We are generally considered to be a social engagement platform (as opposed to a social analytics or social management platform).

In other words, we help enable content to go viral. We are also unique in our ability to identify and recruit authentic fans the help support our clients.

Social Toaster was the first employee engagement platform that we used at Riskonnect - it's the tool that we had when I came on board to lead our Social Media team in April 2023. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SocialToaster?

Amazing platform which enables any organization to build an ambassador program to share your mission, programs with their networks and even get incentives. It's pretty affordable and worth the cost of about $4k as it spreads awareness for your brand. You leave the heavy uplift work to your ambassadors who do most of the work for you and increase your audience followers, donors. They are a community of active advocates for your mission. You are able to target individuals you are trying to gain interest in. They offer video and photo sharing, surveys, reporting, forums. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SocialToaster?

It's about $9000 a year to build the program with incentives for ambassadors but it is still worth the cost. The platform does not allow users to preview what's sent to their networks. I guess they are trying to make it easy for users to post however doesn't make sense. Why wouldn't they be able to customize with their own language especially geared towards their networks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SocialToaster:

Utilize the free demo and online YouTube videos. Access whether your company will benefit from this platform and will you utilize all the features. What audiences are you attempting to reach and where are your challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SocialToaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to have brand ambassadors who are able to do the main work for us and reach out to their networks and spread word about our mission, programs. It's difficult to do this on our own and it's important to increase donor, audience base. We are able to engage different audiences on all social media channels. It's a great tool for outreach on events and other activities. We are able to poll, survey our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SocialToaster?

Social Toaster gives brands a simple way to reward audiences for advocating and sharing content. We've looked for something for years that would make earning points, giving away prizes and encouraging user promotion simple to integrate and use with existing social platforms. The Social Toaster team has been very helpful in providing direction and helping us get set up, and in maintaining the program. They see issues and opportunities and are proactive in helping us improve our campaigns.

When we did a test with our sales team, they were very excited about the platform and how they thought it would work to engage potential and existing customers. It's been a great way to get our advocates sharing our messages, which is often more effective than doing it ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SocialToaster?

My only complaint is that we've had three different account reps from Social Toaster in less than a year. We adored the first; he was so helpful and proactive and knew our account well. Some of the others have been less pleasant and don't know our account as well. I wish we still had our original rep! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SocialToaster:

Make good use of your Social Toaster rep to get the most from the platform, especially if you have an experienced one. Be sure to ask for walk-throughs of how to understand insights, how to update the sites, how to create posts and contests, and all the ins and outs. They are helpful and want to help you succeed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SocialToaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Social Toaster enables us to engage our brand advocates and customers, rewarding them for their participation and advocacy. We have a lot of in-depth, educational content that our audience loves and it needs to get out through the users and not just our own channels. Our content is regularly promoted by our users to their friends, who are more likely to read it and trust the friend who shared.

Social Toaster also allows us to facilitate the acquisition of user generated content. Now we have photos, stories and survey results that we can use to help tell our story and feature our customers on our channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I love about Social Toaster is that they make setup really easy and Social Toaster is always available to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SocialToaster?

The only thing I dislike about Social Toaster is that the design is pretty limited. You have to make your design elements work in a sort of grid of squares that can sometimes be limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SocialToaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am using and have used Social Toaster for brand awareness. The best benefit is getting so much real content that you can repurpose for other things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SocialToaster?

The ability to cross channel -engage our top prospects. The ability to drive engagement through these key users in an authentic way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SocialToaster?

As new social platforms arise, the ability to engage with these platforms will be essential. We're often nervous about the ability to constantly "keep up" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SocialToaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Social toaster has taken a very manual process of weeding through influencers and top prospects and allowing us to move those resources into engagement vs searching out these influencers and contacting them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SocialToaster?

Social Toaster makes it very easy to use advocates to share information about your company/entity. Not only is it easy to send the information to advocates, the user side of the platform is incredibly easy to use. After linking your social media sites, the user is able to use single-button functionality to share the content across multiple social media sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SocialToaster?

I work in fundraising, and due to the company functionality that it was created for, SocialToaster did present some challenges. However, the platform has since been moved into a communications office and is functioning much more properly.

A more specific example of a challenge is the only information that you can have for your advocates is the information that they provide through their social media platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SocialToaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

The major benefit is you're able to easily create and send information in relation to your company/product to a mass audience. As mentioned above, the ease with which advocates can use the platform has proved to be incredibly effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
