OSE so slow!!!!

OSE so slow, Majestic and Ahrefs are kicking Moz's ass.
Any plans to make it faster and BIGGER?
-
Hey Sophia,
Thanks for the question.
We actually haven't had any other reports of undue slowness in OSE. It's possible you're seeing a lag due to your connection or machine?As far as making it bigger, we're always working to increase the size and frequency of our indices. It's tough to compare it to a company like Majestic or Ahrefs who's entire business is indexing while OSE is just one part of a much more comprehensive suite of tools.
I'm sorry to say it may be a while before we have the sheer volume they have.
Thanks,
Joel.

Is OSE having problems?
The healthpage says it is operational but I'm getting a ton of 'There was an error getting your data' messages. First I thought, it just happens to smaller pages, since testing it with moz.com worked. But even pages like nbc.com give me this error. I tried logging out an in again and even swithcing browsers - without success. Anyone else having problems like this right now? Cheers, Chris

OSE Says no Contact Information
For quite some time the Open Site Exporer has been labeling one of my sites has having "no contact info", the site has the phone number all over the website as well as the full business address in the footer. It's been like this for some time. Does the OSE make mistakes or am I missing something? The contact information is fully indexable, I ran a spider simulator and it was able to pick up the phone & address.

Thousands of Missing Links in OSE Report
Hi there, Moz reports 70k+ external links pointing to my site but when I use the Open Site Explorer to export all links, I only see 9,000+ I have tried combining different combinations of fields ('this root domain', 'this subdomain', 'all links' etc) but can never see more than 9,000 links. My website does redirect to www. and have a couple of subdomains, the report for non www. only shows around 120 external links. We also use Ahrefs and the crawl reports here display 40k+ links (on the dashboard and when exported) which makes me believe the problem is not with my website but rather OSE. Any help is much appreciated, Thanks, Jason

When is OSE updated?
Hey there, It clearly stands that OSE will be updated, well yesterday... on 21th April. In my experience, they usually update the date if they have technical issues or something... ...but now they haven't yet made any changes.

Why Moz Back links check tool is very Slow compared with other tools?
I've created a new website 50 days old with a vision of sharing high-quality content. I created some pages which are useful and helpful, what make other people link to my site. Early days, two weeks ago I've started checking my backlinks starting with Ahref and majestic. three days ago I decided to join Moz too and use Moz explorer. But, I discovered that Moz tool is too slow compared with other tools. Why? Starting with Ahref. They discovered more than 100 links and updating their data for my site as a new website every 6 hours as I know. Also majestic for the first time discovered six links then every two days they updating their data. Even Google discovered some of my backlinks. Specially links from high-quality sites such as Wikipedia with high-quality pages. Moz tool discovered zero of my backlinks even after subscribing. I don't think Moz need to discover websites like Wikipedia which already indexed by Moz. So, I wonder Why Moz tools are very very very slow like that? Update: (This is a question, not a discussion. So, please don't edit it) Can any Moz support answer please? Thanks.

OSE - Link Opportunities
I'm checking out this new Link Opportunities feature for one of our sites and what I'm seeing right now is pretty disappointing. For Reclaim Links, everything listed is an internal link on our site. It's got tons of URLs from our old Iciniti structure (replatformed to Magento mid-March). It's crawling tons of stuff that's blocked in robots. There are no links from external domains in the first 5 pages. For Unlinked Mentions, it's showing tons of mentions - 33,566 to be exact, a ridiculous number - mostly from news sites like Forbes, WSJ, Guardian, CNN, etc. These sites are not mentioning us. It's set up to look only for our brand name or domain name, so I don't know how it's thinking there are all these nonexistent mentions. What's going on with Link Opportunities?

OSE unavailable and Rank Tracker not refreshing
I tried to submit a help ticket, but the help tickets also are not working! OSE for at least the last 12 hours has been returning Unavailable. Also, Rank Tracker never updates and just endlessly spins. Can someone shed some light on the issue and when the solution will be implemented? Thank you
