Iconosquare vs. Vista Social

A good match for someone looking into Iconosquare would be a social media manager looking to streamline their analytics process. It is for someone who may be pulling these numbers manually and wants a centralized location to pull numbers across platforms. Iconosquare also allows you to schedule your content, which provides another one-stop shop. Where it would be less suited is someone who may not use more than one social platform.

I was working on a social media campaign for multiple platforms and it was getting tough to manage all accounts parallelly. When I discovered Vista Social and connected all my accounts, I didn't need to log in to individual platforms again. Now I manage posts and track their performance on Vista Social without much hassle.

• Integration is only on advanced upward, however again I wouldnt be selecting a package below this
• Account reviews only on Enterprise however Advanced could be handy to have this feature

Vista Social earns a solid 9 out of 10 for its overall usability. The user interface takes some time to figure out how to navigate, but the scheduling features are excellent. The inclusion of a centralized dashboard for monitoring multiple social media accounts enhances usability for businesses with diverse online presence. A more extensive knowledge base or interactive tutorials could enhance the initial learning curve for new users, ensuring they unlock the platform's full potential from the start. Despite this, Vista Social remains a great and efficient tool for managing social media content.

We never had a problem with customer support, nor really needed it. The UX of the site was easy to follow and simple to use.

We focus primarily on Instagram with our social media strategy, so Iconosquare delivers the best experience by far for that platform
