7 Reasons NOT to use Sprout Social
Do you use a Social Media Management Tool?
If so, do you use any of the following?
– Hootsuite ?
– Sprout Social ?
– Oktopost ?
– MavSocial ?
With so many tools out there, all of which promise to save you time and help you be more productive and efficient, how do you make the right choice?
I’ve written a couple of reviews on Hootsuite (the why and the why not) and I thought it was about time for me to write a detailed article on the second most famous social media management tool out there- Sprout Social.
In this very detailed article I go into the advantages in using Sprout Social, but mainly on why you might NOT want to use it. I am actually a Sprout Social fan, but it is sometimes easier and more helpful looking at what a tool does not do so you can better make a decision. It might be that you work out the Sprout Social is the best tool for you after reading the article. If so, great!
It is my intention to write another article on Sprout which covers why you might want to use it- to give a more balanced view.
So, let me know what you think. Are you a Sprout Social fan? Do you prefer another tool? Or, do you use a selection of tools do get your tasks done?
I’d love to know your thoughts- let me know!

Oh, and if it’s not too rude, I’d love to ping in a few people I respect…
Mike Allton because I know he’s a Hootsuite fan
Carol Lynn Rivera because I always love what she has to say
Brooke Ballard because I quoted her in the article and she just lurves Sprout Social!
Liz Jostes because I also quoted her in the article and she went head to head with Justyn Howard (CEO of Sprout)
Mallie Hart because I always value her opinion
Emeric Ernoult and not because he founded one of the alternative tools I recommended!
Chris Hodgeman nothing do with MavSocial (again one of the alternative tools)
Dustin W. Stout not because he is just too awesome for his own shoes, but because he like me prefers using a variety of tools rather than “One Tool to Rule them All”
Mark Traphagen because I respect his view on, well just about everything!
John Dietrich because he has been such a helpful guy, I respect him and would be interested in his thoughts.
Was that rude to ping you all? Hope not- would love to hear your thoughts, but please feel free to move along…! 🙂
