Not user friendly for the average civilian to even set up!! 😤 I installed Buffer yesterday bc of high praise here & on the web, & it's features. Brought Pinterest & FB Business in, but it won't connect Instagram. Tried to merge FB & Instagram as instructed by Buffer (or I think I did 🤷) but it's not recognizing my Instagram business account. The "Help" pages add even more technical complications!!🤦 It shouldn't be this difficult to set things up! Sorry Buffer, but I'm going elsewhere. 🤷

Would be 5 stats, but (1) some glitches with Pinterest. Changes made to my Pinterest account (boards) aren't reflected in Buffer (web OR app) even DAYS later. Only remedy was to delete the connection and add it ahead (losing my whole queue in the process). (1) Some features on the web would be nice to see in the app, like randomizing the queue, and adjusting the posting schedule.

Awful and worthless. Less and less of the options originally purchased for, no notice of change. No more customer service. It is difficult to impossible to terminate once you buy a plan. Avoid. Additionally, while they responded below, they did NOT answer the email requested, nor did they issue a credit for the months not used. Started out as a great company, and now it's just not reliable or transparent, and it is without customer service.

Buffer gives the ability to schedule the same posts across multiple platforms while also giving the ability to tailor those posts to fit the style of that platform. Easy to use, simple program that outruns other similar apps I've used in the past. If you're looking for a program to schedule your posts, this is it. The only thing I'd say is that it does not give you any option to monitor interactions in-app (like Hootsuite does). But the free options are better on Buffer for scheduling.

Decent product but easy to get overwhelmed with content if you skip a day or two. Combined with no ability to "dismiss all" has me looking at alternatives. I've asked for the feature time and again. It seems to be falling on deaf ears. I find it amazing how lacking one important feature can take a product down from excellent to mediocre.

Did the update and now it's messing up stating "whoops, something went wrong, try again" or it just takes forever to upload a picture and then it says it didn't load it. Very frustrating when it worked just fine until the update. It'd also be nice if you can send one post to every social media you've got linked to your account. Instead of separate ones per account.
