The most widely recommended tool in local SEO communities for managing and optimizing business listings across search engines. Includes local listing management, citation tracking, and rank monitoring in one platform.
Moz Pro has the most complete tool set we reviewed as part of this roundup and its metrics have become an industry standard even among marketers that use other tools.
My personal recommendation is SEMrush, been using it for the last 2 years. If you only have 1 website and you don't need ongoing tracking, but rather a one off keyword research and backlink gap analysis to export into your own spreadsheet and to run a quick health check, just activate the free trial on SEMrush.
Both SEMrush and Ahrefs are a good choice overall. I've heard horror stories about Search Atlas. Ahrefs & SEMRush have more data on keywords & backlinks and has better crawlers compared to any other tool in the market.
