Brandle vs. KUKU.io

Brandle is great for any company that doesn't get a lot of exposure. You are able to use this software as a tool in order to expand your sights on the internet. People are more easily able to access social media, websites, and apps. It also is great to use in scenarios where you want to put your company out there and be more visible to others. It may be less appropriate when companies already have a lot of exposure. It would really just be better for statistical purposes at that point.

If you would like a reliable scheduling tool, KUKU.io is not the one to use. If you like to share lots of industry news, secondary content, or content from your website/blog, be aware that KUKU.io will corrupt the preview headline. You would be far better off using another scheduling tool. I have now changed to a free tool and it has all the same capabilities without this corruption issue. I also used paid ones which are equally good.

• Helping to govern what we do for our social media presence.
• Keeps track of ratings and viewing of our social media, websites, and apps.

• It is easy to use and setup.
• Nice and clean UI
• Great support if you need help or if you have any kind of feedback.

• Sometimes it can glitch on you.
• There aren't many templates.

• io corrupts headlines of articles you reshare. When you schedule a post with a URL in it, the Title of the blog post that is displayed below the picture/preview gets corrupted. So if you add any text in with the URL, that will replace the headline. I have noticed this on both LinkedIn and Twitter.
• Very poor support team. I have found that the support team at KUKU.io are extremely rude, unwilling to help you and take a long time to reply. On some occasions I have had to message them three times in the chatbot for them to even reply. None of these times has the issue been resolved. When I reported to them that KUKU.io was corrupting headlines, at first they refused to take responsibility. Finally, they admitted it was the platforms fault but said they were not doing anything at that time to fix it.
• Analytics are poor. The analytics suite in KUKU.io does not give you anything analytics for LinkedIn. The ones it provides for Twitter you can get directly from Twitter. So no value is added there.
• You cannot tag LinkedIn accounts. I use HubSpot to schedule social media posts which allows you to tag companies at least. KUKU.io cannot.

The support team are extremely rude and often unresponsive. All of the issues I have reported to Kuku has been responded to with "we are not looking to resolve this issue at this time." On a few occasions, they have tried to deny the issue lies with them, before evidence has been provided. Then, they have refused to fix the issue.

Brandle stacks up against other apps and software because it offers many different options. You can choose between different packages and you are able to keep track of the status of your social media websites. Brandle is able to help promote your brand in a multitude of ways and places which is why it stacks up against other brand making apps and software.

I think Buffer is a great service, but I like the simplicity of KUKU.io and the engagement of the people working at KUKU.io

• It has enabled more traffic to come across our website.
• It has brought more follows to our social media.

• Since I am using KUKU.io it saved me a ton of time I am able to spend on other things.
