Buffer Reviews & Product Details

Scheduling is dead simple, and the queue view makes a week of content legible at a glance. Thread support exists, which many schedulers still fumble. The GraphQL API is workable enough that my AI assistant can create and verify scheduled posts programmatically — a daily campaign basically runs itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The free plan's reservation limits bite quickly on a daily campaign — you end up refilling the queue in small batches. Attaching media to threaded posts has quirks: images placed on the parent post can be dropped when a thread is attached, so you learn to structure posts around it. Analytics on lower tiers is thin.

Its a 1 stop organizational tool, you can create save and edit ideas all on the same dashboard. You can link all social media accounts and only choose to pay for what channel you are using. I love that you can use the built in integrations to clip and source material from the web or media you are currently watching. The speed and adaptability are on point, no lag or crashing issues. Our support team was helpful and fast to answer any questions regarding linking our media apps. The AI feature can be used to save data to your dashboard for later editing.

At first it was a challenge to get our social media accounts linked to the app but with the help from the support team that was cleared up very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buffer allows us to manage multiple social channels all in one place. By being able to schedule content across channels, manage engagement in one place, and view our social data more efficiently, we can maintain and grow our social presence in one platform.

Meta doesn't allow Buffer to pull data on some of our channels. This creates some inefficiencies around how we can use the analytics tab. I'd rather be able to check all our analytics in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Buffer is intuitive. I appreciate how easy it is to connect the API, as well as the queue function for content approval. I also like how I can have all accounts separated, even if they are from the same social network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the timeline for scheduling posts confusing, especially when scheduling daily posts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its easiness to connect with the most of the social media channels including Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Instagram, BSky. Also the free plan provides access to connect 3 channels. The best part is its simple dahsboard we dont need to contact the support team for onboarding or no need to watch the videos for integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It did not provide some features like mentioning the page or person on our social media posts, we need to manually go to social media channel for this purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uncomplicated, fast and enough allowance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be honest, nothing yet. That's why I exclusively came here to leave a review that states how happy I am with the service. Honestly, I am even thinking about getting their plan once I can afford it because it really is a service that actually makes a big difference in my work flow. It gives me more time for myself and other things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a smooth UX compared to other scheduling tools I've used in the past. That's my first and most important checklist item. The integration experience with primary social media channels was also easy to navigate. Because of Buffer, our team finds it easy to execute our social media strategies for multiple brands and channels. It's a great time-saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike it when it fails to post, and unless one of our social media managers downloads the Buffer mobile app, they don't get notified at all. As for the price, it's pretty reasonable given the smooth UX, but it could be cheaper, especially for us who add multiple channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Buffer for scheduling all my social media posts across multiple platforms, which saves me a lot of time. It's extremely helpful because I can manage all my social media platforms in one place. With Buffer, it's much easier to post content across different platforms and engage with followers quickly from a single location. This feature is particularly beneficial for my digital marketing agency, where I handle multiple clients' social media platforms, each having 4-5 platforms. Buffer lets me focus more on creating creative content rather than getting bogged down with social media management. The initial setup was very easy, and I'm very satisfied with the current version of Buffer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI of the application can be improved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Buffer because it’s simple and doesn’t try to do too much. The interface feels clean, scheduling posts is fast, and the analytics are straightforward to understand. It’s a great option if you want something lightweight and stress-free. The only downside is that it can feel a bit limited if you need more advanced features, but for everyday use it’s still a solid tool. 👍 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I don’t like about Buffer is that it can feel a bit limited compared to other tools. Some more advanced features—like deeper analytics, competitor tracking, or additional automation—are either missing or only available on higher-tier plans. It’s great if you want something simple and straightforward, but as your needs grow, you may end up outgrowing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface for scheduled posts in vastly better than LinkedIn's Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
