Home · Livefyre/livefyre-docs Wiki. What is Social media management software (SMMS)? - Definition from WhatIs.com. Social media management software (SMMS) is an application program or software suite module that facilitates an organization’s ability to successfully engage in social media across different communication channels. SMMS is used to monitor inbound and outbound conversations, document social marketing initiatives and evaluate the usefulness of a social media presence. At its most basic, social media management software allows an organization to connect multiple social media accounts and manage, monitor and analyze interactions from a single dashboard.

Most web-based SMMS apps permit real-time and automated posting to multiple channels; for example, the same post can be sent to Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn with one click. Such tools, which are often provided as free or freemium services, allow individuals and organization participating in social media to keep track of conversations and evaluate what interests their followers and/or potential customers.

Contributor(s): Emily McLaughlin. The State And Future Of Social Media Management Solutions. The social media management solutions landscape is vast and fractured.

Exacerbating the problem is that even among the 30 tools Altimeter identifies as Social Media Management Solutions, none of them do the same thing.

And there’s no clear definition of what social media management solutions should do. Some of the 30, like WildfireApp, provide a very narrow sliver of functionality (network-specific engagement tools). In an effort to help bring some clarity to you brand marketers, I’ve put some thought into what a social media management solution should provide. The 8 Functions of Social Media Management Solutions Monitoring Often referred to as listening, social media monitoring is now a core function in many tools.
