Competitive Intelligence analysis is available in the Statistics → Competition section of Partoo, through two pages:

  • Competitors' Reviews

  • Competitors' Review Analysis

👉 These two views allow you to explore your competitors' performance from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective.


"Competitors' Reviews" Page

1. Filter your analysis

On the statistics page, several filters allow you to refine your reading:

  • Level of analysis: global (organization/group) or local (Business)

  • Analysis period: analyses are conducted quarterly

  • Competitors: selection of one or more competitors (default: all)

  • Tags: selection of a business theme (one tag at a time)

👉 All indicators automatically adjust based on the selected filters.


2. Understand the overall market performance

The main indicators allow you to compare your performance to that of the market:

  • average rating

  • average review volume

  • average response rate

👉 These KPIs are calculated from the average of all selected competitors.


3. Compare performances in detail

A comparison table allows you to position yourself against your competitors on several indicators:

  • Average rating: displays the competitor's average rating over the selected period. It is calculated by averaging the ratings obtained across all the Business locations they own.

  • Average number of reviews: average number of reviews per competitor POI over the period. Calculated by dividing the total reviews received by the number of Business locations.

  • Response rate: displays the competitor's average response rate over the period. It is calculated by averaging the response rates of all the Business locations they own.

  • SEO positioning: displays the competitor's SEO ranking for a selected keyword.

  • Share of positive reviews: displays the percentage of reviews with 4 or 5 stars out of all reviews received. It is calculated by dividing the number of 4 and 5-star reviews by the total number of reviews received.

👉 The table highlights:

  • your performance (in blue)

  • the market average (in yellow)

  • and each competitor's performance

Charts also allow you to track the evolution of these indicators over time.


Focus: rating distribution

A dedicated tab allows you to visualize the distribution of ratings:

  • display by competitor or all competitors

  • view in percentage or volume

👉 This allows comparison of review structures among market players.


Focus: SEO positioning

A “Position” tab allows you to track your Google ranking evolution for a given keyword. A keyword filter is available when multiple keywords have been defined in the settings.

Local results are aggregated and compared to the list of competitors you have chosen to offer you a national view.

👉 You can compare your evolution to that of your competitors over time.


4. Identify market strengths and weaknesses

The analysis highlights the main trends from customer reviews:

  • Top 3 strengths: most positive themes in the market

  • Top 3 weaknesses: most negative themes

👉 These insights are expressed based on selected tags and help understand market dynamics.


5. Analyze each competitor in detail

A dedicated view allows you to consult the strengths and weaknesses of each player:

  • top 3 strengths per competitor

  • top 3 weaknesses per competitor

  • direct access to detailed semantic analysis

👉 You can quickly compare your position to that of each competitor.


"Competitors' Review Analysis" Page

Each competitor has a qualitative analysis based on:

  • the themes

  • the sub-themes

  • the customer verbatims

👉 This allows you to precisely understand the customer perception behind the numbers.

A side menu allows you to navigate between competitors.
If a competitor does not have enough data for the selected period, it appears disabled.


Share results

You can export or share your analyses:

  • copy or capture insights from the statistics page

  • copy or capture qualitative analyses for your internal reports

👉 Currently, no automatic email or PDF sending is available.


Conclusion

This analysis allows you to combine:

  • a quantitative reading (e-reputation KPIs + SEO)

  • a qualitative reading (semantic analysis of reviews)

  • and a global and local view of your market

👉 You thus gain a complete understanding of your competitive positioning and associated action levers.
