    Chose Publer
    I chose Publer because it seemed to play really well with LinkedIn and that was the only channel I was planning to use it for.

    The main reason I use Publer and not anything else is the Recycling Feature. That is a brilliant feature and lets me keep my posting queue full without …

    Publer
    Publer is a great choice for in-house teams managing multiple sister brands because it combines all networks—Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Threads, Google Business Profiles, YouTube, and Pinterest—into a single drag-and-drop calendar, removing the hassle of separate dashboards and spreadsheets. The platform’s AI-generated captions, evergreen “recycle” rules, and simple approval process keep our content running smoothly and on brand, while built-in analytics offer enough insight to optimise timing and formats without needing enterprise-level features. We haven’t faced any major restrictions; when an API change caused a hiccup, Publer’s support team fixed it within a day. Agencies that require in-depth white-label reporting or detailed short-form video metrics might need additional tools, but for a small or medium-sized enterprise seeking seamless scheduling, quick optimisation, and responsive support, Publer hits the mark.

    Tailwind
    Tailwind can schedule your Pinteret pins, but it's an expensive platform to do this, and given it seems to miss many, it does not even do this well. Further, they continue to get you to reconnect, so it is cumbersome and poorly designed. We used it only because our vendors wanted it, but it's been a total waste of money given how poorly designed it is, how buggy it is and how useless the other so-called services they provide are. Go somewhere else as there are way better solutions as we have now found.

    Pros
    Publer
    • Autoscheduling - I press one button, and content goes out to predetermined schedules across the various platforms
    • Spintax - putting content on autorepeat with auto-generated unique captions!
    • I work with a couple VAs, and I can have them create the content, and I'm automatically notified to approve their work before anything goes out.
    • Easy access to past content for quick reusing and repurposing
    • Feedback - I love that I can always suggest new features, and they're always working on improving!

    • The extension for Chrome and Safari has been EXTREMELY helpful. Through research and continuing education, we frequently see information we'd like to share with our audience and the extension has made this so easy.
    • The SmartLoop feature is great for times when we get busy and may not have the time to add new things to our queue. I know even if I had zero time to devote to social media that day, I was still active and getting information to our candidates.
    • Interface is extremely user friendly. A lot of time these programs that are supposed to help us and bring ease to our workload are so complicated and intense that they cause more stress than they relieve. This is not true with Tailwind. Tailwind is easy to use and truly does take a load of stress off us as an organization.

    Cons
    Publer
    • It would be good to see better integration of the Instagram platform, when it comes to using trending audio, getting template inspiration etc, but this may be limited by the available API.
    • Hashtag analysis and suggestion is pretty limited, and this is a feature in the higher paid accounts.

    • When you add a link to your post and add the caption, it goes to the first line and not where I had the cursor. I do not want the link to be the first thing people read.
    • The Tailwind Create is fun and helpful but still hard to use.

    Usability
    Publer
    The UI for Publer has a great look and feel and it is very easy to use. When I first started using Publer I was very happy that it all seemed intuitive and the adding of social channels and setting up profiles works very smoothly as well. Overall very easy to use.

    Tailwind is great when it focuses on it's core functionality. However, in my opinion, Tailwind isn't great at listening to their customers and instead likes to add features that are not beneficial and tend to "break" the other features that ultimately sell it's product. In my opinion, it has lost ROI over time and was much better 3-4 years ago.

    I have received wonderful support from Tailwind. Recently when I was on their new Tailwind Create and was looking at their site photos, I had a question and I received an answer in less than 24 hours. They have also been receptive to comments and ideas to make the product better and they used some of the ideas as well giving us a discount for the help.

    Publer actually uses ChatGPT as a friend, it's not a similar product. You can use ChatGPT inside Publer to increase the quality of the posts and the texts that you can use in the posts, and also the comments in the post, and also other things in the posts. It's great.

    When I was looking for a solution for Instagram, neither Buffer nor Hootsuite were offering the ability to post directly to Instagram. That may have changed recently, but in my opinion, Tailwind is a much more user-friendly, less (unnecessarily) complex solution for Instagram management. I don't need a ton of in-depth analytics; I just need to be able to be efficient, consistent and engaging in my posts. Tailwind allows me to do that without getting bogged down in all the bells and whistles on Hootsuite or Buffer.

    • Definitely an ROI - We have increased our clicks on our website due to traffic from Pinterest, primarily from our Smart Loop.
    • We have increased Pinterest following due to our intensive use of Smart Loop, which has led to #1 (increased website traffic).
    • Organization and time management has been a massive advantage of utilizing Tailwind. Because I can set Smart Loop and not worry about it, I can dedicate my time to other areas of the business.
