Loomly vs. Meta Business Manager

I think for someone looking for a lower-cost social media management took, Loomly is the best I've found. It's pretty easy to use, and has a lot of tools that outshine the downsides of the platform. If you're looking for a pretty standard, easy to use, and aesthetically clean platform, I'd recommend Loomly. For more analytic tools, it's perhaps not for you.

This works great if you want to advertise on Facebook or Instagram. It would not work for other platforms. The targeting options on Meta are the best I've seen. There are many different targeting interests, and you can really trust the data that Meta has. Scaling one creative to many different placements is also really helpful.

• The only thing I have noticed is when on my device, it calls out a list of names that have shared your post, and it only shows one. On the computer it will let you scroll down and see all of them.

I would prefer the FBM to have a complete overhaul and look at it from the user's perspective of managing multiple pages for multiple clients. As it stands, the only functionality that really helps us is from a desktop perspective, not a smartphone, and with our team being mobile, this is a big issue. FBM has made it harder for us in many cases to perform routine social tasks, although I do like the integration feature for other social apps.

It is very difficult to get a helpful response from their customer support team. It's already difficult to get in touch with them through email, so not getting a response can be frustrating. I understand that they receive a high volume of requests and questions, but I feel like they should be filtered and responded to.

I found Loomly, while more simple, to be the most worth the price. Especially because I specifically can view analytics on client accounts directly, there's no need for me to have it within my platform. However, I know this is crucial for a lot of people. If they're looking for that, I'd probably say another platform might be better. But for me, Loomly is perfect!

While products like Sprout and Hootsuite will manage your Facebook Page along with the rest of your social media presence, using the official Facebook Pages [Manager] is superior when it comes to managing comments, placing ads, and reacting to customers quickly. The mobile app (I use iOS) is connected with your personal Facebook account and works alongside it to help you succeed.

• Makes it more effective as both team members and clients have access to it
• It is effective to cover everything about social media from scheduling to replying to comments and audience

• Most of our leads come from Facebook paid marketing.
• Our business is centered around our content, which allows us to stand out from the completion. Facebook allows us to get the content in front of our audience.
• Facebook Marketing is so dynamic that it takes loads of trial and error to get to a winning formula. And the errors can be expensive.
