Using Rebrandly for setup, generation and management of customized shortened URLs ('vanity' URLs).

Pros

Easy to onboard. Easy to use. Optimized short domain purchase and management. Nothing extra in the interface.

For two brands, it took me less than half an hour to purchase shortened URL domain, set-up redirects and create links.

The pricing is fair and legitimately volume-based.

Cons

No cons. It would be convenient if it integrated more seamlessly with more social schedulers, but the sleek experience they provide is worth a couple extra copy-pastes IMHO.

Hootsuite

Reasons for Switching to Rebrandly

Zero gripes about Hootsuite. We still use it every day for scheduling and are very happy with it, but: (1) We have multiple brands, and needed multiple shortened URLs. This meant a considerable price difference. Rebrandly gives you 5 SURLs for $4 (technically, you can get 5 for free, but then you don't get basic redirecting). Hootsuite prices vanity SURLs as a premium feature. So Team Tier for 1 SURL (5x cost of their Professional Plan), Business Tier for 5 SURLs (25x cost of their Professional plan). Yes, both of these Tiers come with a lot more firepower than just additional vanity SURL support, but it in our case, we only needed SURLs. (2) The shortened URL experience in Hootsuite, while quite good, seems designed for larger marketing teams. More steps than we needed.

Since I use Rebrandly I feel confident the best URL Shortener that others.

Pros

Rebrandly is the best URL Shortener in terms of user specific needs, I like rebrandly because it not force users to buy its plans with all features it allows us to purchase the amount of links we want to use at a reasonable price. That'a why I prefer Rebrandly and it gaves us freebies time to time it is the best part. Because I get my personalized domain for my links for free.

Cons

I use rebrandly since last 1 year and still I not faced any single problem while using Rebrandly.

This app is a scam

Reviewed on 2024/03/21

Pros

I paid for an annual subscription. Once you paid, tell you how limited your options are, and they push you to keep upgrading your membership to get what you need. Their reports are a scam, a nightmare to set up and highly inaccurate. Customer service level is low and after hours of trying to get any help, you get nowhere. There claims are misleading and it's a scam

We have a lot of files (PDF) that we update frequently. With Rebrandly, we can have one link and place it everywhere. When we need to update the file, we can do so just by updating one short link.

Pros

The easy of use when setting up Rebrandly is a real highlight. Most other services don't allow custom domains on the free plan. This is great for starting out and has helped us a lot. The 5,000 clicks a month is more than enough for us and anyone starting out.

Cons

The UI can be a little slow at times. We have also had an issue sometimes of links not going to the most up to date link that we entered.

I use Rebrandly for multiple businesses, and the simplicity & integrations make creating and sharing with branded links a breeze.

Pros

An easy to use link shortener that is branded to your own domain. The free version is good to test it out, but many of the essential features are only available to paid accounts.

Cons

Since I've been using Rebrandly, they've consistently downgraded the account tiers, making this service much more expensive.

Overall, Rebrandly is a fantastic app that does exactly what I need it to do in the simplest way possible.

Pros

There are a lot of reasons why I don't use any other URL shortener. For one, getting a branded short URL is dead simple with Rebrandly. You don't even have to deal with 3rd-party registrars or DNS settings. Just purchase the domain through Rebrandly and you're set. Also, Rebrandly makes it easy to add UTM tracking to shortened URLs.

Cons

I don't like that Rebrandly has yet to penetrate the market for 3rd party integrations. Would really love to see the more adoption with apps like Agorapulse.

I have a lot of links to shared onedrive and dropbox folders to give out to clients, they are almost gobbledegook if trying to read out or type into a website from a printed letter or flyer so I needed to make them branded with our company and easy to use. The ability to check if they are getting used and from where is a good plus point

Pros

The speed and simplicity in adding a subdomain to the account and was very quickly up and running with my branded links. Now instead of deciphering a cryptic link from one of my dropbox or onedrive shares they are now branded english links

Cons

The jump between the free and the starter is a massive gulf I would like to see cheaper price after free with a few more features that smaller companies can use.

Rebrandly has made it so much easier to share links on social media, and especially via printed materials. Since the links are shorter and easier to read, it's much easier for people to type them in. Turning long referral urls into short easy to read urls has been really important and useful for our business.

Pros

The ability to make great looking short links to share on social media or on printed material. The system was also relatively easy to setup and connect to me current domain name. I like the option to also purchase more domains directly from them. Being able to use my current URL and create a custom version was probably the best feature of this product.

Cons

I've had no major problems so far. The only thing I've noticed is that there is no Safari extension option, just the bookmarklet for creating branded links. They do have a macOS app, but I'd rather not have another button in my menu bar.

Rebrandly has become an essential piece of our tech stack puzzle for marketing, given our focus on physical marketing, QR codes and redirects.

Pros

Rebrandly is incredibly easy to use and it took no time for our team to get comfortable. The tagging makes our attribution that bit more powerful and insightful. Rebrandly is powerful for web redirecting which was a crucial aspect we were missing in Branch and desperately needed. Brand enables us to change links once they've been created which can be really helpful in certain instances.

Cons

The pricing can be prohibitive due to limits on the amounts of scans they allow before you have to upgrade. As opposed to licenses able to access the platform which might be better for a business like us that generates thousands of QR codes with millions of scans.

We were paying $250/mo, they told us we could pay $99.-Then, price increased to $119 with 7 days notice.-For the last 2+ years, when we went over a certain amount of links per month, we were billed accordingly for the overage-Now, we cannot create any more links until next month, unless we pay $4299 up front for the year.-Chat support team didn't see the urgency that our platform is down, because of this.-We are forced to now code a new short link system urgently, so our users aren't affected.With processes like this, and amateur pricing + support tactics, I don't think Rebrandly is as big as they advertise. We are looking into other platforms / git repos to build our own for free

This is very easy to use and create new, rebranded links for any URL. You can also edit those links so if your target changes you can update the branded link with the new target URL and not have to change the one you are sharing.

Cons

I do not recommend tying your Rebrandly account with Clickmeter as you will not be able to go back and edit them later. I had to delete all my Clickmeter links and start over so I could edit. Also, the stats are limited with the free account.

Making Branded Links Easy

Reviewed on 2022/01/20

Pros

The UX of the software is really what makes Rebrandly shine. Some of the other competitors interface can get a bit overwhelming. As soon as you log in you have a next chronological list of your shorten links, a nice description and the ability to clink into each link to view metrics. The utility of link shortening software is pretty straight forward across most companies, however, it's the easy-of-use that is the primary differentiator. We use a very scaled down version of Rebrandly, so I it can get pretty complex the more you scale up your needs. For a small- to mid-sized company wanting to have branded shorten URLs and an easy way to track traffic through links, this is a easy as it gets.

Cons

Honestly, there isn't much I don't like. As I said above, we purchased a smaller package with the knowledge that we were using it to meet a very specific need. If we were using at the enterprise level or going beyond link tracking, my response could be a bit different.
