"Social media monitoring used to be a research function inside the marketing team, and it has quietly become an operational function that runs alongside content, campaigns, customer care, and crisis response," said Steve Johansson, Managing Director at MarTech Breakthrough. "What is notable about Emplifi this year is how cleanly the platform handles that operational role, with AI summarization, sentiment analysis, and real-time alerts reaching the teams that actually need to act on what the signal is telling them. We are proud to recognize Emplifi as our 2026 Social Media Monitoring Software of the Year."
"Social media monitoring is no longer about collecting insights; it's about helping brands act while conversations are happening," said Susan Ganeshan, Chief Marketing Officer at Emplifi. "Brands today need to turn insight into action while the conversation is still happening. That's why we're building an Autonomous CX platform that doesn't just surface what's important; it helps community managers, marketers, and customer care teams respond with the speed and confidence today's customers expect, enabling a team of five to do the work of fifty. The brands seeing the greatest impact aren't simply monitoring more conversations; they're making faster, smarter decisions because they can act on what they know in real time. We're honored that this recognition reflects the industry's shift toward AI-powered social intelligence that drives meaningful business outcomes."
