Send Social Media vs. Sendible

As a social media executive, I can plan and schedule content for the entire week (or month!) ensuring a consistent presence for all social media platforms. I can easily generate reports to track engagement and measure the success of social media strategy.

I have a fairly straightforward use case for Sendible and it meets almost all of my needs. If you are a small company that needs a collaborative solution to social media content creation, and likely has a small team (or no team) to manage social media postings, I think Sendible is likely a great tool to schedule posts and largely automate social media marketing. A larger company or more involved marketing team could still use Sendible to schedule and collaborate on posts. However, there may be additional features they may want or need (like the ability to promote posts) that may not be available with Sendible.

• Easy to use due to frienly user interface
• Saves time as it scedule the post
• Manage, monitor, and publish content across multiple social media networks from a single dashboard.

• Easy to schedule and post to all of your social media platforms.
• Customer support is very accommodating and always there to help. I have never had an issue with reaching someone whether it was for a quick question or to demo other features.
• They have an awesome affiliate program (example: I earned over $600 from one company clicking through an signing up from my affiliate link - yay!)
• Compared to other social media platforms, Sendible has been the most robust with features and ease of use.
• They are always making advances and upgrades to their service offerings to better meet the needs of their customers.

• trial version duration is very less
• Not have detailed features best for small buisness
• quite expensive

• Inbox. The inbox of incoming messages/posts is very clunky. Threads are separated into individual messages, making it difficult to follow conversations.
• Reporting. The included reporting features are limited and don't allow for enough customization to be worth using.
• Hashtags. When discussing the 10 most common mistakes (or whatever the title might be), we are unable to say "You won't believe #3" because the system reads this as a hashtag to link rather than just a number. It adds on editing time when approving posts.
• Default settings. As a Social Media Manager, it is annoying to have myself set as default when looking at the content calendar. I don't write the posts, just approved and schedule them, so manually entering in my writers' names in the filters could be made easier by making this an editable feature.
• Instagram. You cannot post multiple images in a single Instagram post from Sendible.
• Service Lists. They are supposed to be helpful in grouping your services (we do this by brand), however, these lists don't pull the information you put on individual services. So if I have a list with Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest for Brand A, you can't just add the Brand A Service List filter onto the calendar and see all of those posts that are scheduled. They don't seem to have much purpose at all.

If I am given a larger budget to work with then I'd like a program that tracks and collects my PR hits, as well as sends me important info to respond to. I realy like the way New Brand Analytics tracks my Trip Advisor,etc ratings

Send Social Media alternatives that social media managers often consider:Hootsuite: A popular platform offering comprehensive social media management features, including scheduling, analytics, and team collaboration.Buffer: Known for its user-friendly interface and focus on content scheduling and queueing.Sprout Social: Offers powerful social listening and engagement tools along with scheduling and reporting functionalities.

Sendible offers outstanding value for money with majority of the features offered by more expensive platforms at a much lower cost. We were using a combination of Hootsuite and Sendible. Sendible remains our primary social media scheduling tool and we were using the free version of Hootsuite as it offered superior social listening, with the ability to track posts by keywords and hashtags in streams for example. Sendible does not offer this same functionality for social listening. When Hootsuite stopped offering social listening streams for free, we dropped Hootsuite and we are currently manually searching social media platforms one at a time until we identify a cost effective social listening tool with the required features.
