Key differences between Socialbakers Analytics and Facebook Insights
Today we want to tell you a little about the differences we feel between Socialbakers Analytics and Facebook Insights, as we get that question asked a bit.
Every social media marketer doesn’t only have to understand its own page performance, but also performance of their competitors. Some of you might be using Facebook Insights for checking your page stats, which provide some information about monitoring your own page only, and we have indeed integrated Facebook Insights. Socialbakers Analytics offers a more then Facebook Insights, we offer a detailed view on all of your competitors, and also seeing in detail on what content really works for you, and obviously our benchmarking features really help.
Some of the key features available under Socialbakers Analytics:

- In early November, Socialbakers integrated Facebook Insights and added a metric “People Talking About” to the portfolio of metrics available under Engagement Analytics. This metric contributes to the understanding of what content is generating fans’ engagement and enables tracking of competitors’ activities.
- Recently, Engagement Analytics updated its competitive metrics with a new feature called: Benchmarking; new feature that enables strategic comparison of brand’s Facebook page to the whole industry.
