Ahrefs.com

The tool is very comprehensive and extremely accurate. The all-in-one solution covers pretty much everything a C-suite SEO professional needs - backlinks, referring domains, direct and broad competitors. Recently they added positions and keywords explorer that can seamlessly provide information about the strength of your keywords and brand compared to the competition and when you tie this new information with their social media reach tool you can have a clear picture of your SEO and content marketing efforts. Definitely worth the subscription.

Moz

I consider Moz's integrated marketing software as the best Internet marketing tool because of its data mining applications for SEO. A large portion of the SEO work I do comprises of influencer outreach (finding and building relationships with relevant quality backlinks), using Moz's Fresh Web Explorer and Opensite Explorer has helped me to identify and track link equity, brand mentions, and competitor link metrics.

Moz also allows you to do many of the features that Google Webmaster Tools and Analytics offers but all in one place, such as review crawl errors and see what pages are being found by users.

My favorite SEO tool suite is Moz because it is pretty much all inclusive and contains most of the analytic tools needed to manage an SEO campaign.
