Overall Satisfaction with Buffer

I used Buffer in my previous workplace where I was doing social media management. It was very convenient to use Buffer and it saved me a lot of time. Basically, I scheduled Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram posts via Buffer for several days and then was checking the analytics page to see how successful they were. Before using Buffer, the social media post scheduling process wasn't organized and the efficiency wasn't great. With Buffer the process became more organized and it was a pleasure to use it.
  • Social media scheduling just works. Buffer does it perfectly. I usually connect several social media accounts to my Buffer account and it helps me a lot in organizing the posts for upcoming days or sometimes weeks.
  • The interface is very user-friendly and simple.
  • I used Buffer's mobile app a lot when I was out of the office. It's very helpful and keeps you on track so you can see which posts were posted and how they perform.
  • Sometimes my accounts get disconnected and I don't know why. But it happens very rarely.
  • Posting on Instagram was kind of hard, as it required to open the Buffer app, then open the Instagram app, copy-paste the content to Instagram and then post. As far as I know, it's because of Instagram's policy, not Buffer. Hopefully one day it will be solved.
  • Buffer helped us to have more organized social media management process. There was no need to switch from one social media account to another. You just schedule everything in one place and it does the job.
  • It helped also to follow the results of the posts. Their analytics section is pretty good.
Buffer is really easy to use and with great user experience. it's clean and simple. I tried Hootsuite for a couple of days, but the design and UX at that time weren't great so I switched to Buffer. Also Buffer has another product called Pablo, which is very helpful in creating beautiful images for my social media posts.
Buffer is an awesome product for social media management and scheduling. I used it a lot and it helped me save a lot of time. You can have the posts for upcoming days or weeks ready and quickly schedule them on Buffer and then sit back and enjoy. This is how I used it.
