Top Rated MeetEdgar Alternatives
I love that you can setup campaigns to recycle content on a custom schedule. The schedule is visual and you can see what category of content is going to go out and when. The queue is easy to manage and add content. It also pulls in data from my website's news feed to make it easy to remember to create posts for it. I love that it will analyze the copy on a link and come up with suggestions for posting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a bit of a learning curve on setting the schedules and I do have to tweak periodically. I also find it frustrating that I can't customize the content across platforms in one post. For example, if you want to tag twitter handles in a post, you can only set that content to go on twitter. You have to do a separate post for the other outlets.

Nice software, but inferior to others and crappy customer service

MeetEdgar has allowed me to show up on social media in a consistent way without having to be "on" every day. I like that I can schedule some content to stay in my library and show up again over time for platforms that have a quick turnover rate but keep other content scheduled for a single upload for sites like Pinterest where the content lifecycle is much longer. It's flexible and intuitive and it's been extraordinarily helpful for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At this point MeetEdgar, similar to most other scheduling software, has some posting limitations for Instagram (such as posting reels). I'd love if Instagram could work with these services to allow consistent scheduling opportunities across the different types of posts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that I can schedule my posts to social media in an organized way without actually being on the platform. It helps minimize distractions and get my content organized into catagories and dates that make the most sense for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that their used to be a link shortener included with the service and now it is not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I initially thought MeetEdgar wouldn't be useful in our current workflow, but our Customer Success who joined us for a Google Meet call, a wonderfully kind woman named Sophie, walked through my rather particular and individual questions in a way that made me reconsider!
I'll definitely be using the free trial and be attempting to integrate this into our workflow now! Thanks Sophie! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Unintuitive UI, Inky Credits, and limited social integrations.
Nothing that can't be solved with Zapier or elbow grease however. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best feature of Meet Edgar in terms of social media planning is that you can set up queues of social posts that will "repeat" automatically. So, for example, if your business posts the same type of post every Monday - such as a motivation Monday post - you can load 52 posts into Meet Edgar, and each year it will automatically run through your posts again. I briefly used Meet Edgar at a job before switching to Sendible, which also has a repeatable queue option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When my company was using Meet Edgar, it was extremely expensive. It was more than $400 for an annual membership, and we were only using it on a couple of social media accounts. It was much more expensive than other social media schedulers. It's possible, that my company wasn't using it to its full potential, but at least for the needs we had it was very expensive relatively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ability to set it and forget it on the evergreen social media posting by far the most. Has created the ability to set up different sections to program separately, for example, a set just for monday posts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Price is by far the biggest turnoff from regular use. The second is that repetition can be a bit much until you have built quite the library. And you will also need to understand social media marketing to understand what to post Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Until I can hire a social media manager, this helps keep content flowing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is expensive for a solopreneur. I have found that I forget to go in and change content and then stuff comes up on my page that is the wrong price, time, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Super easy to use. Fantastic resources (like the MeetEdgar University). Support and help are quick and actually care about you as a customer. Highly recommend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing. It does everything we need/want it to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the fact that Meet Edgar can set the best time to publish for each different type of content that you add. The ability to create posts quickly and easily, add images or take posts. It reduces time spent curating posts and republishing old content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing I do not like about this software. I prefer it compared to its competitors that are in the same price range. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
