ContentStudio Pros and Cons

The centralized social media channel management system, their Ux/UI is clean and modern. It appears that the company has adding more and more features to their platform. As long as they don't segment these additional features under new plans I think their pricing is reasonanle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform performance could be improved. Often the page is not loaded or it takes long time. Also, there is a steep learning curve with Content Studio. It took me several hours to get Instagram posts scheduling to work with Content Studio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that you can have multiple workspaces so you can have multiple brands

Teams and users' functionalities are really well made.

Programming has never been easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was not too fond of the limitation on analysis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ContentStudio is used one of my favorite tools because it integrates socail, blogs, youtube, influencer discovery, social inbox to control all your SM accounts in one spot, and the list goes on and on.

It is the ideal tool for small, medium, and large businesses alike. You can scale this platform quickly and easily to work within any team and tasking! Did I forget to mention it utilizes AI! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, nothing! Content Studio has been outpacing my shortcomings by continually adding outstanding features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a fully functional social media tool with reporting, content generation, and inbox Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think their # tag management and lookup could be developed further Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the variety of content. I source content for clients and this helps me ease some of the extra legwork. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It may not have the specific topics that I'm looking for at times but that's okay as long as it is in the ballpark. I can add to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Upsides:

There's no bloated upsells; what you see (and pay for) is what you get.

The ContentStudio team is extremely receptive to user feedback and often implements top-rated suggestions.

The cloud-based software will keep you very organized and is SO much better than HootSuite as a social media tool.

Tool consistently adds crucial & cutting-edge features to beef up its competitive offerings.

Integrates with WordPress for blog posts, and is great for collaboration among team members with varying roles (e.g. creators, approvers, clients, etc.)

I haven't fully explored the curation tools, but they're definitely promising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downside:

The desktop & mobile apps can be glitchy at times.

You can't yet locate influencers whom you currently work with. I'm not sure how they are sourcing these, but it would be nice to be able to add influencers and manage existing relationships this way.

UI can be confusing at first, but the learning curve is short and it's not crammed together or an ADHD nightmare like HootSuite.

The ContentStudio mobile app is missing some features and isn't updated as frequently as the desktop version.

Reporting could be better. Having tooltips on the methodology/calculation of the native social metrics being used would help determine what discrepancies exist, if any, between goal KPIs and those reported by ContentStudio.

Needs to work on accuracy (there are some discrepancies between metrics like social media hashtag counts and analytics when looking at CS vs. a native platform or another tool like SEMrush. Hence, the previous statement about the metric sources/calculations).

Since it integrates with WordPress, there should be a way to optimize posts attributes (e.g. the meta description, page titles, internal linking, etc.) and/or an SEO API integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Contentstudio is very complete. I real one-stop-shop for your business social media success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a Saas product and many updates are being pushed, but I'm regularly asked to refresh for a new version. Not a big deal, but annoying sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can search for articles related to your niche and plan it out or have scheduled posting for a year plan and you can see it on a list or table format Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You need to reauthorize your connection but its more of social media policy rather than Content Studio Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lifetime license and so many social platforms to run from the one dashboard. Extremely powerful software, while being stupid simple to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That I don't use it even more than I do now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the curated content so you can easily find the right information for your followers. It has a fast process, so you have a few minutes per week to plan and schedule your posts. It can post to various social media sites, and at the same time, you can adapt your message to each platform. You can have multiple workspaces for each brand or project. It offers an automation tool and a very nice analysis of your content posted per platform. They added an inbox, so you can now answer your followers' comments directly from Content Studio. Overall, it is an excellent tool that I use for more than 2 years, and it keeps getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are some bugs, so your posts won't process. I wanted to add some YouTube links, but Content Studio couldn't retrieve the information from YT. Another bug that is there for some time is the Insta Notification on the iPhone app that does not work. I feel that content from more important publishers could be added to the curated content.
