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.
Get ready to be captivated by the perfect combination of stunning visuals and innovations that will transform your journey toward success.
There is only one thing which is that, lack in content quantity.
The long-form AI, you can write long blogs with easy steps, the learning curve is so great, I am using it write my blog in Arabic , amazing and easy to use, I recommend any copy writer to use it.
Sometimes it's hard to find some features. Translations to other languages are not so correct.
Simplified is a brilliant assistant to my content creation needs. I love the provided templates and being able to customise my own images with their software.
It has no option for drawing a brush. Maybe they would add that in the future.
The staff from the [SENSITIVE CONTENT] down to the chat support are all brilliant. Very helpful, very generous and kind.
Sometimes there're a few mistakes. But I guess it's all the matter of emprovement.
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.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
