Overall I really like using Instagram because it's more based around a picture then just some words like Twitter. Like they say a picture is worth a thousand words and Twitter won't let me put a thousand words in a post so Instagram is much more fun and useful.
The fact that I can do it all on my phone.
It's not easy to search for past conversations with people in the DM's.

Instagram is both good and bad at the same time. It does provide a channel to deploy information and advertisement, but it does no offer clear rules to do it. The new argued "inclusive" guidelines of their working algorithm foster or not the distribution of your publications, then, many of your followers will or won't see what you have to show.
Does have a lot of active users worldwide. It allows integrating with platforms like Facebook. The app is fairly simple to use
Does not have defined game rules The algorithm shows your content or hides you despite your follower's amount but their interest. The customer service is a shame, it is almost no existent.

Our experience with the platform is good, but it could be fairly better if they address several aspects of the software.
This software is a necessity of any marketing company and many other business lines. Notwithstanding, it is not a good software. What I can assure is, this platform does allows people from around the world to connect.
Managing different accounts is not optimized at all. In fact, for some accounts, it does have a glitch that makes the app show different user interface versions for each account even when they are being managed from the same device. That algorithm the software employs does not allow the people to reach their max potential, it is actually pretty biased according to Instagram needs.

Student engagement is a huge problem especially since Covid. Using Instagram as a way to connect with students and with fellow educators allows me to engage my students with the social media that they are already proficient at navigating. Highly engaging for reluctant students!
As an educator, I love that I can easily connect with other like-minded teachers on a safe social media platform. Instagram has proven highly impactful in regards to building a strong educator community where we can bounce ideas off of each other, share resources, and offer encouraging words to one another. Being able to provide links to other content is a bonus!
I honestly haven’t found a con with Instagram. It’s easy to use and super impactful with my students and fellow educators.

I was very happy but now it's very very difficult to make it worth it ...
I really was happy 2-3 years ago before instagram became a platform with an algorithm which just makes your experience a nightmare... I have 60K followers and now only 1% of them see my posts. It's very frustrating ... I try to pay to promote my post and it's even worst ...
Algorithm sucks a lot, it gives you low visibility for users who are already following you ..
