### "Happy with Feedly nearly a decade later"

June 19, 2025

5.0

I have used Feedly for maybe the last decade in my work as a scientist and a writer. Saves me so much time, as I dont need to go to each webpage multiples rimes a day to check for updated content.

Pros

Easy to set up and easy to use; I can´t really remember any time I had a problem using Feedly, which i have done every day for maybe ten years?

Cons

As with most pieces of software, there are pushing unwanted artificial intelligence nonsense, which i do not like.

It was not Google Docs, but you do not have the option here for the tool i used. I believe it was called Google Reader

### "Remember the days of RSS readers?"

March 3, 2020

5.0

A lot of time is saved finding the content you need to share. Even keeping up to speed on your industry or skills is easy-peasy.

Pros

Well, this is a lot like that, only quite a bit better. Feedly is a critical tool for any marketing team that needs to find good quality content to share. Feedly even has the ability to make it a collaborative process. Bookmark, share, schedule, and save your favourite sources by theme.

Cons

Sometimes apps have arbitrary pay-points, and in some ways, Feedly feels this way. Lots of value in both free and paid plans though

### "Dissapointing"

October 31, 2025

1.0

Pros

Not much. The service was average at best without the pro+ AI features which I was interested in. Greedy company locking them behond annual billing option only.

Cons

All the good AI features are locked behind the pro + subscription which only offers annual billing. I even reached out directly to see if this could be changed but no luck. Honestly there is no good reason to not offer monthly billing for the pro +. Very unimpressed. The features of the pro only version are limited are very average for the price. Definitely not worth it. Would not reccomend paying money for it.

### "Great RSS Reader"

March 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

I use Feedly since Google's RSS Reader disappeared a long time ago. I love it! I use it both on my phone and laptop daily to keep up with the news and articles related to my work. I also like the "save" feature which lets you save a post to read it later. It is also very easy to add new content to follow.

Cons

Sometimes it takes a couple of hours to provide new content, but it might be because of the free version I use. I can't think of anything else.

### "Competitor Feed"

May 6, 2022

5.0

Pros

Makes my competitor research easily and gives me the opportunity to stay up-to-date on the market and product industry.

Cons

Some webpages couldn't load for quick read, i know it is not Feedly's fault but a solution would be awesome

### "Good way to have your news curated and delivered on a single platform"

April 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like the fact that I can have all major news platforms and their content aggregated on a single platform

Cons

The fact that it is based on a technology that not all content producers are plugged in, thus reducing the apps capacity to fully substitute the need to visit each website individually

### "Incredible Time Saver"

September 13, 2022

5.0

I decided to use Feedly as a time saver for my trend analysis and platform update research for my agency. I'd previously spent hours culling through my sources looking for relevant industry information, but with this web app, I was able to open ONE link to see all my sources. I teach all the new people on the team to use Feedly.

Pros

Feedly's capabilities as a source aggregator saved me hours and ours of research every week.

Cons

I wasn't able to figure out how to only pull specific topics within the categories. It ended up being fine because I narrowed in on the pages I needed to pull from, but it would have been great to be able to add keywords or topics.

### "Feedly A Good Social Media Posting Source"

July 16, 2021

5.0

My overall experience with Feedly has been good. I have used it as a content source for over 3 years.

Pros

I use Feedly for most of my social media posts. It creates enough different feeds where I can find content for most pages that I promote.

Cons

There are some days where the feeds have limited content for the pages I need to post for. I end up not posting on that day.

### "My favorite news feed"

July 16, 2021

5.0

Feedly has integrated itself into my morning wake-up routine. I have tried to find alternative services to see what is out there, but I find myself never temp to change.

Pros

Feedly has made it easy for me to find and manage my news feeds. I have used several different methods over the years but this is the one service that I've never felt the need to look for another. It's easy to use, customizable, and generally just works.

Cons

It has periodically had issues with suddenly showing old entries for a bunch of feeds or other annoying issues. But has overall been quite stable. I have seen some services that claim to display articles based on what you read. While these services have not been nearly as useful as Feedly, this is a feature that I think could be useful.

### "Feedly Handles the Fire Hose of Info"

July 15, 2021

5.0

I'm happy with the service and upgraded to the paid version which includes Leo. It works well with pulling in RSS feeds, Twitter feeds, and newsletters. It's nice to have the info come into a central place than having to go to so many other sources.

Pros

It nicely pulls in the sources I want to follow and provides an easy way for me to scan and determine what I should read. I also like that with the paid version you can pull in newsletters via a feedly email address.

Cons

There is a cap on the number of newsletters you can pull in. And I wish it were easier to ignore certain items such as ones with foreign languages.

### "Per restare sempre aggiornati sulle ultime news"

November 24, 2020

5.0

Feedly è un eccellente Feed Reader, che offre un’esperienza davvero molto piacevole, sia da desktop che tramite App.

Pros

Quello che preferisco di Feedly è la possibilità di organizzare il feed a mio piacimento, dividendo le fonti in cartelle tematiche e inserendo manualmente i siti che intendo seguire. Infatti, inserendo la url di un blog o un magazine che ci interessa, ti viene mostrato il feed e la possibilità di seguirlo, aggiungendo eventualmente in una cartella dedicata. Volendo, puoi creare degli alerts, inserendo keyword specifiche che ti interessa monitorare.

Cons

Per quelle che sono le mie esigenze, non ho individuato veri limiti o difetti.

