Great Value for Great Features

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sendible for our social media management and Google Business management across 13 clinics. It helps us with keeping our communities we serve up to date with mental health news as well as events, outreach, and what has been happening with the company. Managing this without Sendible would be challenging due the amount of profiles we have with our Google Business profiles.

Pros

  • Google Business Management
  • Social Scheduling
  • Profile Management
  • Efficient Link Sharing

Cons

  • File Upload Smoothness
  • Reporting is simple, but ineffective with total engagement metrics with Linkedin
  • Profile Connection Stability.

Return on Investment

  • Has allowed us to connect with our communities.
  • Increased work site efficiency and productivity and allowed for more physical outreach at events vs. using native platforms for scheduling.
  • Saw a 20% jump in followers and engagement across Facebook and Instagram.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I used Sendible to schedule my social media posts onto multiple platforms with the greatest of ease. I would often schedule a full year out (i.e. holidays, office closures, annual sales) to make life easier as a small business owner. Many of the platforms limit how far in advance you can schedule in advance putting more of a burden on the need to constantly update. I love that Sendible offers flexibility.

Pros

  • Advanced Scheduling
  • Cross-platform posting
  • Extremely easy to navigate and create posts
  • Superior support

Cons

  • Ability to make 1st comment on a post on all platforms.
  • Ability to respond to SM posts through the portal
  • Link to customer reviews like Google

Return on Investment

  • It allows me time to focus on other areas of my business.
  • As a planner, I love that I can sit and bulk load SM posts; while keeping the flexibility of a spontaneous posting too.

Getting Social on Sendible with a Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I switched from OneUp to Sendible mainly for the White Label capabilities. I chose Sendible because it supports Google My Business—a crucial platform that many others overlook—and adds even more value by connecting to WordPress, TikTok, and Pinterest. Sendible has made me social media expert which my clients can count on.

Pros

  • Organize social media and make scheduling easy.
  • Storing content libraries
  • Managing hierarchy of users

Cons

  • Expensive
  • It's not there fault but the API and social platforms limits all of the features
  • Would like to see hashtag recommendation tool
  • Overall Engagement Reporting does not make total sense

Return on Investment

  • It helps my business, to manage my clients social media.
  • However I was hoping to capture more people who want to use the tool as DIY which has not happened.
  • I do not want to let it go but it is currently more of an expense then bringing in a return.

Value for money social media management

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sendible is used to schedule social media posts and includes an approval process, ensuring junior team members can not post direct to social media without the content being checked and approved. We also use Sendible for social media reporting and analytics. I had a marketing intern complete an in depth comparison of a range of social media scheduling tools on the market and found Sendible offered the best value for money given my requirements. Other tools were superior in particular areas, however my primary requirement was for a scheduling tool that would manage routing content to multiple approvers for content related to different topics. Sendible provides this functionality extremely well with user management features that allow me to control access to profiles and functions at a user level. It is very simple and efficient to seek approval from the correct team member. The approver can easily approve, edit or reject the proposed content. We also use Sendible to create a monthly social media report, tracking engagement and likes / follows across multiple platforms for multiple accounts including Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and pinterest.

Pros

  • Social media scheduling
  • Approval process management
  • User profile management
  • Creation of content for multiple platforms

Cons

  • Management of commenting and messages
  • Analytics and reporting
  • Sentiment analysis

Return on Investment

  • ROI hasn't been measured, however Sendible has provided time savings
  • Sendible has reduced risk with controlled access to profiles and an approval process.
  • Sendible has allowed us to post more content to more platforms with existing resources.
