While the platform has undergone significant changes recently, it remains a vital space for public discourse. The introduction of monetization for creators and improved video features has made it more versatile, though it requires a bit of effort to curate your feed to avoid noise. Overall, it is an essential app for anyone who wants to stay connected to what's happening in the world right now Pros The platform remains the best source for real-time news and global trends. The ability to engage directly with industry leaders, creators, and public figures is unmatched. I particularly like the 'Community Notes' feature for crowd-sourced fact-checking and the integration of long-form video and 'Groks' AI capabilities, which have added more depth to the user experience Cons The platform can sometimes feel overwhelming due to the high volume of content and occasional bots in the replies. The transition to the new verification system has made it harder at times to distinguish between authentic sources and paid accounts. Additionally, the algorithmic 'For You' feed can be hit-or-miss in terms of relevance compared to the chronological 'Following' feed Review Source TK Tim K. Founder Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A collection of HR Communication requirements." July 11, 2026 5.0 The use of Twitter/X has helped with our HR activities but it's not easy. Although it is undeniable that the tool can improve the communication process, it still needs to be mastered with patience and time to use. While it can be a great tool for keeping a public profile, and communicating with prospective employees, at times it can seem like a maze. It is part of our toolbox, but it's not the only answer. Pros Twitter/X is where we can connect directly with candidates and that's incredibly important in the industry. It's an excellent platform for publishing company news, and distributing employment opportunities to a broad audience. It helps us to share and exchange our values as a brand and to remain in tune with the latest developments. I've also used it to engage industry peers and stay across the competition in a relaxed and yet productive way. Cons It's a steep learning curve in the beginning, particularly if you don't have a lot of experience with social media. The interface is not always clear and inputting different profiles takes concentration. Not very user-friendly customer support can be frustrating as needs for quick solutions arise. Sometimes the amount of information can be overwhelming, affecting productivity in locating relevant interactions. Review Source Gianluca G. Designer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Charge without permission" August 29, 2026 2.0 They unlawfully charged me with Premium+ without me requesting it. When I went in the Settings to change Plan they ALSO charged me with the other plan! That's borderline a scam behaviour Pros Usability and Reach. The platform allows to connect with people with similar interests and to follow them Cons They charge people without their consent changing plans for users without their request. Overall the experience is good but this is unacceptable Review Source Earl T. Owner Voice Talent Broadcast Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "no support or cs on X" May 15, 2026 1.0 Frustrating no support available . There is so much inconsistency & no help offered been using at least 6 yrs Pros nothing now no cs why does it exist they don't care abourt users . used a long time & never had this problem Cons SUDDENLY X put in notifications my account is temporarily labelled limiting my reach. Earlier my account was suspended. put great effort to finding how to contact support & appears there is no support. Leaving the info on my account with no explanation or how to resolve it. it is the worst example of cs. i would give it a 0/5 but to get this reviewed have to put a 1. looks like confusing yet i can still get into twitter or X. confusing why i can get into my account. why is it temporay labelled & suspended no explanation given & nothing shows who to contact when i click more & system settings. Review Source PB Philip B. Founder Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Some things changed. " August 17, 2026 4.0 I was an early adopter in 2011 or so and loved using Twitter up until about 2020, when I felt that the app had shifted into something much more divisive. I felt myself not enjoying the experience of using the app. Pros The ability to browse around subject matters that I'm interested in, such as football, media, writing, authors, and films, and see what people think about various things Cons I don't like the shift towards more extreme content, both politically and graphically. I preferred it when it was more focused on conversation and less about conflict and creating division. Review Source LV Luis V. Account Executive Broadcast Media Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent as a source of trend insights for great broadcasting." June 6, 2026 4.0 Twitter/X, although quirky, is an important tool for connecting with our audience and for identifying opportunities to connect our station content with broader cultural conversations. It's no longer just social media, it's an unsuspected friend when it comes to grasp listener behavior and smarter client pitching. Pros Twitter/X has been a valuable platform, for following up on trends and local discussions that are of interest to our station viewers. I have been able to scan hashtags or see/like industry profiles quickly to help me pitch ideas to potential advertisers on what resonates with listeners. The post performing data is also extremely useful when scheduling social campaigns with ad sales campaigns. Cons The UI changes can be confusing at times, as soon as I get comfortable, they do a major update. It also seems like it's more depending on ads, and when I want to concentrate on competitor accounts or particular niche conversations, I can be distracted by the ads. Review Source KM Kim M. Financial Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Twitter/X is my long term friend" May 17, 2026 5.0 It has been an absolute pleasure using Twitter, if has many interesting and educative contents with many well educated people. I have been using Twitter/X for more than 10 years ago,and I'm still using it. Pros The blue-check mark feature