Likelihood to Recommend	Tumblr Tumblr can be complicated when it comes to using it in a work setting. With the privacy options being somewhat limited, you will want to make sure that your staff are only sharing information that they are comfortable with in the public realm. You'll need to put some effort into designing an appropriate policy that covers the use of Tumblr and what content can be shared. If you're simply finding a way to engage staff and perhaps show outsiders what it is like to work at your organization, it can be used quite effectively, but you have to be mindful of how involved it gets.

Pros	Tumblr Intuitive ease of use. It was easy to set up and get the account running immediately. Simplicity. Adding text, pictures and video was easy. Look & Feel. For the low maintenance approach we were aiming for, we were surprised that the site actually looked pretty slick. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Tumblr It can be hard to get followers, similar to Twitter. Also similar to Twitter, its possible to get followers that are in no way interested in your business and seeking to promote themselves. If you want to use Tumblr to promote your products online, it can be a trial and error process that can be frustrating for businesses that have little experience with photography.

Likelihood to Renew	Tumblr Because of its ease of use - both on desktop and mobile - and the perks of being able to schedule a post for future release, Tumblr is a tool that we plan to continue using in the long term. Despite feeling like a primairly one-sided tool, it can also start conversations online, which is something for which we are always striving. Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Return on Investment	Tumblr Tumblr has helped me meet new people with similar interests. I used it for development blog postings for a game we worked on in college. N/A- Not really business oriented beyond linking to pages, but I don't have one of those businesses. I've just seen people use it for that. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
