"MavSocial is fantastic"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

The software is very visual and intuitive, saves me a lot of time when scheduling and allows me to keep together all schedules and campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

G+ is not there, as well as Pinterest, and since they are both quite important networks, I would love to see them added. It would be good to be able to add a logo in the effects when managing an image, although I understand this feature will be released soon. The reports do not go very deep, it would be good to see some detail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"MavSocial - a useful, time saving platform for the one man band or the global enterprise."
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

MavSocial is the only platform that I have come across that allows us to manage all our videos, images etc in one location and then easily publish to multiple social networks. This is a huge time saver for us and means that we are ensuring that we have a consistent brand message all the time.

In addition the ability to publish videos directly to Facebook is so handy, instead of having to upload a video every time we want to publish it, we upload it once to the library and just schedule it from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

I would like to have better twitter publishing ability i.e. Upload a spreadsheet of tweets, post 1 tweet multiple times etc - I have been told that this is something they are working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A real time saver with unique features at the right price point"
4/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

As a marketer who manages multiple accounts for multiple clients and is constantly frustrated by the lack of features of social management tools, I was thrilled to discover MavSocial. The tie-in with stock photo providers makes it really easy to pull imagery into social status updates without the long string of steps usually involved. You can find, edit and schedule photos as social updates in one place and that cuts out a huge amount of time and the need for multiple accounts and tools. PLus being able to upload/store photos in one place makes is easy to find and repurpose those photos when you want to.

The other thing that I love is how you can enter one status update into the box and then edit/schedule it across all your networks. This makes it super easy to take one status update and tweak it to fit into character lengths and to be specific for the various networks then schedule all at the same time. Another huge time saver. I don't know of any other tool that makes cross posting this easy.

Finally, one of the things that really sealed the deal for me was the ability to swap out the image in a status update when I'm pre-scheduling a blog post that hasn't yet been published. Typically, when I'm scheduling a blog post that isn't yet published, I get the "page not found" preview. But because I like to plan and schedule ahead, this is incredibly frustrating. Enter MavSocial where I can get rid of that default "not found" preview and upload my own image. That means I can schedule ahead and work the way I want to instead of working within the limitations of a tool.

The price point is right for small businesses like mine, too. There are some decent social management tools out there but they're priced out of reach and seem to be focused only on big brands. MavSocial is a really useful tool that actually works for a small business budget and has helpful features you don't see anywhere else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

As of yet there isn't any Google Plus integration. I would like to see this at least for business page. I've also found that the interface takes some getting used to. It was not as intuitive as would have liked so I did click around a bunch to find things. As of yet there aren't really any tutorials but on the plus side the help and support is great when you contact the MavSocial folks. I found the scheduling glitchy from time to time but this could also be user error because I didn't quite understand how the tool worked when I first started. A starter guide would be really helpful.

"Very effective, helpful and good value for money - brilliant for images"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

Mavsocial majors on digital assets - it is the best suite for easy sourcing, tagging, storing and managing images and video for your social campaigns. The simple editing tool allows you to do all the editing you need, while avoiding the complexity of Photoshop.

It has all the functionality of writing once and posting to many social sites with one click. It also has access to large social media sites in the Far East. The social dashboard allows instant visibility and response to all social conversations in once place.

Uniquely, Mavsocial allows you to post and manage social activity by campaign, rather than just by social network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

No social media tool covers all the bases - Mavsocial included. Like any tool, it takes a bit of exploration to master it, but it is surprisingly intuitive overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Masterful Visual Content Collaboration "
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

MavSocial offers organizations a streamlined way to collaborate on, analyze, and organize their visual content. I love that it offers internationally popular network publishing platforms as well. One of the best features is image editing within the platform. You can make a different version for each network. You can also split test image results. It's such a great tool for driving traffic to blog posts. They are continually upgrading the system and enhancing user interface. It keeps getting better and more user friendly. They listen to customer input. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

There is a little bit of a learning curve to use it optimally. With a little time invested and the incredible customer support, any organization can maximize their use of MavSocial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive social media with a twist"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

MavSocial has all the bases covered when it comes to social media management, but unlike most of the tools out there they have a slight twist. Images (actually all media to be exact).

If you are looking for a social media management tool that does all of the social media channels, campaigns, analysis, scheduling and loads more. They have you covered. But on top of that, they have a focus on images. So they have media storage, for easy re-use and retrieval of images/video etc. And also a few tools to help (edit etc). This is quite an addition to social media tools because the focus in 2014 and onwards is images and video (with audio coming onto the scene with Twitter's recent addition of Audio cards).

What do you dislike about MavSocial?

There is a bit of a learning curve to using the tool, but like anything that has a lot of features and therefore power, you always have to invest a bit of time. So although not simple to use, it is worth the time investment. And if you get stuck, the team is always there to help you get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

" Couldn't do without MavSocial"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MavSocial?

Being a small business and a visual marketing evangelist, I was overjoyed at discovering MavSocial. Using images to generate interest in my brand is absolutely essential in order to cut through all the social media noise and the ability to purchase an image as and when at a price which is incredibly cost-effective for a small biz is wonderful!

I'd highly recommend MavSocial to other business owners (although I'd love to keep them all to myself!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MavSocial?
