will be required for this one search term alone. The comfortable looking quota of 1000 keywords may in reality shrink down to meager 200 search terms quickly.
RankActive works differently: There is no credit system - for $ 69.95 (on monthly billing you can really check 2500 keywords daily, with five different search engine configurations. Hence one gets hugely more data for the money, than with all comparable products we have tried.
Cheaper one can only check large amounts of keywords with custom tools and a lot of proxies - not counting the setup effort. Checking daily rankings with local machines also came at the expense that computers / Internet bandwidth are occupied for likely hours. RankActive goes through search queries in six-digits order within minutes and makes the result conveniently available inside the browser – local hardware remains perfectly idle.
Interface + usability
A big plus point of RankActive is the tidy interface with great-looking graphs and table functionalities, unique in the industry. Some good SEO tools allow users to show and hide and table columns. RankActive goes even one step further by letting users re-order tables with drag and drop. It would be nice if typical spreadsheet programs such as Excel or Google Sheets made this so easy. Likewise unique is the facility to display tables tidily grouped by the values in an individual column. Also the interface for data filtering has been solved very well - constantly needed filter functions are reached right from the table header and without modal dialog boxes.
The user interface, programmed in Google's Angular is fully responsive and makes it possible to use all program functions on Desktop machines and Smartphose alike – that still is far from being ubiquitous in 2019.
Onpage analysis:
RankActive comes with a tidy on-page workspace and and already with its "Optimal" tarif offers 15,000 crawling depth - per project. If you use the contract to the fullest you may crawl up to 375,000 pages for as often as you like. Onepage tools provided are perfectly adequate for all common analyzes.
Keyword Research:
RankActive has a high performance keyword research workspace and apparently runs a large own index. Within seconds you can read out the complete ranking of competitors and either save as tables or add to the ranking. Also interesting is a sandbox feature that allows you to store keyword candidates within the program without continuously tracking them. It would make sense however, to save these keywords with all relevant KPIs in that sandbox.
Reporting / Teamwork
We do in-house SEO and therefore have no need for customer-reports. However, this workspace is remarkably complete and versatile and certainly worth a mention. At an extremely low price point SEO agencies may generate reports with their own branding. For daily work with collected data, all tables may get quickly exported standard spreadsheet formats. Also unique in this price range is the generous team-support - already the package for $ 69.95/month lets you add 25 team members and offers a rich set of tools to manage user rights.
RankActive runs as a Web-Service and not as a Desktop software. While this has the advantage that all the heavy lifting doesn't take place on local machines and that data is available on all operating systems and device types it also suffers from typical disadvantages of services which supply a lot of data via the web: RankActive may be slow at times – and while there's Loader gifs to indicate that the program is still fetching data is not always evident when data delivery has completed. Those who are familiar with their projects can figure out quickly that a certain number is out of expected range and needs updating, but for new or occasional users such may cause a problem. A more rigid system to distinguish old data from data newly served due to custom filtering surely made sense.
Also there's occasional and pretty obscure bugs with data filtering – but I've seen such happening in any comparable tool we used before. Support is very responsive and tries to sort things out, program updates do appear frequently.
While RankActive offers a wide array of valuable tools, one will need other tools, such as Google's Search Console or the free Console Rocket by Linkdex to check Click Impressions, CTR and Clicks. Also there's no more a built in backlink-workspace– RankActive actually had a very nice implementation, which was able to store many backlink-candidates along with quality indicators and contact data. That workspace however worked with third party data and unfortunately got removed, quite recently. There were rumors that the RankActive guys build their own index – so there's room for hope that they'll re-introduce it one day. For the time being one will have to use alternative products for Link-Tracking / building.
As an Inhouse team, monitoring the Online success for an E-Commerce business we need to track large amounts of keyword data. RankActive does not only offer great functionality, it also turned out as the most affordable tool we could find.
Best and and fastest rank tracker.
The range of available tools is simply great. And they are very, very generous of the website limitation. Most other tools I have seen let you work on 5 websites at a time, some allow 10 websites. But RankActive, they go beyond anything and lets you 25 simultaneous websites in the dashboard with 2500 keywords total! The number of websites and keyword limit alone can make it a valid purchase.
