Fiverr vs. Percolate, now part of Seismic

As a seller, firstly they will let you run your services as long as you need, charging the most famous highest rate ever of 20% and another from the Buyer. In my experience, they would anytime suspend your gigs and kick you out especially when their algorithm makes your gigs shine on top of Buyer choices "unless" you start to "spend" what you earned on their platform, promoting your gigs, or taking training or whatsoever! The simplest way of doing it is picking up the easiest reason "Not complying with our Community Standard / Integrity / Policy " !! A policy that I doubt any of their staff read or understood! Or whatever comes on their way !! They tend to find all the ways to diminish your business and they would accept anything from anyone of their Buyers that helps on that as long as it is against you! P.S: Their decisions cannot be "undone" and not "discussable." As a Buyer, nothing special on the platform except a huge enormous security system that hinders innovation and the proper discussions with Sellers !! On another similar platform, you can Video call the Seller through any meeting app! In Fiverr, the maximum would be to find a data entry specialist! They are trying to expand .. true, but with their mentality in how business and innovation are being managed, how would you expect to have a Business Plan through a seller from the USA, who is not vetted and probably staying in Bangladesh and not the cute lady that you see her profile photo! Only cause the platform reads the IP address, easy to bluff!

Very useful for the management, planning, and programming of all social networks, as well as marketing campaigns. One of the best tools to make life easier for community managers and automate daily tasks such as content publishing. It is my favorite for managing my clients' networks.

Also, Fiverr does a great job in vetting sellers with a star system that will gauge everything from response times to order delivery.

• Fiverr does a great job of exposing a buyer or a seller to an international audience.
• Fiverr allows me to accumulate a list of my best sellers so that I can maintain contact and easily access their services again if needed.
• As a seller, I'm exposed to a range of potential customers that would have not been within my reach otherwise.

• Fiverr cuts 20% commission
• Fiverr is hectic for beginners

• A lot of the features in Percolate are very well built, but only provide the bare minimum as features go. Its editorial calendar for example lacks export/import features and its multimedia repository only supports images. In many ways, Percolate is trying very hard to be too much at the same time.
• At the moment, Percolate lacks user level management. We can add users who need to be moderated before posting, but it is for example not possible to add users just for one specific function (like the multimedia database).

Percolate is a great tool for us, because we need the approval process workflows. The training was great when we first signed on, and the interface is very user friendly. We have trained our interns to use it as well with no issues. It makes keeping up with our content calendar a breeze and we can easily see what posts have been approved and which ones are still pending at a quick glance

Rarely has a company shown this much support during implementation. This almost got to the point where it was too much hand holding. Sometimes, social teams just want the keys to the car so they can drive it themselves instead of waiting on someone to drive along with them...

Over the years, I've tried Freelancer, Guru, and Truelancer, but none of them measured up to Fiverr and I've long since abandoned trying to find a competitor. My relationship with Fiverr is on automatic pilot.

Percolate and Falcon have many similarities and provide many of the same features, however Percolate felt a bit more robust than Falcon, although it does come with a higher price tag to match. Both platforms are excellent for content approval workflows, content scheduling, and community management. Percolate offers additional features such as an Asset Management Library and a section for creative briefs and collaboration with internal teams.

• No, I kept spending money for better services and long invested in that, however, I don't think it is reliable.

• Percolate has made it much easier to communicate between teams and has provided a return on investment in that area in particular.
• Percolate also helps save time because you are able to schedule social media posts across channels easily.
• It has also been an easy way to work with remote team members, which is very helpful.
