Scoop.it Content Director vs. Socialtext (discontinued)

Scoop.it does have collaboration features so you can have more than one admin add content to a topic, but there is no platform for collaboration or drafting of content. It is easy to try out the free version and get a good idea of what the application does, and then add on features from there

We use Social Text as a platform to air our issues with different departments. We voice our concerns and suggestions so we can help find a solution to the problems we incur on a daily basis. We need to have social text as an app so we can communicate in real time not only during work hours.

• Provides suggestions daily for each of your topics depending on keywords you choose. There is no guesswork about what to share.
• Allows sharing of your content to various social media outlets with the touch of a button. Your content gets spread quickly.
• Your own beautiful front page functions as your website. It shows the curator profile, and all your topics.

• Version history - Always keeps the edited versions and one can revert back any time
• Creating and Editing an article is very easy and intutive
• Sharing the articles with peers

• When we first implemented the usage of Scoop.it the topics of search were very limited, but as the popularity grows, so does the number of searchable topics.

• Search needs a ton of improvements. It was very slow a year ago
• Search result quality was also not that good
• I know they have improved their UI recently but when i used it last year it did not really have any design elements which could be used to make the articles look more presentable. It was important for us as we used it for external communication as well.

Right now, it does not cost me anything. I am extremely happy with the service and product. It serves my needs for research.

We have a lot of info in Socialtext already. It would be hard to get all that info out and port it to a different system

Well thought out UI

We used both social sites and as a personal preference, I liked Scoop.it considerably more because of the layout of the site and the ease of the user experience. It was also much easier to share content. I like to think of Scoop.it as the "short, sweet and to the point" website that gives me exactly what we need, when we need it and the manner in which it easiest to use.

I frankly like Confluence better than socialtext because of the speed and the quality of search. They also have better design elements which can help make the articles pleasant to the eyes.

• I'm afraid we haven't been able to measure ROI, but we definitely have a stronger, more graphic impact in social media
