    I highly recommend SambaSaaS to businesses managing multiple websites and social media accounts. I also recommend it for entrepreneurs who need to manage international branches and international clients

    I would NEVER recommend Signposts! Signpost's fee is very expensive for a small company like ours, so I had to cancel the service - or at least TRY to. I contacted them the day after they billed our card for another $2,000, and I was told that we were automatically on the hook for another year, with no exceptions and no recourse. Very greedy and desperate; this doesn't seem like the way to keep happy clients.

    Pros
    SeoSamba
    • Automates multisite SEO, so we can stay focused on great content that attracts the right audience for our two entirely different strategic business units.
    • Eliminates the surprises we used to get with other plugins when Wordpress makes unannounced changes that crash other plugins.
    • Agile, easy to use, and saves hours of time and creative resources
    • Automates metric capture: site analytics, keyword/phrase capture, search engine page results etc...in an online dashboard (and it's free).

    Signpost
    • The best feature that I like the most and have been using for some time is their marketing tool. Signpost makes marketing an easy task. It has enhanced our productivity.
    • As I did things manually in the past but now Signpost has made this very much easier for me to just trust their marketing tool to do marketing according to the algorithm.
    • It helps me to have more organic views on the platform and more positive reviews on the newsletter.
    • The automated system asks for reviews from the customer which makes it even more helpful in changing and advancing new things.
    • It also changes our approach to the work and with the automated extremely functional setup it increases our positive reviews which is good for the organization.

    Cons
    SeoSamba
    • It has a lot of features. So, it's kind of difficult to get started and to learn every feature in the software. However, once you get used to SambaSaaS, it's fairly easy to navigate.

    • Provide user a way to cancel their service.
    • Get rid of the very aggressive sales staff.
    • Refund money for unused moths. Do not be so shady!

    Prior to SeoSamba we were making manual changes. Then we started researching several possible other plugins but the reviews all said the same - that if WP made significant enough changes those plugins would become ineffective. SeoSamba's ability to automate optimization and keep up with/stay ahead of those changes was the deciding factor for us.

    • The support team is very professional. I had problems while using Signpost in the past and I contacted their support on that matter.
    • They responded very professionally, listen[ed] to each and every problem related to the work, and doing hindrance to the flow of work with the full-fledged solution to the problem.
    • This makes me more confident in using the platform more in depth.
