Chose Kapost
None - I did not look at other competitors or evaluated them. I did hear word of mouth that Wrike is a main competitor and offers a very good product that rivals Kapost reputation and features.
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 …
I've used basic tools like SharePoint in the past as a content repository, but it's not user friendly, not well organized, hard to manage and not well-suited for marketing content (version control issues, etc. ). Get a dedicated tool!
ISI listing from Thomson Reuters returns bigger and more narrowed lists. If you need a narrowed list go with them. If you want a large party internal [tool] deploy Kapost, it works just fine. I also have found that the design team behind Aprimo has a bigger design background …
Kapost solves many project management aspects of creating marketing content. The automated workflows allow for faster setup of common assets and automatically remind team mates of deadlines and upcoming requests. It streamlines content creation. Hootsuite Enterprise was made …
To be honest, I've only joined the team here at SolidFire this quarter (it's my understanding that before Kapost, there was no content management system, though). But in the past, I've used WordPress way more extensively than we do here -- effectively as the in-house CMS. …
Kapost is really designed for content production and management, not more broadly for project management like Basecamp and JIRA. It's a very hybrid product that straddles tools: CMS, automated workflow management, DAM (less so, but sort of), and has unique features that make it …
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.
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.
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.
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.
