June 27, 2025 5.0 I have been with Meta Business suite for several years and I could not be happier. The updates have been actually useful features. Pros I love the ability to manage both our companies Instagram and Facebook all in one location. The ability to schedule our social media content easily is also a big draw for me. Cons The difference between business suite and the professional dashboard is not always to discern. I find myself struggling to find setting between the two. Switched from [Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/) Hootsuite was often not sharing my content as requested and I would get no notice. It is also nice to have business suite be native. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social Meida and Marketing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Why Meta Business Suite Makes Social Media Management Easier" May 22, 2026 4.0 Pros What I liked most about Meta Business Suite is how easy it is to manage multiple social media accounts in one place. The platform simplifies post management, scheduling, messaging, and analytics while offering useful features that make day-to-day social media management efficient and easy to navigate. Cons What I liked least about Meta Business Suite is that scheduled posts can occasionally fail to publish, especially when planned far in advance. It doesn’t happen often, but it can be frustrating when managing multiple accounts and relying on scheduled content to go out on time. Switched from [Later Social](https://www.capterra.com/p/152254/Later/) I made the switch because Meta Business Suite felt much more efficient for managing multiple accounts and platforms. Compared to Later, it streamlined scheduling, messaging, and post management in a way that better supported my daily workflow. Review Source Jaime M. Paid Media Senior Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Less and less control on our campaigns " July 16, 2025 3.0 Like I said earlier. When I strated working with Facebook Ads 6 years ago, we had a lot of control of when, where, how and to who were showing our ads. Now everything has become automatic. Want to target an specific audience? The algorithm takes it as a recomendation. Want to target only Instagram and not all the other placements nobody cares about? Thats going to cost a lot more of CPM You prepare an ad with a lot of care? The algorithm is going to crop the creative, put some horrible music on top and say that doing this is going to improve the performance. Pros Easy way to generate quality traffic, depending on the market it can be very cheap. Quick way to gain data if you launch a new website. Cons Day after day we have less control over the audience we target. Everything is becoming more and more dynamic or automatic. Alternatives considered [Pinterest](https://www.capterra.com/p/234608/Pinterest/) Reason for choosing Meta for Business Because of the audience size and engagement Review Source Michael Z. Owner Music Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Meta for Business gives every business owner a chance" April 15, 2026 5.0 Overall, Meta for Business has been a solid tool, especially once you get past the learning curve. The targeting and data are really useful, and when things are dialed in, it can actually drive results. That said, it’s not the most user-friendly platform, and it can feel a bit overwhelming at times. Still, if you’re willing to learn it, it’s definitely worth using. Pros What I like most about Meta for Business is the targeting. You can get really specific with who you want to reach, which is huge when you’re trying to promote music or shows to the right audience. It also gives you a lot of data, so you can actually see what’s working and adjust instead of just guessing. Cons What I like least is how confusing and clunky the platform can be. There are a lot of settings and it’s not always clear what actually makes a difference, so there’s definitely a learning curve. It can also feel like you need to spend consistently to get solid results, which isn’t ideal if you’re working with a tight budget. Review Source MN Melissa N.

It’s extremely important that we as a business are too. Meta business makes it easy to manage several pages and accounts at once across more than one social media. It’s very user friendly and does it all. Pros It’s a one stop shop and has everything you need in one place for social media. Comments, post, messages, analytics Cons When I schedule videos to post them it doesn’t let me crop them which is sometimes annoying but not a huge deal Review Source JR Jose R. Growth Marketing Manager Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Leading Social Platform offers small companies great exposure and opportunities for growth" May 9, 2025 5.0 The ability to track ads performance offers companies great opportunities for ROI Pros The leading social platform provides a lot of opportunities for brand awaress Cons When ads get rejected the support team is often times from different countries creating a huge language barrier Alternatives considered [Pinterest](https://www.capterra.com/p/234608/Pinterest/)[TikTok](https://www.capterra.com/p/237591/TikTok/)[Mailchimp](https://www.capterra.com/p/110228/MailChimp/) Reason for choosing Meta for Business Meta has more users therefore we decided our ad dollars would be better spent on this channel than any other Review Source HK Harrison K. Communications Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Better than I expected" March 20, 2025 4.0 I am happy with Meta Business Suite. I used a third-party social scheduler initially but eventually realized that the Meta Business Suite had everything I needed. Pros The scheduling feature is what I use most by far - it is very robust. I also like the Inbox feature that lets me see and respond to all the interactions I have gotten. Cons The layout of the menus is not the most pleasing. I also feel like some of the menu options could be consolidated to make it feel less overwhelming. Switched from [Zoho Social](https://www.capterra.com/p/159351/Zoho-Social/) I ended up not needing all of the features that Zoho offered, and Meta Business is cheaper. Review Source SA Samantha A. Digital Content Strategist Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent for scheduling" February 19, 2025 4.0 It's been very positive. They often make updates that sometimes can be frustrating to figure out, but are usually for the better so I don't mind. Pros As someone who manages social media for a business, it is so convenient to be able to schedule posts in advance, and also to be able to post on IG and FB in the same spot without duplicating work. Cons I wish you could add links to stories when you schedule in advance. Alternatives considered [Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/) Reason for choosing Meta for Business The cost and ability to schedule multiple image posts for instagram. Review Source Ali B. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Meta Business over all other Content Schedulers" September 21, 2024 4.0 Overall we prefer Meta Business to other content planners/scheduling platforms. Meta also prioritizes pushing content that is scheduled through their proprietary platforms (so this is also good for your content). Pros Meta for Business makes it easy to schedule content, especially cross platform Facebook + IG! My favorite feature is that I can change the copy of the caption for the same graphic being posted based on the platform it is posting too! It saves so much time! Cons Sometimes the platform experiences little glitches. Our agency has experienced issues with posts not publishing, or posting ancient publishing dates (one time a post published with a 1960's date stamp!!! Cannot make this up). The bugs have become less frequent but we still have check-in our clients content to make sure it is publishing properly!

