I don't know how my marketer's life looked like before checking Coschedule out. My social media & content planning is a serene pleasure right now. If you are seeking the complex machine for your content, look no further. It definitely lived up to my expectations. It works smoothly and without a single flaw - always published what I planned.
Maybe pricing could be improved a notch - I think it may be an obstacle for many small businesses. However, this money is spent well.

Overall experience has been beneficial for my blog especially as the Headlines Analyzer is a free option and most useful to title my posts right.
The best feature in this is the Write Better Headlines feature which helps analyze your post's headline and slot it for better keyword and SEO placement. Also good for scheduling posts for social media promotion.
Pricing package is a little pricey. The number of features through the paid package are more hence the overall learning curve is also considerably longer.

Extremely easy to use and a decent value for the money. For advanced reporting and a platform that is cohesive with all social media platforms, go bigger.
I like that it has an extremely simple platform, easy to navigate and customer service is timely. For the money, it is a good base platform that saves time.
This program is not cohesive with several needed platforms, and I have continuous issues authenticating LinkedIn. They say that it's the LinkedIn platform, I don't know. Used to get reports on activity, but they would always show no activity so they just stop sending the reports.

ease of management of multiple marketing products, campaigns and deadlines
I like CoSchedule's marketing calendar and social media distribution a lot. It makes perfect sense for someone running a WordPress site which can be integrated. The beauty of it is when you publish, you can also distribute to social platforms, which is cool.
It only works with WordPress. Well, you can use the software without the integration, but you lose the elegance of the setup. So the Joomla guy who was going to build an interface? Not so successful. And it only works with WordPress.org. WordPress.com sites are a no-go. So it has to fit to work. I also found it to be cumbersome for loading social posts outside the realm of article distribution.

The CoSchedule team has been consistently kind and easy to reach. They're great.
CoSchedule provides a seamless dashboard--and it's integrated with WordPress. I used it mainly for social media scheduling, but the integration is super convenient.
The price hike over the years. It is worth it if you use ALL of the features or platforms, but if you just need it for a few things or only log in every week, not so much. I miss it something fierce when I do product launches as you can do your whole marketing plan in there.

Not as many benefits as I had hoped, but it is helpful to have my blog posts scheduled out for the year all at once on all platforms.
I like that I can post ideas and have my list for the month right in front of me, but truthfully, I have found I can do the exact same thing in Trello. I love the way I can set up templates to strategically post my blog posts out again on social media for the entire year on all my social platforms. It is super helpful to see everything that is scheduled to go out for the entire month all at once.
I feel like there is so much more to this software that I am just not utilizing at this time as it is just me using it and not a team. I thought the social scheduling would be sup helpful for me, but again, for my purposes, there are other tools that will work for me that are simpler and less costly. The templates are great but the setup could be easier and quicker, in my opinion.

Customer support doesn't guide you through a process when you have a problem they just point to a link so you can read and figure it out for yourself. I will not be renewing next year.
I like the part where you can publish to all your social media accounts at one time.
If I knew from the start that your Instagram pages need to be converted to a business page I wouldn't have bought the product. I have had trouble ever since with Instagram to convert and it just doesn't work.
Thanks for taking the time to leave this feedback, Rachel. I'm very sorry to see CoSchedule hasn't fully met your expectations. Please feel free to reach out to support@coschedule.com with any further comments or troubles. We'd love to help in any way we can. Thank you,

Overall satisfied. Customer support is quick and efficient, I just wish the pricing was better for small businesses.
I love the Wordpress integration. Probably the most useful feature of the software. Being able to create campaigns directly in a WP post is fantastic.
Way too expensive. We had to downgrade our plan and lost some of the features, but we're not missing them too much. The app is horrendous.

Only after switching to another tool like that I appreciated overall experience with CoSchedule. Functionalities are not everything when UX is bad. CoSchedule had it all.
Very user friendly and helpful when managing every day marketing activities. Once I switched to another similar tool (company's decision, not mine), I miss CoSchedule a lot. Everything in one place.
Nothing like that actually, I can't come up with any cons.

Coschedule will automatically post things for the best time of day depending on the platform and day. It's easy and clean to see your whole month planned out. It's also easy for multiple people to contribute.
If I delete a post on the platform, coschedule still says that it is there. There's also a lot of popup chat boxes and the screen can get cluttered.

I'm a heavy user of Coschedule. Actually, they even invited me to their podcast as they saw that we really use a lot the tool. I use it mainly as a Twitter and LinkedIn post planner as there's no option to schedule posts inside these tools. We also use it as an editor calendar to mark all new blog posts and email campaigns. The big pro is their easy drag&drop interface. I like the fact that you can change the time of publishing the post in a second (it's important when there's for example some problem with the application and we don't want to post anything then).
I had some problems with the fact, that the tool unconnected itself with LinkedIn so the post was not published on time (and I was on holidays so didn't have the possibility to control it). They should also work on their system of planning the hours of scheduled posts - we also had some problems with them.

Great time-saver and good productivity tool for online entrepreneurs!
I loved the intuitiveness ans fluidity of the software, especially the marketing calendar! It operates like a typical software calendar, but everything is visual and graphically represented. When I need to manage the whole email marketing and marketing campaigns together with social analytics and team reporting, this software can deliver them all in one place! Very time-efficient and powerful! Not...
Well, it does contain a lot of features. Hence, the learning curve may take longer; it takes a while for me to familiarise with the features and the exact steps to get a feel of the workflows. Nevertheless, it is worthwhile taking sometime off to learn as one starts using it. Cost is always an issue for good software. Unless you are working in a team, you may not need powerful functions like having snapshots of every project in one place, checking on project timelines and upcoming deadlines, and following up with specific teammates.

