Daniel and Ciaran take an in-depth look at online tools to help you with any competitor benchmarking you might need to conduct. These tools are all ones we have tried and tested over the years and include a few which were never intended to be used that way but they work and do a good job if you understand what it is you are looking at. Some of them are paid for services but a lot of them are free and all of them are worth checking out.
