Oktopost Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oktopost to share my company posts on Linkedin. I have access to a board with already prepared posts, and I share them on LinkedIn, choosing a "share now" or a "pick up date and time" or a very nice feature called "automagically share." This is very useful to share my company stories with the audience.

Likelihood to Recommend

Oktopost is a good platform that allows users to easily share company stories across the web, particularly on social media sites like Linkedin. Still, some areas could be improved to make it a stronger recommendation, like multi-platform scheduling (I can only share the stories on Linkedin).

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I was trying to find a tool to fully manage and optimize social media to drive my business forward in a scalable and measurable way. The tool is easy to use and I didn't need any onboarding or extra training. Through Oktopost I could manage all my social media across all channels and I can easily track my pieces of content.

Likelihood to Recommend

The product is very easy to use. And the features are very good. I have not experienced anything less appropriate. It works as I expect and empowers me to be a better promoter of my company's social media which is directly tied to our company goals. It functions as expected and I would not change the user interface.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oktopost across all of our media outlets to help schedule and manage different social media campaigns.

It has helped us to keep all of our social media accounts in a single place and allows us to better view and manage different campaigns which allows us to keep better track of how each program is doing and how each outlet is performing overall.

Likelihood to Recommend

Oktopost is great if you have several Social Media profiles you want to manage and want to schedule and post all your things in a simple interface. They have a great calendar view that shows everything that is coming up and you can easily move or change postings with a few clicks.

It is also good for managing a single account. It has all the features I need for our single account markets, like campaigns, tracking, scheduling, etc.

I think if you are trying to manage a very large number of social media profiles it might get a bit difficult. There are tools more suited for that than Oktopost that may be easier, but Oktopost would still work.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We recently deployed it and rolled it out to a small subset of the company- top influencers. We had another solution previously but wanted a richer gamification experience for the users and also integration to marketo and more thorough analytics.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's hard to say right now, we're a medium sized business and it seems like a great fit for us. Not sure of the scale to a large enterprise.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oktopost for content curation. It helps us simplify the posting of valuable content for our clients. We also use the Feedly, Startafire, and HubSpot integration. Another important element for us is the employee advocacy board. Now all of our staff members use it, and that has helped drive engagement.

Likelihood to Recommend

I think Oktopost works really well for teams or for companies that want to get their staff evolved in their social promotion in order to drive traffic. It's ideal for B2B companies, and I would say that you can't do most of the things oktopost offers with any other social management tools.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Oktopost was used by the strategic marketing team - mainly about 5 of us on the digital subteam. We were responsible for social media posting across the company - utilizing mainly Twitter and LinkedIn but occasionally on Facebook.

It was used only by our team but we posted on behalf of the company handle, so the use was widespread. It addressed the business problem of low social engagement and disjointed efforts across multiple handles that had been randomly created and rarely used by certain departments.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's well-suited when used by a team who is actively engaged in social media presence and sees the value of an all-in-one, team-accessible solution. It's helpful that it serves as a scheduler but also can provide detailed analytics.

I would avoid the product if it's a Hail Mary to get executive buy-in or engagement on social media - I think it just confused people who weren't already familiar with how social marketing works and they became disengaged and never used it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Oktopost to schedule, distribute and analyze all of our social media posts. I personally set up the account(s) and our profiles. We also use it for event promotion. The integration with Feedly is perfect for us, because we produce so much original content and I can find it all in one place.

Likelihood to Recommend

We had over 50 social media accounts to set up and had to choose which ones we were going to leave out. If you have as many accounts as we do, it's worth the incredibly high price tag (I just noticed they hiked the prices substantially). If you don't have that many accounts, you need to do the math to see if it makes sense for you. $400/month for the basic service is steep. There are many less expensive platforms available.

Likelihood to Recommend

For systematic management of multiple accounts and individuals across multiple social networks in B2B and B2C environments, it is a preferred social engagement platform. If a user has decided they need a program vs. just a posting capability, they should consider Oktopost.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We're using Oktopost to manage client's social profiles, to tweet, retweet, share updates on LinkedIn groups and client's personal and company accounts and Facebook. It's used by our social media strategist and account managers.

Likelihood to Recommend

I believe Oktopost is well suited for an in-house social media manager, as well as for large agencies.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Oktopost is the main social distribution platform with which we work on behalf of almost all of our clients. It allows us to promote for our numerous clientele in an automated manner that is user-friendly and has trackable stats and conversion reporting.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is most suited for businesses that require a medium to high level of promotion and distribution and where tracking is required. It is also very suitable for campaigns that require lead tracking and conversions.
