Just purchased this and first thing I tried was to connect Google Business Profile and have already run into a huge issue.Postly is requesting "full owner" privileges which allows them or whoever hacks them to claim ownership, add owners, delete entire profile etc!!Other similar platforms are using the more suited "manager" privileges that gives them more than sufficient access to post, edit etc.The security of you Google Business Profile and those of clients won't be in your control but rather in the control of Postly. If they have internal or external security issues then all the Google Business Profiles would be at risk.At best this is an glaring mistake, but it doesn't give much confidence in the product or security.Haven't even checked the other social media connections yet but scared what one would find with those also and having asked the question they don't seem to know what permissions are set.And don't buy the "we will fix it" when they don't know how API keys or permissions work let alone have any 3rd party security audit done. They have been operating for YEARS and they need to wait for a new client to point out their massive security flaws?!These LTD deals could just be a great way of farming access to people social media accounts with the highest owner privileges. _______________Had a very rude reply on email since posting that review with my concerns.Asked them if any of the other API also had permissions well above what's needed and they replied that they didn't know.Made me wonder that if they didn't have basic technical knowledge then it could be someone else's product rebranded/repackaged. They replied:"Rebranded for us or stolen, that is entirely our private business and none of such comments will be appreciated going forward."Be careful who you are handing control over your social media accounts and your clients social media accounts. You could lose all your social media accounts and your clients social media accounts.I'll be requesting a refund and won't be connecting any accounts. Will find a safer solution from a more trusted platform.
