MeetEdgar works for a wide-range of businesses and post types. If you’re looking for an all in one platform where you can also design posts, this app doesn’t do this.
We're using MeetEdgar in the marketing department to schedule our Facebook and LinkedIn posts for the clients. The tool is definitely worth the investment, it saves a lot of time when it comes to social media posting & scheduling. It's easy to use, and my favorite part about it is that you can have multiple post variations for the same piece of content that the tool cycles on its own. That means you can never have a gap in your posts!
Pros
The library is done very well. It posts content on the last-in-first-out basis and it lets you add multiple variations of posts for the same piece of content.
It's easy to manage multiple accounts at once.
It's very user-friendly and it's easy to get a hang of it.
Cons
The reporting is very limited. There's no dashboards or easy way to track how your posts are performing.
Honestly, that's the only recommendation I have—everything else works great!
Likelihood to Recommend
It's a great tool if you want to save time invested into social media posting and scheduling. It will ensure you have no gaps in posting and it cycles the content that's added to the library. If you need in-depth analytics and tracking, you might need to look further, as those options are very limited in MeetEdgar.
The marketing strategy of our shop leans heavily on Facebook for both organic and paid marketing. But as you might be aware, the organic reach for Facebook now is around 5% or less of your total fans, which means our best content might not have been seen by some (if not most) of our fans. To solve this, we used to manually re-post popular posts via Buffer, but it is a somewhat time-consuming task and not the most ideal solution.
Then came Edgar, a service that specializes in evergreen content sharing. Edgar even enables us to further categorize our evergreen content and set up a schedule for distribution according to the nature of the content. As far as we could tell, there aren't that many services on the market quite like it.
Pros
Keep a library of your favourite/most popular content. Assign them categories and give them different time slots throughout the week. For example, we didn't want to bombard our fans with sales and promotions, so we keep that to a minimum while having the majority of our recurring posts to be helpful and non-sales-y content.
You also have the ability to assign time slots for random content. If you have contents that you wish to exclude from this all-random slot, it can be adjusted on a category level.
RSS feed integration. Automatically review and add content from your RSS feed onto your Edgar queue.
Cons
Inability to use multiple photos for a single Facebook post.
Photo resolution will be shrink down to mobile friendly resolutions. This might be enough for most users/organizations, though.

<ul><li>Edgar works best if you already have enough (or plan on keep adding more) evergreen content to avoid too much repetition. This will of course be dependent on the frequency of your schedule as well as how refined your categories are.</li><li>Edgar works for Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn currently, and it doesn't seem like they will be adding more networks in the near future.</li></ul>
