Mass Planner - Mass pain??

8 replies
I'm currently managing a few social media accounts and I'm looking for an alternative to Hootsuite for scheduling and posting.

I'm midway through the free trial of Mass Planner and I'm finding it really complicated and not user-friendly at all.

Has anyone else tried it? I've been using Hootsuite for a while now and they're two very different formats so I wondered if it's worth sticking with it to get used to it. The trial is 5 days so I don't really have long enough to give it a good test so if anyone's got any of experience of Mass Planner, either on its own or compared to Hootsuite, I'd love to hear it.

Thank you!

    These are the other options that I know of "Buffer" "Sprout Social" "Viral Heat" also here is an article that shows most of the options available and the details involved with each. Hootsuite Competitors: 9 Other Social Media Management Alternatives to Consider - Capterra Blog

    Thanks for that, I think I'll give Buffer a try, it looks much easier to use than Mass Planner!
    Have you tried any of these?

    Besides Hootsuite, I recommend Buffer and Postplanner. They all have different advantages it's just a matter of getting a feel for each one. I never tried Mass Planner.

      Wow really, I couldn't get along with it at all. Perhaps it's just me!

      I need to have access to social media when I'm out and about and short of keeping my laptop with me at all times, MP doesn't provide that.

      I think I'm going to try Buffer as it's web based and looks pretty simple to use...

    As a very successful online marketer now for over 20 years I have over 25 servers I control all with teamviewer.... it's pretty much the standard thing for online marketers to have several servers and control them anywhere in the world from something like teamviewer

      Oh sure, yes that makes sense. I'm a much smaller operation so I'm looking for something that will suit an individual.

      Thanks for your insight!
