Rezensionen

"Der Auftritt eines Unternehmens im Web benötigt eine ganzheitliche Ausrichtung, um für die Firma insgesamt erfolgreich zu sein. Deshalb muss sichauch das Web Monitoring im eigenen Netz- und Systemmanagement widerspiegeln. Dieses englische Werk verfolgt einen integrierten und systematischen Ansatz im Sinne von Web 2.0. Dabei werden nicht nur die eigene Webseite und deren Besucher, sondern auch Online-Communities und aktuelle oder zukünftige Mitbewerber einbezogen." -- IT-Director, November 2009
