I manage multiple clients, I will never use another platform! Zoho for life.
Reviewed on 06/03/2024
Pros
I started using zoho social through a company I worked for a few years ago -- when I branched off on my own and found myself taking on more and more marketing clients, I tried so many different social media management apps. I literally tried no less than 8, Zoho was so awesome when I used it before that I assumed it was the most expensive option and never explored it -- turns out it is hands down the best value and price if you are managing more than 3 or 4 brands! Silly me, I assumed because it was the best it was gonna be out of my price range! Using it now and never looking back, I manage 6 brands by myself right now and they make it so easy.
Cons
Only have two issues really, 1. that I cannot seem to tag individuals in a post so when, for example, I am wishing an employee a happy birthday for a client -- I cannot tag that employee through zoho (only businesses).
2. I have a client who is a radio station -- they have 6 Facebook pages for all of their different radio hosts but I can only add one channel per brand (1 FB, 1 Insta, etc) which means I have to count each of their channels as a new brand. That slows me down a bit but in the grand scheme of things, it is not the end of the world.

Global and Functional Social Tool
Reviewed on 23/07/2024
Pros
It has a lot of capability and functionalities upon initial setup.
It is easy to separate brands, and manage lead capture for each salesperson.
All integrations into existing social medias are in Zoho Social at a glance, features are on the same level as of other social tool providers.
Interface and workflow management are a piece of cake.
Easy to navigate through many layers of data and communication points.
Cons
It is similar to Zoho tools in existing integrations and usual necessity to tweak things internally and upkeep the system.
Due to our internal customization of CRM, it was harder to integrate Zoho Social seamlessly.
It is hard to manage several languages under one roof, only limited amount of brands can be created.
Automation and default pages are barely customizable.

Efficient and User-Friendly Social Media Management Tool
Reviewed on 19/08/2024
Pros
The scheduling and publishing tools are particularly robust, allowing for seamless content planning and execution. The analytics and reporting features provide valuable insights, making it easier to track performance and adjust strategies accordingly.
Cons
The app sometimes feels sluggish, especially when managing multiple accounts or accessing detailed reports. However, these are minor issues that don't overshadow the overall effectiveness of the tool.

Customer support SUCKS
Reviewed on 01/04/2021
Disappointing. No — infuriating.
Disappointing. No — infuriating.
Pros
Pretty easy to use UI. Monitoring dashboard. Nice looking reports.
Cons
1. Insights data captured in reports is pretty lacking, especially for posts that are boosted (engagement not captured!! what?!?) so there's inconsistency with actual metrics.
2. Cannot tag other pages/users in Facebook posts
3. Stopped using this to schedule Facebook posts because preview does not reflect how the respective platform posts will look – eg how pix will tile / crop in a post (instead, images are just thumbnailed in a row)
4. Second reason was scheduled posts sometimes Did Not Publish (!!!). Especially multi-image posts.
5. ABSOLUTELY TOP PEEVE: Trying to get customer support is like playing cat and mouse with Zoho. Open a ticket. Wait. Email again. Wait. Email again. Maybe within 48-36 hours, get a reply like "we can't replicate the problem on our end". Gee thanks.
I really expect more as a paying subscriber. I'm not a trial user or a noob to social media tools, so I do know what's available and how other companies provide 500% more support within 12 hours, if not live chat.

It's easy to use and it keeps all my social media organized and updated. I have been using Zoho Social for about two years now and I absolutely love it! It has made managing my social media accounts so much easier and more efficient. Overall, my experience with Zoho Social has been great!
Pros
I love this tool. There are many similar tools out there, but this is the best one I have come across. I use it for managing all my social media posts, especially scheduling. It has a great calendar management tool, as well as an easy-to-use interface. The ability to schedule all my posts at once, on all platforms is a huge time saver. I also love that I can review reports for each platform and see which posts are performing well.
Cons
Tagging people on WhatsApp Business is a pain because there is no integration for it. This is a big issue for me since WhatsApp is the main form of communication where I live.
Reasons for Switching to Zoho Social
Zoho Social offers a number of features that are very useful for managing social media accounts, such as the ability to schedule posts, track analytics, and more. I also appreciate that the interface is very user-friendly and easy to navigate.

