We use the Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud for a variety of functions, from publishing to monitoring the performance of our own content. In my case, I analyze the performance of my own content. Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud is very good because we can gather all the metrics and social networks in one file, which makes the work easier. We use the content part to classify the posts according to the client's themes and export them to Excel to produce a performance report with qualitative and quantitative data.
  • Grouping content from different networks
  • Analytics
  • Categorization by tags
  • Data export
  • Fidelity of metrics
  • Content layout
  • Instagram data (shares)
For users who want to follow trends in other profiles and their client's own content, Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud is recommended. Like every analysis platform, there are limitations, the data is not identical to that available on the networks and there is a certain delay in updating metrics.

I had previously used Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud to analyze publications. Now that I used it again, I found out that you can now connect the API and create dashboards in your own way, to have more attractive storytelling. Without a doubt, the platform is being strengthened as you can count on the options to display the data.
  • Show metrics
  • Capture the stories
  • Capture the images of each publication
  • Have a widget to see the segments of each platform
  • Maybe integrate a social listening section
  • Create alerts about some type of mention outside our accounts
You can connect the most common social networks to the platform, and it is also updated so that you will have everything integrated into it, to be able to carry out a more robust analysis of your accounts.

We manage a group of freelancers all over the world with several social media accounts. The user groups are using publishing but also different dashboards to manage the daily work.

I use different Dashboards to analyse my freelancers work in the world. It's a big help to also have paid media spends in this as we need to know that the freelancers spend the media budget accordingly.
  • Dashboard Solutions
  • Easy publishing and scheduling
  • Social Listening of competitors
  • Sometimes the settings on the website are not conclusive. e.g. you want to add more users, but you have reached the max number of users. I didn't know and needed to contact the support.
  • Even more variations on the dashboards.
  • More details on competitor listening.
- It's great for analytics to look into the numbers retrospective can give great insights on our performance throughout the last years
- It's not made for managing a whole lot of ads. I think it would be great to have a direct connection with the meta business manager and see ad campaigns as well in the publishing calendar

We use Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud for a wide variety of tasks connected to social media management, ranging from social customer service and case handling, community management, social listening, paid and organic campaign analysis, link in bio functionality, competitive benchmarking, influencer research, post scheduling, reporting, among other uses. The tool provides a great all-in-one solution to help manage social media - previously, this was very fragmented for us, and a number of different tools were being used.
  • Social Listening
  • Analytics and Reporting
  • Post Publishing
  • iOS app
  • Shareable web dashboards
  • Sharing reports with other Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud users can be finicky and a little confusing
I believe Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud provides a solution that would be ideal for most social media marketing teams. It is easy-to-use with an attractive and pleasant user interface, and strikes a nice balance between being simple while still offering advanced functionality where required. Some competing products seem to needlessly complicate some aspects of the user interface and experience, but Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud feels just right for me in this sense.

We use it to track relevant metrics for our content strategy and ensure we’re on track to achieve our goals. The platform provides useful insights and opportunities for us to improve our content performance along with making our content management and approval workflow more efficient. We also use it to handle on our relationship with customers online.
  • Track relevant social media and content metrics
  • Benchmark of the competition
  • Reporting
  • Measuring social media sentiment
  • Comparing data vs. previous periods, like Google Analytics
  • Tracking of Tik Tok metrics
Emplifi is a potent tool for social media content performance analysis and comparing our results with those of our primary competitors. It makes our content scheduling, approvals workflow, and publishing process more efficient. It also help us manage our community management tasks and kee track of our customer care team performance.

We use emplifi to:

- schedule our organic social media content across 4 different channels
- Analyse the performance of our content using custom dashboards
- Consolidate all social queries into one easy-to-use platform
- Create an analysis of our paid content
- create performance review presentations to report to the rest of the organisation.

Previously we had used all native applications to do these tasks, but with Emplifi, we bring it all into one platform, allowing much easier data analysis and content planning, reducing time spent on calculating cross-platform metrics, and creating our own graphs.


