Overall I use twitter to help push my brand and its another great social media source!
I love how it integrates with instagram so whatever i post on instagram is automatically uploaded to twitter
I wish twitter also had more in depth insights so i can know specifically who is viewing my content and from what state

Many people use the twitter platform, so it’s a great way to reach more customers
Limited characters, of course, and it just seems like Instagram is better

I am able to sync my instagram with twitter for it to post the same content
I find twitter personally boring but it is necessary to have for business so you are discovered on all platforms

I love Twitter to be honest besides Instagram, Twitter is my go to social media app
The design an news feed, I like how you can put a whole cover photo about your profile that’s really dope.
I don’t like the fact you can’t message everybody , they have to be following you on order to send a message

The software makes it a bit easier to find people. It doesn't have a lot of ads like Instagram
When a user accidentally refreshes, it goes all the way to top

Twitter has allowed us to build a community that enjoys our content.
Twitter allows for the easy distribution of content to a vast population of people. It is fast, easy to use, and always reliable. It is a great place to build a community.
No issues whatsoever. We prefer Twitter over Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The impressions we see are staggering.

You choose who to follow and from then you see just relevant tweets. It's way more easy to stay focused in comparison with super distractive Facebook.
Not so much usable in business - if you need to sell some product Instagram shopping and Facebook do better job.

Overall i am very satisfied. Twitter is the most important social media tool to keep you informed and its place is more different when compared with Instagram or Facebook.
The most i like about Twitter is that i can reach easily to news, to famous people's tweets and fleets etc. You are informed with everything around the world. All features of Twitter is very nice.
I have no problems with using twitter. Only there are lots of fake accounts in the app and when you send complaints to Twitter, it is not easy to receive feedback.

Great for helping me get my business noticed! Would definitely recommend!
Any social media site is good for business - really helps you promote your product. Love that there are so many people - all walks of life on twitter - from celebrities to grandfathers! You can reach anyone and everyone!
If you forget your password - it's a little hard to reset! Or to add multiple accounts.. Not so easy to switch back and forth like Instagram

Easy to use and it isn't as addictive as FaceBook or Instagram. When you need to shout out or just draw attention to a single issue, this is still my preferred platform.
Twitter audience has stagnated and it isn't as popular outside of USA. The ability to craft media-rich messages is lacking.

In general I love Twitter I have used Twitter for at least seven years personally and we implemented it at work for our for greeting client engagement and in my opinion I think it’s great that helps us to watch our clients opinions and then they also write the product over there so I think it’s really useful
I Totally love that this software helps us to grade social engagement to our client community
Twitter is not as much as used as Instagram or as Facebook but it helps us with our client market that we have over that application

Twitter is a good app, but I wish I could use it more or find more interest in it as I do in other apps.
The pros of Twitter are that it is one the most know apps in the entire world. It doesn't matter where you go, everyone knows what Twitter is, and many people use it. Artist in general are much fans of Twitter.
Twitter in my opinion is much more complicated to use than Facebook or Instagram. Or at least, to me, I don't tend to use Twitter as much as I use other apps.

Overall experience with twitter has been good. It is nice that the app can be connected with Facebook and Instagram as well. Allows for a place to get quick updates in your news feed and also build connections with people from all over the world.
I like that you can provide a quick post about content. Keeping posts short and sweet allows readers to get to the point with news, updates, etc. Like the ability to connect with my Facebook and Instagram as well.
I do not like the hate messages or responses that I have received from time to time. At times can be hard to fit what I want to say in the allotted word count.

Overall, Twitter is a great tool to share important company messages and new content with our customers and followers. While it does not offer as many capabilities for marketers that other social media platforms can, it is still an important part of our marketing toolkit.
Twitter is one of the key social media platforms in the marketplace, making it an essential place for brands to manage their reputation and increase customer engagement.
Twitter is not great for serving ads or targeting specific groups of people, making it primarily a brand management tool rather than one for lead generation. Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn are capable of fulfilling both needs.

Coming from a larger rural area, Twitter just isn't used as much as say Facebook or Instagram. While the interfacing and functionality works just fine for promoting events and services, simply the audience of those around us just isn't there.
Like most social media apps, the Twitter app runs smoothly and is overall user friendly. You'll find plenty of groups and individuals to follow, allowing you to build an audience quickly.
Twitter is one the of least used social media "big" apps for just rural area people. If you are trying to reach more metropolitan areas, the app would be a good starting place, but for smaller communities, this isn't your app.

Twitter is very minimalist. You will find everything in a nutshell. It is a pleasant social network.
I like Twitter very much. I may even be addicted to it. I use lists a lot. I have a list for almost every topic I like—lists I can easily share with others. I'm glad that Twitter is not like Facebook and Instagram.
New changes on Twitter are fast and too much! The simpler it is, the more I like it. Many features are sometimes confusing.

