    For a small business or individual Commun.it could be used to quickly and efficiently grow an audience. Using the featured hashtag functionality in particular means that, instead of wading through various searches on Twitter, all the information is at your finger-tips and you can act on it accordingly. I think it would have benefits for businesses of multiple sizes however a smaller business might find the price-point prohibitive.

    Cons
    Commun.it Inc.
    • Be prepared, you'll receive a lot of emails from commun.it. They keep you engaged by reminding you to return to your dashboard. But they also will send several emails trying to get you to upgrade.
    • "Thanks for the retweet" and "Thanks to the high-value members" aren't tactics I like to use on Twitter.
    • On the free version, you are only allowed 20 actions a day. This goes by in a flash, would love to have a few more.

    • The software logs out automatically
    • There should be more options for theme customization
    • I hope SocioBoard soon offers automation for other social media platforms, like TikTok

    Tweepsmap's audience and engagement tools aren't as powerful as Commun.it's, but they're far more trustworthy. I also like their tool for detecting inactive users (followed accounts who haven't tweeted in 2 or 6 months). I would actually consider shelling out for their paid tools, which sound quite useful (for instance, location-based statistics).
