"Excellent tool"
Helps analyze the best of LinkedIn and its power. There's nothing I dislike so far. It helps me optimize my LinkedIn profile game.

"Shield is a must-have for LinkedIn personal branding"
The in-depth stats you can track are amazing, especially since LinkedIn limits what's available for personal profiles. The UX/UI needs significant improvement. Data presentation is hard to understand and needs a lot of work. The key problem it solves is understanding the metrics of our personal branding growth.

"Complete insights into your personal brand reach"
I love that it shows metrics LinkedIn hides. You can see exactly how well your personal account reaches the right audience. I don't know of any competitors; Shield offers a unique service. Nothing to dislike! I just wish my company would pay for it. I believe personal branding and employee advocacy are critical for every B2B company, so they should include Shield in their tech stack. I can see which posts perform and which don't, and it's great to track my progress and provide metrics for my LinkedIn work.

"Not suitable for growing companies; support is unhelpful"
I couldn't get access because the tool is clunky in every aspect. It might work for personal branding as advertised, but not for companies. Everything is clunky. I work in tech myself (different industry), and compared to other tools, this one is underdeveloped. The website is hard to navigate, and getting help or training is nearly impossible. I couldn't link my account, and there's no troubleshooting documentation in the help center. It might work for personal branding, but give it a few years before it becomes viable. Unable to link account, no support, no documentation. Give it a few years.

"Top-notch tool for LinkedIn personal account analytics"
It allows me to compare all my posts and see which performed better, and highlights those with the highest engagement rate, which is very useful for planning future content. I currently have no complaints. After trying several LinkedIn analytics tools, Shield is the best. It's worth the price. I was struggling to track engagement rates and understand what my audience likes, and Shield solved that.
C
Customer Success Manager
"Essential for every content creator"
We use it for both corporate and personal purposes. I appreciate not having to log out and log in to switch between the two. The metrics are spot-on, very useful for understanding what works and what doesn't. I'd like an easier way to identify the best posting time for engagement—I know the best days, but the hour is key. That's my only suggestion. It helps determine which content gets engagement and which doesn't, solving the problem of not knowing what drives organic growth.

"Great idea, but execution is poor"
The concept of tracking all LinkedIn account performance in one place is good. Onboarding is overly complicated. You can't add team members directly; you have to use an external form, and almost everything requires contacting support. Also, if you value your LinkedIn profile, avoid this tool—I got restricted within an hour of installing their extension. Use case: tracking team LinkedIn performance.
I
Independent Consultant
"Good concept, but billing and pricing are shady"
Being able to see all LinkedIn analytics in one place. However, the website advertises $8/month but actually charges $228 annually. It lacks features. None.
S
Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)
"Awful customer service and too expensive"
It allows me to identify my top LinkedIn posts. However, support is terrible. The tool is overpriced, and when I can't access it, it takes days to resolve because customer service is slow. Unfortunately, it's too unreliable. If not for that, the product would be decent for providing LinkedIn analytics for my personal page.
M
Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)
"Data quality is poor"
Filtering analytics by post and having multiple accounts on one dashboard results in extremely messy data that is hard to interpret. Date filtering is unreliable — clicking a week range often shows different days instead. Weekly data for key accounts occasionally goes missing. Support responds quickly, but it's frustrating for a simple use case like tracking personal social media performance.
