Overall, ok experience. The benefit of being able to advertise on their platforms outweighs the frustrations: constantly removing targeting options that are helpful for us, always making it harder to build custom campaigns versus their AI suggested, and the nonexistent support is frustrating when we have ads that get disapproved.

Pros

I love the self-serve options and customizations

Cons

How glitchy it can be when loading campaigns or trying to publish ads. Also, I've been working in it for 10 years so am well-versed, but for newcomers it's definitely a good learning curve to get maximum benefit out of it (and not be taken advantage of by all their AI options that are automatically suggested).

A must have for online businesses

Reviewed on 2024/11/17

Pros

Perfect centralized platform for managing ads across Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. I particularly appreciate its intuitive interface, which simplifies creating, managing, and analyzing ad campaigns. The detailed audience targeting options are impressive, allowing me to reach specific demographics with precision. Additionally, the analytics dashboard provides real-time insights into campaign performance, helping me adjust strategies quickly. The integration with Meta Pixel is also a major plus, Overall, it's a comprehensive tool for businesses aiming to enhance their digital marketing efforts.

Cons

While Meta for Business is powerful, it has a steep learning curve for beginners. The interface, although feature-rich, can feel overwhelming at times, especially when navigating advanced tools like Meta Pixel or A/B testing. Another drawback is the frequent updates, which sometimes disrupt workflows or require re-learning certain features. Additionally, customer support can be slow or inconsistent, making it challenging to resolve technical issues quickly. Lastly, ad costs can escalate rapidly without clear guidance, which might be a concern for smaller businesses with limited budgets.

Basic social promotion but ads need to be dialed in and be wary of promotions

Reviewed on 2024/04/05

Pros

I like being able to post content to Facebook and Instagram and I like how WhatsApp has been able to be customized more for businesses

Cons

I don't like how they promised me and ad credit for running ads and they never delivered on their promise

Alternatives Considered

WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Business Suite

I would say it's an average experience. It gets the job done but doesn't wow me. For advanced scheduling I use a third-party tool (ContentStudio) rather than directly through Meta.

Pros

It makes it pretty easy to collaborate and connect to my client's Meta Accounts.

Cons

There are updates being made a lot and oftentimes links won't take you to the right spot and jump back to broken links or missing links.

Overall, I love the product when it's working properly. When there is a service-wide glitch, it can be painful.

Pros

Meta is a powerhouse for targeted image ads. Its a necessary part of most full scale marketing campaigns because you can achieve great results.

Cons

Meta's customer service is almost non-existent. You bounce from an automated message to a real person constantly redirecting you to another team which will then redirect you back to the first team. It won't get resolved if you can't solve your issue yourself.

Meta for Business is a necessary evil. It works and generates business, however there are obvious quirks with the software that are a continuous annoyance. The UI could be a little more straightforward, but I understand they jam in a lot of "features".

Pros

It works to generate business, it's not perfect but we run a lot of ads and generate a lot of leads.

Cons

UI not straightforward. Weird quirks that make completing somewhat normal tasks difficult. Support and getting responses is sub par.

I have had a good experience with Meta and it has improved our work on Social media by giving us tips and tricks on how to best utilize the system.

Pros

Integrated with large social media platforms. When first using, Meta gives you a lot of support in setting up and how to use Meta.

Cons

Customer Support takes quite a while to get back to you in regards to support questions.

Pros

I can't imagine managing my page without meta, it's a companion tool for page administrators, I love the variety of Kpis, the possibility of planning, launching and monitoring an advertising campaign and manage the commun. All this is for free. I should also mention the fact of being in contact with the community, understanding their preferences, expectations and reactions really helps us produce adequate content and ensure good performance of the page.

Cons

Nothing to mention about inconvient of méta but I would Like to have all social media included in for example ( Linkedin, Tik tok et Youtube...)

Zero benefits. Tons of headaches. They actually gave my Instagram username which I paid a consultant to grow to 3000 and manage content to a pervert looking for sex with women. I probably have a defamation suit, too. But I'm sick of thinking of this disgustingly greedy company.

Pros

Instagram. I so so so sad Meta purchased it.

Cons

I sued them for Gross Negligence and won in San Diego Superior Court. This is how the racket works: The hackers post child porn to the small businesses controlling FB page which get you locked out of all your Meta Platforms profiles. The hackers then charge advertising for their most likely fraudulent products to the payment-methods-on-file for small businesses they hack using child porn, which I was. The hackers charged much, much more than my small businesses budget ever would allow.. Then the hackers get to sell their fraudulant wares to Facebook and Instagram Users to victimize them (all on the small business victims dime.). The hackers win because they sell their fraudulent wares using the hacked accounts of small business victims. And Meta wins because they get tons more advertising sales to report. The losers are child porn victims because they drive up the value of child porn and us, the legitamate clients who advertise on Meta Platforms, as well as, the Facebook and Instagram Users who get tricked into purchasing the fraudulant wares. (This would explain why Meta doesn't offer easy access customer service support to the small business advertising clients that were victimized by the hackers. Gross Negligence is more profitable than safeguarding paid advertisers and Users. At the end of the trial, the Judge informed me that Meta gets paid no matter what -- because they get to keep the money. Banks don't go after fraudulant charges if it's cheaper not to.

We have really enjoyed using Meta for Business overall and look forward to using it more in the future.

Pros

At the Indiana Historical Bureau, we like that we can create a post and publish it simultaneously on Facebook and Instagram, which has helped grow the latter account substantially. We also really like the post planning tool, which allows us to schedule posts weeks or even months in advance, saving us time on social media work.

Cons

We have found that some of the wayfinding for components of the application is a little difficult to discern. It is not always obvious when you're switching from a personal account on Facebook and when you're using the official IHB account. This component could be made much easier.
