    I am responsible for responding to all reviews that are submitted for our company. We have over 200 locations and it would be time consuming to have to check each of these GMB profiles individually. Chatmeter provides a one-stop solution for quickly and efficiently managing our online reputation.

    SOCi is a fantastic tool for a franchise business because it provides the ability to post in bulk while also posting localized content. So, you can share the same basic content across all of your locations, but SOCi's tagging system inserts a location's phone number or website for each individual location. This helps create a localized feel and personalized touch -- but you only schedule one post, making it easy and efficient to localize content in mass posting. This principle applies to paid ads as well. Because of these features, SOCi may not be the best platform for companies with just one location

    Cons
    Chatmeter
    • The AI response tool is helpful, but should not be used without tweaks.
    • Some review platforms do not allow responding from within Chatmeter.
    • The social dashboards are not up-to-date with relevant metrics. Some posts show zero engagement when in reality, it has over 100 likes and 30 shares.

    • Their analytics are sub-par to other tools that I use.
    • Their website can be a little clunky until you learn to navigate it.
    • It takes a long time to be fully on-boarded and running on the platform with all information syncing together.

    It's great overall. There's a few areas where improvements could be made. I've been pleased with the updates we've seen since we started using Chatmeter several years ago.

    There are some aspects of the scheduling of posts that could be more user friendly for the less tech-savvy users.

    We have not had to contact support so there is nothing to say in response to this question. We are sure that if we needed to contact them we would be able to get any issues resolved quickly

    Before we decided to go with Chatmeter, we looked strongly at Reputation.com. This was several years ago, so I am not as familiar with how they compare now, but at the time we felt that we could get the functionality we wanted and needed from Chatmeter at a better price than Reputation.com.

    Soci is a lot better. It’s more user friendly and it makes better for one platform to have all my accounts on
