Shoutlet is infinitely more advanced than SocialMadeSimple. It is a much more complex and in-depth platform. We actually changed to SocialMadeSimple after Shoutlet and I miss how easy to use and advanced it was in comparison. It was a money decision but if they were the same …

The main reason that we selected Shoutlet over other competitors was the ease of use, content tagging and ability to work seamlessly across a variety of functions. It was in a sense the entire package in once place. Social content management, social listening, social analytics …

The user interface for Co-Tweet was much more easier to use and navigate; it didn't have so many layers to peel back.

Shoutlet is one of the better social media management tools out there. It was a valuable tool to our large credit union which definitely needed a management tool for its increasing customer service issues arising on social media. The ability for our team to work together and …

I don't use Shoutlet anymore as I'm no longer with the company that did. Shoutlet had already been decided on before I took the role and we were looking at other options when I left the position.

Shoutlet has far better reporting tools than HootSuite, which is important to us.
Chose Shoutlet (Discontinued)
Shoutlet looks and works head and shoulders above Hootsuite (particularly the free version). With great customer support, clean user interfaces, an easily accessible calendar, incredible tracking options and the versatile contests feature I truly feel all of our social media …

Other tools offer superior community management options. Shoutlet's reporting tools and integration with Kenshoo are superior. Integrated canvas pages make the platform stand out. The main reason we selected Shoutlet was due to the integrated canvas pages.

We evaluated over 10 products in addition to the one we were using at the time. I am not comfortable naming them but some were better in specific areas but less broadly focused. Our criteria focused on automation, approvals, record retention, legal discovery and reputation …

There are many social media management platforms on the market today, but Shoutlet is (by far) the most all-inclusive product I have had the privilege of using on a daily basis. From posting across multiple channels, to easy-to-build Facebook tabs and contests, as well as …

We found that Shoutlet rose to the top both in terms of software and in the people behind it. The software is well designed, diverse and easy to use. We also rated the customer service of the Shoutlet team to be top notch. Their support staff is intelligent, responsive and …

While the other social media management platforms each had their own strengths, Shoutlet seemed to have the best overall package of features, usability, and price. Shoutlet also had the best reseller opportunities, so that was a big positive in our evaluation.

Prior to Shoutlet, we used HootSuite Pro, and we still actually use it on occasion. HootSuite has a great product but we found that Shoutlet offered a more robust, valuable product that helped us meet our needs better. We also explored Offerpop, but again, we found that …

Shoutlet was more robust than Tweetdeck, and of course could handle multiple types of social accounts, while Tweetdeck only handled our Twitter accounts at the time. But I continued to use Tweetdeck for it's language translation capabilities. While not perfect translations by …

I have not evaluated other tools. Shoutlet was in place at my organization when I began and I do not see any reason to re-evaluate other tools. Shoutlet meets and exceeds our needs.

Easiest one to answer: Shoutlet is easy to use. The whole idea of using one platform to manage social is to make it easier for us. Shoutlet is clean, intuitive, and just plain simple (yet lets us look at a complex amount of data). Other platforms can take longer to navigate …

Cons
  • Couldn't tag other pages directly from Shoutlet (ie: posting a Mashable post and tagging Mashable).
  • Had to manually set the best time for it go out when a lot of other platforms have the capability to set the best posting time for you.
  • No guarantee on quality of photo size.

We have been using Shoutlet for so long, and have seen so much growth and versatility, I believe we are confident that all of our social media management needs are being met with Shoutlet. It really helps that the Shoutlet team has open to recommendations in terms of usability and are interested in meeting our specific needs.

Usability
While some things do require a little training, a quick phone training session or reading an online guide usually suffices. I've never needed multiple training sessions for any part of Shoutlet. As someone with very little coding/programming background (read: absolutely none), I am always able to accomplish what is needed without feeling over my head or needing help.

In general, the software works really well. I get weird errors for time to time. Tech Therapy does a great job helping when things go awry

Support Rating
I feel that the level of support I get from Shoutlet is far beyond the level of support I've received from other companies in a variety of services. It would be nice to have a regular update from Tech Therapy that lists out any potential bugs they're working to fix for the various browsers they support. Sometimes I wonder if I'm experiencing an issue simply because I use Firefox vs. Chrome.

The main reason that we selected Shoutlet over other competitors was the ease of use, content tagging and ability to work seamlessly across a variety of functions. It was in a sense the entire package in once place. Social content management, social listening, social analytics and more. It's been the best bang for our buck and compared to all the above mentioned products it really just offered the whole picture for one price. We still use additional analytics to measure social results as well but Shoutlet is the easiest approach to adapt your social strategy into one solid format

Return on Investment
  • Allows our small staff to provide our clients with world-class service and data.
  • Exponentially improved fan base expansion for our clients.
  • Rapid response for customer service issues for clients - allowing us to help our clients prevent their social media presence from becoming the Complaint Department, rather a true community of fans and supporters of a brand.
