Business Owner Legal Services ### "Poor choice for small business and multi-lingual users" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 2/10 November 7, 2023 Pros Story chief present a simple editing interface that helps write articles to optimize for SEO and readability. This helps us make sure that our blogs are as effective as they can be in reaching audiences on search. Cons We had 2 main issues with StoryChief. 1. Their SEO tools are primarily geared towards english. We write blogs in English, Korean, and Mandarin and the tools did not work well for the non-English content. 2. Their customer service has an aggressive no refunds policy that is not friendly to small businesses. We had an issue cancelling our account and it got renewed for 1 year. They were not willing to help out in this situation when we no longer needed their product.

I would love to return and get a paid plan one day and see what this has to really offer. Pros The ease of use. Having everything in one tool for content and SEO, publishing, connecting to social media, etc. If you have a content marketing strategy then this is a great tool to have. The UI was easy to understand Cons Of course, it would have to be pricing and only a 7-day trial. I wish I had more time or more money to spare. The UI was basic which can also be a downfall but still easy to use. Could use a more mobile-friendly version.

We use StoryChief to author these articles, review and approve them, and then push them to our social media and to our website https://flinthillsgroup.com/blog/ We depend on this tool and love it. Cons Not much to not like about StoryChief. We searched for other solutions and really found none we liked or could work for us.

CMO Information Technology and Services ### "Kandola Network's review of StoryChief" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 July 13, 2022 Content Management, scheduling posting and understanding engagement metrics. Pros StoryChief allows us the ability to real-time view our SEO and readability scores as and when we create content, which is great. It also suggest edits and changes if the scores don't meet the necessary numbers, which is intuitive, a really good tool to have. Planning/scheduling our content is helpful and receiving weekly insights (and on demand) on how our content performed is great too. Cons There currently aren't integrations with platforms like Discord and Reddit which are essential for Technology companies. This means that we have some content being scheduled out of StoryChief and the rest on their individual platforms. This also means our engagement metrics and numbers aren't centralised. Website performance is also disparate and on Google hence having to use multiple platforms to actually assess our social media engagement metrics makes it a fragmented experience. The pricing currently only works because we are on a Startup plan, otherwise for it's current features it covers only half of our content management demands and would be very expensive. But the startup plan locks you in for a year which means we have to use the platform. It has a slightly steep learning curve. The platform isn't as intuitive.

All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 15, 2022 Hi Krithika, Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback and for sharing your thoughts with us and with others. I'm very happy to see that our SEO feature is providing so much value and that scheduling content helps you focus on other matters. We don't have at the moment native integrations with Discord and Reddit, but you can connect to both platforms through Zapier, which is proven to work great for others. Have you already considered this alternative? This would centralise the metrics and insights, making the job even easier! Don't hesitate to reach out to us through the chat in case you want more information about the possibilities with Zapier. Happy posting! HT Harriett T. Account Director Marketing and Advertising ### "Easy to Use" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 July 12, 2022 help desk really easy to work with Pros So easy to use - really like the blog tool with the SEO elements Cons There are a few things which need to amended Calendar a bit clunky to look at IG grid preview - is there one? Keyword clusters need to be taken into account and or support keywords - only looks a one keyword right now Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 15, 2022 Hi Harriett, Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience, we really appreciate it! Happy to see that you are enjoying our SEO feature, the blog editor and not less important, our support team, they'll be thrilled once I tell them. The improvements that you mentioned are indeed some of the things that we want to improve and update in the future, so stay tuned for our updates and don't hesitate to share any other feedback with us!

Marketing Consultant Marketing and Advertising ### "Great Overall Content Marketing Solution" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 11, 2022 Pros I love that content writers and editors can easily collaborate and communicate through the software while drafting an article. Cons Although you are able to use the website on your phone, I would appreciate a more mobile-friendly version or mobile app to use. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 19, 2022 Hi Kaylee, Thanks a lot for your great feedback and score! It feels great to see that you and your team are able to collaborate and communicate through the tool, as it's meant to be for that! Having a mobile app is a big challenge for us since it requires a lot of technical work, but also it needs to provide value to all the copywriters out there who need to write blog articles. In such a small screen as a phone has, this wouldn't be a great user experience for them, so we are still thinking about this at the moment. Happy collaborating! LP Larissa P. Marketing Manager Education Management ### "Easy to use and helpful" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 July 11, 2022 Storychief has enabled me to formulate, store, plan and post stories and social media posts within one system. It helps me compose concise, optimised articles and automatically receive reports on how our university content is received across our social media channels. Pros Content planning, ease of use, help with story formation and SEO optimisation. Cons Difficulty posting to Instagram, need to use extension browser which doesn't always work. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 15, 2022 Hi Larissa, Thanks for the great feedback and for explaining in a nutshell how StoryChief is able to provide value. We already have a native integration with Instagram, so the Chrome extension is no longer needed, did you have a look yet? Otherwise, don't hesitate to reach out to us through the chat, and we'll make sure you can publish to Instagram natively asap. Happy publishing! LM Lauren M. Director of Digital Media Package/Freight Delivery ### "Best Content Marketing Solution!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 5, 2022 I really love StoryChief. I've used Hootsuite and HubSpot to schedule content in the past, but StoryChief takes the cake. Anytime you need help, the team is super friendly and helpful as well. Pros What I love about StoryChief is how everything is organized. You have a hub where you can create blog articles, events, and schedule social posts. Plus, the analytics tied to this is so important as well. To put it simply, the software just makes sense. Cons My only complaint is that it is difficult to schedule video social media posts sometimes. Switched from [HubSpot Marketing Hub](https://www.capterra.com/p/171840/HubSpot-Marketing/) [Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) [Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/) This provided a hub that would allow both blog and social media content creation AND posting. Previously, we were creating and posting blog posts in our SquareSpace and then scheduling everything else separately. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 11, 2022 Hi Lauren, Thank you so much for your great review, we absolutely love it. We would like to help you when publishing the next video on social media, to make sure that we fix the issues you have experienced. Don't hesitate to reach out to us through chat to have a look together at it. Great to see that StoryChief has simplified your processes and is helping you organize and schedule your content.
