Jason: Hi, my name is Jason. I am a Lieutenant. I give Nextdoor a five out of five. And for more ratings like this, please click below. In my line of work, we're always looking for new and innovative ways to engage with our community. And it's very hard to do based on varying work schedules and just the overall geographic size of our city. Nextdoor allows us to specify and tailor our communication to different neighborhoods and HOAs and parts of the city. It makes it very easy for us to connect with the people that live and work within our community. What I like best about Nextdoor is the ability to narrow and widen your communication to the entire city or to specific groups or neighborhoods within your jurisdiction. The thing I like the least about Nextdoor is pretty much the same with any social media platform. As you engage with your citizens, sometimes this can lead to some distasteful and hate-filled communication between citizens within that group. However, Nextdoor, it's very easy to set restrictions and cut off some of the threads to reduce some of that poor communication between neighbors and citizens.

Lisa B.: My name's Lisa. I'm an executive assistant at a public high school. I give Meta for Business five out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. Before using Meta for Business, we were trying to make an online social media presence. But it was a little bit difficult because everything had to be done manually and at the time that you wanted it to be posted. It required a lot of attention. We only had that attention to give during business hours, which isn't ideal because people are looking at social media in the evening. Obviously, there was an issue there. We started using Meta for Business because Facebook and Instagram are our two biggest social media pages that we use. Those two are incorporated through Meta for Business now. We can do everything in one single place. It's very convenient. Getting started with Meta for Business was super simple. We had a Facebook page already, and it just walked us through how to do it. It just said, "Meta for Business is now available to you. Do you want to take this little tutorial?" It gave me a quick tutorial. Probably took less than five minutes. It was very self-explanatory from there. We've been using it ever since. I definitely recommend getting Meta for Business if you have any business that has a social media presence online. It makes things much easier to schedule them out, to post in multiple places, to respond to messages. It's free. It's super user-friendly. Anyone can do it. The best part is we can have a whole team of people working on it. It's not just one sole person's responsibility.
