Great all-in-one Social media management platform

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It’s a solid tool with lots of features created by people who actually worked in this area. Super intuitive to mange and create posts, specially for those who are just getting into this. First of all features I use the most, is the AI assistant -which is now a must for me- you start writing a quick draft of the text you want, and you can try different tones, formats and rephrase them with a couple of clicks. Second is the live preview, to have that level of accuracy for fine tuning on each social media post is really useful. Another great feature is the synced media library, this one saved me more than once! It helped me reducing daily hours of manual tasks. Overall is a powerful and intuitive platform, very helpful for both, those who are starting and those who are managing large accounts with a lot of content.

Pros

  • Assisting and suggesting different tones for your copy
  • Live previewing the post for each platform
  • Manage the schedule for each post

Cons

  • No free plan, however it has a 14 day try period
  • A little cluttered in low res displays

Return on Investment

  • Easy adapt content to target reducing production times
  • Quick start with none friction helped with the migration from other tools
  • Reliable adn flexible scheduling helped visualizing the roadmap and priorities

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Vista Social is an incredible site that allows you to manage your social media the way you want. You can add your Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and even LinkedIn accounts.

Messages are grouped on the page, making it much easier to manage customer responses.
We can automatically reply to our customers' messages, which allows for great message automation.

I can schedule my posts, which helps me a lot, especially on LinkedIn, where I post many times a day in French, English, Spanish, Chinese, and Portuguese.

The Listening option is great and allows you to find exactly the posts you want.

I recommend Vista Social.

We use Vista Social to manage our client content marketing campaigns from beginning to end. We use it to brainstorn, plan, implement, and track strategic content designed to achieve top results for businesses. It minimized the multiple softwares we were using to just one (Vista Social) and streamlined our processes to make it more quick and efficient. It also saves us time by being an all-in-one marketing tool.

  • Campaign planning - for social media and other types of content
  • Social listening - ability to track hashtags and mentions

Cons

  • Inability to post trending audio (not their fault - social media platforms don't allow 3rd party ability for this data)

Brilliant collaborative platform with clear sections for content ideas analysis and scheduling

Georgia Moule-BettellView profile
Account Manager in Marketing at Social Media Manager Freelance (51-200 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Vista Social is able to solve my collaboration and planning problems within my current role. The availability to assign tasks, as well as set some tasks as a priority, allows me to collaborate with my team more efficiently. I also found that the planning tools on the website was really helpful. I typically use Microsoft Office to plan my social calendar, however the site has its own calendar where it shows different holidays and important calendar dates, as well as giving you the option to add notes on certain days. It is nice to be able to see your month as a whole, and see what you have planned/going live

Pros

  • The design and layout of the site is simple, with the options to click through the different tools on the left hand side of the page. What I liked most about Vista Social is the ability to combine all the different tools that a social media manager needs into one platform.
  • I typically use various different apps and platforms to write down notes, assign tasks to different team members, and look at my overall content calendar for the month. It is brilliant that Vista Social is able to combine all of these into one platform.
  • When first signing up to Vista Social and exploring the platform, each page offers you a walkthrough of all of the tools available to you, which is really handy, as well as a customer support section on the right bottom hand corner.

Cons

  • At first glance Vista Social might look a bit overwhelming, with a lot of different options available, to create, schedule, run reports and analysis across different social channels. However the tutorials mentioned do make this less daunting.

Return on Investment

  • Understanding post performance and working to post more of that content
