  • Reviewing social media data and performance.
  • Social listening.
I use Khoros to help facilitate my data analysis and performance monitoring for our brand's social channels, as well as monitoring earned media and trends. Khoros is a tool that I use to support my other means of data monitoring/collecting, because it combines all channels in one place. The Intelligence Suite provides me with social listening to report on current social trends around our brand.

I used Khoros marketing. It helps us with our social media work. With the help of Khoros marketing, we schedule our content across multiple social media platforms. It really helps us with social listening and monitoring. Analysis and reporting were also decent. I would recommend to users who eat, sleep, and drink social media.

We use Khoros Marketing for our organic social media channels, specifically for scheduling and care management. Personally, I used Khoros Marketing to build an editorial calendar and schedule out posts for the month.

Utilised the application to help our client perform and monitor customer research, as well as to organise their editorial schedule across channels. This tool was mostly used to schedule and approve content and keep track of social media mentions.

Khoros is our all-in-one social platform that allows us to manage our engagement and connections with our audience. We've used Khoros for almost two years now, having used Sprout beforehand. I much prefer the workflow planning options available in Khoros. With this platform, we can easily manage subtasks among team members. We are also big fans of being able to manage our paid and organic engagement intiatives within the same platform. Before, we found it difficult to decipher the reach and engagement we achieved between paid and organic, but Khoros makes it easy.

Social Media posting for around 160 channels. Khoros helps us with scheduling content, managing multiple accounts from one place, handling crises, and gathering analytics for a better decision making. The most useful feature is the possibility to get analytics that help our communication manager to take informed decisions based on relevant KPI.

I use Khoros Marketing to schedule planned social media content and track performance results. Khoros Marketing is effective for my brand's scheduling process because I'm able to schedule on multiple channels simultaneously, create shortened links within the platform, and successfully set each post live without manual posting. We use this tool on a weekly basis (11+ posts per week). Something I'd like for Khoros to add is shoppable product tagging during the scheduling process, though.

While the analytics tool is something we use, as well, I don't use it as often. It's very helpful to have performance results available within Khoros Marketing, but it's a bit difficult to use this tool properly. I've noticed that our Khoros analytics hub has not been pulling in accurate information, and I wish that more measurement opportunities were available in the platform (specific follower count growth, individual post breakdowns, etc.). Setup is confusing and performance hubs are limited. However, the Khoros Support team is very helpful and I know I can speak with someone to help me.

Khoros is a really great social media workflow tool that makes it easy to manager social media content, calendars, workflows and approval processes. We use it internally as well as with external agencies. Makes managing social easier.

It is a good product; some of the specs are really great. Plus, the client support is brilliant- for any issues we have, the team customizes as per our needs and resolves them quickly. The reporting dashboards are really nice, and so is the editorial calendar. The CX dashboard is easy to use and overall it's smooth and a great tool.

We use Khoros both because it syncs up well with other tools we have (e.g., Tableau, etc.), because it supports all of the content we're trying to use, and because of the customizability of the analytics; we're able to generate the reports we need automatically and make our business decisions with them. Staff have been responsive to any issues we've seen arise, and we were very impressed with everyone we've worked with at the company.

Since we are responsible for posting on so many social channels, it helps us post when we are too busy to do it manually. Also when our clients want us to schedule posts on the weekend, it is nice to have the option to do it ahead of time, so I don't have to log into the social media apps on the weekends. However, it does not work for videos or any dynamic assets for me.

We use Khoros for all of our social media needs. From scheduling social media content, to social media analytics and campaign tools, Khoros is definitely our one stop shop for everything we do in social media. With around 8 different channels that we manage with a relatively small team, Khoros gives us the tools to quickly and efficiently manage all of our pages.

My organization uses Khoros Marketing and Care for scheduling content and moderating on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, and Facebook. This tool has been helpful in moderating our audience mentions and comments and allows our team to work together within in one platform to manage this content. Since adopting this technology, our team has been able to manage our social media platforms in a more efficient way. The main limitations of these tools are due to API controls which cause us to go into platforms natively when necessary.

We use it for scheduling social posts, monitoring our incoming social messages, and reporting and analytics. It makes it easy for us to use this across different business units as well as manage these business units and the type of content we are putting out. We do a lot of social monitoring, and the inbox feature helps us mitigate risks and respond in a timely manner.

We use Khoros Marketing to schedule and publish our organic content. In addition, our paid posts are ingested into Khoros so we have a holistic view of all social posts. We have rules and tags setup to help us maintain meta data for reporting. We also manually tag posts.

We use Khoros to upload LinkedIn posts and it is a daily excercise. We use the calendar to plan the timings of our mailings. We also have several approvers in the USA who approve before we launch. We upload video and imagery and produce both business and internal/employee posts.

I use Khoros to create and schedule posts for my client. This makes it easy for the client to see what we are putting out on all our platforms, and approve them before they are put live. I use Khoros everyday, and it makes my life very easy as I can schedule so far in advance.
