Your experience with other tools
- “It's not just a bill I pay every year. At Sprout Social, I paid a bill every year. And it was fine, but I paid a bill every year and I couldn't tell you who my Account Rep was. But already we've formed a relationship with you guys that is very valuable to us.” -- Brian Ligon, City of Mont Belvieu, TX
- "I originally was juggling going to every single social media account and organically posting everything, and it was a pain in the neck, to say the least. So having everything—all of our social media platforms for all of our agencies, as well as all of our platforms—in one place has really helped." -- Kathleen Cox, Communications and Media Relations Manager, City of Sweetwater
- "I really can’t say enough about Social News Desk. For the amount of time I’ve been in this industry, I have looked into so many different platforms and they just can’t compete." -- Andrea Smiley, Communications Coordinator, Genesee Intermediate School District
- "I just knew that verbiage, that layout, that everything. The deciding factor was the cost. I reached out to SND and asked, How much would this cost? It was a fraction of the cost of what we were using. It saves us a ton of money. It spits out the reports for us—metrics and data—and it’s just easier." -- Chris Shadrock, Communications Director, Boerne, TX
- “The customer service with SND is like no other. You can’t go wrong with Social News Desk. It by far blows all the other social media platforms out of the water.” -- DeAnn Hays, Communications Specialist, Middle Tennessee State University
Your experience with SND
- “You really are an integral part of our team. And we can't do what we do at the level we want to do it without you. And it's a partnership and it's a friendship. I'm happy for you guys that you've moved into the government space.” -- Brian Ligon, City of Mont Belvieu, TX
- "We're going on our second year with Social News Desk and the price point is perfect for our budget. The customer support is worth it alone in my opinion. They are quick to answer our questions and they're always looking for ways to innovate and help out the comms folks." -- Kathleen Cox, Communications and Media Relations Manager, City of Sweetwater
- "I really like how the team responds to our needs. We asked for LinkedIn, we got LinkedIn. We asked for Nextdoor, we got Nextdoor. SND’s Search and Listen tool is really important for Nextdoor because we can see that chatter and maybe get ahead of it and tell our own story instead of letting everybody else tell it." -- Andrea Smiley, Communications Coordinator, Genesee Intermediate School District
- "We've been so glad to be with you guys at SND, and off of Hootsuite - it has been smooth sailing. You've made things so easy!" -- Rudi Alcott, Sound Publishing
- "It was so easy to pitch SND to leadership of how we should switch from Sprout Social. You guys are great!" -- Sarah Nolting, Town of Little Elm TX
- "I have come to love SND. We used Hootsuite prior, but I love SND more." -- Jared Allen, Alpha Media
