    Meta Commerce Manager is well suited for posting content to semi-targeted users; posting is easy as a few clicks once content is created. Some of the tools are very easy to use. Back-end analytics are there, although it can be expensive or complicated how far your institution wants to drill down.

    If you wish to reduce stress of managing multiple social media handles from a single place, you can use Hearsay Social. Hearsay Social helps you analyze, automate, schedule posts and even give ideas for posts. Rather than multitasking, one would obliviously choose a single place to track your posts. It also fares greatly as compared to its competitors. It has a great interface. Very easy and simple to use.

    Site navigation isn't the best, but there are many tools available for you to use. Plenty of data on metrics and everything else you would be looking for on a platform like this.

    You can only contact support via Facebook Messenger. They are fairly quick to respond, but cannot always help you. When items get falsely flagged as inappropriate for the platform, it is a crap shoot whether or now submitting them to be re-evaluated will pan out.

    Facebook Business Manager is also good however it has some limitations like it's very difficult to remove an ad account, we cannot schedule shared posts and the user interface is a bit complicated and not user-friendly. I like the user interface of Hearsay Social. I find it very simple and easy to use. Also, it has all the features that you might require in Social Media Management tool.

    It is inferior to all of those products, but since there are zero listing fees and zero commissions it is worth the effort to use it. I have already mentioned all of the pros & cons, so will not bother to do so again here.
