Buffer Reviews & Product Details - Page 37

I love the consistency of posts throughout my social networks. I'm able to post close to the same thing in all of my social networks I really love the scheduling feature, so that I can schedule all my posts for the week in one day and then be free to just interact with clients.

I can't think of anything that I don't like about it. It's a great program and it's been a pleasure to use it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to use. Me and my team scheudles all our social media posts going out from FB and Twitter using Buffer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For running a small enterprise you'd need to get into a paid tier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I like best about Buffer is that I can initiate a social media post from the webpage of the content I'm currently reading. This distinguishes Buffer from other platforms like Hootsuite. My second favorite thing is the ability to schedule social media postings across platforms. And since I manage multiple accounts, I like the ease of scheduling everything from one dashboard.

Buffer was AWESOME until Facebook created the rule about original images only and Twitter disallowed scheduling the same tweet across multiple accounts. I wasn't a spammer -- I just managed multiple accounts with a similar focus. And the Facebook image thing is proving a nightmare since some unsophisticated sites don't have the right image showing up automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoy that there are multiple social media platforms that I can use through this platform. They are easy to connect to and manage. I really lik that they offer a free membership that you can essentially stay with forever. However, as you grow you will find you do need the additional services. The good thing is that there are lots of upgrade options that range in price.e Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was having a lot of difficulty with automatic publishing. When I requested additional assistance I was pretty much told to figure it out myself (it was said professionally but not very helpful...what's the point of 'contact support' if they don't actually assist you). The pricing to upgrade also jumps drastically for the different packages. if there was just one think in another package you needed it can increase your fees a drastic amount.

Scheduling and retweeting. Mobile and desktop access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The article recommendation feature went away Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They've added the ability to schedule video content on social channels. The analytics for each piece of content and the ability to easily tweak and reshare for evergreen content is extremely helpful.

For accounts with up to 8 channels, the price is extremely affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wish it had the ability to schedule IG stories. I see this as something they will hopefully add down the road. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is fairly easy to set up, the updates can be set for all the media. You can also set different times for the same post for different media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can onlu schedule ten updates on a free plan. When you change scheduled updates to the new post material, the other posts don't push forward. When you change schedule, it creates a mess.

The hushtags and other info has to be retained in other places, you have to cut and paste it every time.

Platforms such as FB and Instagram require separate texts, because the limits are too different.

On the FB it actually says "posted by Buffer". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because of the way Instagram is set-up, there aren't many options when it comes to scheduling. Luckily, Buffer offers a great solution to pre-schedule photos (and video) to Instagram, and then posts them or sends a push notification to your phone to manually post.

I like that you can also edit a post for each individual social network. So, instead of crafting multiple different posts for each channel, you can create one post, and then specialize it for each (adding different hastags or network-specific language e.g. retweet vs share).

Buffer is best use to manage a single brand. The limited number of profile connections mean you can't easily manage multiple brands. Additionally, when you begin a new post, the app automatically selects all connected accounts. Though these can be deselected, the default can lead to accidental cross postings or other issues.

Buffer makes it really easy to manage numerous social media accounts, which is helpful for businesses trying to grow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that the free version allowed users to schedule more than 10 posts in advance. Small companies don't always have the budget to upgrade to the paid version, and only being able to schedule 10 posts isn't ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can spend a single day uploading posts, and not have to worry about timing the rest of the week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I could upload directly to Instagram from buffer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
