Which social media management tool is best in your Opinion?

I have IFTT but im wondering which is the best in your opinion? Sometimes IFTT causes issues.

  1. Buffer
  2. Hootsuite
  3. SocialBro
  4. IFTT

What issues so you have with IFTT?

Why did you list the other ones? Have you tried them before? If so, what do you like or not like about them?

Best for what? Surely the choice of tool depends - to some extent, at least - on what you want to do with it.

Tried IFTTT and sometimes it doesnt post to twitter etc
but few issues in a year.

Im searching for the most complete autopost, i mean if i post on tumbrl id like also the stuff to be autoposted in instagram, but theres no that choice.

Buffer have some great features like best schedule for your posts, easy to share on multiple social media accounts with different sharing panels and many more. Also its easy to use and not required much knowledge as a beginner.

We use RSS to Zapier to Buffer to Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn/etc

Buffer is set up with custom times, and we send everything through twice: once so it gets pushed to social ASAP, and once so it goes in the publishing queue for a second tweet.

The few times when Zapier has failed, I’ve received an alert right away. It’s happened a handful of times in 3+ years.

Im not familiar with these apps, but I am learning this post.

Does Buffer include posting on Instagram? (i mean if the program can post on instagram whats been posted on tumbrl as es)

I’ve always used Hootsuite and found it to be pretty good, no problems so far.

Hey John! Instagram doesn’t allow access to third party apps for auto posting. But Buffer is a great social media tool, it is very simple and easy to use even for a beginner. Buffer is continuing to do research and explore how best to provide great solutions for their customers. We hope that Buffer will integrate Instagram soon.

They just announced Instagram integration! As @SamPerry mentions, Instagram doesn’t allow other apps to post automatically, so Buffer gets around that by setting up everything in advance, then sending you a push notification at the scheduled time so you can post. Not great if you want to post for a super different time zone, but if you’ll be awake during your posting times, it sounds like a great option. I’m testing it out today on my personal account.
