Engage121 vs. X Pro

If you are in the franchising or multiple location industry, Engage121 could be very valuable and save a lot of time.

TweetDeck is very useful in an industry that requires the gathering of news and sharing of one's own content. We use it on a daily basis to keep track of breaking stories and key trends to inform what content we produce. After this content is produced and published, we then push it on social using TweetDeck. While many things are posted immediately, we also schedule a lot of content throughout the day to ensure 24-hour coverage. The platform is remarkably suited to this job, more so than the native web client.

• Customer service with Engage121 is very quick

• TweetDeck provides a detailed snapshot of your timeline and mentions in one view.
• TweetDeck allows for scheduling across multiple accounts, and shows when each tweet is ready for publish.
• TweetDeck allows you to customize the information you see for each account. If you don't want to see mentions but do want to see DMs for a certain account, you can do that.

• The platform was rather slow, and sometimes glitchy to use.
• Would like more detailed analytics that breaks down each social page attached to the platform rather than general, over-arching analytics.
• Pricing is high for the functionality.

• Muting in lists - I have several lists, but I am only allowed to mute in a home feed. I would like to mute things not just in home, but in lists as well.
• I have no other complaints. I really love Tweetdeck.

We are choosing a new platform to go with. It is not my choice to leave Engage121, but it has the majority of the capabilities that we need to get things done. That said, if needed, I would choose to use it.

As I previously mentioned, if TweetDeck were to increase some features and integrations, cleaned up its interface, and developed a tool to measure ROI, it would remain competitive with HootSuite and Hubspot. Altogether, it is an effective tool for the job of scheduling and monitoring your impact on Twitter, it falls behind other competitors that offer a more robust solution.

I think TweetDeck is very easy to use and set up. If you've used Twitter or X before, you will be able to easily understand how to use TweetDeck, as they base their UX/UI on the real platform. It has a similar look and feel, though you can do much more when logged into a single account on the platform.

TweetDeck tends to be available for use majority of the time...however, I've had times where it would get stuck in a loop and then post my Tweet multiple times.

Besides posting multiple times when stuck in a loop not other real issues.

TweetDeck is a great platform for using Twitter, and I heartily recommend it to anyone who continues to use the native client. Having both a web client and application means it can be used anywhere and on any computer, even if you are unable to install applications on your PC. For any news editor who needs to keep tabs on the latest news and promote your own content - TweetDeck is a must-have.

Easy download and launch of application.

I did not have a role in choosing Engage121

We found TweetDeck was simpler to use and easier to navigate for handling tweets than Hootsuite. While it did not have the broader ability to handle multiple social media platforms, unlike Hootsuite, its ability to give you great oversight of many Twitter/X accounts at once meant it was the ideal tool for that platform. Hootsuite, however, has deeper sophistication and opportunities for social media managers looking to handle everything in one place.

• Scheduling posts ahead

• As an intern it is much easier to get through social media posting and move on to other tasks with a scheduling tool like TweetDeck.
• Although TweetDeck helps our small staff stay very active on social media, it is not an integral part of what we do on our site. Instead, it helps the team focus on creating content by cutting down time spent managing social media accounts.
