To be honest, I prefer Rafflecopter over Woobox. Good product, but I feel like Rafflecopter has more to offer the user.

We previously used Second Street for our promotions needs. Unfortunately we needed to cut costs and we weren't generating enough revenue to make the partnership work for us.

I like Pagemodo for the different aspects it offers for all social media and creating custom cover pages.

Woobox is a great promotion product to use, especially if you are looking to cut costs. Woobox offers affordable options for those looking to run contests and sweepstakes. Our company is on an enterprise plan so we had to invest a few months to figure out a model that would work for us. Woobox was helpful in our transition to their platform. Woobox offers robust reporting as well which is important for all aspects of our business.

It is very fast. The only thing that has taking any sort of time is when it imports photos or videos from platforms such as Instagram or Twitter. But this is more due to refresh rates than the actual program.
