Once again.. Instagram automation tools

[Avocado]

Hey everyone! I am pretty new here. I would like to know if someone here uses some kind of Instagram automation service and if so, what is your experience with it.
My story short. I am working in CIS sector. I have been using Instagress for a while until it got shut down and surely enough I didn't receive any money back from them. After that I tried SocialKit, which was suggested by a friend of mine. I am sure nobody knows about it here, because it supports only Russian language. The service was really doing fine, but lacked customer support, it works only on PC and your computer has to be constantly turned up - weird..
I am not really looking for bots following my page just for numbers, I am looking for engagement and potential customers. Safety and organic following is my priority now. Lots of my friends also developing their small business using Instagram and one of them recently suggested relatively new tool called Ingramer. He is using it for 3 months and is very happy, I see those numbers and real comments coming to his page, but.. I am so so hesitant to use it these tools again.
So anyone has experience with those services here?

The reason your computer has to be on is because it's a desktop app that doesn't require your password I believe, which is far safer than giving access to an unapproved 3rd party app.

Maybe growbot desktop app is something you are interested in. My thinking these days is to invest only enough time on organic that it has appeal to people that view your profile and then work out a way to leverage someone who already has your target market with shoutouts, collabs and competitions (which they promote) with getting their email the end goal.

Instagram is really throttling organic reach these days like fb did some time ago. I really feel any kind of time investment into bots is just a waste.

I used lots of these bots. The best one is def Jarvee in terms of features/price. You can use it with a VPS and a proxy so that it runs the consistently. As much as the software is optimized not to get caught, if your account has more than 10K followers, I wouldn't risk it. Also, I'm very skeptical about the benefits of bots in 2019. They used to be really good in 2015-16, had fantastic results with them (closed thousands of dollars in sales), these days everyone and their brothers use them so they're largely less effective, but you need to test it yourself, it vastly depends on the niche

If I understood you correctly, your friends didn’t have any problems using ingramer and and you are also pleased with the result. So what's the problem? Jarvee and growbot give excellent performance, but Ingramer is perhaps something as good. I have always had a positive attitude towards experimentation and this situation is no exception. You can try if you are satisfied with the result. I am very interested in the results of this experiment, so keep up to date.