I really like it. It is user-friendly and has a lot of nice features. I have done the free trial and have added on my top 5 clients to use. I am nervous what the cost is going to be once the free trial is over. That will be the deciding factor if I continue with it.
Pros
I like that I can automate my posts for my clients and I don't have to check on them daily. I also like the SmartQ feature that tells you the best time to post for each brand.
Cons
Having to pay for each additional brand and/or each additional client to have access. Also, I have two clients that have products to tag on their posts and there is no option for that. So this account is pretty much useless for those clients and they are two of my biggest ones. In addition, you can't schedule or post Stories to FB & IG. That isn't as big of deal but would be really nice if that was a feature.

Yes the best. I've been telling all my marketing pals. This is the best platform for such a steal in monthly premium.
Pros
Seriously this platform has every feature you could want. I've used hootsuite, bubble, and sprout social. Compared to this platform all of those suck. With zoho you get monitoring, reporting, connections, team, publishing, drafts, you name it. All for a stinking low price compared to other platforms that want to charge you an arm and a leg for mediocre functionality and no team collaboration. Super happy with this platform.
Cons
Nothing so far. Haven't found anything.

Overall, I am pleasantly surprised at how much of my needs are met by Zoho Social.

Pros
Ease of use, quick set up, easy to add team members, love the analytics, being able to post to all of the major networks, and simple user interface (everything makes sense in how it works)
Cons
Although it has Social Inbox for Twitter and Facebook, I would like to have it for other networks like Google My Business, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Doesn't have access to engage or post to Pinterest. A nice have that's not available is integration with WordPress self-hosted service.

The support was disappointing for the price. We did like having a single public URL for all clients to use for approvals/review.
Pros
We appreciated that there was ae reporting built in and that there was an option to quickly pause all content.
Cons
Customer support was awful. They were slow to respond, and once they did, the answer was usually "Sorry, that is not available" or "that is not something that can be done." There were no workarounds, no forwarding to development teams for future updates, and only uncaring, unhelpful responses.

It has been very easy and simple to use. Even when I did have an issue, customer support got back to me really quick with my answer.
Pros
I primarily used the soho social feature and I found it extremely helpful that I was able to connect all my social channels to it. I could then plan and schedule all my social media posts across all my channels for as far out as I wanted to. This helped me a lot and I knew I didn't have to worry about it on a daily basis.
Cons
A few times I wanted to post multiple images to my instagram channel and I was not able to do this. But that was minor. There were so many features that I have not even been able to use yet so I cannot say that there was anything that I liked least.

A Host of Features at a Much Cheaper Price
Reviewed on 05/06/2018
Pros
I stumbled upon Zoho Social accidentally when I was looking for a social media software for my company. We are a small company and even smaller social media and marketing team (only 2 strong), so we didn't really a huge budget to devote. Our requirement of features centred mainly on being able to schedule our posts in advance, schedule the same post multiple times, monitor our performance across different channels and create a content and publishing calendar.
We had narrowed down to Hootsuite (which we found to be powerful, yet too expensive) and buffer (which was cheap but didn't meet all our feature requirements). I was very pleased when I came across Zoho Social, which offered us the best of both worlds. A host of great features at a much cheaper price point than Hootsuite. It meets most of our feature requirements and is a lot pleasant to look at and easier to use than Hootsuite (which we found to be a little clunky at times). Everything is really accessible, the most relevant metrics are on the home page itself, the reports give a good overview of the KPIs, and it's all so easy to use. One feature I loved is that you can track how many times a user has interacted with your brand on different channels, and then share the same information with your other team members (through the Collaborate tab). All in all, a power-packed software with all the best social media management features built in.
I discovered Zoho Social a day before when we were about to make the final call, and I am really glad we did!
Cons
My biggest problem with Zoho Social has been the inability to customise our set of features. The Standard plan offers most of the features, however, the Publishing Calendar is only there in the next upgrade, the Professional plan. I don't really need the other set of features like additional brands and team members, and thus don't see sense in upgrading just for one feature. When I got in touch with their customer support team, they told me that they do not allow any customisation and the features for each plan are set in stone. This was really disappointing, and Zoho Social might have been the perfect social media management software for me if not for this.

