Chose Kapost
None - I did not look at other competitors or evaluated them. I did hear word of mouth that Wrike is a main competitor and offers a very good product that rivals Kapost reputation and features.
Chose Kapost
Workfront has a lot of great features, but Kapost was the right tool for what we needed at the time. With a team of our size, we had to make sure we weren't biting off more than we could chew and the project never got off the ground. We had to be thoughtful with how we rolled …
Chose Kapost
I've used basic tools like SharePoint in the past as a content repository, but it's not user friendly, not well organized, hard to manage and not well-suited for marketing content (version control issues, etc. ). Get a dedicated tool!
Chose Kapost
ISI listing from Thomson Reuters returns bigger and more narrowed lists. If you need a narrowed list go with them. If you want a large party internal [tool] deploy Kapost, it works just fine. I also have found that the design team behind Aprimo has a bigger design background …

Kapost solves many project management aspects of creating marketing content. The automated workflows allow for faster setup of common assets and automatically remind team mates of deadlines and upcoming requests. It streamlines content creation. Hootsuite Enterprise was made …
Chose Kapost
To be honest, I've only joined the team here at SolidFire this quarter (it's my understanding that before Kapost, there was no content management system, though). But in the past, I've used WordPress way more extensively than we do here -- effectively as the in-house CMS. …
Chose Kapost
Kapost is really designed for content production and management, not more broadly for project management like Basecamp and JIRA. It's a very hybrid product that straddles tools: CMS, automated workflow management, DAM (less so, but sort of), and has unique features that make it …

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
It's relatively simple to use with a familiar interface. They have a fair few templates ready to go to get the creative juices flowing. There is a fair bit you can do to customise the designs. The UX could do with some improvements, but overall they have a lot of flexibility/options built in.
Looking forward to seeing where they go.

I think the filters within the custom fields and custom details is its strongest feature for us. So I would say, the more content you have, the more use you'll get out of Kapost, especially if you need to organize your content in a lot of different ways (as we do for our targeted marketing). We still format edit/publish blogs via WordPress (although we put the draft in Kapost), but blogs aren't necessarily our #1 thing. Perhaps, for people who are really blog-centric, another platform may be better. Kapost is really good, I think, for copy that has a lot of hands on it, and can really benefit from well-structured work flows and a really comprehensive metadata system.

  • Sets you up with a strategist. You are able to be in constant communication through Kapost with your strategist and send one another working proofs and comments.
  • Unity - it has made all our email campaigns have a similar look and feel. Kapost has shown results on the appropriate amount of images to use and the type of language that works.
  • Stay on track - each person is notified when the role before theirs is complete so they know when it is their turn to act upon something.

Cons
  • Needs more templates
  • Needs a bit of a UX revamp
  • Options need to be more intuitive/clear

  • Search is valuable but the key words seem to take a while for the system to find, I have to use multiple word choices or switch to a specific collection.
  • I think some type of links from search could be useful.
  • Layout isn't the prettiest.

We are using some other systems that might have replaced Kapost, but none of them had the workflow functionality we were looking for. So, we're sticking with Kapost for now.

The calendar view is a great feature and so are the custom views. It is relatively easy to see a clear view of what content the user is responsible for and then the due dates associated to it. The ability to create and update workflows for the team is easy to navigate and keeps us on track.

The reputation of the product matches up to its reputation as one of the leaders in the space. I love that you can share and access content at your fingertips from anywhere. The downside is that it does not have the prettiest interface but you can get over this with its functionality.

Return on Investment
  • Easier to create ad creatives and social media posts

  • Kapost streamlined a lot of different processes across marketing.
  • We hope that people are finding assets they need rather than requesting new ones get created.
  • Having a central location for assets has helped to prevent outdated documents from appearing in different locations.
