"User Friendly and Affordable"
What do you like best about Buffer?

What I like the most about Buffer and what I believe is most helpful is how easy it is to use to schedule your posts on the different platforms, I also like how it shortens links.

What do you dislike about Buffer?

What I quite don't like is that your accounts can be unlinked and you need to Contact an Admin in your organization to manage channels to reconnect them, I believe that can be a little bit challenging when you and the admin don't are near to do so.

What problems is Buffer solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me as a Community Manager to schedule all the posts I want to post on the different social media platforms, so it also helps me do more activities without worrying about manually posting them.

Buffer can post to social media on all platforms in one convenient location. I like that they also allow you to customize each platform with specific tags and hashtags that drive traffic to your posting.

Uploading and posting images can be clunky. It would help to have a preview feature before the posting goes live.

What problems is Buffer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Posting to social media can be very time consuming. But for as allowed us to reduce the amount of time we spend in this activity.

"Great resource for administration, scheduling and analysis of social networks without wasting time"
What do you like best about Buffer?

So far, we have done very well with Buffer; we use it to analyze, manage and schedule posts for the organization's social media accounts without hiccups. I like that it has such a simple user interface; mastering the system has taken very little time because all of its functions are easy to understand and get up and running. The configuration is simple, and they constantly apply improvements and updates that optimize its functionality.

What do you dislike about Buffer?

Various hashtags are not supported, and the analytics capabilities are good but still have some room for improvement.

What problems is Buffer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Buffer has everything we need to perform flawless and seamless social media management; all posts scheduled through this program have been published according to schedule. The functions it integrates are easy to use, it has even been straightforward to train new users, and the role-based access has made it easy for each user to perform their tasks properly without intervening in other processes.

"Quick and Reliable for Social Networking"
What do you like best about Buffer?

The price makes it accessible for everyone while its effectiveness can't be denied! It's our recommendation as well - you'll find yourself thankful when managing your social networking accounts becomes easy with just one platform

What do you dislike about Buffer?

Glitches are my worst enemy when it comes to working on a project. While uploading multiple photos, there have been glitches. This should not be ignored as companies don't have enough resources for single projects, so we must tackle these issues quickly with attention given at every turn!

What problems is Buffer solving and how is that benefiting you?

What's not to love? With one place for almost all the features you need in your campaign, this powerful and interactive software is a must-have!

"I loved Buffer's management for social media and the Buffer Analyze option."
What do you like best about Buffer?

The management tool was really good. Very easy to schedule on multiple channels at the same time. The analytics with Analyze were the best for the money I've ever seen.

What do you dislike about Buffer?

Buffer was only for Social Media Management and Analytics. There wasn't anything available for email, ad spend tracking, SEO management, etc. My team might have been able to keep buffer if it was an all-inclusive tool.

What problems is Buffer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Buffer solved our problem of managing 10+ accounts easily and scheduling posts. Buffer Analyze made quarterly reports and metrics tracking incredibly easy and clear. Many metrics included percent change from the last period which was so useful and cut my report building time in half.
