Simplify360 vs. VinTank

To talk directly to the Simplify 360 management and take a call post that. One of the key aspects of investing in any enterprise software is how easy the implementation is and how much support that a company can get in the early implementation process. We have had a quick ramp up learning the tool and had constant interactions with the team at Simplify to better understand and manage issues or get questions answered

VinTank is a tool for many facets of the wine and restaurant industry. Depending on the scale of your business, this tool can be managed and dispersed by an enterprise manager or solely owned by a social media/community manager. The ability to add multiple users and assign responses allows efficiency and proper knowledge to address specific issues brought by our social customers

• BeFirst publishes to multiple social channels for clients. The publishing module makes publishing very easy and effective.
• Workflow allows our team to handle customer service requests and brand management issues very quickly to maintain a company's reputation.
• The ease of set up in the listening module, makes brand reputation very effective.
• The platform does offer platform provide sentiment analysis, and it works great. The team has found that is very easy to keep up conversations and answer customer for clients or forward the infomation to said client.

• Social Prospecting - Can discover potential customers based on context of their profiles, conversations and influence
• Specialized Social Index - Relevant to your competition and industry
• Analytics - Can gauge performance based on conversation, channel size, competition and social customer growth over time

• I will like to see some improvement in the intuitiveness of the system. There are some great features hidden behind the curtains.

• Complete Social Channel Management - A platform integration (such as Hootsuite) for planning, scheduling, posting and team management on a larger scale. Would mean one less social management platform for myself.

We have a great relationship with the Simplify team and anyone in our team is able to reach out to them and get answers to questions is a wonderful benefit of working with them. Also we have collaborated with the team to enhance the product, which again is a very welcome gesture from a company that sells a product that helps enterprises listen in to people and support them.

Given the value of the tools presented, VinTank is a no-brainer. Being able to monitor social mentions of brands, segment customers on various interaction levels, enhance consumer response and experience, all while discovering new and influential customers make VinTank a must have software product for wineries and restaurants. Context of our social mentions have become extremely powerful and VinTank has delivered the tools to use this data to its full potential to deliver true ROI
