About SocialPilot (https://www.socialpilot.co/)

For too long, too many SMBs and growing agencies have put up with underwhelming marketing software products that are "cheap" but painful to use, have too many frustrating features, and have severely delayed customer service and overall a very disappointing experience. And sure enough, as these agencies grow, they find themselves locked in annual contracts worth thousands of dollars for software products that they thought were "discounted".

SocialPilot was created in 2014 to change this.

At SocialPilot, we believe that irrespective of the ticket size, SMBs and agencies deserve enterprise-class software that creates joyful experiences in their day-to-day marketing work. We think that being price competitive does not mean cheap and that just because an agency grows, does not mean that we should start charging them ridiculously. And yes, every customer's business is equally important and deserves immediate attention including 24x5 chat, emails, and phone calls.

As of today, over 5000 agencies and SMBs use SocialPilot to manage their social media publishing, analytics, and social engagement while collaborating with their team and their clients.
