F5Bot, from memory, only does a few services correct? You won't get general web data.
Google Alerts, I have it and it doesn't pick up a lot of social data. For instance, I have never seen Reddit data come across on my Google alerts for terms I monitored with it. Could be me, but if Google Alerts did everything Brand24 or Mention or BrandMentions did, I would have not needed to code this.
So you would need to combine Google Alerts and F5Bot and maybe another tool to get more data.
I also don't remember things like Sentiment Analysis ( coming soon ) and other features available on Google Alerts and F5Bot.
Syften, at the time I was building and launching, only covered a few select communities and not the whole web. Maybe things have changed lately since we launched, but they were only at the time, select communities which seemed focused on Dev or tech discussions.
We do our round-trip about every 3-4 hours at the moment while testing things out. Our plan is to reduce that time from 3-4 hours to within 1 minute for sites like Reddit.
We are just ironing things out and evaluating demand, then tweaking things like that later on to much faster times.
