Joomag is an ideal solution for anyone seeking to create or publish a highly visual and interactive presentation. The possibilities are endless! You can create anything from a periodical, employee handbooks, sales materials, catalogs or brochures. Those looking to monetize will find it simple to do so and the subscription tool is a no brainer for lead capturing. The storage space is limited by plan so attention to your usage is essential.

Pros

The monthly calendar view gives me a broad overview of all the content we have in production.
The notes section within each blog topic helps me keep an organized list of items or links relevant to that topic.
The headline analyzer gives me another option to test my headline before publishing, to see how it scores.

Cons

Would like to replicate some of the functionality of Buffer (sharing other content easily from multiple sources) to consolidate our marketing calendar in one place.

CoSchedule 9.0

Based on 2 answers

I didn't have to use their official support, but I can say that they put out a lot of content online to help users. Their YouTube page has quite an array of tutorial videos explaining how things work and how to get the most out of their tools. If you're struggling, before picking up a phone or blasting off an email, try searching for your problem on YouTube or their forums.

Joomag 10.0

Based on 1 answer

Outstanding support! The chat feature works great, I always get a fast response and they are relentless! Add to that the Joomag Academy, Blog, Case Studies, and White Papers, there is always an answer to a question and we've had some complicated ones over the years. You are never left wondering; they have a great customer communication system in place.

CoSchedule provides collaborative planning of projects. The calendar view is very well designed. Meetings and tasks can be scheduled and tracked easily. Whatever is being done, no matter how big the task/project is, it gives a bird-eye view of everything. Additionally, it also integrated very well with WordPress. Their customer service team is also very helpful.

We've looked at platforms like Issuu, ReadyMag, and FlipBuilder and none of them stack up to the total solution that Joomag offers. It's rich with features for branding, sales, tracking, conversion, and lead generation; it truly is a one of a kind, all in one solution for the digital publisher.

Return on Investment

Probably too early to tell for certain but it is definitely value priced right now. Fully developed content management platforms are running in $15-$20k per year range and more. You can get into a CoSchedule solution for $
Team has found it easy to sign on and review tasks so this is a big time saver. More could be done to enable Guests easier access to content they need to review
It's way faster that other scheduling apps we have tried. The fact that it runs on a cloud based app or inside your Wordpress app is a real plus. Auto save feature also means you don't have to remember to save your content.
