How deep does each tool go on analytics?

Takeaway: Valley is strong on tracking LinkedIn outreach outcomes. CommunityTracker adds share of voice and community-level analytics across all monitored platforms.
If your ICP only lives on LinkedIn and you want a clean LinkedIn-native tool for job-change signals and connection requests, Valley does that well.
But most B2B buyers don't only exist on LinkedIn. They ask questions on Reddit, discuss tools in Slack communities, and post on Hacker News. CommunityTracker catches those signals — Valley misses them entirely.
For teams that want email outreach alongside LinkedIn on an entry plan, or who want Reddit and Slack signals, CommunityTracker covers the full multichannel picture at a lower price point. CommunityTracker plans start at $39 a month. Valley starts at $149 a seat a month, billed quarterly.
