Pros

“Instagram allows a user to be completely free in how they choose to use the app, such as username changes, editing existing posts and reels, and uploading content.”

“Features such as Reels, Stories, product tagging, and direct messaging make it easier to reach new customers and build relationships with existing ones.”

FOunder CEO

“I also appreciated the Explore page for surfacing content genuinely relevant to my interests, and the editing tools that made photos and videos look polished right in the app.”

Pros

“I usually set up post for an entire month and then I can re see them when they pop up. ”
JH

Jennifer H.

CA Office Manager

“There aren't many social scheduling platforms on the market that allow you to schedule stories either and I appreciate that Sked enables this.”

Creative Director

“They've got some new AI features that really save time too.”

Cons

“One of the biggest drawbacks of Instagram is that the algorithm can make it difficult for content to reach followers consistently, especially for business accounts.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Andrea L.

Innovation Manager

“The pressure to curate a certain image, along with intrusive ads and the addictive, hard-to-put-down scrolling design, were also things I didn't love.”
LL

Léo L.

Content Creator

“I dislike the algorithms that tend to overdue advertisements from gathering users personal information which result in a bombardment of ad repetition.”
YE

Yonas E.

President

Cons

“It has glitched on me a couple of times in terms of uploading, which requires the manual labour of then logging in and manually posting at times that are not always convenient.”
PS

Paige S.

Creative Director

“This is outrageous and feels like a scam. Although customer service responds quickly, their replies are unhelpful and blame the customer rather than addressing the actual problems.”
MP

Maja P.

CEO

“The only additional feature I want is tagging products, but you aren’t able to just add on that service, you have to pay hundreds more per month to upgrade and get all these other features that i’m not even interested in.”