  • Publishing - takes a bit of time, but publishing all content together makes planning and execution much more efective
  • Community - really simple one board collecting of all our social messages makes replying simple
  • dashboards - widgets and customisation allow for multiple dashboards tracking various campaigns and goals
  • Publishing - sometimes it is a bit faulty, especially when tagging companies, or editing images natively.
  • lag - sometimes it can lag a bit unless my internet is super fast
  • Linkedin - the analysis of linkedin is much less than meta platforms
Emplifi is really suited to companies looking to bring all their social media operations into one tool, and include some better perfomance metrics than found natively, and have access to quick and easy analysis, to provide insight to the rest of your company. It has quite a lot of tricks in its bag, and is really great if you are simply used to native platforms.

It is perhaps less appropriate if you are really keen on intense scrutiny of competitors. whilst it does have a competitor tracking ability, it only has access to publicly available information, so it is not as detailed as you might want it to be. also - adding extra profiles to track costs money.

We use Emplifi to analyse everything in social media (growth, engagement and sentiments), as well as to schedule and publish content.
  • Scheduling content
  • Monitoring growth and engagement
  • Comparing with other accounts
  • They should improve their AI sentiment tagging as we use to understand how to better do this according to any account
Emplifi it's a great choice for those who want to improve their automatically analysis, by creating specific dashboards.

USE: planning editorial plan, share ed. plan with client and manage rework, data analysis and community management
It helps us to manage different account without using the single platform (META, LINKEDIN, TIKTOK...) but using only one tool. It's also usefull for data elaboration, because we have a lot of account to examinate.
  • planning contents
  • organic data analysis
  • It will be better to manage a single ticket always with the same person
  • Missing functionality: paid media data
USE: for agencies that need to manage many clients; for clients that have a large number of comments/DMs (e.g., ecommerce, food products...) because it allows you to track client conversations, assign sentiment, and check the status of conversations (done, in progress...).

I've been a user of Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud for 3 years now and it was initially brought in because we were looking for an all-in-one solution for a client. Sprinklr was not only confusing and convoluted, but very expensive. After researching a number of solutions, we had an excellent demo and a 2-week trial of the tool. After the trial, we decided to move forward with Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud because we needed a centralized platform to manage all of our social media accounts, in particular, TikTok. Not only could we schedule posts, respond to customer comments, but also monitor metrics and even perform social listening. All of these capabilities were within the tool. Lastly, we also use it for competitive benchmarking to get a better understanding of brand metrics and even plan for upcoming holiday campaigns.
  • Community Management
  • Monitoring Analytics
  • Competitor Benchmarking
  • Content Inspiration
  • Paid Ad Management
  • Social Listening
  • Alerts for Crisis Management (Beyond sentiment or volume shifts)
  • Identification of Top UGC
  • Audience Segmentation
For those looking to move to a more streamlined solution that is intuitive, easy to work with, and account management that is responsive - Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud is a great solution. They particularly excel for brands that have a separate team that handles community management vs. guest service. We have two teams that have two different objectives and the way the tool is designed is perfect for our needs. Both can play in the sandbox at the same time to achieve their objectives. We didn't have that capability with other solutions. Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud is definitely more suited to brands that need an all-in-one solution. If you're only looking for Social listening or Content Planning and Scheduling, I wouldn't recommend this tool for one-offs.

Since I work as analyst for a communication agency, with a focus on social media management, I need a tool to monitor social performance and do my reports. In the past the analytics section was the unique useful for my job, today we use the content section since we need to match the data export with other data taken from other platforms ex. Meta Business Manager. For our department adv campaign management and results are strongly linked to social performance so we need to show organic and paid data together with a specific focus on campaign.
  • dashboard customization
  • innovation
  • user support
  • data campaign integration from ads manager
Due to privacy limitation, online data analysis is more and more complex in comparison with the past. Social Marketing Cloud in my opinion, is one of the most completed and easy to use platform for social performance analysis.

Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud- or Socialbakers a few years ago - is a very handy tool for me to handle community requests, manage my social media editorial schedule, and evaluate almost all the activity I manage on social networks. It's important to me that I use a tool that covers all these different aspects of being a social media manager, and that I don't have to switch back and forth between different tools. Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud offers me exactly that, and except for a few cuts (mostly due to the API of the respective networks), I have everything covered that I need in my everyday work.
  • Community Management
  • Editorial schedule
  • Customized dashboards
  • Dashboard widgets: More transparency
  • Analysis: More frequent queries of the API data
  • Customizable graphs in the Analysis section
If you're a social media manager and you're doing community management, planning editorial content, or evaluations for your product or your customers on a daily basis, Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud helps you keep everything in one place. You don't have to switch between different platforms or use different tools; Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud offers you everything in one intuitive user interface.

I currently work with Emplifi to Social Media Management and Measurement, so scheduling and publishing, managing the incoming conversations with all the company social media profile, analysis, reports also help with relevant data to planning our strategy. Emplifi has simplified things massively, as we have more than 500 profiles to manage. Its a user-friendliness and great customer support.
  • Scheduling and Publishing content at social media profiles
  • Community Manager
  • Analysis and reporting for campaigns
  • Paid metrics
  • Stories for Instagram
Its appropriate for those who have to manage social media profiles, I mean not just publishing contents but for planning and take a deep dive into data information, as yo can see and understand your audience and need, look for the new trends and topics there you can surf on, analyze your campaign performance and compare to the competitors - benchmarking.

  • Organized dasboards
  • Benchmarketing analysis
  • Optimized and all-in-one solution to schedule content
  • Export data to Excel
  • Generating charts
  • Grouping tabs
Emplifi is the best solution that I know in the market. I tried several tools but no ones compare to Emplify. It's so simple to use, very plug and play interface, with all you need in one platform. You can search for data, analysis results and you're still able to schedule content.

We use Emplifi as we embark on a new journey from traditional media to the digital space. The product helped us grow our presence on social media. We also get to check how our competitors work, and the things that we should do to improve ourselves.

Emplifi has always been our go-to tool to check our performance on our social media accounts.
  • Content Manager
  • Determining Reach, Engagements, Interactions
  • Publishing Tools
  • Better Interface
  • Engagement Measuring
  • Missing Data from time to time
All I could say is that Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud is a perfect product for those who want to further strengthen their presence on the digital. It has the complete tools that will equip you all throughout your journey.

Honestly, I was a first time user, but its functionality really guided me all throughout.

Emplifi helps us keep track of our performance vs competition, market trends across the globe and an easy way to summarize across all social media channels.
  • Build various dashboards
  • Easy to get all our analytics in one place
  • compare across various platforms
  • Better listening
  • Better sentiment analysis
Fantastic tool to start your social media listening; easy to build out dashboards to monitor and summarize performance vs competition, across various platforms and regions. We have found it to be optimal tool to measure various performance metrics by channel and all together. Also cost effective compared to other tools out there. Publishing is easy to use as well. Listening capabilities perhaps has to improve compared to others in the space.

The Socialbakers Suite is being mainly used by our Social Analytics team in terms of monitoring and analyzing our own social pages compared to our line of business competitors. The tool addresses the capability of combining all pages by line of business in one view and the ability to create a dashboard and analyze performance across competitors.
  • Combining different social pages in one view > no need to switch across pages for performance monitoring
  • Creating tags for all your content > this helps organize all the posts per campaign and execution
  • Slice and dice the performance dashboard with flexible widgets > allows you to compare performance by labels / campaigns
  • Ability to compare performance from a different duration
  • Expand Twitter metrics in dashboard to include Reach and Impression
  • Ability to ingest Revenue data from social business managers to give a more holistic view
Socialbakers Suite is really suited to address dashboard monitoring tools for businesses with multiple pages. It has the ability to gauge your own performance versus pre-identified competitors. The ability to tag posts makes it seamless in organizing data sets for future campaign analyses.