While bugs still exist, they have improved! Switched from [Buffer](https://www.capterra.com/p/143492/Buffer/)[Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/) Meta is much easier to use, and the algorithm prioritizes content from Meta over third party schedulers. Review Source Duncan C. Digital Solutions Lead Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Meta for business, is the business " July 13, 2025 4.0 Overall, Meta for business is a valuble channel and tool to help me understand my brand and to control my marketing efforts Pros I love so much about Meta. I like the reporting tools and dashboards that offer plenty of insights and information on the performance of my campaigns Cons I don't like the restrictions on some of the targeting options on Meta. These have been limited over the years. Review Source DP Derrick P. Advertising Manager Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Advertising Manager " October 1, 2024 5.0 My overall experience is i've been using the platform over the last 10-12 years running ads for various events, concerts, brands or talent. Pros Running ads via multiple placements using one platform to control ad delivery. Cons You cant control frequency within the platform and even when you create rules they are not as effective as you'd like them to be.

Pros I liked the centralized management of different platforms on one dashboard which makes communication easier. This also simplified ad creation and monitoring across the platforms. Cons I did not like that sometimes there were delays in the scheduled posts which affected the publishing. Review Source SH Sadie H.

Pros Helps me link up my Shopify shop to my FB account. Cons One thing I'm struggling with is how complicated the whole operation is on the home page 😔 Review Source FA Fabian A. Civil Engineer Civil Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Facebook, a communication tool" December 6, 2024 4.0 It has a friendly features and they carry out routine upgrades Pros Allowing you connect and meet friends all around the world, i just one click Cons They get your account banned without reaching out to you on the reason for the ban Review Source MB Morgan B. Director of Operations Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A must use tool if you can overlook the customer service" October 14, 2024 4.0 Overall, I love the product when it's working properly. When there is a service-wide glitch, it can be painful. Pros Meta is a powerhouse for targeted image ads. Its a necessary part of most full scale marketing campaigns because you can achieve great results. Cons Meta's customer service is almost non-existent. You bounce from an automated message to a real person constantly redirecting you to another team which will then redirect you back to the first team. It won't get resolved if you can't solve your issue yourself. Review Source DD Derek D. Marketing Manager Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Must Have for Any Business" October 21, 2024 4.0 I work in Meta for business everyday running ads and monitoring comments.

Administrative Assistant Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Meta for Business Review" October 14, 2024 5.0 Overall I would recommend meta for business because of the consolidation of platform activity. Pros Meta for Business keeps all of your Facebook, Instagram, and messenger activity in one place. It makes it easy for you to manage from one platform. Cons It can take a little bit of time to get used to but once you get the hang of it, it is easy to manage. Review Source PB Paige B.

Pros Integrated with large social media platforms. When first using, Meta gives you a lot of support in setting up and how to use Meta.

Owner and Lead Photographer Photography Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Meta works if you let it" July 18, 2024 3.0 It's a love-hate relationship. It's also a necessary evil. Pros It reaches target audiences when needed, and has a somewhat flexible architecture. Cons Not everything is intuitive. I'm constantly searching Google to learn how to use some Meta functions. Review Source SM Shannon M. Service Data Analyst Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to promote my business" July 17, 2024 4.0 Pros What I like the most is how easy it is to market my business and how easy it is to create ads for my business. Cons What I like the least is the Messaging feature. I can receive messages from anyone but I am unable to message an individual or business first. When i want to reach out to another business to work with if they haven't messaged me first I have to message them from my personal page. Review Source VG Valerie G. Business Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zero Business Ethics and Human Decency" September 15, 2023 1.0 Zero benefits. Tons of headaches. They actually gave my Instagram username which I paid a consultant to grow to 3000 and manage content to a pervert looking for sex with women. I probably have a defamation suit, too. But I'm sick of thinking of this disgustingly greedy company. Pros Instagram. I so so so sad Meta purchased it. Cons I sued them for Gross Negligence and won in San Diego Superior Court. This is how the racket works: The hackers post child porn to the small businesses controlling FB page which get you locked out of all your Meta Platforms profiles. The hackers then charge advertising for their most likely fraudulent products to the payment-methods-on-file for small businesses they hack using child porn, which I was. The hackers charged much, much more than my small businesses budget ever would allow.. Then the hackers get to sell their fraudulant wares to Facebook and Instagram Users to victimize them (all on the small business victims dime.). The hackers win because they sell their fraudulent wares using the hacked accounts of small business victims. And Meta wins because they get tons more advertising sales to report. The losers are child porn victims because they drive up the value of child porn and us, the legitamate clients who advertise on Meta Platforms, as well as, the Facebook and Instagram Users who get tricked into purchasing the fraudulant wares. (This would explain why Meta doesn't offer easy access customer service support to the small business advertising clients that were victimized by the hackers. Gross Negligence is more profitable than safeguarding paid advertisers and Users. At the end of the trial, the Judge informed me that Meta gets paid no matter what -- because they get to keep the money. Banks don't go after fraudulant charges if it's cheaper not to. Reason for choosing Meta for Business I have always used several products. Thank god. If I'd put all my eggs in their trashy basket I'd be out of business.
