Most Organized Social Marketing Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy and functional Sprout Social is to use. From the calendar to the social previews, it makes scheduling out posts easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
At time it can be glitchy, especially when tagging pages on Facebook. I usually have to save and go back and edit because it messes up text in the post.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Clearly visualizing and planning what messaging by organization is conveying.
User friendly and comprehensive
What do you like best about the product?
Sprout has all the features that a lot of similar software have but I particularly like the team roles that allow me to give different staff permissions based on the projects they are working on. This helps keep people focused and provides an extra level of security. In addition, while Sprout's reporting is very comprehensive, it also downloads in a client-ready manner! I love that I don't need to format any reports - they already come in a visually pleasing and easy to digest manner!
What do you dislike about the product?
We are a company on a shoestring budget so I'd appreciate having more associated accounts at our price point. But other than that, no other complaints!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team loves the scheduling function but my main problem had always been analytics. Their reports are so easy to generate that we are actually using them on a more regular basis to help us keep track of KPI's and other important metrics.
Great for All Things Social
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful feature of Sprout Social is the reporting/analytics dashboards. It is great to see all your channels in one place - the customized dashboards make it super easy to answer questions on the effectiveness of channels and their posts. Obviously the social management publishing feature of the individual posts is great as well. Being able to plan ahead and have the flexibility to change content or timing on the fly is wonderful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the listening tool wasn't so expensive. I think it would be a very useful tool, but currently we do not have the budget for it. Also some of the reporting for the paid media might be a little behind.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to pivot as necessary based on performance of particular channels or posts in real time. Reaching our social media KPIs has never been easier as we now have the information we need to make informed decisions on future posts. It is particularly helpful for paid social, where we know how much we need to spend to get to a certain level of engagement across all our channels.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are using multiple social channels, you should be using Sprout Social to ensure you are using them all to their upmost potential!
Robust Social Media Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I love the publishing queue, comprehensive reports, suggested publishing times, and post previews.
What do you dislike about the product?
Facebook integration leaves something to be desired, so I generally publish directly in Facebook instead of Sprout (which is extra work). I also wish we could boost FB posts via Sprout Social.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The calendar view allows me to see my client's progress. Sprout Social's reports are robust and allow me to provide amazing stats to my clients.
Excellent for smaller non-profits, missing some competitive features.
What do you like best about the product?
The features I find most helpful are the reporting capabilities, measurement analytics, message management and Instagram support.
What do you dislike about the product?
The ability to research topics and profiles as thoroughly as some other programs leaves much to be desired.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to stay on top of a large team of content creators at various levels to manage their postings and review their progress.
Handy tool!

It represents files and facts on the dashboard in very vibrant and.active manner. There is very much flexibility and smooth running of the tools. It provides very powerful CRM. You will surely like the desk managing capabilities of the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can add multiple users at a single time but it will limitize the services and speed of the software. It will become hectic t work with slow module. Keyword monitoring is very much Important on social media and this facility is limited at the software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For small and medium size businesses it is always difficult to manage social media activities. It was very much time taking, costly and hectic job. But nowadays it becomes an easy task. There are several tools for such kind of business activities. Sprout social is one of the tools. It is very reliable and flexible tool for social media management.
Great Experience!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to view my whole queued social calendar in weekly and monthly formats. The smart timing tool also is helpful when pre-planning my posts!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not always easiest to reply to a comment/tweet/etc straight from the platform. Also, while the integration with Facebook is great, I can't pre-plan shared posts which would be fun.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to see my whole post calendar and track all of our notifications! I also love the analytics to see overall trends and ensure I'm moving my brand forward.

What do you dislike about the product?
Its pricing is very high. It has limited social media platforms to be integrated with. You can only have four social media accounts at a time. If you need more apps it will cost more fees.

If you need YouTube or apps like Pinterest you must need another platform because it does not offer you these two apps integration. Cannot give you access directly to the internet. It does not provide you group publishing in face book or LinkedIn. It does not provide you side by side streams. It only provides you limited filtering.

Great Tool for managing Social Media
What do you like best about the product?
We run a multitude of social media sites, so it's great to have a central location to create and schedule. Love the calendar features. Overall, a great tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes my posts do not get posted - especially to Instagram. There is not really anything I don't like about it. I think the pricetag is a little high per user. We are a pretty small organization and I would like to see at least 2 seats for $99/mos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Social team has become extremely efficient and organized with the addition of Sprout to our toolbox. Once again, nice to have a central location to manager social media activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your research, you'll find a solution that fits your needs. For us, it was Sprout.
Sprout does it all!
What do you like best about the product?
We chose Sprout because it provides a "one-stop-shop" for our Community Management needs. We use Sprout to respond to all of our social inquiries through FB, IG, and Twitter. We also use it to schedule and publish all of our social content, as well as to analyze our performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
That there's no grid feature to preview and draft our posts in an Instagram grid before we schedule them. We wish the scheduling feature, in general, was more user-friendly. It's slightly difficult to track which posts are going out and when. We also wish there were other ways to calculate engagement as well as track our competitors highest engaging posts. Currently, Sprout only displays the top 3. We also wish they offered a link in bio feature as multiple scheduling platforms do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout enables us to keep our social communities engaged. We also save time by scheduling all of our posts in advance for each platform.
