## Zoho Social Reviews
  ### 1. Great Concept | Horrible Implementation

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Thommy S. | CMO & Head Of National Branding, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2021

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

The ability to schedule posts was nice. But the limited bandwidth with of high-resolution photos made it an impossible tool to use. So dumb, don't waste your money.

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

The inability to post high resolution photos due to size of file is the absolute worst part of this platform. If they could get that working, this would be an incredible system. However, we ended up having to buy another social posting platform because of their inability to adapt / conform. 

The worst part about all of it though, is that I would always get one of two stories from their IT team:

1.) We're working on it, check back in 2-4 weeks (really, just having me keep paying for something I can't use)
2.)  No social posting platform can accept high-resolution photos. That's completely untrue. EVERY other major social tracking/posting program I've looked at allowed high-resolution photos.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

Quite simply, don't even consider it. If you're putting together a list of services to use, eliminate them from this list (if they're on it). You're better off paying an intern or a full-scale social media team to do what Zoho social did not do. What a horrible service, I feel like I was conned.

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None, I haven't used it in months. I am paying for it, but am now using another service which I'm paying for as well. Their analytics and ability to do conversion rankings are incredible. Zoho social? Non-existent.

  ### 2. Zoho Social did not suit our company's needs

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chelsea G. | Director of Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2022

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

With Zoho social we could add unlimited client profiles and internal users - which was very convenient

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

we found huge discrepancies in the reporting metrics - when I contacted customer support to ask about this, it took 48 hours to get a response and their solution was to "train me" to use the platform properly... which had nothing to do with the discrepancy in the metrics. 

We also experienced a lot of failed posts and constant profile disconnections.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

There are a lot better platforms out there - I recommend Sprout Social. But with Zoho Social, just know you are getting what you pay for.

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

we used zoho social as a scheduling platform - we switched to Sprout Social for more accurate reporting features.

  ### 3. Disorganized

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Heather R. | Training Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

I did not like Zoho, I thought it was disorganized and not user friendly

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

Wasn't user friendly, disorganized, clunky

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We don't use it anymore, trip actions is much better!

  ### 4. Updated: Zoho Free Plan is useless

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 07, 2019

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

I liked how user friendly the service was and its ease of use.

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

After paying for several months of service I decided to switch to a free plan as they didn't currently offer the services I needed. I had about 6 holiday posts scheduled at the time. Without any warning those posts because 'unscheduled' and were lost. I spend a long time creating them and would've appreciated some warning or better yet, for them to go up since they had already been scheduled. Since their free plan doesn't allow that I guess they got bumped.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

I used to highly recommend the free plan for beginners since it is so easy to use. They stripped it of all useful features so I really can't do that anymore.

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Social Media Management

  ### 5. Falls short of its potential

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sam H. | Training, Website & Digital Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2018

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

Price. Was previously using Sprout Social and saved approx. 50% on the cost.

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

Reliability. Messages often don't make it to the inbox or if they do are significantly delayed (e.g. 3-4 hours after the event).

Mobile app. If someone comments on a post, you can't reply to the comment through the mobile app you can only reply to the original post. To reply to someone's comment you have to use the desktop version.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

Useful for scheduling posts but if your business is reliant on social media activity and reactivity then this is not the solution.

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Aggregating social media activity. Enabling social post scheduling.

The main benefit that I have noticed has, unfortunately, been the cost. As a product Sprout Social was superior in almost every way (to varying degrees) but for the volume of SM traffic, not a sustainable cost.

  ### 6. Great way to schedule social media but terrible customer service

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Writing and Editing | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2018

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

I like the ease of use. I've been looking for a service that will reuse my content on a continual basis. Zoho almost has that option but there's a cap on it. I can schedule a post to recur every month for six months. 

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

It's advertised on their website that they have an option to pay with Paypal. I emailed them, and first of all it takes them half a day to several days to answer. Secondly, they have been giving me the run around for days now with no way to pay with Paypal. They have not actually answered any of my emails in about 4 days now.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

Expect that you won't be able to pay with Paypal. THEY WANT YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER!

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can't solve any problems with Zoho if they keep refusing to take my money using Paypal.

  ### 7. Good app

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tom S. | Business Development Manager, Education Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 27, 2017

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

I like the ability to schedule multiple posts in one go using an excel spreadsheet. And I like being able multiple brands. It would be nice to have these features included in my CRM though. 

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

The way Zoho has so many different apps and you have to pay for each of them separately. For a small business I want one system to rule them alll. I'm sick of having to jump from one website to another and I don't know what is the best tool to do the job. I can do the same thing in several places and often feel like I'm missing something which I have in another app. It's TOO modular. 

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being able to post on several platforms and schedule future posts provides great efficiency savings. 

  ### 8. Absolutely Outstanding

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Darryl M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2017

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

easy of use with Zoho Socal is awesome!!

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

There isn't anything I dislike. Great !!

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

Take time to understand the system before diving into the software

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

To improve our customer engagement. We are utilizing Zoho social to extend our messaging across all of our social platforms. We use it to  manage and track our analytics

**Official Response from Ritika Datta Roy:**

> Hi, Darryl. 

Thank you for giving us such an amazing review! 

However, we noticed that the rating that you've given us doesn't entirely match the feedback that you've submitted. Was that a mistake? 

Would you mind updating your rating for us? We'd really appreciate it. :)

Thanks, again. 

  ### 9. Worth what you pay for

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Victor T. | Founder/CEO, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2016

**What do you like best about Zoho Social?**

Easy to connect with other Zoho products, Zoho social is also a good solution for low budget social media management plateform.

**What do you dislike about Zoho Social?**

We had an issue with accents for french posts, they where displayed as question marks. Took more than a month to fix after contacting thier team. They told us 3 times the problem was solve when it was not. They finally fixed it and gave us a discount that they didn't apply.

Analytics are very limited and do not show essential informations for ROI. We where expecting more from a company associated with Google, wordly renown for analytics and data.

There are a lots of bugs on the callendar, posts that does not show up, image and links that can't be on the same posts (sometinmes), re-uploaded images that does not actually upload, crashes, etc.

**Recommendations to others considering Zoho Social:**

Analytics are terrible compared to Sprout social or Hoot Suite
Lots of frustrating bugs in the callendar
Limitted tools
Problems with text display

If you are specialized in social media I would'nt recommend this product

**What problems is Zoho Social solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing social media for a small company with lower budget. Its a good deal for the price, but its a very limited plateform. Also adding other pages or account is very cheap compared to other social media management plateform.
