Is Book Report still the "go to" for aggregating reporting, or is there a new, cool, widget?

It has its failings (oh, let me count the ways) but I haven't found anything better...yet.

I'm still using it, despite none of the AC stuff they increased the price for being available anymore.

I'm still happy with it.

I use it and have always found it easy. However, Amazon changed the ISBN format for paperbacks this summer to something akin to an ASIN. Bookreport now shows those paperback sales on the day of, but then they disappear forever in the historical reports. I reached out and BookReport confirmed this is the case and they are trying to re-engineer.
I sell a lot of paperbacks, so I'm bummed I won't have accurate sales totals for the newer ones?
I have thought about switching to reader links, but, you know. intertia!

Warning: Shameless plug ahead.
If you are tired of BR, as I was, check out ScribeCount. Everything BR has and more for less ($15/m) AND it reports on ALL platforms, not just Amazon.
We just added a Full Reads/Full Sales Calculator and it's customizable. Working on Audio now. 2 week free trial.

Full Disclosure: I invented this thing. Kept waiting for BR or someone to step up and do all the platforms in one place and got tired of waiting, so I did it myself.

Second nod for Scribecount. I need to activate my account, but overall, it works well. Only downside is you sometimes have to sign in with a store, but overall it has a lot of what I want and need. I've never said the words, "SC is great, but I really wish it did this too."
