For the past decade and with the availability of online consumer reviews, companies and researchers have developed many approaches utilizing electronic Word-of-Mouth to improve and develop products and services to outperform competitors. The purpose of this study is to construct an effective method to perform a better product comparative analysis based on online consumer reviews. We propose a novel framework called Teardown Joint Sentiment-Topic analysis model consisting of a combination of text analytical approaches incorporated with a developed method of the traditional teardown analysis product comparative approach. The proposed approach is fully unsupervised model that employs Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic modeling to form topics which are classified according to their sentiments. Topics are then analyzed against competitive products and critical topics are identified using a developed teardown method. A case study analyzing online customer reviews of competing products in two domains (i.e., mobile phones and surveillance cameras) is conducted. The identified critical topics are further analyzed in view of products\u2019 specifications perspective. We found that the detected aspects of the selected products are indeed critical, and hence, they need to be improved in order to gain a competitive advantage. The significant result of this study shows that the proposed method is effective in conducting products comparative analysis and provides valuable insights into utilizing the consumer reviews for product development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1063293x211047290","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,13]],"date-time":"2021-12-13T01:39:40Z","timestamp":1639359580000},"page":"21-31","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Conducting product comparative analysis to outperform competitor\u2019s product using Teardown JST Model"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Cuiqing","family":"Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4420-3251","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdullah","family":"Alqadhi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7903-7687","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mahmood","family":"Almesbahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, China"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/b978-0-12-411519-4.00006-9"},{"key":"bibr2-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.elerap.2014.11.004"},{"key":"bibr3-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICDM.2014.82"},{"key":"bibr4-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eswa.2018.07.005"},{"key":"bibr5-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/RAMS.2008.4925790"},{"key":"bibr6-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jretconser.2018.02.006"},{"key":"bibr7-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.dss.2013.07.009"},{"key":"bibr8-1063293X211047290","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cirpj.2018.06.003"},{"key":"bibr9-1063293X211047290","volume-title":"Tear Down Analysis Technique in Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in Lagos Industrial Metropolis","author":"John AO","year":"2014"},{"key":"bibr10-1063293X211047290","unstructured":"Kessler W, Kuhn J (2013) Detection of product comparisons - How far does an out-of-the-box semantic role labeling system take you?
