Reporting

Aggregate insights can only be drawn from a central publishing platform

• Geo-targeted posts must bypass platforms and cannot be aggregated

• Platforms allow you to draw actionable insights across Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, WordPress

Managing

Community management on a global scale is often time-consuming and risky

• Use a platform to govern access and workflow instead of granting full access to everybody

• Scale globally with control
