Effortless Multi-Platform Scheduling Made Simple
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to schedule posts on multiple social platforms at once. I use it every day as a Digital Content Producer at my news station. Once I learned the process, it was simple to use and integrate with our coverage. I've never had any instances where I needed customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how, for YouTube, I can't monetize my videos via the Sprout uploader. The listening tool is great in theory, but in practice, the information we see is outdated most of the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout saves the team time and effort when is comes to getting photos/videos up on all of our social media platforms.
Streamlined Social Advocacy with Minor Tagging Tweaks Needed
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the Advocacy platform on Sprout Social. It's easy to use for our employees and simple to manage on the backend. This platform significantly improves our corporate posting, being one of the best we've utilized. We're able to broaden our reach by providing messages for employees to reshare. It allows them to customize content, encourages participation through leaderboards, and provides an estimated dollar amount of what those impressions are worth, with customization options based on our audience. Such features make it invaluable for increasing our social presence through automation and employee advocacy. Additionally, I appreciate the ease of onboarding with Sprout Social, with great support that made the setup seamless. Compared to previous tools we've used like HootSuite and Buffer, Sprout Social is my favorite.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of how LinkedIn operates, I cannot tag anyone on Advocacy. I also find the ability to find and tag someone on LinkedIn and Facebook challenging. Even when entering someone’s name exactly, they might not appear even though they are connected to me. Additionally, I'd love to see more social media integrations available, specifically Mastodon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you dislike about the product?
There were a few moments in my reporting where the information gathered from Meta was inconsistent. I appreciate the warnings that they give, and can understand when it is out of Sprout Social's control. However, when I am preparing these reports, the accuracy of the data is absolutely paramount, and there's no retroactive actions taken to mention whether the data has been successfully retrieved and updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprouts entire platform is the most valuable thing to me as the end-user. Being able to manage 10 profiles at once allows me as the sole user responsible for the company's social media, to quickly plan, optimize and execute digital strategies with just a few clicks. I'm able to report on the profile activity across several platforms, compare our insights and posting habits against our competitors, and review the general social activity from the dashboard.
