I'm still pretty new at this and I have been using the old one the entire time. Well for my first site I finally got the number one ranking on my main term that according to the old KW tool gets 3000 exact local searches per month. The only thing is that I have only been getting about 3-5 visits per day for that term(I think one day I got 8, but some I only get 1). So, I go to the new KW tool the other day and according to it my term only gets 320 exact local searches per month, which seems to be in line with what I am seeing. I also went and ran a few other kw's I have been looking at through the new one and all were much lower.

Have you guys noticed this also?
 


I use the old one, the new one has inacurate information (tested on keywords I'm no.1/no.2 for, and I get almost no traffic, when on the new Google Tool it gives it 2,000 exact monthly searches...)
 
The old tool is awesome for building a list of related keywords quickly - the new one is a pain to export and save a text file of them.

The new tool is good for filtering down to a list of related keywords by category, but other than that - the old tool is much better.
 
For keyword discovery I'd definitely use the google adwords tool (logged in) since I had the exact same thing happen to me: 12k exact match search, 'yay, #1!!'.. wth.. 2-5 visitors/day?? adwords keywork tool (again, logged in) gives more or less accurate information for me

Yea, I definitely like the layout of the old one better, but what about traffic estimates? Have you noticed one is more accurate than the other?

Yea, I am logged in, but I am getting completely different traffic estimates between the two. Which one are you using the old or new?
 
New one, sorry forgot to mention. The new one is giving me reasonably accurate results.
