Surprisingly brilliant. Didn't expect to be wow'd.

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: We signed up to a subscription to Locowise last November to help with our month's end reporting. We expected to use it every month for that purpose only, but upon receiving the training given and exploring the software, we use it everyday to refine the content we design and which designers we select for different projects, understand our clientele and, more importantly and surprisingly, learn the trends and work habits of our staff and design softwares we use.
Locowise has comprehensively helped in the day to day running of Aanda and has both saved us money but also allowed us to quantify any returns we may be seeing.
Locowise helps us secure customers and retain them through a series of features, including white label reporting, immediate and updated KPIs and the functionality where we know we are getting deep analytics, but as the platform isn't antagonistic in its style, it works with even the simplest of my interns to help guide them through every step of reporting and learning from quantifiables.

Pros:

Ease of use depth of information White label functionality

Cons:

None

Make better decisions by understanding the quality of your social media content

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: We are able to create comprehensive yet easy to understand reports that showcase the health of our content strategy. Even better, we're able to share it with our clients in a PDF so they can red the report in an easy way. Features like Content Drilldown give you the power to tweak your content strategy and find insights on what's working for your social media community.

Pros:

We like how organized the data is presented. You have different sections each telling you a key performance indicator of your content strategy: engagement, growth, reach. The data visualization is clear and you can sort your content by type or date. You are able to understand in a matter of minutes what is working in your content strategy and even better, what needs to be changed.

Cons:

Sometimes the growth chart can display data incorrectly, like all of a sudden you have 0 followers and then the chart goes back to your correct follower count. Other than that this is a pretty solid metrics analysis tool.

Locowise is a great social analytic tool!

4.0 10 years ago

Comments: Locowise is a great platform to easily monitor and understand social analytics and benchmark against competitors. It's very user friendly and gives great depth of data, especially for engagement rates. The customer services is amazing and they are incredibly quick to listen and respond to feedback which I've had yet to find with other brands. They are always asking for ways to improve and it's great that my suggestions are taken on board, some have even been implemented into the platform. I would highly recommend this platform for companies that are looking for an effective, quick way to pull together social analytics + track progress.

Pros:

Easy to use Lots + lots of great information displayed in a variety of formats (bars, pies, clouds etc) Great value for money Excellent engagement analytics + content analysis Can benchmark against consumers Really good Twitter insight

Cons:

Can only compare 3 brands at any one time Exportable reporting is very basic Can only extract data in PDF format - not individual images. Data can take quite a while to load compared to other platforms. Can't see competitors content.

I hope we have now delighted you further since the arrival of v2. Reports now in PDF, PPT, fully exportable data and custom dashboards. Competitors content is also full integrated with analytics within Benchmarking. Thanks for the support!

Well worth it!

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: Locowise is great.  Been using it to track my pub and restaurant's social media profiles (Facebook and Instagram mainly) for 6 months now and I've learnt more than I could possibly imagine.   It helps when understanding what my audience reacts to, what content driving them to book a table with me, and more importantly, what doesn't work. All I need is to directly connect one table reservation back to the optimisation feature, and it has paid for Locowise for a month or more. I can safely say Locowise is responsible for 5 times more return than I pay for it each month. Easy to use.  Couldn't recommend it enough.

Pros:

- Ease of use - Clarity of information

A fantstic way to plan content.

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: Locowise's tools have dramatically lightened the load in planning our social content roll-out. It helps us to see what works, when it will work best, and how to target desired audiences on specific platforms. It is also able see what our competitors are doing to either get out of the way of their content or program against it. By assessing past success and failures of our own and our competitors content it grows better overtime.

Pros:

Easily seeing when to post for best results. Separating out all social accounts to see what works for each product on each platform. Assessing what works for competitors. Easy single page stats and reports.

Cons:

It can be expensive if social media is not a major sources of leads.

Best social media analytics tool

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: Locowise is a great suite of tools that not only makes our customer reporting less burdensome but also provides us with tools the team can use to optimise performance and increase ROI. In the year we have been using Locowise we have seen a constant stream of enhancements and new features at a pace that sometimes seems unbelievable. Final comment has to be on their support. I challenge anybody to get a response from a vendor that is even close to as fast as these guys.

Best social media tool out there

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: Used a bunch of other tools to try and refine our social media content for our FB and Twitter campaigns. Nothing matched the ease and depth of Locowise. Literally tells me when to post and what to post. Easy as that.
Love the guys running it, always there if there is a question. Always on the end of their phone with an answer.

Fantastic Piece Of Software

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: We used Locowise at NOW TV. It's a fantastic tool that really gives social content marketers the insight they need to communicate results to management, as well as provide data to ensure any content marketing strategy can be fuelled by insights not assumptions. I'd highly recommend it to anyone managing social content.

Great Platform!

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: Took a 14 day trial on the advice of a friend as I have never used a social media platform. Within the first day we saw the value that such a platform could bring. We use the content calendar and optimisation functions each and every day. Great time saver. Happy customer here.

SUPERB FIT FOR MY DESIGN COMPANY

5.0 10 years ago

Comments: I own a design agency and would like to put my full support behind Locowise. We were originally asked by a client to use it to help refine the content we developed for their facebook profile. We have decided to bring it is as our inhouse filter to learn the trends about our content. Locowise has taken the position of a fulltime employee. It's great.
