While some of the clients you listed above are really awesome (like hootsuite or tweetdeck) they arent full dashboards. Other social media dashboards I like are:sproutsocial (good monitoring), socialguides (can run promotions & deals), brizzly (simple & easy), andargylesocial (can run goals).
thanks for dropping by and sharing those great additions Robert! Of those four, Argylesocial seems the most professional. Gonna try out that Free Trial right away!
I am not into social media as much as I probably should be, but I like using HootSuite, mainly because it is online. This means that I can set it up the way I want on one computer, and then easily access it from another computer with the exact same settings. I have also used Tweetdeck, but I try to limit how much software is installed on my computers.
Yeah, same here: I totally dig social media, but I’m not making use of it enough when it comes to online marketing.
Tweetdeck was one of my favorites, but in the end I just found out I had it because it looked cool. Maybe I should try some kind of social media training some day
Thanks for the kind words!! I really like hootsuite and tweetdeck!!! Social media is a gigantic field and there is so much to explore each day!!
@Robert- I like Sproutsocial and Brizzly too!
is it just me or did you use the wrong picture for Scout Labs?
Hi Serra, thanks for dropping by!
Scout Labs was acquired by Lithium, hence the logo
This article is great for Social Media management, but what do I do once I’ve interacted? Measuring and optimizing is the most important part of the social media marketing equation. You guys should make a list of tools like BringShare.com that focus on the next step of Social Media Marketing, not just maintenance! (Though both are necessary and this article is a great resource!)
Thanks for this list!
Another social media dashboard that deserves mentioning is Pluggio (http://plugg.io)
After several years of using social media, I found that what is important is: 1) how much traffic is social media driving to my site – without traffic there are no conversions or sales, 2) which social networks are driving high-value most traffic to my site – where is my time best spent on social media.
My time is better spent monitoring results over time so I can make better decisions about what tactics work best. So for this, I found http://www.unilyzer.com -its the analytics dashboard that tells me what I need to know.
Cheers and good luck with social media!

You might want to try out TodayLaunch if you’re looking for a social media dashboard. It functions like an email inbox, and makes management of multiple accounts easy with archive features. You’re also able to publish, schedule, and queue to a variety of accounts.
I use the CW Dashboard for my social media marketing. I think it has the most features and they offer ongoing tech support.
Here is a simple but nice app for observing likes, shares, comments and tweets: http://apptorium.com/products/likes
I think this article is the equivalent of a “paid advertisement” and it provides a platform for cronies to plug their own social media dashboard – so basically, this article is a joke because it doesn’t give genuine advice, it’s biased towards the highest bidder. This means that social media, like other media, can’t be trusted to tell the truth because it supports an agenda.
