What do you like best about HeyOrca?

I love how clean and simple the interface is – especially the calendar view, which makes it super easy to plan and visualise content across platforms. The ability to tag posts by campaign or theme keeps everything organised, and the hashtag library is such a time-saver when building out posts! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

I'd love to see more flexibility in post previews and slightly better built-in analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

HeyOrca makes it way easier to plan and organise content, especially across multiple accounts. The calendar view and built-in tools help cut down on stress and save loads of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

I like the quick responses and engagement from the HeyOrca team! They seem really genuine and are always helpful

I also like the simple overview for scheduling and the details in the user experience is great! It seems like they thought of everything and are constantly improving still Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

I think there are minor changes that would improve the experience for me personally; I find the hierarchy roles may be somewhat restrictive, and I also have been wishing for more flexible calendar settings (specifically I would like to change the starting weekday, and display week numbers). I also think maybe moving multiple posts from one date to another could be simplified, it's a slightly confusing process for me personally.

It would be cool to have a notification setting to recieve an email or notice when a post is published for a certain platform or account, so that you can easily see the upload and review the engagement live. These are moreso ideas for future development, overall I think it's very good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

HeyOrca helps schedule content posting, get an overview of schedule, suggest times for schedule, preview posts, remind me of platform limitations (like Twitters character limit), and overall helps me plan ahead so I can put more time into other things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

I love that I can share actual creative assets and captions with clients within HeyOrca. Previously, I was using Google docs to copy and paste assets and captions and it really was inefficient. This is an all in one platform - you can schedule, share for approval and get metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

I wish there was a way to search for emojis quickly, and save handles oftend used when tagging/collaborating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can easily and efficiently get approvals on captions and actual assets. I also love how I can schedule months worth of assets in a minimal amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

The integrated features like caption generator, hashtag library, link shortener, plus Canva and DropBox integration. Plus, their customer service is unmatched! They also offer a great newsletter and webinars that help me navigate social media trends and updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

The Canva integration is a little odd to get used to and it would be nice to add music to posts in HeyOrca. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helps save me time by having many ways to customize social posts right on the calendar. The review process is so easy and seamless to be able to send the calendars to the client to review and make comments. HeyOrca is seriously a game changer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

HeyOrca is extremely user-friendly and easy to navigate. The customer service is very quick to respond with any questions I may have. The numerous features allow you to customize your experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

It would be helpful to be able to select a thumbnail image when adding a video so the home page doesn't appear black on the client's socials. I believe this used to be an option for Facebook but recently I haven't been able to use this feature. Also it was never an option for Instagram. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Scheduling social media content across a wide variety of clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

Besides the basic scheduling and posting feature, HeyOcra's share and approve content feature is unique and very handy.

I also really like HeyOrca customer support, almost like 24/7 and super helpful.

The team also created the most easy to use platform with webinar and instruction videos.

Plus, their newsletters are amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

I can't think of anything so it's hard to write this one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

Scheduling and posting many accounts at the same time.

No need for manually posting.

Sending content to clients and let them approve the content directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

The most beneficial asset of HeyOrca would be the organization and ease of content creation. As the marketing director for a Destination Marketing Organization, I am constantly having to line up content months in advance. With HeyOrca's Calendar feature, it easily gives me a visual of where content is needed.

I love the tools of time optimization, link shortening, audience narrowing, hashtag library, and more. I use these every day to assist in engaging, intentional, content.

The customer support team has always been excellent and will send you updates on all their newest tools, tips, and tricks. Easy to implement software and very easy to learn.

Thank you, HeyOrca! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

I'd love it if the time optimization transferred to each day, automatically. If I need to move Tuesday's Instagram post to Thursday, sometimes I will forget to adjust the time optimization to Thursday's target time, resulting in less engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

HeyOrca is helping me be more productive with my content creation. Being able to crank out 5 days of social posts, line them up, and approve them for posting, all in one day, is a huge timesaver and helps keep my mind at ease. After I finish lining up my posts for the week, I can wash my hands of it knowing that HeyOrca will post it at the correct time, every time. and if there happens to be a small issue or glitch with facebook or instagram, HeyOrca's team is always the first to know. HeyOrca gives me peace of mind and helps organize our staff! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

I love how easy the system is! I love the bulk create feature in choosing all the platforms I want to make a post for, I love that it automatically posts it for me once I schedule them, I also LOVE the scheduling to TikTok feature- HeyOrca saves me so much time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

Nothing! HeyOrca constantly updates its features which helps when new tools and resources come out like AI captions and hashtag suggestions based on SEO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's solving the time aspect of a Social Media Manager. I have to photograph, videograph, write and produce all my content for various events-HeyOrca makes all the work worth it when I can simply go in and bulk create and schedule the content for all platforms!

What do you like best about HeyOrca?

I was looking for a simple social media scheduler to work with, pretty to look at and fit all of my clients' accounts on one page. I wanted a month-view calendar and HeyOrca had exactly what I was looking for. The customer service is quick and has always helped me figure out any issues I've come up against. I use this platform every day and recoommend it to other social media managers on a regular basis. Connecting HeyOrca to social media channels is simple. LOVE! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyOrca?

The only reason I might not have chosen HeyOrca is the price, but I've learned over the years that you get what you pay for! It is worth the investment, in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HeyOrca solving and how is that benefiting you?

HeyOrca keeps my posts organized and keeps me on track. Whenever I have a question with my account, the customer service team is SO helpful and so quick to answer questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
