Tailwind streamlines the process for staying active on Pinterest with the least amount of time and effort. Though there are definitely ways the platform can improve, it is still the best option for Pinterest managers to optimize their clients' presence on the platform, increasing both engagement and ultimately more sales.
Pros
Scheduling Pins
Spacing out repins
Cons
In my opinion, Tailwind likes to introduce features no one asks for, while failing to address glitches with it's core functionality
Return to their core use
In my opinion, the Tailwind interface is not very user friendly and experiences glitches frequently

I think Tailwind is best for ecommerce based businesses and bloggers. In my experience, it is the best platform for scheduling pins to optimize traffic and sales to websites. However, I have seen limited success for location-based businesses where foot traffic is the goal (such as Museums, event venues, parks, and other places of interest).

We used it at the request of my vendors to have a Tailwind account to post to Pinterest. However, they seemed to have a lot of problems and missed posts that had to be then rescheduled. They also have a pin-developing system, which no one used as it was poorly designed, and they told me it was useless. The AI they also never used as it was useless, so it was just used as a way to schedule posts, so you're paying a lot of money just to schedule posts to Pinterest.
Pros
schedule pins mostly at times you set but not perfect
reschedule the pins it missed when you manually reset them
Cons
non intuitive platform, poorly designed and poor information
design system is useless and none of my vendors used it it was so bad.
expensive as it was just used for scheduling pins.
AI is a waste of time and you pay for something that is useless
no refund policy. Once you pay they will never refund.
They say they send a reminder 30 days before you resubscribe but that was not the case and I see lots of people have this same issue
Support is atrocious lack understanding not just of there own platform but of what customers are using their platform for.
Unethical company. Even when you cancel they still charge you.

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.

We use Tailwind to schedule our Pinterest and Instagram posts well in advance. We also use it to collaborate with other business owners, bloggers, and influences to find unique and relevant content that our followers would enjoy and to share our content, that may be relevant to other businesses, in the same niche. Tailwind allows us to provide fresh and relevant content on a continual / regular schedule - something you can't always do when you are scheduling manually the day of.
Pros
Tailwind posts all of your scheduled "Pins" on Pinterest as "new" pins.
Tailwind provides appropriate, popular, and relevant hashtags when you schedule an Instagram post.
Tailwind's development team listens to its users and they are continually looking for ways to improve and optimize their platform.
Tailwind provides a lot of good tips and information on their YouTube channel about the best way to optimize your Pinterest account, and their application makes it super easy to do.
Cons
Occasionally Tailwind's load time is slow. If you have a large number of pins saved in drafts scrolling through the content and pages can be time-consuming.
Tailwind provides an amazing opportunity to collaborate with other bloggers, writers, business owners, influences, etc. through their "Tribes." However, the built-in chat feature, through which you communicate with fellow Tribe Members, can be hard to follow and keep up with -- so we oftentimes miss important messages from fellow tribe members.
If you're like us and want to check the link for every single pin that you "repin" to ensure you're not sending your readers to spam... it can be very time consuming because you have to make multiple clicks from within the scheduler to find out where the pin link directs you.

Tailwind is perfect for users who want to grow their Pinterest or Instagram accounts. It is well suited for the person who likes to collaborate, plan ahead, schedule your social media in advance, and share your content with other users. It's a win/win for everyone involved. I can share content, provided by other tribe members, that I know my readers and followers will love and enjoy - which will keep them coming back for more. Likewise, I am able to share my content, and hopefully have another blogger or business owner, whose readers may enjoy and appreciate my content, share my content as well. Tailwind is really perfect for businesses or all sizes... even more appropriate for the 1-man-show who is trying to schedule it. Tailwind is lies suited for those who aren't tech savvy as some general teach savviness is required.
