ContentStudio Software

Social media marketing how I want it to be done

Highly recommended if you want to have a well planned social media strategy that includes both your own content and other content that is relevant for your target audience.

Pros

I've used dozens of social media tools over the years, but all of them have quirks that make them slightly less than user friendly. Some of them seem pretty good on the surface, but then are lacking in key areas. I am pleased to say that when I found Content Studio I found my social media marketing tool of choice.

Content Studio makes it so easy to find and post relevant content. Everything you need is just a click away such as keyword specific research, scheduling, editing posts, etc.

But there is lots more to Content Studio that you only discover as you start to use it proactively, and it is all of those bells and whistles that make this such a highly useable tool.

Cons

There are a few features that I would like to see improved such as the Campaign feature, but I understand that is already in the works. Other than that, this is a superb tool that just keeps getting better and better.

Great product with outstanding supoirt

In one word, Excellent. The team is supportive and creative.

Pros

Ease of use with a multi tiered capability for our social media tied back to our insurance blog. Beyond the product there is an amazing customer support attitude and delivery. They care about their clients.

Cons

IFrane pre sorting would be a great filter to have as many sites do not allow iFrame

Great service and product

Being able to manage my social media from one platform saves me time and money.

Pros

The ease of publishing from my blog RSS feeds to my social media accounts on multiple platforms.

Cons

I would like to see more social media platforms available.But I'm pretty happy with what is available now.

Great tool to streamline your social media management

We are very happy with the system and especially with their very responsive customer support.

Pros

I really like the Chrome addon, that lets you seamlessly share and schedule content from different sources.

Cons

At the beginning, it's quite hard to understand how to plan your actions. They probably need to improve on the documentation.

Best alternative to Hootsuite and Buffer

I am currently using ContentStudio for posting blogs and social media posts. On top of that this application allows me to gather content with the greatest of ease. Posting to many accounts used to be such a schlep, but now I am so efficient at this. May I also give credit to one of their consultants who helped me connect a blog with ease.

Pros

Very useful when it comes to generating relevant content and it the response from customer support is good.

Cons

Not so much hey. With the right coaching and help from the support, You should be shooting from all cylinders.

Powerfull tool

Good support for the product

Pros

Covers a lot of ground, lots of features and good opportunity to automate certain tasks.

Cons

Confusing UX/UI in places which I believe will be addressed in the future.

Better than many more expensive alternatives

Pros

Content curation is part of this SaaS which is awesome! Team has been rolling out new features constantly. WordPress plugin is also a big plus.

Cons

It is hard to say anything bad about this software. Maybe UI should be improved to make it more stylish.

Impressive

Superb content sharing platform and a fantastic addition to our social marketing strategy. Highly recommend!

Pros

I was using this software to replace Hootsuite. It was very intuitive and I was amazed at how much content it found right away. I was able to setup a weeks worth of scheduled posts in less than a half hour. I had a question and submitted it to their help desk. I was amazed at how quickly I got a response, a request for a phone call, which led to screen sharing session. I got a personalized tutorial that walked me through how to enable the features that I was asking about. I am so pleased with this. I also have Replug which enables me to add tracking an CTA links to the content I am sharing which is priceless. That was a key piece we were missing in our social strategy.

Cons

I am still getting to know this software and its many features. The learning curve is not steep but there are many hidden golden nuggets for find. Having a day in the live video series might help to demonstrate all of them.

This is my new favorite tool for managing social media

Keeping two Facebook company pages engaging as well as multiple accounts on Linked In, Twitter and I can use this one for Pinterest

Pros

I love the Automation feature, you can set it up to curate videos and review before you post to your social media outlets, very cool.

Cons

I have not mastered all the features as it has many I have not taken advantage of. If you know how to set up Evergreen for instance, it gives you tons of ways to create evergreen programs

Keeps on getting better

Customer Service is quick and for the small hiccups I've had, they have always resolved them with professionalism and surprisingly would ask me if I encountered certain hiccups I think others may have had just to ensure it wasn't a wide spread problem or to alert to one to look out for. Can't say I've found one, but good to know they are hiding problems. Updates, can't say this enough, but they actually release updates and not just some simple "dark" mode or something silly like that. That's really refreshing to know that they are constantly releasing solid updates to their system.

Pros

The ability to manage xx amount of social accounts, scheduling, all what the application says it can do. I've tried many others that have their strengths yes, but always end up resorting right back to CS. Considering this is a young SAAS and in this tough market they are pushing through.

Cons

Searching for different articles can come up with blanks depending what your searching and you have to go crawl outside of the application for extra content to use. I usually have to do this about 25% of the time as no system is perfect and this doesn't stop me from using it.

Feature-filled lovechild of Buffer, Pocket, and your blog

Oh man, huge time saver, helps the entire content creation/curation management process easy because it's all in one place and organized so intuitively. I thank my lucky stars that I was able to purchase a lifetime membership very early on when ContentStudio was new. Seriously it's the MVP of my content strategy.