Socialbakers Suite is being used by our Social Marketing team for analysis purposes. We had trouble with getting a good and automatic overview of our social media efforts. We went with weekly/monthly reports that combined data from our social media(Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram and our own content marketing blog) sources. The report was compiled by hand and it took about 2 hours for each weekly report. We tried to automate the process by getting the data straight from social media platform APIs but that didn't work out because they are with quite limited use.

Socialbakers enabled us to combine data from Google Analytics, Facebook and Instagram (we chose not to monitor Twitter) and display it on dashboards which were easy to use for our social marketing team.
  • Dashboards
  • Comparsions
  • Influencer research
  • Drilling down into Social Media Analytics
  • Dashboard widgets are not flexible - you cannot create a custom widget.
  • Some basic functionality is behind a (huge)paywall - for example, API connection to get the data from Socialbakers to your own data storage.
  • Their pricing is rigid. Same pricing for big markets (Western Europe) and small markets (Eastern Europe). Even though the budgets and markets are way different.
  • Got a vibe of arrogance from customer support when asking for custom widgets and custom plan for extra modules. I'm not going to pay 2000€ a month for target group insights when my potential customer base is ~1 million people.
Socialbakers Suite enables users to get a quick overview of how your social media platforms are performing. The user interface is quite comfortable and clear. Analytics enables users to drill down into data to get useful insights.
We don't use the publishing tool, but that's only because we have other worked out processes already implemented - but I've been told by our social media managers that the tool seems good for managing content creators and publishing post across platforms. It also has a convenient calendar function - but we prefer Facebook own variant.
If you want to get some more insightful(custom) data on your dashboards then you can dream on. As far as I can tell Socialbakers is not interested in developing those options.

Socialbakers Analytics is heavily utilized by strategists across agency disciplines. This includes integrated planning, social, research, analytics, PR and new business personnel. Socialbakers is helpful in providing a mix of basic reporting, owned and competitive content analysis with specific post and brand labeling, and paid optimization insights. Their analytics suite is essential when providing clients with a sense of their place within the social competitive landscape.
  • Post Performance Prediction helps you lower your CPC as well as increase the amount of engagements you receive on your Instagram posts.
  • Quickly and easily understand the paid content strategy of your competitors, but also justify your own promotion budget as a result.
  • Detailed chart that outlines the predicted interactions that each post will receive in the upcoming hours.
  • Socialbakers can improve their influencer identification and evaluation capabilities.
  • Paid post prediction covers organic-only content to inform when it should receive amplification. Being able to predict the future paid performance of a paid post would be beneficial.
  • Social channel credentials are needed for deeper insight tracking.
Competitive Analysis, most of the value your team can gain from the platform comes down to a mix of basic reporting, content analysis (with labeling), and paid optimization. Both the brand strategists and the new business team can use the tool for their unique use cases.

We're using Socialbakers to analyze owned social media performance for our channels, as well as our competitive set. We decided to use Socialbakers instead of native tools or our CMS analytics because it allows us to look at our own performance as well as competitors' performance on the same levels.

This tool has helped me diagnose, and even catch, some things that we were not expecting to see. Once, I determined that a product feed API was down and not generating pins for us on Pinterest because I saw that our content count had flatlines for longer than normal.

I have use several features in Analytics to help me sort and analyze content on the fly, like post tagging and account tagging and analysis is straightforward and user-friendly; you can easily look at performance in whichever way you prefer, in the visual UI, Excel, Dashboard. I also find the output from Socialbakers to be fairly reliable and accurate; I have compared outputs from native and other analytics platforms and the numbers are usually within a reasonable margin.

