Agorapulse makes reporting so easy that you’ll never want to wrestle with Hootsuite’s overly complicated reporting process again.

With our super-clear, customizable reports and detailed social analytics, you’ll know the highs and lows of engagement on every platform, detect major trends in your social media activity, and even measure your team’s performance. Plus, you can automatically send your reports right to your inbox.

What people are saying about your brand matters–⁠and advanced monitoring and engagement capabilities allow you to connect with those who want to connect with you. Agorapulse’s monitoring capabilities consistently outrank other platforms with an 8.7 score, which means our platform is the best choice for brands that value consistent engagement with their audience.

With Agorapulse, you can prioritize fast and clear communication using inbox filters, saved replies, bulk actions, and real-time collaboration tools. Label, assign, and bookmark items, so everyone stays on top of content as it moves through your workflow. Plus, our color-coded calendar lets you know which content is in draft, assigned, or waiting approval.

Unlike other platforms, our tools help you get the most out of every piece of content. Organize, schedule, repost, queue, and publish content seamlessly at the best times to boost visibility, engagement, and lifespan of each post on all social networks.

Use our customizable reports to pre-plan and bulk post content to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X (Twitter), and YouTube at optimal times, so you can be everywhere, any time, without lifting a finger.

Track your content in one comprehensive—but never overwhelming—content calendar. Schedule and publish all from a user-friendly, eye-pleasing interface that lets you see everything, from what’s going live today to what’s coming up next.

We know it’s hard to be everywhere at once, so our keyword and topic searches help you stay current on trends, hashtags, influencers, and ambassadors in your online space without the “wild goose chase.”

What’s more, our tool helps you filter out what you don’t need to hear and lets you focus on the most critical conversations that move the needle for your particular business or clients.

Are Jumping Ship for Agorapulse

Jamie Mendelsohn - Lovepop
When we moved over to Agorapulse and we got to a point where we had an inbox that captured direct messages, it captured the listening, and we were able to pull in the ad comments in the same place, we could use it just like we would use any other inbox in our ticketing system.
Stoney Creek Social Media Agency
We manage over 150 accounts just on Agorapulse. [So, the tool we use] has to be user friendly for me and everyone that works with it. And it has to be [a tool] that I know that I can rely on and trust.
Drew Allen - Chief Content Strategist - Fracture
[Agorapulse] is really fantastic because it allows us to connect the marketing side of what we do with our customer support. We now use Agorapulse to easily assign support requests as soon as it comes in.
Reporting & Analytics
I actually can't say enough great things about the reporting with Agorapulse. I feel like that is my job security every month.

Erin H.

Healthcare Staffing

While using other software, like Hootsuite, I would have to post each page if I wanted the copy to be different, but say with the same image. The Hootsuite platform lacked a lot of the customization that I desired and gave me little confidence. Read More

Vanessa L

PR and Customer Relations

Definitely monitoring. It’s very helpful to keep track of comments and mentions. It’s also much easier to understand but more organized than Hootsuite, for example.

Marc C

Digital Ops Manager

We evaluated (Agorapulse) as an alternative to or current software. It does everything that Hootsuite does and more, just in a far cleaner and focused manner. Additionally, downloadable reports come free of charge as part of your subscription and not an add-on. Read More

Ashleigh C

Social Media Maven

I was so skeptical to try, yet another, social media management program. I was prepared for another Hootsuite type letdown BUT I am so glad that I took a deep breath and talked myself into giving one more smm a try. There will be no more let downs, Agorapulse delivers exactly what they claim. Read More

Kerilyn L

SM Consultant

Solves the problem of being able to manage CRM on Facebook ad acquisitions that absolutely no other social media platform (like Hootsuite and Sprout Social) offers! Love the easy tags that I can create on the fly to follow CRM trends that need be shared with the Customer Support Team and Product Development Teams. Great for reporting and planning. Read More
