Great RSS Reader

Reviewed on 2022/03/03

Pros

I use Feedly since Google's RSS Reader disappeared a long time ago. I love it! I use it both on my phone and laptop daily to keep up with the news and articles related to my work. I also like the "save" feature which lets you save a post to read it later. It is also very easy to add new content to follow.

Cons

Sometimes it takes a couple of hours to provide new content, but it might be because of the free version I use. I can't think of anything else.

Cons

Some webpages couldn't load for quick read, i know it is not Feedly's fault but a solution would be awesome

Feedly is in a unique position to capitalize on its unique feature set, but unless more serious competitors enter this space, I expect prices to remain high.

Pros

Feedly is the only product I could find that offers the features that most "lightweight" RSS readers lack: the ability to process feeds using machine learning and the ability to have team-wide sets of RSS feeds.

Cons

Feedly has the concept of an "organization" and a "team," but an organization can only have a single team. It would be much more effective if we could have multiple teams under the same organization. Feedly is expensive; it could use some competition to help drive prices down.

Good way to have your news curated and delivered on a single platform

Reviewed on 2022/04/03

Pros

I like the fact that I can have all major news platforms and their content aggregated on a single platform

Cons

The fact that it is based on a technology that not all content producers are plugged in, thus reducing the apps capacity to fully substitute the need to visit each website individually

I decided to use Feedly as a time saver for my trend analysis and platform update research for my agency. I'd previously spent hours culling through my sources looking for relevant industry information, but with this web app, I was able to open ONE link to see all my sources.
I teach all the new people on the team to use Feedly.

Pros

Feedly's capabilities as a source aggregator saved me hours and ours of research every week.

Cons

I wasn't able to figure out how to only pull specific topics within the categories. It ended up being fine because I narrowed in on the pages I needed to pull from, but it would have been great to be able to add keywords or topics.

My overall experience with Feedly has been good. I have used it as a content source for over 3 years.

Pros

I use Feedly for most of my social media posts. It creates enough different feeds where I can find content for most pages that I promote.

Cons

There are some days where the feeds have limited content for the pages I need to post for. I end up not posting on that day.

Feedly has integrated itself into my morning wake-up routine. I have tried to find alternative services to see what is out there, but I find myself never temp to change.

Pros

Feedly has made it easy for me to find and manage my news feeds. I have used several different methods over the years but this is the one service that I've never felt the need to look for another. It's easy to use, customizable, and generally just works.

Cons

It has periodically had issues with suddenly showing old entries for a bunch of feeds or other annoying issues. But has overall been quite stable. I have seen some services that claim to display articles based on what you read. While these services have not been nearly as useful as Feedly, this is a feature that I think could be useful.

I'm happy with the service and upgraded to the paid version which includes Leo. It works well with pulling in RSS feeds, Twitter feeds, and newsletters. It's nice to have the info come into a central place than having to go to so many other sources.

Pros

It nicely pulls in the sources I want to follow and provides an easy way for me to scan and determine what I should read. I also like that with the paid version you can pull in newsletters via a feedly email address.

Cons

There is a cap on the number of newsletters you can pull in. And I wish it were easier to ignore certain items such as ones with foreign languages.

Pros

Feedly is my best reader

Reviewed on 2018/08/07

Pros

Generally, Feedly is perfectly ideal for quick reading of subscriptions. Each category of subscriptions or posts of one blog for you is a mini-magazine that you can read fluently both at the counter in the store or meticulously, at home on the couch. All the management of Feedly - it's comfortable and simple strokes on the screen.

Cons

I do not quite understand why the connection of Feedly with the free IFTTT costs money. Perhaps there are other ways of monetization.

Response from Feedly

Hi Nataliia, thanks for reviewing our product! Feel free to reach out to our support team if you have questions about our integrations, we'd be happy to help!

Pros

Feedly makes gathering blogs and news easy. I cannot imagine having a feedreader to collect information from all my sources each day.

Cons

I miss the community aspect that Google Reader had. Having the ability to talk with friends about the content of various posts and articles made reading much more enjoyable.

Feedly is a good choice for users who are looking for a customizable news aggregator that is easy to use and integrates with other apps and tools. However, the lack of social features and the cost of advanced features may be a drawback for some users

Pros

Feedly allows users to curate their own feeds, selecting sources and topics that are relevant to their interests.Feedly has a mobile app for both iOS and Android, making it easy for users to access their feeds on the go.Feedly uses a card-style interface that allows users to quickly browse through articles and content without the clutter of ads or other distractions.

Cons

While Feedly is free for basic use, more advanced features, such as the ability to search and save articles, require a paid subscription

My experience is positive for the most part and once I can afford to upgrade I will. I like to get as much information into my brain without signing up for more newsletters that I know I will never read. That would create an even bigger spam box.

Pros

I like being able to follow my favorite content like websites, blogs or magazines without having to fill up my inbox with newsletters. I don't need everyone to have my email especially if it's the first time I discovered the site. I prefer Feedly. It's an easy-to-use app that lets me save a blog or magazine site and follow it. I can keep up with what is new and organize it into categories.

Cons

Well, you can get enough use with the free version but you are limited to how much you follow and content create a ton of categories unless you subscribe to the premium version.

A lot of time is saved finding the content you need to share. Even keeping up to speed on your industry or skills is easy-peasy.

Pros

Well, this is a lot like that, only quite a bit better. Feedly is a critical tool for any marketing team that needs to find good quality content to share. Feedly even has the ability to make it a collaborative process. Bookmark, share, schedule, and save your favourite sources by theme.

Cons

Sometimes apps have arbitrary pay-points, and in some ways, Feedly feels this way. Lots of value in both free and paid plans though

Response from Feedly

Thank you for your review, we truly appreciate taking the time to give us positive feedback! Happy reading :)

Everything in one place

Reviewed on 2022/06/03

Pros

I love that all my information feeds are in one place and that I can search based on my interests. This allows me to share easily and also view differing perspectives on the topic of interest. I can also track my competitors and this assists market research.

Cons

Would be great if I could schedule posts directly to LinkedIn from the app. It allows you to share immediately but it would be great to be able to schedule the post. I currently use another app (not using integration) with feedly so that I can schedule posts but it would be better if feedly could do that.

Awesome and i never had any problem using it, the free plan are awesome the paid plan are more awesome, the only downside is the search feature are only available on premium plan.

Pros

- Feedly are a very good alternative RSS reader after Google Reader discontinue
- fast & many layout design for reading the content (compact, magazine etc)
- the free plan offer an OK function
- Black themes
- Image thumbnail are pre-chaced, so i can see images from a website that blocked in my country.
- recommendation feature on similar content are super-super awesome

Cons

- no search function for free user
- sometimes i overwhelmed with how much rss website i subscribe.
- ads are in the middle of the rss feed, the same design with content, very very sneaky way to get a high click rate, but i dont blame them as it is a free version.

Overall, Feedly is a huge time saving tool for me as a time poor Salesperson. I can achieve in 20mins what what usually take hours of scaaning the web for information. I highly recommend Feedly.

Pros

My primary use for Feedly is for keeping up to date with my Clients in the media which is critical to my role. Feedly allows me to aggregate all the media alerts of my clients into a single, easy to digest, platform. I can then spend 10-20 minutes each morning reading the lastest news and alerts about my clients and take that knowledge into my days meetings and interactions. It enables me to be alot more informed.

Cons

At the beginning I found it slightlty confusing to set up and differentiate my news list. However quickly learnt the process and was on my way.
