Before trying SocialBee I had tried: Hootsuite, Loomly, Sprout Social, Air Table, Buffer, Zoho, and more.

From the moment I tried the platform, I was put at ease. It really worked! The onboarding process was clear and easy.

SocialBee helps me save time while posting all being really cost-effective.

If I were to describe SocialBee to a colleague, I’d say just this: “Better at social media scheduling than Hootsuite.”

I didn’t get on with Hootsuite too well and didn’t have the funds for the more expensive but sometimes feature-poor alternatives.

SocialBee has been reliable and I haven’t needed to look elsewhere since I found them.
