Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I'm the Chief Executive Dreamer and co-founder at Explore ProTech Entrepreneurial Haven. I've been using Zoho Social on the Free Trial Version for the past 30 days. I have experience with many different social marketing platforms and Zoho compares really well. I love it. It's user-friendly and gives me all the different reports I need in order to be able to run successful social marketing campaigns. Absolutely in love with the product.

Pros and Cons

Provides reports with insightful insights that helps me to make the best decisions regarding past and future campaigns.
Easily schedule posts on all platforms.
Suggests best times for posts to be scheduled to attract maximum engagement.

Would be great if I could see personalized suggestions on how to improve my social media marketing.
Would be great if there was even more lead generation support.
Would be great if there were even more work I could do from my side in order to gain further free trial periods.

Return on Investment

Currently our ROI for using Zoho Social is positive.
We are still however, in very early stages of using the software.
We expect an even greater return on investment in the near future.

Alternatives Considered

Vendasta

Zoho Social is way better than Vendasta, simply because of the user-friendly features. It takes minutes to load, create and schedule posts at the times when most engagement will be achieved. I can tag people straight from the platform and on Vendasta I used to have to refresh the connections of software almost everytime I logged in, whilst I haven't had to do this once on Zoho Social yet.

The support from Zoho Social has been incredible without fail.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you want to easily schedule social posts to go out on Linkedin, Twitter, G-Suite, Facebook & Instagram - Zoho Social is perfect.

If you want to easily tag people mentioned in your social posts on Linkedin, Twitter, G-Suite, Facebook & Instagram - Zoho Social could still improve a bit in making this functionality easier to use... Although on most other similar software platforms this functionality is completely missing so they already a step ahead here too.