Overall it is a good social networking experience however it isn't my favorite.
Twitter is another way of social networking. You can keep up to date with Twitter users , comment , share, interact with individuals.
It isn't as easy to use if you are a first time user. It isn't as easy to use as Facebook and Instagram and more individuals don't use this app as much as other social support

Twitter is a very good (and almost essential) marketing tool, that gets your message out quickly and efficiently.
My company generally found Twitter to be less effective, and less enjoyable to use, than Facebook, Instagram and Linkedin, but that was at least partly due to the character limit and the type of content we were posting.

I love this app!!! I use it everyday and i really enjoy it. I love reading other people's opinion and as people are so creative, they really make me laugh. I would say is a safe space to post whatever you want but also you are never free of criticisim there. Probably someone is going to agree with you and someone disagree. I totally recommend it!!!!
This app gives you the chance to write or post whatever you want without having second thoughts. I find it fascinating to see what everyone thinks about many things, and be able to get to know them better. It also gives you the opportunity to be updated with world news or tendencies and also to see what people think about them.
I feel like they should add the option of deleting a follower without having to block them. It is more works, and they could do it like Instagram which has really helped whenever i want to make someone to stop following me.

Très facile d'utilisation, c'est également un bon moyen de former une communauté de débat et de répondre en live comme par exemple, lors d'un match de football.
J'aime beaucoup le fait de donner son opinion de manière courte, afin d'aller à l'essentielle des choses . Là , où chez Instagram, les photos sont le plus mis en avant. Ici, ce sont les commentaires qui sont mis en avant (même si il y a la possibilité de publier images et vidéo également)
Malheureusement, c'est application à tendance, à être utilisée par des utilisateurs qui ne sont là que pour déverser leur haine par de la vulgarité ou des insultes mais ils sont très vite signaler auprès du service de Twitter.

Great app for personal and business both for social interaction
Its a great social media app to express your views regarding everything that is going on in this world its not used much for personal stuff like facebook and instagram A lot of public figures and companies use this software to make big announcement its a public platform where you can connect with people
It requires internet connection for using twitter Since its an online platform anybody can write anything which is not true and can harm somebody

I have been using Twitter since 2011 and it is by far the best social network, for the reasons already described. Increasing the character limit in tweets was great for detailing more subjects that are needed, and in fact, the interaction with everyone and everything is what makes the place different from all other social networks.
Twitter is probably the most quiet and best-to-use app. Your space to say what you want (in moderation, of course), interaction with famous people, companies and other things is one of the best things on the internet. It is in fact the easiest place to find news quickly, since sending a tweet takes almost nothing.
Some content sample limitations for some countries, this prevents people who need to see news in the format of videos from wasting time needing to go on other platforms, which can be harmful, depending on the type of news. Fleets can be improved, based on places that are successful, like Instagram.

Another avenue for organic posts to drive traffic to our website. It does have a slightly different demographic than Facebook, a much more refined user base in my opinion. It's definitely great to schedule automatic posts to Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at the same time. It doesn't take more time or effort to post on Twitter, and it does drive some traffic to our website.
We didn't use Twitter for any paid ads, as we just found Facebook and Google Ads much better. Organic traffic wasn't as much as Facebook either. Just seems people use Twitter for different uses, and are less receptive to ads.

In using Twitter, I have found that it is a good place to share your opinions. While other social media sites such as Facebook or even Instagram allow you to do the same, Twitter seems better suited for it, especially for the younger generation. This is actually where the term/concept of the hashtag originated. I really love that you can share your tweets to your Instagram account. You can share/retweet,...
It can be addictive, as with most social media platforms. There is a 140 character maximum, and it's sometimes difficult to summarize your tweet within this limit, or you have to resort to posting additional tweets on the topic/issue.

My overall experience with Twitter is great.
Twitter is the best platform to share my point of view. I can share anything like a quote, joke with the rest of the world. Sometimes I sent dm to the company if I have some problem with their software and I get a reply fast. Like Instagram Twitter organic reach is great. My tweet reaches 1000 impressions daily without ads. I also follow a few people on Twitter like garyvee, Google, Twitter etc.
I don't find any cons on Twitter. It is the best platform to share your thoughts.

I think there are better ways to follow your friends and there are also better apps to follow content creators/influencers
If you follow the right people you can see some really interesting content.
It largely feels unnecessary to me and I'd rather scroll through Twitter.

Instagram has been a very useful platform for more visual campaigns that we do for the company. The user engagement rate has been pretty good and there are lots of features to help corporate promote their posts.
The cons are that there are so many platforms drawing users' attention. Between Face Book and Twitter it has been a arms race for user retention. Twitter does well staying relevant and is still our preferred platform.

Nothing now, I would prefer twitter or tik tok for hundred times.
Everything especially when they deserve the right to decide on your own comment and to obscure your profile for any other user in the platform.