The predictive analytics on Facebook and Instagram are interesting and can help us understand how to make better creative decisions. They are always taking my feedback on board and always working towards integrating newly available platform data and metrics, though sometimes they are a bit late to the game with new metrics.

  • Data exports to Excel and the API.
  • Online user interface.
  • Predictive analytics for FB and IG posts.
  • Not easy to synch post tagging from CMS.
  • Sometimes difficult to make comparisons with previous time periods (not that this is always the best idea, but we like to look at what we did previously).
  • Benchmarks feature is a bit weak.
It delivers what it promises - to deliver consistently and regularly. The entire platform is quite easy to use and they are improving it all of the time.

We use Socialbakers to help our clients with a particular need for heavy data-based insight.
It's primarily to gather valuable information on how the client performs against competitors, and evaluate the success of our strategies with them. It's used by the social media teams at both our agency and our client's, however the information used is presented at all levels in both organisations.
  • Huge data bank.
  • Backdating of all data
  • Easy to swap profiles - generous 10% churn allowed per month
  • Brilliant insight gathering - unprecedented at gathering and comparing insight from competitors
  • Can get pricy when you're looking at lots of profiles
  • No Pinterest support
If you need strong evaluation of your social media campaign strategy, socialbakers is the market leader, for a reason. It's really accessible.

Our team used Socialbakers Analytics from 2015 - 2016 for social media competitive analysis. Socialbakers offered great reports and insight into how our social media channels compared to the channels of our competitors. The business concerns that Socialbakers addressed for our company was making sure that we kept up with how our competitors were using social media to reach their customers. In most cases we stayed competitive with our competition on social media but Socialbakers showed us several metrics we could improve on.
  • Competitive Analysis was a strong point for Socialbakers when comparing our metrics to our competitors.
  • Facebook Ad analysis was helpful through Socialbakers because it showed us how our ads could perform better.
  • Accurate metrics for Facebook in particular with Socialbakers since Socialbakers is a close partner of Facebook.
  • Socialbakers could have more support based in the United States. We ran into an issue with scheduling time for update calls and receiving feedback from emails because our representative was based on another continent.
  • Socialbakers could offer some additional features that set them apart from their competitors.
  • Socialbakers could be in better contact with their customers from a sales manager and an account manager position.
Socialbakers Analytics is well suited to compare your business' social media channels to the channels of your competitors.

We use Socialbakers Analytics at all social touch points across departments and countries: within marketing, research, PR, corporate communications and customer care. It allows us to track competitors, benchmark ourselves, and easily share information with our C Suite.
  • Incredibly good data visualisation, which is often the 'forgotten last mile' of analytics products: make it very easy to share with Execs without having to pretty it up yourself
  • Great UX, making research quick and fast
  • Best competitor analysis tool on the market
  • Upgrade regularly

Social Bakers Analytics is being used by a variety of different business units across L'Oréal. From the brands themselves to our corporate employer branding team, the tool centralizes the monitoring of the hundreds of social accounts worldwide. Depending on the user, the tool can help be on top of an international fleet of accounts or an entire portfolio of brands in one geographic area. Beyond montinoring our own pages, Analytics helps us keep track of our competitors and compare their performance with our own as a way to level set and benchmark.
  • Easy to use design and interface - the fact that we can easily visualize and navigate makes it easy to digest and find data.
  • Simple reporting - We can quickly download reports that we circulate to different teams and to upper management. After you set up 1 report, you can just schedule it and it arrives in the inboxes of whomever you need.
  • One-stop-shop. Rather than going to each social tool separately, learning many different systems and compiling data into a spreadsheet, we just need to visit one place to see all of our different social platforms.
  • LinkedIn analysis is missing
  • Chinese social media is missing
Ensure that your industry vertical is included in their list of industry benchmarks. If you only have 1 or 2 accounts, it might not be necessary to use Analytics - even though it can help, the cost is most justifiable with a larger portfolio of brands.
