Plenty of tools
What do you like best about the product?
It has to plenty of tools and I enjoy the sentiment indicator as a tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
Somewhat of a learning curve / not enough easy to use guides outside of training courses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me schedule content and keep track of what people are saying online.
Complicated to look for
What do you like best about the product?
It gives a great view of the things we take care of for our business, and it's little friendly with the information
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes looking for dashboards it's a little complicated as ti does not describes the usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It gives an easier visibility of the interaction from the support and the customer.
Worth it
What do you like best about the product?
The approval process for posts is incredibly helpful, especially when you have a team working across various platform. The calendar view is useful, as you can see all posts across platforms. We haven't ever reached out to custer support, but we've received alot of emails from the customer support team if we did need help. The free 30 day trail was crucial for making a case to exces why it was worth the cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's expensive! There are A LOT of features to parse through (a positive and negative). The UI seems to change/update a lot, which can be challenging for my team to keep up with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We tried just a traditional spreadsheet to organize all our posts, but it was too much to manage, and it didn't allow for an approval process. My team would post things that I didn't think was high quality. Sprout lets you approve individual posts, making that process/management much easier and quicker.
Sprout Review
What do you like best about the product?
Reporting is a strong suit for this tool, as many tools can schedule posts.
What do you dislike about the product?
The value vs price. Many tools can do more than sprout when scheduling posts for less money. The add-on fees via cross-selling are a big negative a lot of tools won't do, ie. jira vs click up
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling out content for multiple clients is more efficient than posting natively
Wonderful When Comparing Company Insights
What do you like best about the product?
I like how we are able to view the insights of any company. Everything is detailed and easy to read, making it easier to compare our company to others.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it takes a while for the company insights to load after adding a new company. I would like to see instant updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout Social allows me to view analytics and insights of many companies. This is solving the problem of improving our company's user engagement and platform base. By looking at how other companies are using Social Media, it allows our company to become inspired and try out new tacts to grow our social media prescence.
A great tool to consolidate all of your social media tasks
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see all comments and metrics in one place is such a time saver. I use it on a daily basis and rarely ever do I find myself getting lost in the software. Overall it is really simple to use and took little time to integrate Sprout into my workflow. The pro level has some amazing tools for automating when to post and gaining insight into our audiences interactions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The price point feels a little high for the standard accout. With so many features added from standard to pro, it feels like the price point should be much lower especially for those who only want to manage their own company's socials and need a time saving tool for those wearing multiple hats.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Posting on multiple channels at once. We are a small team and having all of the information in one spot is essential to our effeciency.
Working well for my summer internship!
What do you like best about the product?
For my internship, my team was able to assign me a specific role with limited permissions (primarily being able to submit work for approval instead of posting directly to our accounts) thus making it easy to see the two-step approval.
The character counting feature is incredibly helpful except for on platforms where we have premium accounts that can post above the default character limit. In these cases I have to submit my work to my managers through Slack and have them upload the content to get around Sprout's character restrictions (it won't allow you to submit a post that exceeds the default character count).
Accessing content from the asset library is intuitive.

What do you dislike about the product?
In the two-step approval process, the software does not allow me to access/see the original text I submitted (in order to compare/learn from the edits that were made) unless I save my work separately somewhere else. This makes the two-step editing process a less valuable teaching tool than it could be.
Sprout currently lacks specific features for certain social platforms, including the ability to add corresponding links for Instagram stories.
