Overall Satisfaction with Buffer

We used Buffer to schedule retweets of our content, a functionality that the other tools we were using did not support. We also used their Pablo tool for creating images for Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and receive their weekly blog emails.
  • Buffer's ability to schedule social shares ahead of time was HUGE for our organization - it allowed us to break up our content without having to manually login and re-tweet things real-time.
  • Buffer has a really clean interface.
  • I wish Buffer would expand the creative constraints on Pablo. Right now there aren't that many fonts or creative liberties we can take, so it makes it difficult to stay on brand.
  • Buffer made us a more efficient team.
Buffer is a great addition to Hootsuite Enterprise since Hootsuite doesn't allow you to schedule RTs at this time. However, now that Hootsuite has rolled out its library of images, it there is less need for that functionality in Buffer. I don't think Hootsuite lets you edit images, yet.
Buffer is great as an additional tool for your social strategy, it's cheap and very intuitive. It cannot, however, stand on its own as the only tool your organization uses.
