Kapost vs. VistaCreate

Kapost has potential to be a great asset in small and large orgs. If you're not producing a great deal of content, or coordinating across a large team, there's still tremendous value, but it scales as your org scales because it makes it easier to coordinate and manage large teams and large content archives.

For creative and captivating presentation slides where you are pitching your ideas to the team, for quick and well-presented pamphlets for the event board, irrespective of university or workplace. I would definitely recommend using existing templates from VistaCreate instead of AI-generated images that are messy and crowded, so you connect with the audience better, and also, of course, people will take it seriously as well..

• Filtering: If you make the most out of your custom details and custom fields, you can gain newfound access to materials that may have long been lost in the ether. It's really easy for us, for instance, to see all of our videos at once. Or everything targeting a certain buying stage. Or you can keyword search to see everything on one topic.
• Workflows: It's really nice to lay out "who sees what when" in a digital way, because everyone involved on an asset can easily see what stage things are at. You can also set deadlines to tasks, which seems a bit more firm than a casual email, because you can visually see how meeting your deadline fits within the whole timeline.
• Calendars: The calendar feature is nice for us because we have a blog, so we can see when everything is (supposed) to go live. It's easy to see when I, as a copy editor, should be expecting work, so I can align my day accordingly. Way better than the old-fashioned "mental note" system.

• Social media distribution needs improvement. Specifically a calendar for planned Tweets and a better way to schedule multiple shares of the same content.
• System performance is somewhat slow.
• Should be an easier way to make changes, like adding custom fields or publication destinations, to all content types, rather than one at a time.

• Difficult to design content on mobile phone
• Mobile designs do not sync with desktop app

We are using some other systems that might have replaced Kapost, but none of them had the workflow functionality we were looking for. So, we're sticking with Kapost for now.

The calendar view is a great feature and so are the custom views. It is relatively easy to see a clear view of what content the user is responsible for and then the due dates associated to it. The ability to create and update workflows for the team is easy to navigate and keeps us on track.

It's a fantastic tool, be it the free or paid version. You can choose different templates from many listed categories and change styles with palettes, add music to your images, and choose from a variety of fonts. All these features are for free users. You unlock gold if you have a paid version of VistaCreate. Some additional useful features like background remover, AI writer, object remover, resize, and many varieties of templates are only for premium users. I give 9 because additional premium useful features are not available for free users

The reputation of the product matches up to its reputation as one of the leaders in the space. I love that you can share and access content at your fingertips from anywhere. The downside is that it does not have the prettiest interface but you can get over this with its functionality.

Workfront has a lot of great features, but Kapost was the right tool for what we needed at the time. With a team of our size, we had to make sure we weren't biting off more than we could chew and the project never got off the ground. We had to be thoughtful with how we rolled it out.

I like to give a chance to other products and try them out. As far as my experience is concerned, I liked the feature of VistaCreate, with palettes, which totally changes the mood and tone of the image. That's something I didn't find in Canva. Additionally, the simplicity and user-friendliness of VistaCreate instead of being crowded with too many features. It's simply the best.
