Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Community Manager

Weighted verdict

Answers the comments, including the angry ones, and lives in the inbox. Wants every mention and message in one queue with ownership and history, saved replies that save real time, and a failed 3am post that tells her rather than silently not existing.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Scored by The Community Manager

Publishing & calendar

How this is scored

Scheduling across networks: per-network formatting, the calendar as a working surface, bulk operations, and what happens when a post fails at 3am.

0 — One post to several networks at once with no per-network variation and no calendar.

3 — A calendar with scheduling and basic per-network text variants; failures are discovered by noticing the post never appeared.

5 — Per-network content, media and first-comment variants, drafts, a usable calendar with drag-and-drop, and failure notifications with a retry.

8 — Bulk upload and CSV import, evergreen or queue-based scheduling, link shortening with UTM rules, preview matching each network's actual rendering, and stories, reels or shorts supported where the API allows.

10 — Publishing is dependable at volume: hundreds of scheduled items across many accounts without collision, best-time recommendations from the account's own history, and every failure surfaced with the platform error and a one-click recovery.

Report an error

The Community Manager

A centralized calendar that plans posts, stories, reels and videos across profiles, with approvals, campaigns, labels and automated publishing for seven named networks — real working surface. But I found no public information on per-network variants, drag-and-drop, bulk or CSV upload, or the one that decides my nights: failure notifications with a retry, so a failed 3am post stays a post that silently never existed. 4 5

Engagement & community inbox

How this is scored

Comments, mentions and messages in one queue — the half of the job that is customer service wearing a marketing badge.

0 — No inbox; engagement happens in each native app.

3 — Mentions and comments listed per network with no assignment, no status and no history.

5 — A unified inbox across the connected networks with assignment, status and internal notes, and the conversation history visible per person.

8 — Direct messages included where the API allows, saved replies, SLA timers, sentiment or priority flags, spam and hidden-comment handling, and escalation to a helpdesk.

10 — The inbox is a service desk: every public and private interaction in one queue with ownership and response-time reporting, moderation rules that act automatically, and a per-person history spanning networks.

Report an error

The Community Manager

This is my home turf and the pages under-sell it: a monitoring layer surfaces brand mentions from across the web with real-time sentiment, and an Engage module is named in the navigation. But I found no public information on a unified queue, assignment, statuses, internal notes, saved replies or a per-person history — mentions with sentiment flags is a start, a service desk it is not. 2 6

Analytics & reporting

How this is scored

Measurement across networks with different metrics and retention windows, plus the reporting an agency hands a client.

0 — Per-network vanity counts pulled live; no history kept.

3 — Basic post and profile metrics with a short history and no cross-network comparison.

5 — Metrics stored beyond the networks' own retention, cross-network comparison, competitor benchmarking, and scheduled exports.

8 — Custom dashboards, white-label client reporting, paid and organic combined where the API allows, UTM-based attribution into web analytics, and audience demographics over time.

10 — Reporting answers what worked and why: metrics normalised across networks with the differences documented rather than hidden, full historical retention independent of platform windows, and exports an agency can hand over unedited.

Report an error

The Community Manager

Competitor benchmarking against historical data, customizable reports with automated creation, Meta Ads ROI analysis, and exports in PDF, Excel, PowerPoint and CSV — an agency could hand most of this to a client. I found no public information on white-label reporting, UTM-based attribution into web analytics, or how metrics are normalised across networks, and the free tier states one year of data storage. 4 7

Report an error

Approvals, roles & brand safety

How this is scored

How a team of several people and an agency publish to a brand account without an accident — and who can be shown to have approved what.

0 — Shared login, no roles, no approvals.

3 — Separate users with a coarse admin split and an optional single approval step.

5 — Roles per network and account, multi-step approval workflows, comments on drafts, and an activity log.

8 — Client or brand workspaces with strict separation, configurable approval chains including legal review, content locking after approval, and an audit trail of who changed and published what.

10 — Governance a regulated brand could pass an audit on: complete audit trail of edits, approvals and publications, enforced approval before anything reaches a network, granular permissions per account and action, and no shared credentials anywhere in the design.

Report an error

The Community Manager

Simple approval processes with colleagues and clients, guest users who can gather feedback and approve content, idea voting, and separate workspaces per brand are all documented. But I found no public information on roles per network or account, multi-step approval chains, content locking after approval, or an activity log — and without an audit trail I could never show who signed off on what before it went live. 4 5

Report an error

Network coverage & API resilience

How this is scored

Which networks are supported through official APIs, how quickly the vendor follows platform changes, and what the customer keeps when a network breaks or leaves.

0 — A few networks, some through unofficial means, with no statement about API status or platform changes.

3 — The major networks through official APIs, but feature gaps undocumented and platform changes communicated after they bite.

5 — Official API integrations across the main networks with the per-network limitations documented, and a changelog when platform behaviour changes.

8 — Broad official coverage including the newer networks, a public status page for integrations, advance notice of deprecations, and full export of the customer's own publishing and engagement archive.

10 — Platform dependency handled as an engineering commitment: official partner status where it exists, per-network capability documented and kept current, rapid response to API changes with the history to show it, and an archive that stays the customer's whatever a network does next.

Report an error

The Community Manager

Automated publishing spans seven networks including the newer Threads and Bluesky, with other networks handled through the Publish app, which is decent breadth. I found no public information on per-network limitation documentation, a public integration status page, advance notice of deprecations, or export of the customer's own publishing and engagement archive when a network changes underneath us. 4 5 6

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where the archive and the community conversations are processed, who the contracting entity is, which subprocessors touch them. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline. Note that the networks themselves are non-EU by definition — this criterion judges the tool, not the platforms it talks to.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed.

3 — EU hosting offered as an option while the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.

5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — AI features, analytics, support tooling — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU or DACH hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, complete subprocessor list published, and the handling of message content from the networks described with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting and every subprocessor European, certification published, and a DPA that squarely addresses the personal data arriving from the networks in comments and messages.

Report an error

The Community Manager

The contracting entity is German — uphill GmbH, Berlin, with the Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag published under Rechtliches — which is more than many can say. But I found no public information on where the data is hosted, which subprocessors touch it, or how message and comment content arriving from the networks is handled, and that is exactly the chain I would have to answer for. 2

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether a team can compute the real annual invoice for their account and user count — including the tier where approvals and the inbox begin — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A per-user headline exists, but the number of social accounts included, or the tier where approvals and the inbox appear, is unstated.

5 — Per-user or per-account prices public with billing period stated, but at least one commonly needed capability (inbox, approvals, reporting) sits in an unpriced tier.

8 — Every tier priced publicly with account and user limits, feature boundaries, the cost of an extra account or seat, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual invoice derivable for a given number of social accounts, users and client workspaces, with every add-on priced.

Report an error

The Community Manager

The free publishing tier is unusually well documented: unlimited profiles, unlimited team members, 100 posts per profile per month, approvals included, no payment details required. But I found no public prices for any paid tier and no per-user or per-account figure anywhere, so a team cannot compute a real annual invoice from public pages, and where the paid analytics and engagement capabilities begin is only reachable through a demo booking. 4 6 7
