Frank B
EVP
5.0

Frank B.: Good afternoon. My name is Frank, and I'm an Executive Vice President for System Integrator, and I rate Newswire a five out of five. Newswire gives us the ability to review current clients as well as potential clients to get a great overview on where the client is and where the client is looking to go in the future, thus preparing us for any future conversations we would be having with these clients. I like Newswire because their articles are always up to date, and in the future, they will always do updates to those articles as well as excellent commentary by the Newswire staff. What I think can be improved by Newswire is more in-depth questioning of the individuals who are being interviewed for that particular article. I think it would be a little bit more beneficial to individuals like myself.

Leah T
Research Specialist and Program Manager
4.0

Leah: My name is Leah. I'm a research specialist. In my area... In the department it is about 11 to 50, and I would rate Instagram about a four. I use the Instagram for social media marketing, networking with other people in my area of focus for work, and being able to connect and recruit individuals interested in our programs. I chose Instagram for... Our area of focus is to provide a platform to connect on a more personal level. Working with other businesses and organizations and making it fun for everyone, not just in a serious setting and to also have the more aesthetic side and being able to attract people to our programs and organizations. I think the one thing about Instagram that I would like to improve for work use is being able to connect more with other apps, other social media platforms. I know it's capable, but the accessibility sometimes... And I don't know if it's on Instagram side or not, but we have struggled with the use of connecting with Meta. The admin services, it's old school and we want to have an easier way to provide all of our social media platforms connected with Instagram without having the hassle of stalling with verification or admin, even if we are the admin.
