Considered Both Products	Later Social SS Suzanne Stafford Principal Chose Later Social I went with Later for the lower cost subscription. The Hootsuite copy features is missed, but Later has hashtag suggestions which is nice. I really need something to post across multiple platforms. I also needed the ability to schedule more than the 5 free scheduled posts … Incentivized Helpful? Katrina Julia, Founder and CEO FIT Life Creation Creator + CEO Chose Later Social Different type of tool. Incentivized Helpful? Sebastian Correa Marsico Digital Content Lead Chose Later Social It's superior. Simply put. Later has better features and stronger functionalities, many of which none of these other tools have. When I used any of the previous tools there was always something missing so I had no choice but to work with two or three tools at the same time. … Incentivized Helpful? Alexandra Ceambur Content Marketer, and Blog Writer Chose Later Social As a social media manager I find that Buffer, Hootsuite and Sproutsocial are superior to all features available on Later. Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Later Social We evaluated multiple social media scheduling programs and ultimately selected a service apart from Later, but with the addition of their new tools, we are looking to potentially go back. Later was always one of our frontrunners, and with its new improvements, we will likely be … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Vice-President Chose Later Social Hootsuite works well but I appreciate the ability to add Stories directly from Later which helps us be more engaging and productive with our posting. Incentivized Helpful? Genie Forkner Co-Owner, Executive Director of Marketing & Public Relations Chose Later Social Hootsuite is still working with push notifications, (an extra annoying step) that Later has eliminated! Hootesuite places to many limits on user profiles which means the need for multiple accounts Later has eliminated these roadblocks in productivity. Incentivized Helpful? Ayo Bamgbose, Assoc CIPD, MSc Social Media & Digital Marketing Educator Chose Later Social I’ve used a lot of different scheduling apps over the last 4 years but what I like most about Later is that it is one of Instagram's recognized partners, resulting in being allowed to access certain features. For example, Later and a few others are the only ones that are … Incentivized Helpful? Lauren Kelley Director of Content Chose Later Social Sprout Social is a great tool, however, the price for a smaller company like ours was prohibitive. Later doesn't have LinkedIn support the way Sprout Social does, however Later does have unique product offerings for Instagram that ultimately set them apart for our team. We've … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Project Manager Chose Later Social I considered Hootsuite, but I don't think they have a free plan. Incentivized Helpful? Alexis Ramsey Senior Marketing Account Supervisor, Digital Strategy Chose Later Social Later is very affordable and kind of a hidden gem. While Sprout Social provides analytics that Later doesn't have, that's not a feature we were looking for. Multiple users do not cost extra money and the number of posts you get based on your plan is more than enough even if you … Incentivized Helpful? Meredith Walter Marketing Manager Chose Later Social Later is great specifically for Instagram. If you're looking for something to manage all of your social channels in, Later is not the tool for you. Incentivized Helpful? Josephine Stafford Owner Chose Later Social I've also used Planoly, which is what I switched from. Later by far is easier to use and manage and view. I like all the upgrade options and I like the blog posts to help navigate using the interface and also using Instagram. If I saw more results on Instagram I'd be all in, … Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	Later The free version is more than enough for personal use. But if you have a small business or if you're trying to grow your brand, it's better to use one of the premium plans. It's worth it. Later is especially useful if you manage multiple accounts for multiple brands/companies because you'll be managing everything with just one tool Incentivized Sebastian Correa Marsico Digital Content Lead Read full review
Pros	Later Later's easy upload feature (drag and drop) is incredibly helpful, especially for multiple images and videos. The drag and drop option for scheduling content is easy, and images and videos load rather quickly depending on size. Captions can be saved if there are posts or common phrases that repeated and shared out from the content. Incentivized Alexis Ramsey Senior Marketing Account Supervisor, Digital Strategy Read full review
Cons	Later I wish I could edit the look and feel of my pictures within Later a little easier. There are standard filters, but for brand sake, I need everything to be consistent. I wish there was a direct integration with things like Canva and Lightroom to make uploading and editing my images seamless. The biggest thing I wish Later did was allowing a better threshold for the free accounts. All of the helpful and useful features are for paid only (video posts, multi-image posts, analytics, etc). I can't justify the cost for just a few posts a month. I end up doing all of the video and multi-image posts manually, which lately has me questioning the benefit of Later's free version as a small business.

Usability	Later Later is extremely easy to use. I love the visual planner portion of the tool so I can see ahead of time what my images will look like next to and stacked amongst each other! The posts are so easy to set up, tag, and schedule. UX and UI are great! Incentivized Meredith Walter Marketing Manager Read full review
Support Rating	Later Later are not just a software tool, they also provide marketing advice, tips, and tutorials via their blog. I’ve only had to reach out to them for help a few times and have found them to respond much faster than other tools in their category. I receive weekly emails with updates, marketing tips and invites to online events. I look forward to their emails as I’ve learned a lot of things that I’ve been able to actually implement.

Alternatives Considered	Later I went with Later for the lower cost subscription. The Hootsuite copy features is missed, but Later has hashtag suggestions which is nice. I really need something to post across multiple platforms. I also needed the ability to schedule more than the 5 free scheduled posts offered by Hootsuite. Later has been working great for what I need it to do to support my small event promotion business. Incentivized SS Suzanne Stafford Principal Read full review
Return on Investment	Later Increased social media involvement - Since utilizing Later and another social media scheduling tool, we have seen our growth rise as much as 12% in just a few months. This includes followers, likes, and engagement. This is huge for us since social media is a great way to generate new customers and increase brand awareness. Easier reporting - Analytics tools on most of the big three (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter) are pretty limited. Later is a great way to take a look at our Analytics, and it makes it easy to understand the numbers. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
