Very intuitive and efficient, a must-have tool for social media editors

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Slate.fr, being a pure player, we do rely a lot on our presence on social media. This is definitely at the core of our strategy as a company. Echobox made our social media editors’ lives much easier. It is an intuitive, very useful and quick-to-learn tool. We use to spend so much time posting on the different platforms individually. With Echobox, having all of our accounts on one tool has been a substantial time saver. The feature that sold us on going with Echobox is the time-slot one, adding a score above the posts, suggesting if that is relevant at that time, and letting the algorithm post at the most suitable time.
Pros
  • The AI-based algorithm, with the time-slot feature
  • Resharing old contents that match trending topics
  • The time-saving workflow
  • The social media analytics
Cons
  • Instagram Reels and TikTok integrations (coming soon!)
Likelihood to Recommend
We share multiple stories and podcast episodes every day, and Echobox allow us to post them on different platforms or accounts very easily, and at the most meaningful time.
We also reshare every day some old stories from our archives, which drive sometimes a lot of traffic thanks to the time-slot feature.
Most Important Features
  • Cross-posting on multiple platforms or accounts
  • The time-slot feature
  • The analytics
Return on Investment
  • It helped us achieve the traffic goals we aimed
  • It made our social media editors' life much easier

The Echobox system is very easy to use and does not require the selection or training of staff. It facilitates the work of the editorial staff who can rely on the complete automation and automatic selection of conndivisions. The system allows a high level of customization of the content selections, an important rss configuration activity both through the use of customized URLs and through the use of simple words or tags or hashtags that speeds up and personalizes the entire process of sharing and optimization of times

Because I am totally satisfied with Echobox service. I find it balanced between the service itself and its cost. Compared to its competitors, it is, without a doubt, the best product for small publishers. It only lacks in a greater and more efficient management of statistics which, at the moment, is absent. I will definitely renew Echobox!

Incredibly Impressive Tool

June 06, 2023
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Echobox to schedule posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. The tool is used by Editorial Team for publishing action and the Marketing team for analytics & report. As we are fighting against Facebook's feed algorithm, Echobox helps us in improving the organic impressions, reach, and engagement. The result of the tool gives us the precise decision on which post should we invest in.
Pros
  • The scoring system gives us the idea of which scheduling mechanism we should use for the ultimate result.
  • The ability to edit on text and image of the post before scheduling gives us more room to improve the performance.
  • Its algorithm enables us to select the most ideal times for the contents to perform better with the audience.
  • Automation and post scheduling features have made our lives easier by saving time and employee attention, allowing us to focus on what is most important - content.
Cons
  • The ability to approve the 'AUTOFEED' for reshare function.
  • Notification when autofeed share or reshare post is published via Echobox.
  • Analytics report with more metrics on social media engagement
Likelihood to Recommend
Echobox helps you save time in managing social media posting/scheduling. Moreover, it helps you decide what will be the best date & time to post to result in maximum performance on impressions, reach and click. However, the downside can be system bugs for the autofeed function such as double share on the same content with a slightly different URL pattern.
Most Important Features
  • Using AI for sharing time
  • Scoring for content
  • Autofeed function for reshare
  • Autofeed function for share
Return on Investment
  • Improve click rate by 25% on Facebook
  • Improve click rate by 66% on Twitter
  • Reshares generate more clicks and engagement

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
The best thing is the automation of tasks to share content on social networks. One of the main advantages of Echobox is to find the best time windows for publishing on the different social networks, added to the integration with analytics of each of the fan pages that we manage, which allows us to make better decisions. In our company, we have more than 100 social network accounts, and thanks to Echobox, it is very easy to keep the organization of each one. In addition, you have analytics that easily show you what you did well and what you need to improve.
Pros
  • It helps you with organizing many accounts at once and allows you to cross-post between them.
  • Post automation is great as it allows you to get your work done much faster. The robot learns fast, and its posts seem to be made by a person.
  • It gives you detailed information about your posts that allows you to make decisions about them.
Cons
  • The Instagram stories part could be better. The formats it has are very basic; however, you can upload a photo that you previously edited.
Likelihood to Recommend
We have more than 100 accounts to manage, and Echobox has helped us keep them 100% active and with content that works; between the organization of the accounts and the team and the analytics that it shows you on each page it has allowed us to make the right decisions.
Most Important Features
  • The organization of the accounts to keep them active and working
  • The automation of posts that allows you to have time windows to do more and better things
  • Analytics that show what you're doing right or wrong
Return on Investment
  • We have noticed an increase in traffic to the site since using Echobox
  • Since using Echobox, the Social Media team has more time to create different products
  • It has allowed us to have all our accounts 100% active

They must have a complete understanding of social media management, from knowing how to authorize permissions, security, and even how to create posts. They need to know basic things about source code to get the RSS from the sites. And be very organized because depending on how you organize Echobox, that will work for the entire organization.
Business Processes Supported
  • Publication of content in the accounts.
  • Posts throughout the day, since thanks to the automation of posts, the robot can publish news at times when the Social Media team is not there.
Innovative Uses
  • Post automation has improved everything for us, from making times more efficient to improving our traffic because we have content all day.
Future Planned Uses
  • Having more active accounts. The organization of many accounts at the same time is incredible and also allows you to always have them active

It is a tool that has come to improve many things. The entire Social Media team feels good about it, and it shows us favorable results.
Products Replaced
Yes
Emplifi, since it is a product-focused mainly on Marketing than on Media, its functions seemed limited to us since due to the number of accounts we have (more than 100), we need automated help in posting, but without seeming to be done by a robot
Key Differentiators
  • Product Usability
Emplifi is fine, but not for a media outlet that needs to have more social media activity, which is why we decided to switch to Echobox, which really focuses on how media outlets use social media.
Evaluation Lessons Learned
First, expose our needs and then try the tool to know the scope it has by completing them. They usually come with a tool, they convince you, and you buy it, but it should be the other way around, be clear about what you need and not have to adapt.
