Pros
Many customers are impressed by their competitor tracking features. Through a click of a button, you can see your competitor's domains, ranks, keywords, and backlinks. From here, it's easy to see what works and doesn't work, building out a successful SEO strategy for your own company. Monitoring movements in keywords are easy, allowing anyone to track results and SEO efforts.
Semrush has also a great customer support service. Response form their support team is quick, and they follow up to ensure everything is going smoothly.
Cons
Semrush has an add-on pricing model, meaning it's very easy to run over your initial plan. For example, adding an extra user on the Pro plan costs $45, nearly half of the initial subscription price. Scale this for agencies who need to oversee 20, 30, 40 clients and the price skyrockets even more.
Additionally, Semrush only enables you to log in one account at any time. This means if someone else has logged into the same user account, the other would be kicked out. It's inconvenient for anyone using this tool. To avoid this, companies would need to purchase extra user seats, greatly increasing the costs. The pricing model combined with the size of teams needing access to the platform makes it difficult for many companies to justify the high expenses.