on twitter is what I find most appealing. I can tell that an account is verified and the information posted from it is reliable when I see a blue-check mark on it. Cons DMs ought to be more closely watched for spam.Twitter's large amount of content can also be overwhelming. Twitter/X could also find addictive. Review Source SO Shane O. Operations Sporting Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Twitter/X is one of the main socials" July 23, 2026 4.0 Overall it is good and good for what we use it for. It is a big platform but something that might not be needed if not for the social media aspect Pros Overall Twitter/X is one of the more unique socials we use for our business and even personal use. It is one of the main 4 to 5 social medias required for a good business to have. We mainly use it for support or for customer connection Cons Overall we do not use it to promote or rely on it for social media ads. Twitter is kind of the wild wild west now so the engagement can be questionable Review Source iA ibrahim A. Marketing Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A powerful platform beyond social media" July 22, 2026 3.0 Pros It's a great and easy to use tool that provides real time updates for news or sports. It's a great way to connect with other users and brands providing a real insight on topics. Cons X (Twitter) is not the easiest for brand social media management and to scale up sales and competition, it requires a longer learning curve. Review Source Lexus K. Cleaner Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Id prefer other social media sites " August 10, 2026 3.0 Pros What I like most about Twitter is how easy it is to quickly see what people are talking about and keep up with news, trends, celebrities, and different topics I’m interested in. I like that the posts are short and easy to scroll through, and it’s simple to find different opinions or join conversations. Cons What I like least is that it can get pretty negative and argumentative. There are also a lot of fake accounts, spam, and posts that aren’t always accurate. Sometimes my feed feels repetitive or shows me things I’m not interested in. I also find some of the changes to the app and its features a little confusing. Review Source PC Paula C. Marketing specialist Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Community regulations " January 11, 2025 4.0 Pros Like Twitter/X because every news posted on Twitter is verified and not violent to community. Cons Twitter/X offers blue tick after payments, therefore someone accounts are given blue tick when it's not necessary. Switched from [Discord](https://www.capterra.com/p/240238/Discord/)[TikTok](https://www.capterra.com/p/237591/TikTok/)[Instagram](https://www.capterra.com/p/210721/Instagram/) Twitter/X has more connections to professionals than those another softwares. Review Source JFR Joe Felix R. Entertainer Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A neccessity for our day to day internet life! " October 3, 2025 5.0 Overall my experience with X is a good one. To be able to interact with people I enjoy watching on YouTube and talking with others regarding things of my interest is a breath of fresh air. The layout is clean and organized. It's even easy to find things thanks to the search feature. Pros X is a place where one can express their opinions freely and explore all the things that they love. If there's something of interest to you, odds are someone's talking about it. With the search feature, finding things that interest you have never been simpler. You can even find all your favorite Celebrates on X! Cons By far, my least favorite thing about X is the paid features requiring you to use real world money. The price isn't completely unreasonable, but it's not good to lock basic things like Post Engagement and longer posts behind a paywall. Review Source MD Mwangi D.

Community Manager Gambling & Casinos Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "X like Paying for" July 29, 2025 4.0 Now everyone can purchase premium and copy your brand name. Definitely, that's a bad thing to allow twitos to have access to an authentication badge just by paying Pros Using Twitter Pro can be better for creating and bringing a brand to life. Ideal to have much attention to a project or just follow the news as a user. Cons It’s the social networks for growing fast and developings your audience through ads or organically . Review Source CJ Cassandra J. Electrical engineering Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Friendly tweets " November 19, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Twitter is great it's a good platform to communicate with peers and people Pros What I like most about Twitter is that you have the options to post and retweet people's post and communicate Cons What i like least is that twitter doesn't have to many video and live options like other app do and needs to be updated Review Source RM Renee M. Wfh Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Twitter is the Name" July 3, 2025 3.0 My overall experience with this is was a good one because I enjoyed the posts and so on, except for my information was always the up to date. Pros I like the layouts of the app, easy to navigate and it has many topics most people would be interested in. Cons I would have to say that I didn't like that my feed wasn't always up to date for some reason. I don't know if it was the phone I used at the time or just maybe the app. Review Source BR Badru R.

December 2, 2024 4.0 It is one of the best social media platform that offers real-time information both official and unofficial. It is very easy to use and has many functionalities. Pros Sometimes real-time news is beneficial. Another thing I like about X is you can engage with content creators and representatives on this user friendly social networking platform. Another popular thing about it is that you can combine it other social media platforms. It has different essential specifications; for instance we can interact with trustworthy people via communities and spaces. The important aspect is that X-space encourages us to give out our views, opinions and feeling freely which aids to better outcome for official purposes. Cons It uses a lot of data compared to related alternatives. The premium versions are a bit expensive. Review Source OE Olivia E.
