A Simple, Feature-Rich Social Media Posting Tool
We use Oktopost across all of our media outlets to help schedule and manage different social media campaigns.
It has helped us to keep all of our social media accounts in a single place and allows us to better view and manage different campaigns which allows us to keep better track of how each program is doing and how each outlet is performing overall.

- Oktopost has a great interface for publishing posts, allowing you to select multiple social media profiles and easily schedule a message across all of them.
- Oktopost tracks your performance and has an automated tool that will schedule posts for you based on when past posts performed best and it works pretty well.
- I like the ability to create multiple campaigns easily and quickly. The whole interface is very simple to use and streamlined.
- I think the interface navigation could use some better explanation of what everything is, but it is still easy to use once you are used to it.
- There aren't a ton of issues I've had with Oktopost. It really does what I needed it to do.

save yourself a headache !
Oktopost was used by the strategic marketing team - mainly about 5 of us on the digital subteam. We were responsible for social media posting across the company - utilizing mainly Twitter and LinkedIn but occasionally on Facebook.
It was used only by our team but we posted on behalf of the company handle, so the use was widespread. It addressed the business problem of low social engagement and disjointed efforts across multiple handles that had been randomly created and rarely used by certain departments.

- An all-in-one platform that organizes all content across multiple accounts.
- Provides consistent user experience help, representatives were quick to schedule phone calls or walk-throughs whenever we had issues.
- Easily accessible by the entire team, don't have to rely on one person to do everything or avoid being in the platform simultaneously.
- Sometimes there were bugs in the user experience, but they seemed to be quickly addressed.
- They didn't seem to have experience dealing with large-scale company use when integrating with Eloqua information. We had a lot of issues with false data or form submits showing up.

Oktopost is a business-centric social engagement platform that provides organizations with the capability to listen, learn, and share on leading social media networks from a single web-based interface delivered securely via a SaaS model.
At ComplexDiscovery I am using Oktopost as the core social engagement platform for both my organization’s social media engagement (Corporate Communications) AND for client social media programs (Agency Model).
Having utilized multiple social media platforms with capabilities ranging from individual B2C support to agency B2B support, I have found Oktopost to have the best balance of functionality and focus.
Key functionality that influenced my decision to select Oktopost includes:
1) Social Network Support: Currently All Four Primary B2B Networks
2) Multiple Account Management (Across Accounts And Networks)
3) Ease Of Access (Intuitive Interface, Ease of Use)
4) Dynamic Scheduling (Manual and Auto Scheduling Capability)
5) Robust Analytics (General and Specific Analytic and ROI Information).
Oktopost effectively addresses my need for:
1) Reach
2) Usability
3) Metrics
4) Affordability
- Autoposting: Allows users to easily schedule messages to multiple networks and social profiles. This was the capability that led me to Oktopost as its ease of use and comprehensive calendar view allowed me to manage complex social media programs in a time efficient manner.
- Integration: Allows users to integrate social media efforts with key marketing/CRM platforms to include Act-On, Marketo, Eloqua, and SalesForce. Integration allows users to translate metrics into actionable information for shaping all marketing efforts.
- Social Streams: Ability to view and act on all social media networks and individual user profiles allows users to manage all social media activities from within a single web-based browser environment.
- Content Curation: Integration with Feedly coupled with strong search capability allows users to discover and curate top trending topics from across the web.
- Advocacy Board: Unique capability that expands the use of Oktopost across an enterprise by allowing invited colleagues to share trusted content created and shared within Oktopost.
- Advanced Metrics: Detailed metrics provides users the ability to translate activity into understanding. Intuitive reporting function also allows for the creation and sharing of professional reports with clients and users.
- Increased integration with supported social networks and expansion of support beyond current supported networks.

Oktopost Perfection!
Score 10 out of 10

Oktopost has made our social media program execution possible utilizing the least amount of resources possible and yielding a very high level of returns. It's usage is intuitive and constantly being tweaked (improved) in a common sense approach. Oktopost allows us to use it as a shotgun or with surgical precision. The program allows us to meet the goals of specific programs without the resources "other" competitive programs require. I have found the customer service to be responsive and actually really nice people (I don't get that feeling from most company's customer service people who usually are reading from a script). The program does exactly what I want it to do at a price that I feel is fair.
- LinkedIn group submittal
- Tracking conversations and a dashboard to respond rather than searching and hunting to make responses
- Good customer support
- Make Google (G+) allow personal submitals through Oktopost. Let me make this clear, this is NOT an Oktopost problem, this is a Google problem!! But I put this down here because it is the only missing link to creating a total social media tool kit.
- When I first started there were very few support documents and learning resources. I think I was one of the first to sign up. Since then they have clearly been working on filling the learning center with information. Keep up the good work!
- The emails that start off with "My name is Mark Lerner, Director of Marketing at Oktopost.... ;-) Mike 50 emails later I know who you are. Introduce the wife and kids next please ;-)

We use Oktopost to manage the automation of our Twitter and Google+ posting. It is being used by our editorial staff. It allows us to be more efficient and effective in managing our social media presence.
- The Message Asset and Autoposter feature are hugely useful for broadcasting content at different times. This allows us to reach our entire audience on Twitter and Google+, rather than just sending messages once.
- The support is outstanding. Anytime you have a question, it WILL be answered.
- The reporting feature has had a few bugs, but they were quickly fixed once pointed out.

Oktopost is a must for B2B social marketers

- Convenient post scheduling to all platforms, along with batch submissions to LinkedIn Groups.
- Social media lead generation monitoring.
- Lovely user interface with all of the information you need and none that you don't.
- The social inbox gives you a convenient dashboard for managing responses across all platforms — including replies to LinkedIn Group discussions.
- It's a little bit difficult to set up the social leads function.
- I wish the analytics dashboard was a bit more intuitive and robust.

Great for B2B Social Media Management

- Publishing and scheduling though Oktopost are very easy, whether it is a one-off post or an entire campaign.
- SFDC and Marketo integration - leads generated from social media are pushed right into our other marketing and sales tools.
- The listening in Oktopost is lacking; we are only able to track conversations that we have initiated.
