### Customer Experiences

- **The automatic push sending works well and we've experienced very few problems. We've used various other tools, Later, HootSuite etc, but this works best so far.**  
  Stewart Curtis, Small Business Owner
- **I get things done in half the time as I did when I used Later. I love the ease of scheduling my posts. I also like how I can edit according to the platform I will be posting on.**  
  Anna H., Social Media Manager
- **We tried some different platforms, Later.com and Buffer, but those didn't seem very intuitive. It needs to be easy enough for our clients... Loomly seemed like the best one for that purpose.**  
  Loomly Customer
- **Loomly is intuitive and easy to use. It saves me time. I switched from Later and Semrush scheduler back to Loomly after sometime.**  
  Anonymous G2 Reviewer, Financial Services Industry
- **I switched to Loomly after trying out the big three (HootSuite, Buffer, Later) and finding that they didn't fully suit my needs for full content approval process.**  
  Andrea Huff, Account Manager, MarketSource Inc.
- **I have used Buffer, Hootsuite, and Later prior to Loomly. Loomly far outweighs these 3 platforms in terms of usability, teamwork, management, content suggestions, and more.**  
  Jade Pope, Marketing Director, Greystone Engineering
