Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I first began with Scoop.it to discover and share interesting articles with other writers, authors, and aspiring authors. Daily I scour the web for news and changing trends in the self-publishing industry. As an author, I use it to help build my platform and position myself as an expert. As I progressed, I found Scoop.it very powerful in enabling me to share content--and share it quickly. If I find an article worth sharing, I can use the Scoop.it bookmarklet to grab it, write my review, set up relevant tags for SEO, share on multiple social media networks, and even publish to my blog! Content curation with Scoop.it has helped me sharpen my writing and social media skills, learn, teach, and interact with other professionals. Oh, and it's fun, too!
Pros
  • Provides suggestions daily for each of your topics depending on keywords you choose. There is no guesswork about what to share.
  • Allows sharing of your content to various social media outlets with the touch of a button. Your content gets spread quickly.
  • Your own beautiful front page functions as your website. It shows the curator profile, and all your topics.
Cons
  • Low Adoption rate by social media users. Most writers still don't understand how it can benefit their author platform.
  • Pricing for business version can be a bit out of the league of most writers. Full version is $79/month. You can always use the free version.
Likelihood to Recommend
If you're trying to establish yourself as a expert in your field, Scoop.it is a wonderful platform to do this. First ask yourself: Who is my target audience? What am I trying to achieve by using content curation? How will my audience benefit from the information I compile? What is the ease in getting started? How does the platform help me find my topics? How well does the platform help me share?

I love the ease of use, beautiful profile page each user receives, and the ability to share on multiple platforms with the touch of a button. If you don't have articles to share, Scoop.it provides suggestions for you daily. Anyone can set up a page in minutes, set up topics, choose relevant keywords, and begin! It's really that simple.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
The Communications and Marketing office at the University of San Francisco is using Scoop.it to aggregate and curate mentions of the university in social media. It addresses the business problem of being able to curate and create the ongoing story about how the university changes the world from here, based on user-generated content provided by the USF community.
Pros
  • Content Marketing - The ability to monitor for key words, select the best content, edit and create a unique content item with its own URL that links back to the original source, and then simply share that content item through own social media channels.
  • Integration - the monitoring pulls in content and display items from many different sources really well on the topic page. Topics can be configured and embedded into your own website to become a part of your branded platform(s).
  • Flexibility - the possibility to edit everything related to a curated item (headline, image, description, add insights) and still have the necessary link back to the original source built in by default. This saves a lot of time and effort compared to creating separate blog items.
Cons
  • I would love to have the ability to RSS-feed scooped items categorized by tags
  • The e-newsletter extension is promising and really helpful for us. It could be built out more to allow for more flexibility around content arrangement and targeting.
  • The analytics report gives a detailed aggregated overview, but the usability and ability to look at specific scoops could be improved.
Likelihood to Recommend
Scoop.it does have collaboration features so you can have more than one admin add content to a topic, but there is no platform for collaboration or drafting of content. It is easy to try out the free version and get a good idea of what the application does, and then add on features from there.
Return on Investment
  • Better procedures to integrate user-generated content with the USF content management.
  • More efficient social media monitoring and curation procedures

We are constantly assessing our needs to improve the content management, but at this point we are asking how Scoop.it can play a larger role in those procedures rather than looking at options. Scoop.it is a great product with a great team behind it, and we look forward to what will come out of future improvements to the application.