The subscription I am using is mostly flawless. There are a few cases where the SERP values/ranks might not be spot on, since Google always provides dynamic results and is a little finicky. But what I dont really like is my subscription only allows for rank check when I log in. So other subscriptions get daily updates, where as my subscription has a "Checking frequency: On login" policy. On the other hand, I got this dirt cheap as a lifetime deal and it costs me way, way less than a monthly subscription.
If you want to focus on the marketing and leave the SEO day to day on autopilot, you should give it a try. You can make the necessary changes and see the results in one place instead of hunting for the results from different services.
The biggest problem it solves is, I dont have to use several different tools for my SEO work. I can use my RankActive dashboard to get a total update anytime.
What I liked the best about Rankactive is the variety of tools I can use to help me evaluate an existing or newly launched website. It has Rank Tracker, Analytics, Competitor tracking, Site Auditor, TOP Analyzer, Keyword Finder, and an automated Reports system that notified you of your website statistics. It is a very solid tool in helping you understand your website.
The least liked feature of Rankactive would be the the interface. At first glance, there are so many tools to use, that it is simply quite overwhelming. for a 1st time SEO user.
Businesses would like to see their company go Full DIgital, and one of the most least explored areas is SEO (Search Engine Optimization. as it was almost always too expensive for them and not necessary, but the truth is they don't fully understand how it works and Rankactive does a good job of relaying information to the audience.
The variety of tools available is totally good. And they are quite, quite good with the restriction of the website. Most of the other tools I have observed let you operate on 4 websites at the same time, some allow 9 websites. But RankActive, they look beyond any aspect and allow 24 websites at a time on the board with 2400 keywords in total. The website digit and keyword limit can only transform it into a valid purchase.
The subscription I am using is almost perfect. There are some aspects in which SERP values / levels can be accurate, since Google always generates fun effects and is a bit problematic. But what I honestly don't like is that my subscription only leaves the level check when I log in. So, other obligations receive continuous updates, since my subscription has a “check frequency: at the beginning of the session” ability. On the other hand, I got a very cheap offer for life and it is worth much less than a periodic subscription.
If you want to focus on marketing and allow SEO day by day in automatic mode, you should try it. You can make the required changes and observe the effects in one place instead of investigating the effects of different services.
The biggest problem that it solves is that I don't have to use so many different tools for my SEO job. I can use my RankActive control panel to achieve a total update at any time.

The rank tracker, site auditor, brand monitor, link manager & web analytics. We use it a lot to check the rankings of our keywords to be on track with our competitors.
Reports can be bit better. White label reports & overall analytical reports can be improved.
Even though the rank tracking is good, it can be more accurate. So better to put more efforts on it.
Tracking our keywords in search engines. Backlinks monitoring to improve our rankings. Have clear idea on how our competitors are doing.
I like the fact that I can view where I stand on multiple search engines is beneficial as well as in comparison to what my competition is doing. I also enjoy the SEO site audit.
I used this software in the past and did not come across any cons while using.
Do a trial run but I am sure you will agree that this software is beneficial to your company.
Accessibility to site issues as well as a better grasp on brand mentions
I got used to another tool from a few years of use, but I tried out RankActive to accommodate growing needs, and I like it. It does one thing, and it does it very well in an affordable model, far from the rest of the industry.
They give you 2,500 keywords, 25 sites and 5 different engines/locations to check from for each site. And unlike other rank tracking software, these do not count against your 2,500 keywords, so you get what others would count as 10,000 keywords. That could get really expensive elsewhere.
Other tools I like are the No-non-sense keyword research tool, which I found very useful. I also like the way the site auditor works, showing you a detailed list of the pages of your site by problem/alert, rather than just telling you your site have certain problem in X number of pages, or just listing the pages.
I think what I miss the most is the absence of competitive analysis tools, and the ability to quickly audit sites that are not in your rank tracking list (potential client/competitor scenario. But other than that, it gets the job done.
I have found a small bug in the interface, but it has been fixed since. I also didn't like the icons in the beginning, but that is just a matter of preference.
If you find yourself with growing needs, RankActive is the way to go, rankings have been pretty accurate in my experience, and you will not find any other rank tracker with a more affordable pricing model.
I can track more sites and more keywords with a 5 engine multiplier, for a bit more money than others charge for much less. I find myself coming back to their keyword research tools, and complimenting my other site audit tool with RankActive's. Overall, good for the purpose, and
