Sprout Social Completes My Job
What do you like best about the product?
Posting: I love that we can collaborate when creating and scheduling posts, quickly move things around, duplicate, schedule at the right time, and optimize our image dimensions all in the platform. I, alongside our team, am able to properly manage the content for so much of our platforms.
Competitiveness: I also love that we can compare our performance to our competitors and see where we are in realtime in order to continue elevating ourselves. This allows us to shift our strategy by continuously monitoring the competition.
I use Sprout Social every single day and it has allowed me to produce outstanding results for the company, almost doubling our audience, which is our primary goal.

What do you dislike about the product?
There were a few moments in my reporting where the information gathered from Meta was inconsistent. I appreciate the warnings that they give, and can understand when it is out of Sprout Social's control. However, when I am preparing these reports, the accuracy of the data is absolutely paramount, and there's no retroactive actions taken to mention whether the data has been successfully retrieved and updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprouts entire platform is the most valuable thing to me as the end-user. Being able to manage 10 profiles at once allows me as the sole user responsible for the company's social media, to quickly plan, optimize and execute digital strategies with just a few clicks. I'm able to report on the profile activity across several platforms, compare our insights and posting habits against our competitors, and review the general social activity from the dashboard.
Effortless Tracking of Comments Across All Platforms
What do you like best about the product?
This is my home base for all things social. I am in the dashboard every day, and I love how easy it is to keep track of any comments or reviews left across all platforms in an instant, and remaining within Sprout Social to respond to them all (or even hide comments if needed).
What do you dislike about the product?
Being a one person social team, I would love to have a wider access to all the resources within the platform without the jump in cost to do so.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout helped me minimize time spent scheduling posts, responding to comments, and gathering analytics by having it all in one place.
Effortless Scheduling and Insightful Analytics for Social Media Pros
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Sprout is its very user-friendly scheduling feature. It allows me to schedule my posts across various platforms with ease. I also appreciate the analytics features just as much. Both of these aspects are excellent for social media professionals and really assist in making well-informed decisions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main drawbacks I notice with Sprout Social are that the tagging process could be more user-friendly, and I've experienced being contacted multiple times by different sales representatives trying to sell me a product—the Influencer Program—that I already bought. This repeated outreach isn't ideal, and it gives the impression that there's a lack of transparency regarding which clients have purchased which products.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Without Sprout, managing and calculating analytics across several platforms would be much more challenging.
Sprout Schedule and Analytic Reiew.
What do you like best about the product?
Scheduling and Reports. The scheduling feature is easy to use and can hold multiple different accounts
What do you dislike about the product?
Some don't like that selecting a social account isn't more obvious.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Advocacy on why we do what we do in the social media space. The analytic numbers help us to justify why we spend the money on resources in this area.
Effortless Social Media Management with Powerful Scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the ease of use and having a tool that meets my social media management needs. I like that the smart inbox allows me to streamline responses to incoming comments and messages, and it makes it easy to work cross-functionally with colleagues. My most used tool is definitely the Publishing feature, and I love that I'm able to duplicate posts when scheduling across channels.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were a way to schedule Instagram stories with a link without having to natively post within the app. I was also disappointed that Pinterest doesn't allow video scheduling through Sprout. I'm noticing my profiles disconnect frequently, and some Pinterest posts have not been posted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sprout checks a lot of boxes for my team. The most beneficial features are the smart inbox, analytics, and publishing.
Streamlined Social Posting with Easy Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I love the capability of Sprout Social to streamline all my social posting into one platform. This functionality simplifies the entire posting process and makes my workflow significantly faster. Additionally, I greatly appreciate the ability to post to multiple platforms at one time, which is incredibly valuable. This feature eliminates several steps that I would normally have to go through, allowing me to log in to all our platforms from one site. It saves me time and ensures that I can convey the same message across all my platforms effortlessly. The ease of initial setup of Sprout Social was also a big plus for me, as I found it very easy to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find tagging people and accounts on different platforms to be slow. Sometimes Sprout Social can't find the right account, which can be frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Sprout Social to centralize all my social media posting, which streamlines the process and speeds up my workflow by eliminating unnecessary steps and allowing the same message to be posted across multiple platforms simultaneously.
Efficient for Community Management, Needs AI Enhancements
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the tag feature in Sprout Social, which significantly facilitates managing sentiment analysis and trending topics. By tagging all incoming content with a sentiment tag such as neutral, negative, or positive, I can effectively track the issues players experience. The ability to assign tags for different types of content, like content response, complaints, and inquiries, makes managing our community substantially more organized and insightful. This manual tagging process provides more accurate and nuanced sentiment analysis, given that automated options sometimes fail to account for sarcasm and tone. The initial setup of Sprout Social was fairly simple, making it accessible and easy to integrate into our existing processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the lack of a feature to bulk tag specific posts limiting, which hampers efficiency when managing large volumes of content. Additionally, the automated sentiment analysis isn't entirely accurate and fails to interpret contexts like sarcasm or tone. This inaccuracy requires manual intervention to ensure correct sentiment tagging. I also feel that the AI advancements in reporting could be enhanced and should continue to develop further. An 'activity log' is missing, which would be beneficial to track who added what tags and when, enhancing accountability and traceability within the team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Sprout Social for consumer customer service, brand health, and sentiment analysis. The tag feature simplifies managing sentiment and trending topics, enhancing my ability to track issues like inquiries and complaints.
Social Inbox Feature Transformed Our Social Media Strategy Across The University
What do you like best about the product?
The social inbox feature has been the most helpful feature our team utilizes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pay-blocks for social listening features. No major pain point with the platform.

We run about 7+ social media channels through Sprout Social, and it has allowed us to keep tabs on all these platforms and our community's engagement across these channels while also allowing us to connect, engage, and collaborate with all of the specific program and user accounts in our university community, which our overall brand account seeks to be active with,
Effortless Multi-Channel Management, Super Easy Setup

The ability to manage multiple channels simultaneously is incredibly valuable as it enhances my productivity and social media presence. Additionally, I found the initial setup of Sprout Social to be super easy, which made the transition smooth and stress-free.

I find the format for some tasks challenging, such as making tagging easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Great for Managing Social Media, But Publishing Needs Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the link in bio feature, which we use frequently for creating shoppable posts and linking content. This feature is particularly helpful as it extends the functionality of Instagram, making it a platform for direct purchases, which enhances the value of our social media strategy. I also find the overall feed style design pleasant to look at, providing a cohesive view of updates across platforms. This design, although not directly used by me, is significantly beneficial for our social media support team as they engage with and manage community interactions. Additionally, the initial setup of Sprout Social was extremely easy, thanks to the helpful representatives from Sprout who ensured everything went smoothly. We faced no issues during the setup, which made getting started with Sprout Social a hassle-free experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find publishing to be the biggest issue with Sprout Social. There are times when I face challenges with certain nuances on each platform, like customizing content and selecting thumbnails due to the social media platforms continually changing their dimensions and publishing methods. Furthermore, I have encountered issues where posts scheduled through Sprout Social did not publish due to errors that I don't know how to fix. Occasionally, certain functionalities such as posting videos to Pinterest through Sprout were not available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Sprout Social to see all social media platforms in one spot for calendar publishing and manage community engagement through comments and messages.