Review of ZOHO Social
Reviewed on 06/04/2023
It was a good experience.
It was a good experience.
Pros
I have been using Zoho Social for a few weeks now and I am thoroughly impressed with the platform. As a small business owner, managing multiple social media accounts can be a challenge, but Zoho Social has made the process much easier.One of the things I like most about Zoho Social is the user-friendly interface. It's easy to navigate and I was able to start using it right away without any issues. I also appreciate the customizable dashboards, which allow me to see the metrics and data that are most important to my business.The post scheduling feature has also been a game-changer for me. I can now schedule posts in advance and ensure that my content is published at the optimal time for maximum engagement. This has saved me a lot of time and made my social media presence more consistent.The automation features, such as the ability to automatically publish posts from RSS feeds and set up automated responses to customer inquiries, have also been very helpful. It's great to have these tasks taken care of automatically, so I can focus on other aspects of my business.Zoho Social's monitoring tools are also impressive, as they allow me to track brand mentions, engage with customers, and monitor competitor activity. The detailed analytics and reporting features have also provided me with valuable insights into social media performance.
Cons
One potential downside of Zoho Social is the pricing. While the platform offers many features that can be helpful for businesses of all sizes, the higher-tier plans can be quite expensive. This may not be feasible for small businesses with limited budgets, so it's important to carefully consider the pricing options before committing to the platform.Lastly, while Zoho Social does offer support options like email and phone support, I've found that the response times can be slow at times, and it can be difficult to get issues resolved in a timely manner.

For a first-time user of Zoho Social, I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and capabilities of the product. The ability to schedule posts is great, and the analytics are incredibly easy to read and access—and they provide great insight into how content is performing. The inbuilt tracking of links has also been a great feature for me to be able to see which content is being shared.
Overall, I've been impressed with the capabilities of this product and would definitely recommend it for businesses that are looking to expand their social media presence in an organized and efficient way.
Pros
I've tried just about every social media management software under the sun—and I even wrote articles on best practices in social media marketing. So when I tell you that Zoho Social is the best out there, I'm saying it with the utmost seriousness.
Zoho Social's user-friendly UI and intuitive navigation make it easy to get up and running right away. It also supports more channels than any other app in its price range and has many advanced features like analytics, calendar post scheduling, content re-posting, and more. If you're looking for a social media management tool that won't break the bank but will deliver world-class results, this is it!
Cons
If only there were a way to schedule multiple posts for one social media channel at once without saving and adding again and without using the bulk upload CSV method. I hate that I have to unselect all the other channels while doing this. Please see MeetEdgar's upload feature. That's one thing that I wish you had.

Grow your Brand with Zoho Social
Reviewed on 06/06/2023
Pros
Zoho Social is user friendly, the features are written in a clear language for all users to understand. Pocket friendly, its averagely priced for small to large businesses to afford. The setup is very easy, it took us less time for all our social platforms. Pre- scheduling posts to post later is a brilliant feature, helps me stay organized. The notifications are awesome each time I get a social media interaction, this helps me to get back to clients om time who may have queries. Zoho Social has made my work easier as I post to multiple social media channels all at once. Drag and drop is a life saver, I literally drag and drop photos ok the site I want to post, how cool is that!. Upcoming posts on the calendar is really helpful to keep me on the toes of upcominng events.
Cons
I love all the features I have used so far. I do not have a challenge I have experienced with Zoho Social, it has greatly improved our brand awareness and we are happy

One stop tools for all my social media account
Reviewed on 24/08/2021
Pros
I enjoy it a lot since I can work with many customers at once. Having everything at my fingertips for each one, organizing material in a simple method helps me keep everything organized, and, above all, scheduling content across various social media networks profiles that i have.
Cons
The fact that I can't use any of the stories is perhaps what I dislike the most. Working on Instagram stories would be beneficial. I'd want to be able to submit more than six photos for each publication, and occasionally I have as many as nine images for a single article. It would be fantastic to be able to submit publications with many photos automatically.

When it comes to a marketing manager who can help with organizing and scheduling posts on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, I think Zoho Social is by far the most cost-effective option. It also offers a function that allows you to share a single post across many platforms with a single click.
