Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Vista Social to more easily schedule a lot of videos across multiple platforms - Instagram, Facebook & YouTube - it's been an amazing tool so far, easily one of the best investments we've made.

Vista Social helps us save a massive amount of time in working towards meeting our marketing goals - we've tried other platforms but only Vista Social has been able to stand out and overdeliver.

Pros

Vista Social allows us to schedule a lot of content which would otherwise be near impossible to do consistently.
With Vista Social we are able to be present on multiple social media channels without burning out.
With Vista Social we are able to view messages from different platforms and respond accordingly.

Cons

From my perspective, Vista Social has been great and they have been able to manage any issues we've ever had - and they are continually improving which is amazing.
Nothing else that I am aware of - would need to ask my team
Nothing else to say, my team would know more

Return on Investment

The relief Vista Social has brought about is the biggest positive impact and we couldn't ask for more. We've tried other platforms and have been frustrated by the limitations/restrictions - being able to post videos heavily, across multiple platforms, with such a set amount of time actually scheduling the posts has been a game changer.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I needed a tool specifically for LinkedIn as the priority that could do several things - 1) Manage content for my own business. 2) Manage content on behalf of our clients. 3) Be a tool I could recommend for my clients to manage their company page and also employee advocacy. Vista Social can do all three and offers highly competitive plans. What I was most impressed with is the level of support and also the onboarding. Real people are available to help you through every step, although I would say set-up is pretty easy.

Pros

Reporting is great
I love that it pulls in content that was published directly on the platform so you can still track.
Easy to connect the different platforms.

Cons

Shame connections is not available in a lower level plan. I don't want to have to connect using my clients LinkedIn login details to be able to use the platform.

Return on Investment

This will have a positive impact as it will scale with my business and also for my clients.
This will save hours on reporting.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Vista Social helps me manage multiple social media accounts across all platforms so easily. Instead of having to sign out or switch accounts each time, this is the perfect all in one platform for me. The inbox and social listening feature are the most important one for me because it helps me stay on track of all accounts without having to sift through so much information and waste time. It's such a time saver!

Pros

Sorting through all the comments and messages in one place
Automating with easy-to-use templates for DMs to potential customers
Staying track on trends through Social Listening feature
Organizing my content calendar without going through multiple pages

Cons

I haven't really found any issue as I have used many platforms like this, so it was easy to learn

Return on Investment

It is definitely a worthy investment because it saves you so much time
