Very happy with StoryChief

StoryChief has helped us overcome extensive review times with clients. The visual nature of the tool has meant that a client can now "see" what we're trying to achieve with a written piece of content. It's also helped us to think about our content holistically, not only publishing a piece, but how we plan to distribute it.

PROS

The way StoryChief is essentially built/designed in a way that makes sure you're thinking about your content holistically from how its structured (I love all the embed features in the story editor) to the way you have to publish your content. Your distribution channels are right in the tool, making sure you always think about the best way to distribute your content.

CONS

Like most tools, you can schedule a post on social media until it's published, making planning ahead a little tougher.

Vendor Response

Hi Emma Jane, Thanks a lot for your great review! It's great to see that StoryChief has helped you in various fields, and that planning, creating and distributing content is now a smooth process. The rich media embed options are great, right? And they give the blog articles such a nice layout and make them so interactive! Not sure if I misunderstood your message, but it is perfectly possible to schedule a social post beforehand! Reach out to us if you'd like to know how to do this! Happy writing!

Great partner to your Webflow website

PROS

I like that it focused on its main value proposition, once I've set it up for our company website, I no longer need to manage our Webflow-based blog. Our content writing team can do everything on their own. UI is clear and it has wide customization options.

CONS

Nothing I can think of right now. Integration with Webflow requires some technical knowledge, but that's expected. The important part is once you complete the setup process — you can forget about it.

Reason for choosing StoryChief

We used Webflow Editor – native CMS before, but it's not that easy for end-users and don't have many great features that StoryChief offer.

Vendor Response

Hi Alexey, Thanks for your nice feedback! We are indeed proud of sticking to our original value proposition, which is centralizing content and multichannel publication. We always look for ways to make the blog integration as smooth as possible, but in most of the cases this depends on the CMS system. We are always available to help if needed. Thrilled to see that the writers found better accommodation on StoryChief and don't need to access Webflow anymore! Happy publishing!

Complete social media tool

Storychief is an usefull tool to manage your social media calender. For newbies like me it is a task to get to know the tool but the people of Storychief make sure you are up to date. I think this is a very complete social media tool. A powerfull + is the way how you can collaborate, ask for approval or edit your posts.

PROS

I think what I do like the most is how easy it is to invite people that do not have complete acces to storychief, to review your article. They can easily comment and I think that is great.

CONS

Because the tool is soo versatile, you tend to forget how you can use many functions combined.

Vendor Response

Hi Elise, Thanks for your great feedback and for explaining how StoryChief is providing value for your business. Our collaboration feature is indeed one of our gems and we are very proud of it. We will keep on improving this and other features so stay tuned for new updates! As always, a pleasure to help you out if you want to get a training on the tool or have any specific question. Happy collaborating!

Saves me hours every week

PROS

Love how fast and focused I am when I use StoryChief. This is due to the design (no distractions) and speed (eg minimal image upload time) of the software.

CONS

The onboarding lacked a little bit of depth when I joined back in 2018. I ended up with duplicate content on my website and the StoryChief blog but the team were great and solved the issue rapidly.

Reasons for switching to StoryChief

Wordpress was slowing me down everytime I wanted to upload an image but I was still fairly happy with with them. However, when I gave StoryChief a try on a trial basis, I noticed a huuuuge difference in my productivity.

Vendor Response

Hi Joyce! Thank you for the review and thanks for sticking with us for so long, we truly appreciate it! Our support team is always happy to answer to any questions you might have.

International Team Friendly

PROS

The ability for several people to access drafts is a HUGE plus. Being able to comment for corrections and suggestions is great. Being able to post to several platforms at once is also a time saver. Lastly, my team can do social posts from StoryChief which is a HUGE time saver for us.

CONS

If you don't have a project leader or team member who is good at process flows to set this up, it may not be a good tool for you. It's very powerful with the right person on your team. Video isn't yet available for social media posts! But it's coming soon :)

Reasons for switching to StoryChief

It was limited to social sharing. It did not have a blogging content editing and sharing.

Vendor Response

Hi Michele! Thanks a lot for your review. Video is actually available as of right now. Go ahead and try it out!

Fantastic Blog Syndicating Tool

If you log then this is a must have tool. Saves you lots of time sharing your content and also gives you valuable analytics.

PROS

Allows you to create a blog post using their editior and can then syndicate your content across multiple marketing channels. Most syndication apps only let you send the post to your social media accounts, Story Chief allows you to also send to your Wordpress blog for publishing, email notifications to lists of influences you add, send to Medium, social media, and RSS feeds. They also have a cool analytics dashboard to see how people are interacting with your content across the web. I only publish blog posts via Story Chief now. If you are concerned about duplicate content, you can have it post to your blog first and then set the rest of the syndication for any date you wish.

