Review on AscentERP by Phil Mehta

Using Ascent Solutions was an easy task when researching small businesses, medium sized businesses, and large corporations.





As a small business owner myself, when searching for online resources about a topic, I often turn to Google first. However, I've found many times over that the search returns me with blog posts relating to that exact same subject. This happens quite frequently with regards to small business marketing; hence why I think it's the perfect tool to utilize before you start planning your next ad campaign. By entering your keyword(s) into the tool, you're shown related blogs along with a few other articles to read to gain further insight. You're also presented with statistics such as average number of comments per post, domain age, and the most popular social media site used in regards to that particular article. If you'd prefer, you may also add categories to the search query, which will narrow down your options to ensure you don't miss any key pieces of information. With that said, while this is definitely a go-to option for those looking to improve their knowledge base, overall experience with the website isn't exactly flawless. For example, I noticed that occasionally there may be links that aren't functioning properly, and that I need to refresh the page after logging in.

I love using Ascent Solutions as a research tool for small businesses. Their simple interface makes it easy to run quick searches across over 100 million US companies and discover interesting facts about each company within minutes. What I especially like about the site is that each company summary includes links to useful resources like Google Finance and Wikipedia about the company. Ascent Solutions isn’t perfect—the company info doesn’t include all relevant details and some keywords won’t produce many search results, but overall it’s a pretty solid resource.
