  • The reporting functionality is robust - I spend a lot of time building / adjusting views and saving them. It would be nice if more reports were available out of the box.

  • Allows people to join and collaborate in different touch points
  • Timely notifications allows people to collaborate when needed
  • Customizable for your specific needs and wants
  • If there's a URL on the email headline and I click it, it will take me to the URL as opposed to the Welcome ticket
  • I can access the item from the email and I don't have to login, but if I access the website directly, then it asks me to login

  • We're looking toward a headless architecture. We're looking forward to once again being able to be composable, being able to scale our product and our program. Some of the additional features is we're a multi-brand organization, but we all need to fall under one umbrella and that's one of the main components for us that actually allows us to take that next step.
  • The current user interface that we have has been a little bit challenging. Coming from one platform to another user interface has been a challenge, but based on the new update and release, that's going to address a lot of our challenges. By being able to have that new user interface, we've also painted ourselves into a corner in some aspects. As we go through and kind of re-architect, we're going to make sure we use the product as it's intended to be used.

  • Enables cross-functional collaboration in a centralized environment
  • Assures standards in processes while providing visibility into content development
  • Replaces spreadsheets and file server-based asset management
  • Provides incremental value with integrated stock image and AI generation tools
  • UX needs to be rethought. In my opinion, text is very small and often not intuitively laid out
  • In my opinion, better integration with other Optimizely products: expectation is that it should dovetail into ODP, CMS, content recommendations and Delivera. In my opinion the current stack integration is not cohesive
  • In my opinion, library needs to be improved with more of a Finder or File-system-like interface. In my opinion, it's very hard to organize assets that have been placed in the top-level folder by default. Better search based on file name and content would also be helpful.
  • In my opinion, there's a big gap between a collaborator and a guest.

  • Organizing our content
  • Staying up to date with corporate requierments
  • User interface is great!
  • Works fast
  • Reliable platform
  • Remove the preview option when clicking once. It'll be nicer if we click and being provided with both options instead.
  • Provide the option to download an entire folder of docs without entering to the folder itself.
  • 'Watch' option for specific docs, not just for folders...

  • The UI is intuitive and easy for users to navigate, and also easy for me to manage.
  • NewsCred constantly rolls out great new features that solve user pain, like Track Changes, Version History and automated suggestions for posts to create and boost based on their performance.
  • Support is very helpful when anything goes wrong, and the account reps are very proactive in gathering feedback about needed features.
  • The rollout of new features can sometimes be confusing due to the pace at which the dashboard visibly changes, but this is a good problem to have as it means they are making changes based on costumer feedback.

  • Customer Service: They'll contact you with a "we're looking at your issue" email within the hour, even on weekends and holidays. Beyond solving your issues/problems with the software, they'll also follow up later to make sure you don't have additional associated issues.
  • Live Analytics: You're given a snapshot of how your blog content is doing at any point in time, since they've been tracking your posts/content. You can compare this month's traffic to last year's trafffic during this same month. Other data points include: Unique Visitors, Average Attention Time, Pageviews, Engagement Rate, etc...and you'll even get referral traffic source. There's much more that I'm leaving out here.
  • CMP User Interface (UI): Love the easy to use interface to upload blog posts, to use for editing and publishing content, and broadcasting social shares. Besides easily identifiable icons, you can create/edit content in the WYSIWYG or use the html view to make sure everything looks exactly how you prefer. Another cool thing is that the CMP auto-embeds live links of social updates (like Youtube, Twitter, Instagram) for more dynamic blog posts.
  • Cutting and pasting into the CMP can bring in some weird html and spacing issues and sometimes even with the auto-embedded social shares. This is an issue with freelancers, more than with in-house writers, but needing how to read/handcode html means only a few people on our team can prep and "fix" weirdness in the content.
  • It'd be great if custom modules had the same WYSIWYG functionality. We had NewsCred create an area where we write an intro, to "personalize" each post to our brand voice. But, it requires the person writing the intro to know html, since the WYSIWYG feature is missing.

  • The publishing platform is extremely easy to use and serves all of our blog publishing needs.
  • The analytics function is great and provides us with real-time visibility to performance.
  • The team is the best thing about working with Newscred. They are extremely knowledgeable and responsive, and they're proactive about coming to us with suggestions about how to improve the performance of our content. Whenever we have an issue with or a question about the platform, they're responsive to our needs. We find their advice to be spot-on and insightful, and the relationship we have with them delivers a lot of value.
  • More sophisticated formatting capability in the publishing tool would be appreciated.
  • The analytics functionality seems still to be under development, but it could be more robust.
