Where a dashboard tool wins: raw data depth. If you want to browse ten years of backlink history, a dedicated index is unbeatable — and SEOany can pull from those APIs when you connect them.
Where an agency wins: bespoke strategy and relationships (e.g. digital PR). Many teams pair SEOany for execution with a human for strategy — the agent does in minutes what used to fill the retainer's hours.
