Agorapulse vs. PromoRepublic

I think Agora is great for small teams looking to schedule posts and respond to users. I haven't used it at scale, so I can't recommend it for larger companies, but I love it for what we do. If you're savvy with Google Sheets, then the Agora exports are really handy. If you don't need specific data or the ability to compare metrics, and just want a surface-level look at your social performance, the analytics tools are nice.

PromoRepublic is excellent for collaboration, such as working with freelancers, or clients who want to leave notes and be responsible for final approval. It's also good for brands who need ideas about what to post on a daily basis, as their idea library is quite extensive. The image creation tool is also good for beginners, with plenty of templates, though it isn't as extensive as Canva. It's definitely a solid option for social media management. Can't think of a situation where it wouldn't be appropriate.

• Calendar sharing - great for internal and external approval
• Community management - it means we can keep on top of engagement for all of our clients in one place
• Report - it's really useful for us to be able to create such in depth reports that we can use internally but also share with clients so they can see the results of what we are doing

• Generates post ideas and curated content. If I'm out of ideas on content for the week/month I can usually peruse their prepared content to generate ideas.
• Timed posting based on our current engagement rates. Helps me to decide the ideal times to post to ensure the greatest amount of engagement.
• Easy post editor. Has a plethora of images and fonts I can use to make an eye-catching copy for our social media.

• Reporting not available for personal accounts
• Adding TikTok
• Ability to tag personal accounts in LinkedIn and FaceBook
• When copying from one platform to another, one has to go and redo the tags or they will not come up properly. If the the @ is the same in the two platforms, it should take that into consideration and not ask to re-enter.

• I'd like to be able to drag and drop posts to different dates and times from the calendar view.
• I'd like to be able to duplicate an entire post from the calendar view and drag it to another date and time.

The decision has been made. It's time to get to work--no steps back. I feel confident this product is well suited to help me make progress. I want to get down business and utilize the functionality of this product to meet my marketing goals. I feel very comfortable with the choice I have made.

The user interface is fantastic. Clear and easy to use. The layout and navigation is very well thought out enabling us to work quicker, and smarter. Moving around Agorapulse becomes second nature very quickly, which makes day to day workflows so much easier. The features included are comprehensive, especially the reporting. And having everything in one place for messaging and monitoring is a real help

The user interface is very straight forward and easy to use. They also make it incredibly simple edit premade post ideas as well as create your own.

Agorapulse occasionally has outages or shuts down. It never interferes with my use of the application or any of my posts

Agorapulse has generally had great performance. Occasionally I have issues with my videos being posted on Instagram. I still am not sure why. the format of the videos is the same as the videos that are going through.

Absolutely amazing customer service. Some of it seems very automated and feels like you are not talking to a person. It would be better if it was just a normal email platform that it was coming from. But overall super great customer service and the company is always willing to walk new members through the use of Agorapulse which is awesome.

The staff walked me through the whole platform and asked me if I had any questions. They were very helpful in answering any questions I had.

I think Agorapulse is by far the most comprehensive platform and user-friendly. In my experience, the support on hand is responsive and easy to speak with through the online chat. Hootsuite, Adobe Express, and Buffer seemed limited in what they offer in comparison, particularly Adobe Express and Buffer. Both these platforms were clunkier for us to use and didn't offer as much in terms of listening and reporting. We used Hootsuite a few years ago and moved away from it before we developed our strategy, planning and reporting for social, so it might have the same capabilities as Agorapulse but the support and usability do not match.

I don't think there is a huge difference between the both, PromoRepublic and NapoleanCat. PromoRepublic takes that edge by having more social media networks, where NapoleanCat has only a few social media networks.

I'm not sure I understand what is meant by scalability.