### "Trying to use my phone for more productive things"

January 6, 2021

5.0

I only use my phone for social networking. My phone is also a work tool, so those are the only things that my phone is used for. Given the pandemic, I have been trying to do things outside my comfort zone and given a colleague recommendation, I started using the app. It seems that I only needed a good app to be interested in reading on my phone. I also don't read many books, so this is quite a jump from not reading anything, to read a little more during the day.

Pros

Is easy to use, which is encouraging because I don't read on my phone at all, this is a first.

Cons

The interface looks good, but is not as intuitive

### "Feed Your Inspiration Not Your Inbox"

July 9, 2022

5.0

My experience is positive for the most part and once I can afford to upgrade I will. I like to get as much information into my brain without signing up for more newsletters that I know I will never read. That would create an even bigger spam box.

Pros

I like being able to follow my favorite content like websites, blogs or magazines without having to fill up my inbox with newsletters. I don't need everyone to have my email especially if it's the first time I discovered the site. I prefer Feedly. It's an easy-to-use app that lets me save a blog or magazine site and follow it. I can keep up with what is new and organize it into categories.

Cons

Well, you can get enough use with the free version but you are limited to how much you follow and content create a ton of categories unless you subscribe to the premium version.

### "Everything in one place"

June 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

I love that all my information feeds are in one place and that I can search based on my interests. This allows me to share easily and also view differing perspectives on the topic of interest. I can also track my competitors and this assists market research.

Cons

Would be great if I could schedule posts directly to LinkedIn from the app. It allows you to share immediately but it would be great to be able to schedule the post. I currently use another app (not using integration) with feedly so that I can schedule posts but it would be better if feedly could do that.

### "A better way to read the internet after Google Reader"

October 11, 2020

5.0

Awesome and i never had any problem using it, the free plan are awesome the paid plan are more awesome, the only downside is the search feature are only available on premium plan.

Pros

\- Feedly are a very good alternative RSS reader after Google Reader discontinue - fast & many layout design for reading the content (compact, magazine etc) - the free plan offer an OK function - Black themes - Image thumbnail are pre-chaced, so i can see images from a website that blocked in my country. - recommendation feature on similar content are super-super awesome

Cons

\- no search function for free user - sometimes i overwhelmed with how much rss website i subscribe. - ads are in the middle of the rss feed, the same design with content, very very sneaky way to get a high click rate, but i dont blame them as it is a free version.

### "Feedly saves me time!"

June 9, 2021

4.0

Overall, Feedly is a huge time saving tool for me as a time poor Salesperson. I can achieve in 20mins what what usually take hours of scaaning the web for information. I highly recommend Feedly.

Pros

My primary use for Feedly is for keeping up to date with my Clients in the media which is critical to my role. Feedly allows me to aggregate all the media alerts of my clients into a single, easy to digest, platform. I can then spend 10-20 minutes each morning reading the lastest news and alerts about my clients and take that knowledge into my days meetings and interactions. It enables me to be alot more informed.

Cons

At the beginning I found it slightlty confusing to set up and differentiate my news list. However quickly learnt the process and was on my way.

### "Feedly is how I get my news and info"

February 17, 2023

5.0

Overall, I have been glad for Feedly since Google Reader was shut down.

Pros

Feedly makes gathering blogs and news easy. I cannot imagine having a feedreader to collect information from all my sources each day.

Cons

I miss the community aspect that Google Reader had. Having the ability to talk with friends about the content of various posts and articles made reading much more enjoyable.

Pros

Die Software ist einfach zu bedienen und bietet eine Menge Funktionen, die mich bei meiner täglichen Arbeit unterstützen. Ich kann Artikel schnell markieren, um sie später zu lesen, und ich kann die Artikel in verschiedene Kategorien einteilen, um sie leichter organisieren zu können.

Cons

Leider funktioniert das Tool nur über das Internet und die App.

### "The most popular RSS reader, although not the best"

October 13, 2022

4.0

It is easy to use and intuitive, but it lacks some options that are necessary today.

Pros

It is a standard in handling RSS information and is very stable. It has a high number of options for consulting RSS feeds. Offers high-level options, such as keyword monitoring

Cons

It does not yet include options for creating RSS feeds on pages that do not have it. It does not have specific options to be able to generate RSS feeds on social platforms such as Twitter or Instagram.

Liking it so far. Switched to the pro plan about half a year ago, and no complaints so far.

Pros

its easy to use, well priced , works on all my devices and has a friendly user interface

Cons

I wish it integrated directly with scoop.it which is my curation software of choice.

Reason for choosing Feedly

I found inoreader's interface quite clunky

### "absolute best RSS reader "

September 14, 2020

5.0

almost perfect and rarely do I use perfect to describe software tools!

Pros

so many content floating around the web nowadays, using a RSS is a must to curate the top content from trusted news source, and feedly does just that, also Leo the AI component does the job real well

Cons

so far nil, though it did has a small learning curve which i consider normal for SaaS anyway

### "Feedly Review"

September 29, 2020

5.0

I use this tool throughout the day to save and access all of my RSS feeds.

Pros

Feedly is an amazing RSS feed tool that I have used for years. I used to manually subscribe to RSS feeds over the web. Feedly allows me to search and select the sites that I would like to receive RSS updates for and get them all in one central and searchable place.

Cons

Once in a while I have some issues with trying to save feeds into a saved section. This has only happened a couple times in several years, but it was a bit frustrating.

### "All news in one!"

July 21, 2021

5.0

Pros

I am in a profession that requires me to keep on top of what's happening every day. Feedly really gave me a solution for that. Now I don't have to scramble to open a million tabs to be on top of my news. It also tells me which are the stories that are popular so if I'm running short on time, I can always focus on those instead.

Cons

I like everything about it so far! It fulfills my needs well.
