IdeaScale

Hosted crowdsourcing & crowdfunding apps. That is the short version of IdeaScale. Put simply, it is about scheduling posts, replying to comments and reporting across networks.

Who is it for? Mostly social and community managers. Related areas on their profile: Crowdsourcing and Social Media. They are a very small team, 1 to 10 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

IdeaScale is based in Ottawa, Ontario and founded in 2009. You can read more at ideascale.com.

Our checklist for this category: which networks are supported and whether approvals are built in. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.
