I have used both the free and paid versions, Paid is a great value if you want to schedule more than 10 posts at a time. The customer service has always been super helpful and quick.
Software has always had issues with it as each "upgrade" can result in loss of features. I hesitate to upgrade because of this.
The starter package is affordable and the returns on investing in Buffer are huge in terms of time saved, improved reporting and improved social media content.
Sometime it stuck on the time of low connectivity or might be some system error. So due to this the post has been stopped and it didn't post on social channels.
From posting to scheduling all the tasks,it made everything very easy. And the super best part:- it generates good results and even my other developer friends are satisfied with the result.
Scheduling with IG can be difficult and it will unlink your account with no warning.
A good tool depending on which features you're looking for, and what price point you're comfortable with. We didn't love the limit on the number of posts for each membership level.
I used to this for quite a long time, but decided not to continue it as my client is changing her monthly content. The pricing structure is a bit confusing.
I love being able to see everything I have published as well as all my drafts and the easy integration to other platforms like Wordpress and Medium is very useful and time-saving.
But there is no formatation - so it looks strange at my blog.
I have a very professional and amazing experience with StoryChief, because now using this platform I really save my lot of time. I have increased my revenue with this publishing tool.
I miss Instagram integration and video, gifs or “more than a single image option” in social media post manager.
My website theme has had a hiccup in Safari and SC has been helpful in helping me identify what needs to be fixed so it look perfect if people view from Safari.
The only thing I miss about the tool e not having it in my native language (Portuguese), but it's expected and it does not impair me to use it for Portuguese content.
I love the possibility to publish in one time your story in the most important social channels and also in the personal blog. I use this software for all my story and i save many many hours of work.
Want to however suggest a feature if possible. If there can be a way that one can drag and drop scheduled stories on the calendar without having to go into the actual story and changing the dates.
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.
Dave: Hi, my name is Dave. I'm a director at a design agency, and today I'll be reviewing StoryChief, which I give a four out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click the link below. So before using StoryChief, I use Hootsuite and Buffer, and some other social media tools, but I found most of the tools were just convoluted. The UX or UI were hard to navigate or just added features that I didn't really need. So StoryChief has quickly become one of my favorite tools far as content planning because it just has a very intuitive interface. It's easy to get around. And then when you're actually writing the post, it gives you great feedback from an SEO perspective. Then after you have the content ready to go, you can easily ship it off to a variety of platforms and schedule things on a, just a very easy to calendar. The onboarding process for StoryChief was super easy. I would say it was up and running within 15 minutes. The account information they asked for and everything, it was all breeze to kind of get going. And yeah, it's just been a blast working with it. For those of you that are considering StoryChief as a content planning tool, I highly recommend it. It's easy to get up and running and just, I think the cost is very affordable and it's just a joy to work with.
