### "Business Suite all the way!"

June 27, 2025

5.0

I have been with Meta Business suite for several years and I could not be happier. The updates have been actually useful features.

Pros

I love the ability to manage both our companies Instagram and Facebook all in one location. The ability to schedule our social media content easily is also a big draw for me.

Cons

The difference between business suite and the professional dashboard is not always to discern. I find myself struggling to find setting between the two.

Switched from

[Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/)

Hootsuite was often not sharing my content as requested and I would get no notice. It is also nice to have business suite be native.

### "Why Meta Business Suite Makes Social Media Management Easier"

May 22, 2026

4.0

Pros

What I liked most about Meta Business Suite is how easy it is to manage multiple social media accounts in one place. The platform simplifies post management, scheduling, messaging, and analytics while offering useful features that make day-to-day social media management efficient and easy to navigate.

Cons

What I liked least about Meta Business Suite is that scheduled posts can occasionally fail to publish, especially when planned far in advance. It doesn’t happen often, but it can be frustrating when managing multiple accounts and relying on scheduled content to go out on time.

Switched from

[Later Social](https://www.capterra.com/p/152254/Later/)

I made the switch because Meta Business Suite felt much more efficient for managing multiple accounts and platforms. Compared to Later, it streamlined scheduling, messaging, and post management in a way that better supported my daily workflow.

### "Less and less control on our campaigns "

July 16, 2025

3.0

Like I said earlier. When I strated working with Facebook Ads 6 years ago, we had a lot of control of when, where, how and to who were showing our ads. Now everything has become automatic. Want to target an specific audience? The algorithm takes it as a recomendation. Want to target only Instagram and not all the other placements nobody cares about? Thats going to cost a lot more of CPM You prepare an ad with a lot of care? The algorithm is going to crop the creative, put some horrible music on top and say that doing this is going to improve the performance.

Pros

Easy way to generate quality traffic, depending on the market it can be very cheap. Quick way to gain data if you launch a new website.

Cons

Day after day we have less control over the audience we target. Everything is becoming more and more dynamic or automatic.

### "Meta for Business gives every business owner a chance"

April 15, 2026

5.0

Overall, Meta for Business has been a solid tool, especially once you get past the learning curve. The targeting and data are really useful, and when things are dialed in, it can actually drive results. That said, it’s not the most user-friendly platform, and it can feel a bit overwhelming at times. Still, if you’re willing to learn it, it’s definitely worth using.

Pros

What I like most about Meta for Business is the targeting. You can get really specific with who you want to reach, which is huge when you’re trying to promote music or shows to the right audience. It also gives you a lot of data, so you can actually see what’s working and adjust instead of just guessing.

Cons

What I like least is how confusing and clunky the platform can be. There are a lot of settings and it’s not always clear what actually makes a difference, so there’s definitely a learning curve. It can also feel like you need to spend consistently to get solid results, which isn’t ideal if you’re working with a tight budget.

### "Meta business is a must have"

June 20, 2025

5.0

Our consumers are all on social media these days. It’s extremely important that we as a business are too. Meta business makes it easy to manage several pages and accounts at once across more than one social media. It’s very user friendly and does it all.

Pros

It’s a one stop shop and has everything you need in one place for social media. Comments, post, messages, analytics

Cons

When I schedule videos to post them it doesn’t let me crop them which is sometimes annoying but not a huge deal

May 9, 2025

5.0

The ability to track ads performance offers companies great opportunities for ROI

Pros

The leading social platform provides a lot of opportunities for brand awaress

Cons

When ads get rejected the support team is often times from different countries creating a huge language barrier

### "Better than I expected"

March 20, 2025

4.0

I am happy with Meta Business Suite. I used a third-party social scheduler initially but eventually realized that the Meta Business Suite had everything I needed.

Pros

The scheduling feature is what I use most by far - it is very robust. I also like the Inbox feature that lets me see and respond to all the interactions I have gotten.

Cons

The layout of the menus is not the most pleasing. I also feel like some of the menu options could be consolidated to make it feel less overwhelming.

I ended up not needing all of the features that Zoho offered, and Meta Business is cheaper.

### "Excellent for scheduling"

February 19, 2025

4.0

It's been very positive. They often make updates that sometimes can be frustrating to figure out, but are usually for the better so I don't mind.

Pros

As someone who manages social media for a business, it is so convenient to be able to schedule posts in advance, and also to be able to post on IG and FB in the same spot without duplicating work.

Cons

I wish you could add links to stories when you schedule in advance.

[Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/)

Reason for choosing Meta for Business

The cost and ability to schedule multiple image posts for instagram.

### "Useful but unfortunately expensive"

January 19, 2026

5.0

Pros

I appreciate that it helps with social media management, gives me the blue checkmark on my social media profile, and allows cross posting between Instagram and Facebook

Cons

The cost feels expensive for the amount of features actually utilized with Meta for Business. If it wasn't for the blue checkmark, I would not pay for it

### "Facebook Meta ads are a nightmare. Buyer beware..."

December 21, 2025

1.0

I requested an ad for 7 days to spend max $2 a day; ad canceled after 5 days. I was charged $42. Then Facebook deleted my author page. BOA froze my credit card account and invalidated the card. Facebook's Meta is not responding to my request for a refund of $32. I will NEVER use Meta again. It was a horrible experience.

Pros

I have nothing good to say about this business other than the price was inexpensive and they picked the audience.

Cons

They don't review the text until afterward the ad is placed. There is no customer support. They claim my author page was hacked and deleted it. There is no visible support for editing or canceling ads. Arbitrary account restrictions and threats. When I ask for an account report a bogus account is listed under my name. The audience they showed the ad to was almost all people over 65. Why, I don't know.

### "Meta For Business"

November 19, 2024

4.0

I do think it is a way to expand your client viewing. So I am not opposed to the different ways to expand the business.

Pros

The ability to reach clients and customers that we would not normally come in contact with.

Cons

In the beginning the payment method was hard to change. I tried to change credit cards and had to go through too many steps to make it happen.

### "It's a need if you want to improve your business"

September 6, 2024

4.0

I am satisfied with the results lately, but it's hard to work on it. Sometimes it takes too long to load the features. There are some features they have changed that it's not good for Local Business, but on the other hand, the campaings work better than 2 years ago. Their advantage plus option is very recommended nowadays.

Pros

It works fine, because it has a lot of audience. Besides, the Advantage plus is working really fine after a few years using it. Meta is working good to auto-optimize the campaigns we work on.

Cons

It's very slow to work in it. It changes too quickly and sometimes it's hard to find the features we need. Besides it would be nice if it shows better reports of the actions and campaings.

### "A required tool for any digital marketer"

August 7, 2024

4.0

It is a tool which we are required to use in order to be present and run ad campaigns in Meta. I would never recommend it if we had to pay for it.

Pros

Meta for Business is a useful tool for our digital marketing strategy, it handles the different META brand digital assets in a single place. You can program posts and videos.

Cons

It is constantly changing, and something which works today can break tomorrow. (Account associations, permissions, and of course account suspensions without any cause are the major issues we've faced) Also: It is almost impossible to get any help from the current help options. Customer service is terrible.
