Enjoyment collaborating with first-tier social platform vendor

It's a first tier social platform that assists our business with social media management and employee advocacy. The dashboard is easy to use, intuitive and provides all of the macro requirements our marketing team needs to fulfil their business needs.

The proposed cost was a huge consideration but thankfully we were able to negotiate a fair and reasonable deal that worked for all parties.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout allows our team to manage all of our brand's channels in the one platform and ensuring time and operational efficiencies for all involved. It also allows us to maintain a high standard of customer experience in line with other representations of our brand.

Overview of posts in the past and scehduled in the future. Ability to adjust/edit posts and work collaboratively with our marketing agency.
Advocacy Program Admin/Social Manager
What do you like best about the product?
I love the advocacy integration feature. We can utilize our own employees to help increase our reach on specific content. I already love the scheduled publishing tool in sprout let's us stay within the timewindow for campaigns and utilizing the reports tool to see what content reasonates with our audience. The tool itself is defintetly user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
More features on the advocacy side where we can build out a hub. As far as reporting I hope they go more in depth on what each number mean across all platforms rather than just providing a pie chart. Customer support would be able to revis some things such as copy for invite when inviting an employee to the company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The listening tool gives us an insight on the hardships our customers are experiencing with us. Reporting also s us an insight on what type of content our customers would live to see moving forward.
Great Features But You Will Pay for Them
What do you like best about the product?
Best features:
- Interface - incredibly intuitive and user-friendly

- The Arboretum social community is great!
- Sprout Social blogs are very informative
- Reporting tools are better than most of the tools on the market now.

What do you dislike about the product?
Cons:
- Price - a LOT of features (including some of the best features Sprout has to offer) are hidden behind levels of payment. It's super pricey even just for basic plans with basic features.
- Mobile app needs help. It seems there's always a glitch with the mobile app - captions not copying when you go to IG to post, looong loading time for mobile publisher posts, posts created from mobile don't always show up when you look for them on desktop, app crashes (I have the most current version of the app and I will occasionally delete it and reinstall but the issue persists)
- A known issue that graphics, especially with text on them, post blurry. so if you're sharing an image from Canva or Adobe, you'll want to ensure it is at least 2x resolution. For example, if you want to post a 1080x1080px image via Sprout, ensure you download that image from your design tool at 2,160x2,160px when you add it to Sprout. So if Sprout says it's too big, then choose a mobile publisher or post it natively in the social platform.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling posts, responding to messages/comments, generating reports
New to Sprout, getting the hang of it, but a lot of potential
What do you like best about the product?
Allows a lot of information to be readily and easily accessible, with a lot of features that can be used to not only address concerns but also plan posts, and makes reaching out easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
As someone who is new to the program it does take some getting used to. Some things will need practice, and using their online training courses are very helpful on how to work with the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping in recognizing when people who interact with us are happy or unhappy, and why that is, making it easier for us to address concerns.
Using Sprout has not been as simple as we had hoped or had been promised.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Sprout is that I have to open fewer tabs, and being able to upload videos directly from Google Drive is nice.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not possible to upload custom thumbnails for TikTok or Instagram reels, we didn't get access to Twitter Media until we were in the second month of use, and not until after we complained. We had a difficult time getting in touch with anyone to answer our questions. It logs us off of Google Drive every few minutes, and if we had done any work before that issue is noticed, we have to redo everything. There are frustrating restrictions on the size of custom thumbnails when we can use them that do not exist on individual platforms. Overall, it has been a very expensive way to spend the exact same amount of time posting as we were before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quite honestly, it is currently causing more problems than it is solving for our organization. Our engagement has also been severely negatively impacted since we started using Sprout.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that Sprout Social would allow us to "enable" the comments on specific posts to reference the additional messages.

I am not especially thrilled with the way some of our social accounts need mobile reminders to upload the post.

Sprout Social is solving our problems with ensuring content is scheduled.
