Adobe Social: It Just Makes Sense
Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Social
My experience using Adobe Social (AS) was in the capacity of utilizing functions of real-time tracking, customer outreach and solutions, and search analytics for Cengage Learning.
As a Digital Media Planner overseeing several corporate accounts with multiple social channels, the versatility of the content creation interface coupled with the versatility of managing a large number of accounts made the responsibilities of the role infinitely easier. The multi-level approval for scheduling content also made communicating with supervisors and other contributors much less stressful. Adobe Social's timeline scheduling tool just makes sense, and it's a wonder more interfaces don't follow suit.
In addition, the analytic features of Adobe Social are outstanding. Keeping on top of several pages with audiences of +10,000 can be daunting, especially with a consumer-faced product that can be frustrating to some users. Adobe Social's real-time updates (including emotional metrics, which is astoundingly impressive) make managing customer solutions from a social interface much easier.
Overall, Adobe Social is a product I would love to work with in every position (past and future) I have in Digital Media.
- Timeline Management: Managing several accounts across multiple social channels is made infinitely easier through AS. After using programs such as Hootsuite and other Chrome based extensions, Adobe Social is equaled by none.
- Real-Time Tracking - Many Google based search tracking programs that I've used in the past can get backed up from processing such massive amounts of data, while no such issue is experienced by Adobe Social. Segmenting metrics based on emotional tone in content is an outstanding feature.
- I think better exporting tools and features should be utilized. Adobe Social can be a great interface, but it can be difficult to effectively generate exports with selective data sets.
