Ambassador
Should be used by organizations to promote business and bring in new customers, particularly the ones with a bigger customer base. It may or may not be used by small businesses as the data is not too much to store, however, I recommend using it anyway as it will save time and, in turn, let you do more for your business.

TapInfluence is a great influencer marketing tool that has made lives so much easier and
therefore I would recommend it to everyone to use it because of its great
database search function which makes it an optimal option for users. It should
work towards their customer service support so that all users do not have to go
through any problem. If you are ready to get hands-on the functions then the
only condition is that you have to be willing to pay the hefty price too which
I feel is a little outrageous.

Tapinfluence
  • I love the automation in this influencer connection service. TapInfluence has an automated process in which it recommends influencers who can do very good publicity for my business sector. This feature is very important to me since in this way the advertising will reach people who will really take that information into account because it is of interest to them.
  • The main panel of TapInfluence has divisions where I can see all the influencers who are working for me, in addition, in this individual panel I can know all the advertising that each of the influencers has done and see what traffic that advertising has generated, I can know the views that advertising has had and the clicks it has obtained. It is very important to be able to consult all this data from the main panel, so I can know what performance each influencer is giving me.
  • TapInfluence offers me a very stable communication service, where I can constantly converse with each of the influencers who work for me and with the influencers that appear in my "recommended" window.

  • It is also crucial to understand the cons associated with TapInfluence so that the overall software can be improved in a much better way. In my opinion, TapInfluence should give a considerable amount of attention to their customer support service as it needs to get a lot better.
  • Software like TapInfluence should be very easy to use due to its intuitive interface but I feel that here it is difficult to use especially for beginners.

Usability
Ambassador
It is very user friendly, all options and features are easily accessible. Support material is readily available to help out with general queries or frequently asked questions. The software's customer-facing end does not require any special training or skills to use it to its full capacity. In short, it is easy and good looking.

I have not yet faced any issue while using the features of this service. But whenever I needed help with anything, I've gotten a satisfying response in terms of resolution and response time. I am sure I will get the same response when there is an issue that needs immediate attention.

I have not used too much software for the said purpose, but in comparison to the ones I have used, this one seems to be the most user-friendly and intuitive to use. That's the whole idea when you are paying for software: to cut down on admin work and save time.

I have not used anything like it, but I would choose another if it had the same functionality or similar and at a lower cost.
