Online monitoring

In Listen, you build a search query for the topics you want to monitor. Add search terms and exclusions, filter results by source and period, for example, and use search operators for more advanced queries.

Save the search query and use the same selection for alerts, dashboards, reports and daily overviews. That way you don't have to rebuild a monitoring question every time, and you can track changes over time.

Use online monitoring for environmental analysis

Follow which topics are being discussed around your organisation and environment. Trending Topics shows which words, hashtags and phrases stand out.

You can also see how the number of posts changes and which sources and authors contribute to the conversation. Use this information to keep tracking topics, share them internally or include them in a report.

Get real-time alerts for crisis monitoring

With Alerts, Coosto automatically keeps an eye on saved search queries. Set up a notification for, for example, a rise in the number of posts, a change in sentiment or every new post within a search query.

After a notification, you see which posts are causing the change. In crisis monitoring, you can use this information to assess the situation, share it internally and decide whether further monitoring or escalation is needed.
