It is a free tool offered by Facebook that provides you with a number of useful tools to increase your online visibility. The platform has been around for some time under the name Business Manager, but now it offers a number of additional functions that are even more efficient.Â
What is Meta business Suite: differences with Business Manager
In short, Meta Business Suite and Meta Business Manager were created to enable better management of social media integrated into Meta, mainly Instagram and Facebook.Â
The tools are quite similar to each other, but have some key differences.Â

From Business Manager, you can also assign roles, request access to certain accounts and collaborate with other team members. In addition, you can launch Facebook Ads and Instagram Ads in order to increase your social presence.
