- I can plan my feed, schedule posts easily, and drag and drop content, which makes managing social media so much simpler.
- The overview also is nice so you can see a birds eye view of where things are at.
- Later is super user-friendly and it is very easy to schedule organic content out to multiple platforms at one time.

### Most mentioned cons

- What I don’t like about Later is that some features (like analytics and hashtag suggestions) they feel limited compared to other tools, and it can be a bit clunky when managing multiple accounts.
- However, the interface is quite busy and cluttered, and certain posts require a little more time to figure out.
- Later's interface is pretty cluttered and a bit overwhelming to navigate on a desktop.

Overall, I do really enjoy Later. I think it's appropriately priced and has great features that many other scheduling apps don't. Most important of all - it allows you to schedule Instagram stories which is VERY important nowadays in social media marketing.

#### Pros

I love that it allows you to post on Instagram stories, which is why I initially purchased a paid plan.

#### Cons

It's a bit tricky to use and not the most user-friendly. I haven't been able to dive too deep into the tutorials but I hope to have time soon enough.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

I needed something that allowed me to post to Instagram stories.

I use Later for my acupuncture client to ensure all of her social media posts are published weekly. I have really enjoyed the easy to use drag an drop scheduler. I used to use Hootsuite but I won't go back due to the affordability and ease of use!

-Integrations with so many platforms including Pinterest, YouTube & Instagram reels which aren't always supported with other platforms - I love the calendar lay out and how I can just simply drag and drop to reschedule posts when needed

#### Cons

I love everything about Later. However, I do wish it supported even more platforms like up and rising social platforms such as Gab.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

I switched from Hootsuite because Later was cheaper!

### Well designed Social Media Management platform with a fatal flaw

- Overall rating: 4/5

- Product usage: Used other for less than 2 years

Overall, Later was an incredible platform that offers some incredible features at a price point that cannot be beat - serving as the primary social media management platform for our team for well over a year. However, due to a lack of customer support surrounding a key feature consistently breaking, we were forced to give up on Later and move to competing products.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Later is an incredibly well-designed platform that offers the best user-interface and planning features I've encountered across social media management platforms. Setting up Later with our Instagram & Facebook accounts was a breeze, as was configuring the platform to fit my specific needs with custom post-schedules, and their visual planner (offering week views, monthly views & even a profile view) - all available at their free tiered platform. Pay a couple bucks a month, and you get access to even more features - such as suggested posting times (truly an incredible feature), video posting, instagram story posting, and team management options (such as Contributors) that are truly unbeatable at the price Later offers them.

#### Cons

While Later's platform was absolutely stunning & incredibly user-friendly, my issue with Later stemmed from the continued issue of Later failing to post scheduled Instagram posts. I will say, I haven't used Later since late 2018 (so this issue may have been resolved); but I was continually dealing with this issue for over 6 months - with a scheduled post failing to post, the Later platform marking the post as "failed to post", and Later refusing to notify me of the failure - despite their fallback feature of notifying the user via the app when a post fails to get posted. With this issue I contacted support, but got given the run-around "Instagram's API" was down (seems to have happened a lot while I was with Later and never when I switched to another platform), so I begrudgingly made the decision to switch to a more expensive & less featured platform that would auto-post to instagram. As I mentioned previously however, this issue may have been resolved in the past 1.5 years since I used the platform.

#### Reasons for choosing Later Social

Originally chose Later over Buffer for the features available and the easier user-interface

Good piece of software that does it's job.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The price point is good, the product is easy to learn and there has been minimum downtime. I can schedule out my social media posts a month in advance which is always a good thing. The biggest reason I choose this software to be able to add a link in bio on every post. Since I do a lot of recipes, that was key.

#### Cons

Until recently, couldn't schedule carousels but that has been fixed. Now can't schedule reels which would be ideal.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

Buffer couldn't give me individual links in bio for each post.

### See Ya LATER, Competing Apps!

Overall, Later's been a great app to utilize. We tried Buffer, which didn't appeal to our experience style. Later's made it easy for us to post on multiple accounts and customize the scheduled posts. Later's helped us maintain a consistent social media presence in my organization's off-season time when our programming is spread out but we wanna show our relevance in the community.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

How easy it is to use, that it's an industry standard, and the extra features in the subscription are actually worth the price. The free version is accessible to people new to social media marketing, which makes it easy for anyone to get social media marketing/communications experience. The interface makes it easy to visualize when posts are scheduled, which photos have or haven't been used yet, and which social networks the posts are scheduled for. On top of that, I love that each post can be customized based on a platform's post guidelines and, if you have different demographics for each network, you can tailor your first caption to whatever audience you're trying to appeal to.

