Great

Publer provides excellent value for your money and is very easy to use. I finally found an app that allows me to work with all the platforms I need and offers easy individual post customisation that I am looking for. I've cancelled my other schedulers and look forward to following these guys on their roadmap.

✅ PROS:

- Very clean interface, smooth running
- Ability to bulk post and still customise each post for each platform
- Watermarks for each account are a very cool and saves time
- They added Instagram around a month after I purchased it; yay!
___________________________

🟠 CONS and what I'd like to see IMPROVED:

- Duplicate Scheduling Error: E.g. I schedule three posts to Facebook, GMB, and Twitter. An error comes up saying Twitter is a duplicate post. All okay EXCEPT it doesn’t tell me that my other two posts have already been scheduled. They’re still there. I fix the Tweet and press schedule. This time it schedules all three posts. The problem now is that I have duplicates of the Facebook and GMB posts, and one Tweet.

- Doesn’t tell you when you’ve made a duplicate post (Exception of Twitter); you only discover this by checking the schedule.

- Doesn't allow individual minute selection for the delay between posts.

- Logo Creation #1: A notification that a logo image is unsuitable before you click upload. When uploading an incorrect image, all that appears is a big X. It doesn’t tell me why it can't be used. I have to click the upload button before it tells me that there are requirements for image type and size.
- Logo Creation #2: Opacity doesn’t have an option to input a percentage or number; I would like the specifications for all my logos to be identical but without this option, I have to guess.
- Logo Creation #3: "Size not included in the list" Error. List of what?
- Logo Creation #4: Unable to remove/change watermark once post scheduled; the only option is to delete the post

- Schedule Calendar View: This is the aspect that I feel needs the most improvement. Right now it's very basic and not very helpful. It shows that I have multiple posts on one day but doesn’t say from which platform. Hovering over each post is tedious. If I’m missing a platform, I’d like to be able to glance and figure out which one, rather than clicking to find out.
* Colour-coding based on platform?
* An option to view scheduled posts with an image (like Hootsuite) instead of plain text

- Schedule Filter: There is an option to filter posts by account, but not by platform, i.e. see all posts currently scheduled for Facebook, all for Twitter, etc.

- Reusing Draft Posts: When reusing a draft, keep all the settings previously made. i.e. if I had updated the post for different social networks, keep those changes instead of wiping them when you save as a draft.

- Instagram Zaps: I found the current written instructions very hard to follow with their current layout. I would recommend a video instead.

Hi there and thank you for the valuable feedback (and the tacos).

All valid points that will be taken into consideration.

The "Duplicate Scheduling Error" for example has already been taken care of with the new release :)

Cheers,
Ervin
