Top Rated HeyOrca Alternatives
They HeyOrca content planning/scheduling, internal collaboration, and client approval workflows and interfaces are far and away the most functional, efficient, and intuitive of any platform I've seen. It was palpably made by people who KNOW what agencies need -- every button, every feature, is right where you want it to be, right when you need it. All its peers, on the other hand, feel like they were made by business bros -- they promise the moon, but nothing works the way you would actually want it to.

The HeyOrca reporting/analytics dashboard suffers the same weaknesses as all similarly priced competitors. You have no control over which metrics are tracked, the sources and accuracy of data are suspect, and there is no accounting for paid media vs. organic and no inclusion of advertisements (completely non-organic posts).

I like the quick responses and engagement from the HeyOrca team! They seem really genuine and are always helpful
I also like the simple overview for scheduling and the details in the user experience is great! It seems like they thought of everything and are constantly improving still Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think there are minor changes that would improve the experience for me personally; I find the hierarchy roles may be somewhat restrictive, and I also have been wishing for more flexible calendar settings (specifically I would like to change the starting weekday, and display week numbers). I also think maybe moving multiple posts from one date to another could be simplified, it's a slightly confusing process for me personally.
It would be cool to have a notification setting to recieve an email or notice when a post is published for a certain platform or account, so that you can easily see the upload and review the engagement live. These are moreso ideas for future development, overall I think it's very good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that I can share actual creative assets and captions with clients within HeyOrca. Previously, I was using Google docs to copy and paste assets and captions and it really was inefficient. This is an all in one platform - you can schedule, share for approval and get metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there was a way to search for emojis quickly, and save handles oftend used when tagging/collaborating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The integrated features like caption generator, hashtag library, link shortener, plus Canva and DropBox integration. Plus, their customer service is unmatched! They also offer a great newsletter and webinars that help me navigate social media trends and updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Canva integration is a little odd to get used to and it would be nice to add music to posts in HeyOrca. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
HeyOrca is extremely user-friendly and easy to navigate. The customer service is very quick to respond with any questions I may have. The numerous features allow you to customize your experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be helpful to be able to select a thumbnail image when adding a video so the home page doesn't appear black on the client's socials. I believe this used to be an option for Facebook but recently I haven't been able to use this feature. Also it was never an option for Instagram. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Besides the basic scheduling and posting feature, HeyOcra's share and approve content feature is unique and very handy.
I also really like HeyOrca customer support, almost like 24/7 and super helpful.
The team also created the most easy to use platform with webinar and instruction videos.
Plus, their newsletters are amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't think of anything so it's hard to write this one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The most beneficial asset of HeyOrca would be the organization and ease of content creation. As the marketing director for a Destination Marketing Organization, I am constantly having to line up content months in advance. With HeyOrca's Calendar feature, it easily gives me a visual of where content is needed.
I love the tools of time optimization, link shortening, audience narrowing, hashtag library, and more. I use these every day to assist in engaging, intentional, content.
The customer support team has always been excellent and will send you updates on all their newest tools, tips, and tricks. Easy to implement software and very easy to learn.
Thank you, HeyOrca! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'd love it if the time optimization transferred to each day, automatically. If I need to move Tuesday's Instagram post to Thursday, sometimes I will forget to adjust the time optimization to Thursday's target time, resulting in less engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how easy the system is! I love the bulk create feature in choosing all the platforms I want to make a post for, I love that it automatically posts it for me once I schedule them, I also LOVE the scheduling to TikTok feature- HeyOrca saves me so much time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing! HeyOrca constantly updates its features which helps when new tools and resources come out like AI captions and hashtag suggestions based on SEO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was looking for a simple social media scheduler to work with, pretty to look at and fit all of my clients' accounts on one page. I wanted a month-view calendar and HeyOrca had exactly what I was looking for. The customer service is quick and has always helped me figure out any issues I've come up against. I use this platform every day and recoommend it to other social media managers on a regular basis. Connecting HeyOrca to social media channels is simple. LOVE!

The only reason I might not have chosen HeyOrca is the price, but I've learned over the years that you get what you pay for! It is worth the investment, in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the different settings you can put on a post. Working in an agency, it is nice to have HeyOrca's workflow from draft, to awaiting approval, to approve/schedule. I also like the comments on each post for things to change. Managing several accounts and clients in an agency, it makes it easy to handle several accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish that they auto cropped images that do not fit the dimensions. I also wish the automation for video content was better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Deciding to trust HeyOrca with our client's social media schedule was one of the best decisions we've made for our agency. It's rare to come into any issues, and if you do, their support goes ABOVE AND BEYOND. Their webinars are top-tier, and their Facebook page is a must-follow. We especially loved that they involved their users in their growth strategy for the new year. They make it feel like we haven't just bought another software tool but joined a community. Could not recommend more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish we could add trending audio to our posts when we schedule them, but I'm not even sure if that's possible. Which is not a downvote aimed at their capabilities! More to technology as a whole, haha Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
