Thats honorable, as HootSuite is one of the leaders in the social media management software space. The Canadian software company is well known player in our industry.<\/p>\n<p>We think, that HootSuite is a good choice for online communication experts, working most of their time in front of a computer. With Hootsuite they have full control of all the bells and whistles.<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is &#8220;<strong>Making Social Media Marketing easier for everyone&#8221;<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Since quite some time we are working with business people, that have limited\u00a0online marketing knowledge. They often feel overwhelmed with all the available options. Often they only have a fraction of time available for marketing. Did you know, that in small businesses two out of three business owners usually do the marketing besides on their own? Besides all their other duties?<\/p>\n<p>We are convinced, that \u201cless is more\u201d. We focus on simplicity. <strong>Smart software should take smart decisions.<\/strong> Using webZunder as a Social Media Dashboard compares a lot with real life communication. Especially small businesses owners look for solutions to effectively manage their multiple online channels. But recently also managers of larger companies told us, that they start to watch out for simpler alternatives. They are tired of complex enterprise solutions.<\/p>\n<p>When we designed webZunder, we envisioned\u00a0some kind of <strong>&#8220;virtual Social Media Manager\u201d<\/strong>. We analyse the\u00a0steps a Social Media Expert would typically do in a certain situation and decide, if they could \/ should be automated or not.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10770\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/en\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10770\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-10770 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-300x128.png\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-300x128.png\" alt=\"Social Media Management Tool webZunder\" width=\"300\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27300%27%20height%3D%27128%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20300%20128%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27300%27%20height%3D%27128%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-200x86.png 200w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-400x171.png 400w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-600x257.png 600w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-768x328.png 768w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-800x342.png 800w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-940x400.png 940w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo-1024x438.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.webzunder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/webZunder-logo.png 1076w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10770\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Social Media Management Tool webZunder<\/p><\/div>\n<p> While working with business owners,\u00a0we identified typical situations, when small business owners would communicate with their existing customers or reach out for new prospects. That&#8217;s why posting via\u00a0<strong>webZunder is process driven<\/strong>. We provide several &#8220;communication templates&#8221;. Each serves a certain purpose. The template will\u00a0provide an individual form to collect the\u00a0required data and has\u00a0a defined workflow for formatting and sharing the content. We started with simple templates, but support for more advanced processes will follow. We will continuously develop additional templates. For individual projects of a certain size, we will also be able to develop individual workflows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>webZunder collects inquiries, comments and responses<\/strong> from all\u00a0supported channels. Our Social Media Dashboard will group them by their nature (not by their source): Are they public or private? That&#8217;s more important and interesting compared to if they originate from Facebook or Twitter. The nature of communication largely influences the content and phrasing of the answer.<\/p>\n<p>That are just two examples, how we are different.
