Overall Satisfaction with Clearview

We were looking for a way to increase engagement of our team members on social media. We spend a lot of time curating content for the agency, but then only rely on the agency/company social channels to push the content out. We realize the value of having individuals share the company content to their networks. The reach is far greater, and it can feel more authentic. Our efforts to gain buy in from the team continued to fall short when we ask them do manually do things. So we were looking for a solution to make it seem a bit more effortless.
  • Easily linking to social accounts
  • Intuitive navigation for creating and viewing available shares
  • Good analytics on share performance
  • Ranking and scoring system (badges)
  • Share now vs Share with Peaktime is good
  • Not great for sharing Social Media posts, only content that lives on a web page
  • Sharing across multiple channels simultaneously is available, but can be confusing
  • Facebook shares work differently than LinkedIn and Twitter
  • Need to relink social accounts periodically
  • If you're investing more than a nominal amount of time creating content or researching content that needs to be shared, this is a no brainer.
  • The EMV function allow you to get an estimated value of the post shares and their engagement, providing a pretty good picture of what it would cost to earn that type of impression/engagement value.
We started out with Clearview as a pilot at no cost. After using for a time we determine that the platform met our needs and ultimately the return will be there. We did not pilot the other alternatives out there. For the most part, we are happy with the platform.
We haven't had much of a need to leverage the support for Clearview, the functionality has always been there, and the platform does seem to be making continual improvements is usability, navigation and overall functionality.
The user interface is fairly intuitive. It's not hard to find your content, set up your shares, or view your results/analytics. As mentioned, the content available for sharing within Clearview isn't great, but I don't place a ton of value on that, as this is likely intended for more sharing of original, unique content. I do think there still can be some improvements made to setting up shares across multiple platforms at the same time, but overall, it does the job fine.

Like most platforms, its only as good as how well and how often you use it. It definitely is a good platform for pushing out content to your employee base or team. You need to have a decent size list of people to realize its true capability/value/reach. It requires someone to be regularly loading in content for shares and pushing them out to the individuals. But either from an email or when logged into the platform, a share can be done with just a few clicks.
