GroSocial (Discontinued Product) vs. Juicer

They built their platform largely on contests. They still do a fairly good job on these

Incentivized

Juicer is great for any campaign, hashtag, or event-related website. For example, we've created this website for a friend's event (the "Pirate Summit", and it looks like this https://www.juicer.io/pirate-summit). Also, artists use it a lot, for example, Bon Jovi's official site at https://www.juicer.io/bonjovi. You can also build a lot of stuff around it, and just keep Juicer's aggregated social media feed in an iFrame. Juicer is less well suited if you want to enable actions from social media, e.g. buying a physical product. In these cases, classic e-commerce shops are better suited.

• Juicer allows me the opportunity to set it and forget it so that I can use my valuable time to focus on other things.
• Juicer has allowed us to seamlessly ensure that our social media feed can be found on our website and that it will stay up to date at any given moment.

• When Infusionsoft purchased GroSocial it seemed like product development ceased. Many other companies surpassed their abilities.
• They are very expensive for what they offer. Many other companies now offer better platforms, for far less.
• When there was an issue (ie in a campaign, or link broke etc) the support team would blame the client first, when in most cases it could be proven to be a software malfunction.
• Tabs are no longer smart phone friendly. When we stopped using GroSocial they had not set up the redirect link at that time. This may have changed now.
• When you manage multiple accounts, your client could stop your access to their account. They could then stop paying for the service, and their tabs would still be live. GroSocial is the only one who could disable the tabs. It was not automatic.

• There might be one or two social media sources worth adding, e.g. Tripadvisor.

GroSocial quite simply does not stack up to the competition. They are years behind in development. We have moved all our clients to other platforms.

I haven’t had the first-hand opportunity to try other platforms. Juicer was already being used on our other websites and therefore we’re now utilizing it for the Foundation.

• Haven't seen a significant change yet

• It's very quick to deploy, so no IT/development costs (except putting in a small javascript, which takes 5 minutes).
• Definitely positive ROI, it's much cheaper than other solutions which can cost some times 10x as much.
