    Chose Echobox Social
    We decided to opt for Echobox Social as it is more suited for publishers than Sprout Social. We do not have to manually select when we would like to schedule posts. The AI-powered engine of Echobox Social not only means we are able to maximise our reach, but it also suggests …

    To be completely honest, we've stumbled upon Echobox because some other media houses in Serbia were already using it. They were kind enough to offer us a trial and we were very satisfied with initial reactions, both from our staff and from our readers. Therefore it was a …

    For us, Echobox is the first tool of its kind so we can't make a comparison with other kinds of software. We have used tools like Trello and Slack, but they don't have this function and, of course, we used to use Facebook's integrated management system, but it's not comparable …

    No comparison. Echobox is far more intuitive, and the integration is excellent. Although the cost is higher, the efficiency benefits so far outweigh the minor extra expense.

    In both products, you can post your different articles, but the big difference it´s that Echobox will choose the best moment to do it and in Zapier the article publish immediately.

    Sprout has far more analytic functionality but Echobox's AI analysis of our content and automation means we can trust the system to manage our posts and focus on content creation. Sprout remains a manual posting tool.

    Echobox Social is well suited to publishers and media organisations who are publishing daily online content that needs sharing across social platforms. It works best if your social media objective is driving traffic to your articles/website. It would be suitable for both small and large organisations, as it allows multiple users with different access.

    Pros
    Echobox
    • Echobox automation is invaluable; the fact that it can intelligently automatically schedule articles within seconds of these being published on our website saves us a huge amount of time
    • I find the AI message option particularly useful when rescheduling content. Although it does not always pick out the best quote, most of the time it does a good job and again saves a lot of time
    • Having the option to schedule content immediately as well as in a specific time-slot or day is also very useful

    Cons
    Echobox
    • Since I'm Brazilian, and our whole team is based in Brazil, would be great if the whole platform was translated for Portuguese. There are no many English speakers in Brazil, to be honest. That would make it easier
    • Tik Tok. Would be nice if somehow Echobox could provide their AI for Tik Tok Users

    Because I am totally satisfied with Echobox service. I find it balanced between the service itself and its cost. Compared to its competitors, it is, without a doubt, the best product for small publishers. It only lacks in a greater and more efficient management of statistics which, at the moment, is absent. I will definitely renew Echobox!

    Usability
    Echobox
    Setting up can be complicated but their team was on standby to help us with that. The interface was a bit stiff at first but once you are all set up, you won't need to do much since most of it is automated and the more complicated things can be cleared up with customer support.

    When there have been problems, they’ve usually been resolved very quickly. Some issues have occurred such as not being able to download images or posts not going out when the service has crashed, but they’re also very open to feedback. The option to download pictures loaded into the feed stories was my suggestion; saving us time creating new images and getting the posts out quickly