#### Cons

The only issue I ran into with Later is trying to authorize Later to log into Facebook mostly because we have multiple admins on the organization's page. We ended up resolving it by finding out the only person allowed to authorize the two apps to combine info is the person with the email address tied to the Later account. It's a hassle to keep in mind, but a small one that can be relieved easily.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

Later has the user interface and experience that ended up working out for us more.

I love using Later. I think its definitely worth the price, but would like if they allowed a few more users per pricing plan. It is simple, easy, and convenient to use. It really allows you to be in control over your social.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the flexibility it has to post and schedule different types of content for Instagram. I really like that you get a preview of your posts and you can plan them out so far ahead.. You actually get a link you can share of your planned posts so other people can see it. My favorite part of later is that you can post directly to Instagram, it allows you to tag people and tag locations. This software also gives you analytics, allows you to pull content from others via hashtags and searches, and it allows you to add other users as contributors.

#### Cons

I currently don't like that you can't auto publish carousel photos but I think that's more of an Instagram API issue than anything else.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

It wasn't flexible enough and didn't have all the features I needed for the price.

It helps my business save time by posting to Instagram automatically. I block out an hour or two per month and create my content and schedule it with later, so it is a great tool for my business.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

I love the easy set up when you sign up for an account and the fact that it saves you so much time scheduling posts for Instagram! The basic account is also FREE which is amazing! Also, they have a great blog full of valuable content!

#### Cons

I wish it had a way to integrate with more apps, like google drive, canva or adobe. It would just make it easier to create posts and send them over through some sort of integration. I would also like to be able to post to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest etc. with Later, For now they are just and Instagram platform.

#### Reasons for choosing Later Social

I went with both actually. Hootsuite was also not as up to date with Instagram installations. But it was still a time save fr the other social media platforms I use for my business.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

Buffer does cover all platforms, but it wasn't as up to date when I made the switch.

#### Pros

I loved the suggested hashtag feature, saves so much time when posting to Instagram! It's also a very easy-to-use software for scheduling feed posts and stories.

#### Cons

The price for multiple accounts is what has moved me to Facebook Business Suite. With a real estate company, we have multiple agents with social media, and it's too much of a cost when there's a free option for multiple accounts.

#### Reasons for switching to Later Social

I found HootSuite overwhelming and didn't have the tools that Later.com did. The hashtag feature is great and the interface is more user-friendly for beginners.

#### Pros

A useful tool that does not have time and wants to schedule publications on social networking sites, as we know that social networking sites need a lot of time in order to enlarge in terms of interaction and followers, and the secret is that you must be active daily for a year or two after you have a large number of followers and a large interaction after which you can publish Just twice a weekThis is a useful tool that shortens the time and effort, only allocating a week, two weeks, or a month, and scheduling publications for months or years, but you must know the topics required by the followers to analyze and study in order to publish for them exactly what they wantThis is a beautiful marketing plan. This is a nice tool, but there are also better ones. There are several tools. You can publish a post before placing it in order to schedule a description for it, hashtags and reels that can be published, or pictures or videos and stories.

#### Cons

Prices seem expensive to me. I wish they would check the prices so that they target all peopleAnd it provides the ability to create a few accounts and social networking sites in paid plans that appear to me illogical and inappropriate, for example in the Starter plan1 Social Set1 User

I also love the Instagram planning feature that enable my content to flow seamlessly. I also like the Instagram link in bio feature for posts. It helps me to provide links for my blog and other related features on my website.

#### Cons

I do not like the price that I have to pay and wish it was more affordable, especially for low budget companies. They use to initially offer at least 30 posts for all social media platforms on the free plan but took that option away. I would love for them to include that again.

There are so many things that I love about Later! I love how easy it is to schedule posts and change the time and day if something changes. I also love how it tells me best times to post. Another one of my favorite things is the Preview tad that lets me see what my Instagram page looks like and would like with my scheduled posts. It's very helpful because every once in a while I notice two days in a row are too similar.

#### Cons

My least favorite things about Later are not really things that they can control, they are more limitations of Instagram, such as not being able to auto-publish multi-photo posts and stories.

I love that you have the ability to store assets in a content bank and then pull the posts when you're ready to create your calendar. I think the best feature is the visual aspect. Being able to see what your feed is going to look like is really important and a feature missing from any other program I've tried. The scheduler is also great to be used across Tiktok, IG and FB.

#### Cons

The mobile app can be a little wonky. It will send me a push notification saying it's time to publish a post and then there won't be any posts available for me to publish. It also will say it's copied my caption to the clipboard and then there sometimes won't be anything to paste.

#### Pros

We let a different astrophotographer "take over" our Instagram account every day and post three of their pictures to our audience. Later makes this incredibly easy for astrophotographers to queue up their pictures (each of which is interacting with Later for the first time), but still gives us control over making sure they're good quality before we post them.

#### Cons

They have similar functionality for Twitter and Facebook but it's automatically, so it doesn't serve the same purpose for us.
