Innovative & useful link shortener that is also a CTA and lead generator
A fun, useful tool for creating on-the-fly calls to action. I use it every day.
PROSThere are a number of similar services like it but Sniply is the one I keep coming back to, not least because the free plan is still very useful if not as powerful as the paid plans, which I have to admit are kind of pricey. (Backly is my favorite tool of this type but there's no free tier and I'm pretty cheap.) Sniply allows you to shorten a link, share it on social media with a call-to-action overlay pointing to whatever site or product you want. You can also create overlays with retargeting pixels, tracking pixels, and even a lead generation overlay that collects email addresses. My favorite feature of Sniply which I could not find documentation for but just discovered today while preparing for this review: Snipping a YouTube or Vimeo video creates a lightbox over wherever you want your followers to go. In my case, it goes to my film review blog. Closing the lightbox lands the visitor directly on my site. Seamless and very cool. Since I regularly share and write about short films that I find on the web, this is amazing!
CONSSniply doesn't work on all sites but that's to be expected: many sites don't like tools like these and consider their use to be hijacking their original content. In that vein, I try to be careful what sort of links I use with Sniply. If the shared content is directly related to my own and if I'm adding value not only by sharing it but also pointing followers to further discussion about that specific content, then I have no qualms. It's a win/win.

PROSThis amazing software convert any link you share into a call to action overlay that generates more traffic to you website or offer.
CONSThe only problem with Sniply is the monthly pricing structure. I would definitely recommend the free trial first.

Really not a great tool, "snips" look like spam
It can direct traffic from a separate site to my clients in a fairly easy way. customizable CTAs are helpful
CONSit looks like complete spam, and the character limit is incredibly constraining. i only use this because its the cheapest option

Great for adding call-to-actions for curated content on social media
Helped boost user traffic and has provided as an extremely useful tool on social media.
PROSDriving website traffic through external content curation is a unique challenge that Sniply helps solve. The ability to add call-to-actions pointing back to your own website is a great way to drive traffic. Sniply works well with all of the key platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.
CONSSome websites do block Sniply and to my knowledge there is no work around. This is one limitation to keep in mind if you find that links aren't working.

This is an awesome tool for sharing content and branding it
The fact that you can customize the message and call to action button on each post is really great. It gives you the flexibility to create something people will actually interact with. You can also track successes as well.
CONSIt doesn't always work on all sites. Sometimes it just won't be supported but you won't know until you've done all the work.

Amazing for content marketing
I just started using this, but if I had discovered it sooner I would've jumped at the opportunity. Honestly, this is my new favorite app. Fantastic approach for leveraging your social media following to drive traffic and conversions without spending money on ads. And they have a free plan available.
CONSMy number one complaint is that I didn't discover it sooner. I've had a few bumps with things not updating properly, but customer service has been attentive so far and seems interested in solving the issue.

Sniply: Drive Traffic to your Website
In my opinion, everyone should sign up a Sniply account! The free account gives you just enough to start building our traffic in a unique way. We have generated income from the service so we don't mind paying the upgrade plan! Free Sniply only offers email support but once you sign up for a plan they'll provide you with phone and set up support and invoicing.
PROSWhen I first heard of it a few months back, I thought it was just another shortening service. And I already have Bit.ly so I don't feel the need to sign up for another similar service. But luckily a friend told me about this service and how this has helped her to drive the traffic back on her website. After hearing her story I felt a keen interest to take a short trip on how to use Sniply.

Get full use of the main features with a free account!
I like that I have a lot of options with just the free account. I was able to customize as many snips as I needed to point to different targets and with unique messages.
CONSYou can snip most web sites, but not all so it is good to understand that going into it. Also, I was not able to use my Sniply links with Pinterest. Not sure if that had to do with Sniply being flagged or Pinterest just not allowing redirectors. This is just something to be aware of.

A great tool to get your audience back to your page , and to monitor the click rates of visitors.
I like it's simplicity and ease of use. You can easily create a snip that you can use and it's easy to create new ones as well.
CONSI don't like that the snips are not customizable. It's better if the snips can be modified so I can create a more compelling link for the audience to click.

A creative way to drive traffic through curated content
Snip.ly has allowed us to share valuable content from industry experts on social media while granting us the ability to drive traffic back to our website and include call-to-actions. This tool is a great way to diversify your social media content by sharing others content, but still adding your own personalized touch. It is a great tool to help boost website traffic.
PROSIt's an excellent way to add CTA's to curated and shared content. This helps drive additional website traffic.
CONSIt is worth noting that some websites do block services like Snip.ly, but we've only encountered a few of these.

Great alternative to Bitly
So, if you're not familiar with Sniply, it basically gives you the ability to shorten a link, but when people click that link the page that they end up on will also include a call to action, with your logo, with another link that you choose. If that doesn't make sense, just try out the free version. I love Sniply because it allows me to give my brand more visibility, and also let people know, hey, if you like this post, this page, then I've got something else you might like - take a look! Sniply is easy to use, and even the free version is fully functional. If you opt for a paid version you get even more tools and options.
PROSIt's a fun way to let people know about your brand without posting your own content all the time and it's easy to use.
CONSIt doesn't work on all webpages.

Unhappy client
We wanted use free trail to assess if this software is suitable for our company. We decided that is not and cancelled subscription before. We've still been charged for using product, I tried to contact sniply team for refund but without any success, looks like they don't have support team whatsoever. We contacted our bank to stop any further transaction with sniply so hopefully they won't try to take any further payment. I wouldn't recommend this company anyone as if you encounter any problems there is no one to approach...
PROSSorry to say but nothing... website design is fine

Cheapest in its class, 5 Star
While there are tons of Software in this class. One of the cheapest basically free-of-cost software is Sniply its basic feature provides 500 clicks/month, 20 link shorteners per month, 1 brand profile, and 1 team member. While publishing medical research generals software like Sniply comes in very handy. Long URLs can be easily shortened. One of the best features of Sniply which is something very basic and still missed out by all competing software likes Rebrandly, tiny URL, etc is the original thumbnail of media comes rather than the software brand which has shrunk the URL
CONSSometimes URL after shortening does not work or shows an error message This was the major reason for which i had to stop using this product all together.

Great experience, easy to use. Super smart software tool.
PROSI loved how easy it was to use. It was very intuitive. Required no tutorial. Used it on the free trial and it is super clever.
CONSI do not feel the pricing justifies paying for it in my case. Although this might be different for other people depending on their marketing strategy. It is 100% worth checking out on the free trial and seeing the value.

Call to Action Button
I really liked that if I want to share an article with a client or potential client, I can use my website or others to attach to the article so that they can read the article and then click on the button right away and it will take them to the other website without having to enter it in or anything else. It is VERY user friendly and great for customers.
CONSThe least thing I liked about this software was that it doesn't catch typos.
