Buffer vs BuzzSumo: Which is a better fit?

Vanessa P.: Hi, I'm Vanessa, Intuitive Counselor. I work at Sirona Life Management, which is a company that I own. I use Buffer on a regular basis. I would give it about five stars, because it really helps me organize my social media presence. Before Buffer, I was trying to manage my social media presence across many platforms on my own, and that just was not working. So I needed some sort of platform that could organize that for me. I chose Buffer because there was an option for a free trial period before going bigger. And I always feel like that is super helpful, because I can try before I buy. You always want to know if you can handle that platform, not just if that platform works. Buffer is super easy to use. It's such an easy platform to navigate, and they have customer service that will help you if you get stuck. I definitely think that if you are a small company, you should consider Buffer, just because it really makes everything so much easier for you. It takes something off of your plate that we all have on our plate when we are the one that is responsible for our social media presence.

Megan G.: My name is Megan, and I'm the founder of an SEO and content agency. On a scale of one to five, I give BuzzSumo a five. And if you'd like to see more ratings like this, just click below. Before using BuzzSumo, I was doing a lot of the same work manually, or I would try using something like Google Trends to see what people were talking about online and how other people were reacting to that. I chose BuzzSumo because my agency produces a ton of content every single day and any tools that we can find that will do some of the grunt work for us, save us a lot of time and energy and money. So by using BuzzSumo we don't have to manually sift through social media posts and YouTube videos, it just tells us what's already performing well. Getting started with BuzzSumo is really easy. The tool is very user friendly and easy on the eyes and they make it very simple to find exactly what you need. So my team and I, we all use it on pretty much a weekly basis. If you work in the digital marketing or advertising space in any capacity BuzzSumo could be very helpful for you. All of us in this industry we need to constantly have our finger on the pulse and know what people are talking about online and where that information is performing best, whether it's on Facebook or Twitter or YouTube. So using a tool like BuzzSumo you can really take a lot of the heavy lifting away so that you can just focus on creating amazing content.
