CoSchedule Marketing Suite vs. Sniply

CoSchedule is great for businesses or agencies who need an overview of all their marketing efforts, and who want to establish collaboration between multiple departments. The calendar view is one of the best we've worked with and makes it easy to see exactly what's happening. There is some slight clunkiness when it comes to admin-related tasks, and a few things aren't easy to find, but there's great support.

Sniply is well suited for large companies with very engaged audiences and brands that attract a lot of attention. It would also work well with single brands that don't have to switch between profiles. For us, it works very well; it is just a little more time consuming than if we were a larger company or had fewer brands.

• Best time to post is great at updating to when we get the most engagement by platform
• Requeue tool to slate out additional posts for a given piece of content is a huge time saver
• Aggregate analytics tool shows us a peek across our posts on a given platform that's actually easier to read than the platform itself

• Using the 'Call to Action' feature means I set specific text to drive people to my blog.
• 1000 clicks for free is an excellent price point for independent consultants and small businesses and the price points to upgrade make a lot of sense too.
• It's super easy to track clicks and conversions to your website.
• Super easy integration with Buffer which is fantastic.

• The platform seems sluggish as of late, likely as a result of the robust amount of data we are entering and the number of filters we're creating.
• Social media scheduling exists, but we do run into publishing errors more often then we'd like.
• Task templates when updated are not retroactive, so when you create projects for an entire year and then change a template, you need to go back and change them manually.

• Packages. We are a medium-sized company but we manage small brands who do not get a lot of clicks. Because of this, the current packages don't work for our purposes.
• Integrations. We use Sniply inside of Sendible and the integration is a bit clunky when you have more than one account.
• Customization. Snips are look the same, it would be helpful if there were more customization options.

The interface is very intuitive, from setting up social profiles, to posting, to tags, to optimizing for best day/time to post. It's super easy to scan the aggregate analytics. The calendar is very easy to grok at a glance, and the more advanced functionality is intuitive to set up.

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.

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.

Sniply has a lot more data and customization features. Bitly does not have the features we need in the version we use. Sniply's UI is a lot more clean and user friendly then Bitly and is easier to use. Also, the integration with Sendible makes Sniply much more convenient for us to use

• It has saved me about 1 hour per day to keep things organized from Asana to WordPress.
• By not having a functioning Google Doc import feature, it costs me about 30 minutes for each blog post to copy paste all the content, images, etc.
• By bundling too many features into their plans, many of which we don't use (e.g. social media scheduling), we lose a little ROI because we are not using the full feature set. We use and prefer Buffer for social media, so when CoSchedule raised their price $40+ per month on features we would not be using, that hurt.

• I use the free version and so far my conversion rate (people who click my call to action) is 0.71%. This is a low number but also represents 3 people who might not ordinarily have visited my website so that's a good return to me.