CONS

By default, it selects it's own blog platform as the default main platform for the content, I have to swicth to my Wordpress blog each time to make sure my blog is the main platform. They should fix this but as of today have not.

Vendor Response

Hi Gary! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. You can however, now choose your own main publishing platform. Hope you like it!

The Best Online Tool to Create, Optimise, Collaborate, and Distribute Your Content

PROS

The things I like, -user-friendly dashboard, -team collaboration, -SEO optimisation, -Unsplash image search integration, -Free blog -The ability to publish content to WordPress, Medium and other platforms including social media. There are many integrations and features to make your content creation a breeze. I was waiting for the Grammarly to work with StoryChief and it now does. So, overall a fantastic platform and a great development team. I will recommend StoryChief to anyone looking to create and distribute contents online.

CONS

None so far regarding the platform. The blog feature could be better, the customisation not intuitive, but hey it comes free. So no complaints.

Vendor Response

Incredibly powerful simplicity

I have been really impressed with how easy it is to create and publish content.

PROS

The user interface is very clean, simple to use but really packs a punch for functionality. The guidance for creating quality content, pushed to the right channels with optimised SEO is fantastic.

CONS

It is hard to find anything I particularly dislike; it could be useful to be able to set up templates or have recommendations, but to be honest, it just works as it is.

Vendor Response

Hey Phill! Thank you for the review and the feedback, we will definitely take it with us.

StoryChief is the must have Online Content Creation tool

Love the tool - saves me a lot of time.

PROS

One click publish to all major platforms including. I LOVE StoryChief. - Blog inside my own WordPress Website - Google My Business (Game changer right here) - Facebook Page - Facebook Group - LinkedIn - and many many more integrations. I create my content in StoryChief and I publish in many with no headache. You know what's even better? If I have to edit a previously published content, I only have to edit in StoryChief and boom - StoryChief pushes the update in all the platforms. This saves me tons of time. Thank you for coming to my life. P.S.I have to mention that the team behind StoryChief is amazing and hardworking. They maintain professional communication all the time and work very hard round the clock. Keep it up.

CONS

None at the moment. The team is very proactive and are improving and finding new integration consistently.

Kandola Network's review of StoryChief

Content Management, scheduling posting and understanding engagement metrics.

PROS

StoryChief allows us the ability to real-time view our SEO and readability scores as and when we create content, which is great. It also suggest edits and changes if the scores don't meet the necessary numbers, which is intuitive, a really good tool to have. Planning/scheduling our content is helpful and receiving weekly insights (and on demand) on how our content performed is great too.

CONS

There currently aren't integrations with platforms like Discord and Reddit which are essential for Technology companies. This means that we have some content being scheduled out of StoryChief and the rest on their individual platforms. This also means our engagement metrics and numbers aren't centralised. Website performance is also disparate and on Google hence having to use multiple platforms to actually assess our social media engagement metrics makes it a fragmented experience. The pricing currently only works because we are on a Startup plan, otherwise for it's current features it covers only half of our content management demands and would be very expensive. But the startup plan locks you in for a year which means we have to use the platform. It has a slightly steep learning curve. The platform isn't as intuitive.

Vendor Response

Hi Krithika, Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback and for sharing your thoughts with us and with others. I'm very happy to see that our SEO feature is providing so much value and that scheduling content helps you focus on other matters. We don't have at the moment native integrations with Discord and Reddit, but you can connect to both platforms through Zapier, which is proven to work great for others. Have you already considered this alternative? This would centralise the metrics and insights, making the job even easier! Don't hesitate to reach out to us through the chat in case you want more information about the possibilities with Zapier. Happy posting!

Most impactful software I came across as a Content Writer

I've been using StoryChief daily and it has helped me a lot in my content writing tasks. I love how it shows suggestions and marks the negative points of the write-up. I'd recommend everyone, especially the writers, to use StoryChief. It might bring some positive changes in your works and help you develop your skills faster.

PROS

The SEO and the Readability percentage meter has been the most impactful features of StoryChief for me. I can easily understand what changes shall I bring to my blogs/articles to increase its user readability by tapping on the percentage meter. It also shows the reasons and categorizes according to the error levels.

CONS

One of the major drawbacks of StoryChief, in my opinion, would be that you can't copy-paste any image. Other than that, I like it very much.

Vendor Response

Hi Shabab, Wow, thanks for the detailed feedback. We love seeing that our popular SEO & readability features marked a before and an after in your writing tasks. As for being able to copy&paste an image, we're working on making this possible in the future. Stay tuned! Happy writing!