Pros

SO many features!

- You can write blog/social media posts directly from within the web app
- Automation for campaigns (new blog posts to social media, article links to social media, sharing articles automatically on your blog, etc.)
- Nice-looking interface. Seriously, it's totally a selling point. It makes it even more fun to create content.
- Ability to schedule posts
- The "Discovery" tab. I could get lost for hours, it's a treasure trove for easily searchable, filterable, postable-from-the-website content.
- Integrations galore! Facebook, Twitter, Pocket, the list goes on. There's also a browser extension.
- Responsive and fun on social media

Cons

I'm extremely picky when it comes to tools I use for business, especially if I really like something, which is counter-intuitive, but there you have it.

- I'd love to see more ability to use the article to blog automation more easily. Example: I have my settings such that systematically, I must review any post before it can be published. If I'm unable to log in for a few days, all the now-expired posts have to be opened one at a time and rescheduled -- click date, click time, click post... that sort of thing. If there was a button that you could click that could re-add those posts for the same schedule, just staggered on different dates in the future, that would rock!
- Occasionally posts will not post, seemingly at random. But this isn't super frequent.

All-in-one social organiser

I truly enjoy using ContentStudio. I have since replaced my other social schedulers with this app and it works pretty well, except for Instagram.

Pros

- Extremely versatile: from scheduling social messages to posting on your blog
- Visually clear and easy to use
- Multiple automatisation options
- Multiple integrations with link-shorteners like Replug or Bitly

Cons

- The platform can be a bit slow at times
- The discovery option is a little limited and doesn't work properly within my niche
- No Instagram integration

Easy to use social media management

I am managing multiple client projects using the software and it certainly makes it easy for me to do so.

Pros

Overall, very easy to use and very easy to navigate. Content suggestions are effective.

Cons

The scheduling feature should make suggestions regarding posting times based on all available data, not just based on posts made by Content Studio. Also, the software should "copy" manually entered scheduled times to avoid the user having to enter each day manually.

A product that make sense and actually works!

Working smart not hard and is intuitive and easy to use.

Pros

It has taken the concept of sharing into a new level between social posting and automations there is a lot to offer. The navigation is easy and most importantly customer service is one of the best that I have dealt.

Cons

As of now I don't have much to complain about :) but since this is a mandatory field I would say more integrations.

Easy to use & Excellent Customer Service.

Pros

That integrates with most platforms and other software, can schedule social media and con curate content from other websites

Cons

Wasn't easy to discover all the features.
Not real hassle, as said before it is pretty easy to use.

Build the content you have dreamed of!

Clear benefits are time-saving and a big variety of content to utilize.

Pros

ContentStudio is the proof that easy content distribution is doable! There is a little learning curve, but here is where the excellent support team comes into play. I had just some questions which could have been answered by chat or email, but I got treated to not one but two onboarding screen sharing sessions. Adil and his team showed A class customer support. During the support sessions, we came up with some great to have functionality but is currently not available. These points were written down to discuss with the team to evaluate for feasibility. Very pleased with that level of interaction. ContentStudio alone is more than worth getting to get your content out there on your social media channels. Combined with their sister companies product, Replug, you have a real powerhouse; shorten, track and optimize your links with catchy call-to-actions, retargeting pixels, branded links and powerful analytics. I advice getting both products as they are beautifully integrated.

Cons

There is not much that I don't like. Integrations with more third parties would be stellar but are being actively worked on as I type. More enhanced team settings, which I requested, are planned as well. Would be nice to have it now already, but that can't be counted as a Con.

It has lots of features I always wanted that is missing in some of the bigger platforms

It saved me alot of time scheduling posts for the week for multiple clients. I can do everything from the one bit of software without having to switch back to other platforms

Pros

I love being able to schedule the same post for different times. Simple things like using emojis that is missing from platforms I used in past like buffer.
Being able to watch keywords for content is also great.

Cons

Would love it to be easier to see your upcoming scheduled posts by page.
Some of the trending content seems to be Asian based.

Good overall product

Pros

I like the connection ability and automation ability as well as the searching feature and ability to post directly to social media or any of your connected websites.

Cons

some limitations on customising team permissions. Some issues when clicking back into the previous screen and takes you to the start screen sometimes.

Mr

It helps me to manage posting to my web properties.

Pros

I like that I can schedule content posting at later times and dates. I like that it can curate content from your topics or trending topics. I like the fact it can post to many of the popular social networks like facebook and twitter ans pinterest. I like that it can post to blogs as well.

Cons

There is a bit of a learning curve but it is intuitive for the most part. They don't have instagram posting yet.

Great product but still contains a few bugs

Eases my content workflow.

Pros

This application is exactly what I need for my business. I get a sense that their suite of products is still veyr new though, as I'm picking up a few bugs as I start to test the product.

Cons

The bugs (obviously) and the customer service has a "live chat" but it can take days for support to come back to you. I think this early stage is where a business like this should increase their support team
