Chose Khoros Social Media Management
I think Khoros Social Media Management is at the middle of platforms such as Sprinklr and Emplifi in the top, and Zoho Social at the bottom. I'd chose Khoros Social Media Management again for a middle-size to small-size company I work with, if their social media needs aren't …

Sprout is much more user friendly and aesthetic. The mobile app is also much more useable.

At the time of purchase, Khoros met a specific technical need that other vendors couldn't provide for us. Now, however, Sprout Social has this same capability, and Khoros is massively inferior to it on everything but price and some minor UX issues. At this point Khoros seems to …

I like Later a lot because it lets us implement the link in bio and make Facebook + Instagram posts at the same time, which cuts time in half.

Instead of using multiple platforms to schedule content, report, and moderate it is now all under one umbrella with Khoros.

Social Media Manager in Marketing at The Social Lights (Marketing & Advertising, 51-200 employees)
Chose Khoros Social Media Management
On some accounts that I am on, I use Asana in place of Khoros marketing but I much prefer Khoros Marketing. I prefer Khoros Marketing over Asana because I can post directly (and schedule posts) on Khoros but not on Asana. Also, I can moderate directly on Khoros but not Asana.

I've used a number of other Marketing software over my 13yrs of working in social media. I would say that Khoros stacks up relatively well against it's competitors. It may not be the number one but it suited our needs.

Khoros is by far the easiest to use Spinklr has more functions with ads for TWitter and you can keep track of budget easily on Sprinklr but it is an absolute MONSTER for the interface. I am a certified Sprinklr admin and I still have problems figuring stuff out. Hootsuite is …

We would prefer to have everything done under one software rather than having to switch between software because Khoros doesn't have everything we need.

While I cannot say any scenarios where Khoros wouldn't be useful (when it comes to social media moderation), I can say it is very well suited for clients who have time constraints on their work. With the speed Khoros can pull in new content, we see issues for the client almost immediately.

There is no product like Khoros. Our company lives and dies by the analytics, and to date, we have not seen a more comprehensive analytics structure for any social media management tool. Khoros support is also fantastic, responding and resolving any and all questions, ideas, or complaints, usually in 24 hours.
Khoros Marketing is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. The calendar visibility is the view I use most so I can see all posts going out on all of our channels. It allows us to time posts in a proper cadence so we don't overlap with other pressing content.

• We still experience a bit of downtime and slowness here but things have drastically improved in the last year with their feature updates and reconfigured hosting.
Khoros has greatly improved the performance of its SaaS products in the last 5 years. Their applications, including Conversations, Intelligence, and Experiences, all load quickly with real-time data. This performance is critical to provide meaningful, social customer support, and marketing. The performance maintains integrity even when you deploy powerful integrations like Salesforce Customer Relationship Manager.
Overall, support does a great job and is timely in their responses and efforts. We have had to contact support many times due to the Capture app. Some tickets have remained open for months, while others get resolved quickly. I understand this is not always up to support and they often have to wait for their engineering team to fix issues that we identified, but it's difficult to deal with issues that are affecting our workflow, especially for extended amounts of time.

• As a very early customer, we did not undergo formal training but worked closely with the team to get the system set up to do what we wanted. However, online training resources are now available with many blog posts / video lessons and tutorials.
it is important to note that my perspective is not necessarily common - I'm a geek/nerd/poweruser in general, so I found the online resources to be more than adequate (and often very aesthetically pleasing, too). That said, a less "geeky" person might struggle a bit.
The implementation team from Khoros were great - they worked hard to understand our somewhat complex organization, and were with us all the way through face to face meetings, user training, and technical training. We had a clearly defined account manager and implementation manager, who worked really effectively together and with us.

Again, I am a fairly new employee to The Social Lights (I've only been here for 11 months) and I am also fairly new to the workforce (I've only just graduated from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities) so it's hard for me to talk too much about the scalability of businesses; however, I feel like this would help