As the head of a small marketing team, my time is stretched incredibly thin. CoSchedule provides the ability to gain more time in my week by having routine content planned will in advance so I can more on ideas quicker.
The lifesaving ability of this software is in its scheduling and templating. I save so much time by having templates for my weekly content that still allow me to dynamically input content so the posts stay unique. I can have all of my routine content pre-scheduled for the week, which allows me to focus on content as it happens and run with ideas faster.
Some features are not very intuitive, and it is very difficult to find information on the specifics of them before you devote time to them.

Afforable and offers a lot of features, also allows you to have multiple users and multiple accounts.
Important features for monitoring are missing as are the in depth reporting needed to measure success.

I am a busy marketer and CoSchedule has been such a time saver for me! What I really enjoy in using it is the fact that you can use it as a detailed content plan and keep all of your communication (including blog posts, email campaigns, and social media updates) in one place.
I wish it would be possible to filter how the updates are displayed in the calendar, i.e. by an assignee or a project. It would be also great to put it the status of each task.

We were looking for a social media scheduling/management app -- and for the most part CoSchedule was just that. But we ended up needing some additional features that were not offered. We used CoScheulde for a few months before switching to another service. CoSchedule has all the basics for scheduling/publishing/monitoring your socials if that is what you are looking for!
I liked the ease of use/design experience of CoSchedule. It was very easy to publish, schedule and view my content -- the interface is pretty self explanatory and easy to figure out how to use.
I did not like that I could not see a preview of my posts as it would look on my feed (mainly for Instagram posts). Would love to see who my posts look next to each other after I scheduled out a week's worth of content. I also felt like the analytics were lacking, I've seen more in-depth stats with other social media management tools.
Thank you for leaving this review, Anabelle. We appreciate hearing your feedback because it helps us make CoSchedule better for everyone. If you decide to try CoSchedule again in the future, we'd love to answer any questions or hear suggestions at support@coschedule.com. We'd be happy to help!

Combining several marketing initiatives into one convenient, fairly priced program.
Quick program. I've never had issues with it loading.
The appearance of it seems a little outdated and bulky.

I used CoSchedule in my previous company and then brought it to my current one. It's a nice tool that gives you a quick overview of your content calendar. You can add predefined tasks to the calendar, which automates the editorial process somewhat. It's also very useful for having an overview of how many scheduled social media posts you have for specific articles. I've only had good experience with the customer support team_always very quick to respond and they seem to action feedback pretty quickly.
- easy-to-use - nice calendar feature - easy social media scheduling - great drag and drop functionality
- lacks integration with Hootsuite (integrates with Buffer) - the commenting feature isn't very good (it would be good to be able to @mention people, and collaborate more within the article planning panel)

I've been looking for a content marketing calendar for quite a while and thought CoSchedule was the answer to my problems. It's set up perfectly for a content marketer like myself and has an incredible amount of integrations to seamlessly work among your marketing stack. Being able to automatically set up social posts to schedule once a blog goes live and setting up tasks and due dates is a great feature.
There isn't an "easy" way to use this software. While it's incredibly useful and robust, it's almost too overwhelming and difficult for some folks to adopt.

Overall this software plays an essential part of the day to day workflow and running of any business.
The feature I believe is most impactful is the scheduling of posts. Easy to use and saves time, you can plan and schedule promotional post for your business weeks even months ahead of time.
Pricing was a major factor, as a small business owner I found that pricing was an obstacle, a bit pricey.

Saved time and lots of energy as I did not have to ask my team constantly what they were doing, I could directly see it in the chat threat on the calendar.
The calendar, it's very helpful in managing all the task. And not just your task but also your team's tasks. It gives a subtle constant reminder of the timeline and the goal which is set so it helps in keeping track of things.
It becomes a bit annoying sometimes because if the goal is not achieved or a task on the timeline is missed, it becomes all chaotic.

Great! Our rep is a great customer service rep.
I love the different views including calendar views, labeling, and keywords you can use to find different projects easily. It makes project management and working with others on a team so simple, as well as scheduling out blog posts and social media posts.
There are a few features I'd like them to implement, but it is easy to talk to customer support and get things going in the pipeline.

The overall experiences in the use of this software have been worthwhile. The free trial is an excellent way of reviewing and testing everything this application has to offer without the need of giving credit information. Its ease of use for those challenged with organization and productivity will see the value in this program.
The use of this software with its calendar organizational tools is amazing. You will never have to worry about content being forgotten or behind schedule. Your team will thank you for the work organizer tools to assist with the management of workflow performance. When other projects have restricted your ability to dedicate full attention, you have resources to provide remarkably dependable support.
If the consistency of the content is a high priority I suggest upgrading to an elevated package.

The Marketing Calendar view is awesome and it helps me oversee all the campaigns in one dashboard to make sure everything is on track. The interface is very simple to use and can help get things done pretty fast.
The pricing for the platform could be better looking at what some of the competitors offer.

Social marketing tools and marketing calendar to schedule and manage campaigns. The claendar festure is a great simple look at how to publish and republish your content. Recycled content is so helpful. The template creation solution has been widely taken advantage of here as well.
The software is not intuitive, is more costly than some of it alternatives, and we experienced a few glitches during testing.
