Zoho Social - Perfect Automation I needed
Reviewed on 10/05/2022
Pros
I mostly used Zoho Social to transfer leads from Facebook and Linkedin directly to Zoho CRM, and believe me it eliminated so much of manual work like downloading the leads, arranging them in the format, assigning owner, uploading on Zoho CRM. Also it helped me in the business as well because leads were transferred to Zoho CRM in realtime and our team contacted them at the earliest without wasting much time.
Cons
Everything is good but I thing there should be separate subscription only to transfer leads.

Customer support SUCKS

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.

Reviewed on 30/04/2022
Pros
Zoho Social has been a excellent tool for managing my client's social media accounts. It's my first time using such a service, so I first demoed Buffer then moved on to Zoho and found it to be a comfortable fit. The calendar view offers a convenient view of my upcoming posts and the "post" function is versatile in how it lets me tailor the content to each outlet. Really looking forward to exploring features I haven't tried out yet.
Cons
Tagging Instagram pages for my posts has been tricky. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't
