Streamline Your Time
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can plan all my posts for the week for multiple clients which frees up my time to tackle other projects. Because I can schedule my posts, I've been able to more easily manage my clients that are international because I can schedule posts for different time zones instead of having to set up alarms for myself to wake up and post things manually.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I can't automate the Instagram posts. They've been making improvements over time, but using the phone app, you still have to manually post the image and content.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to post more regularly and track what time of day gets the most views. There is also a great feature in Hootsuite that allows you to let Hootsuite determine when is the best time to make posts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider how many platforms you plan on using for Hootsuite. Currently, you can post on up to three platforms for free. If you want to use more, you'll have to pay, but it's worth it!
Hootsuite is a MUST for social media managers!
What do you like best about the product?
I liked that I was able to see what people were saying about our brand and respond and interact with their posts from one place. The tool became even better when they allowed pictures to be posted without the photo link in the post. My favorite thing about Hootsuite was its ability to create a geofilter for tags. Our brand used a hashtag that other companies around the world used, so I easily set up a geofilter to only show results for the hashtag in our local region. This made it very useful for social media monitoring and public relations purposes. I also liked that it had useful tools for collaborators. I managed social media interns, and was able to give them the ability to draft and schedule posts with an added review step so I could approve everything that was going out.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our brand used a LinkedIn university page rather than a company page, and I didn't like that we weren't able to connect Hootsuite to our LinkedIn university page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's hard to keep track of what people are saying about your brand online, but Hootsuite allows you to do it all in one place. I've used other tools such as Buffer and Facebook's own scheduling platform, but Hootsuite was more convenient and more comprehensive. The customer team was also very responsive and interested in helping us get what we needed out of the platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hootsuite is the number one tool I recommend for social media management, and its scheduling, collaboration functions, and analytics tools make it one of the best on the market.
Hootsuite is a great Marketing Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature of Hootsuite is the ability to prepare draft communications and schedule months in advance. Time is always of the essence, and Hootsuite helped me develop tweets and Facebook posts effortlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
One issue I encounter with Hootsuite is the inability to schedule one post for multiple days. This may not be an issue for users using the premium version, but working as a volunteer at a small literary magazine, we can't always afford the opportunity to splurge on tools, so we make do with what we have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One primary solution with Hootsuite is that we are able to connect with our readers on a large scale, and plan posts around certain times of the day to reach more viewers.
Hootsuite for great Social Media Content Planning
What do you like best about the product?
The calendar scheduling function. I am a visual person, seeing my planed posts on a calendar is fantastic.
What do you dislike about the product?
The calendar scheduling function is only available for paid subscribers. Also, they are making changes to that you can no longer choose the featured photo when pushing a URL link to Facebook. The first indexed image is often awful, and will not get me the response I desire!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Social media scheduling. The benefits are seeing better response/reach due to being able to use analytics in posting at specific times/dates.
Get ahead of the Social Media Game!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can plan out my social media posts for the week and schedule them ahead of time. I also like that I can send the same post to many different social platforms at once!
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface can be a little confusing at first. Not a large learning curve, though!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite allows me to focus once during the week on social media. You can "set it & forget it" for the most part.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it! If you work for a non-profit, there is discounted pricing.
Simplicity
What do you like best about the product?
I love using Hootsuite to manage multiple social media platforms in one location. I can access my account on the computer or on my smartphone, so I can check statuses and make updates anywhere and anytime. It's also easy to share workload with coworkers, if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only problem I've ever had with Hootsuite is that Twitter photos show up as links rather than an actual photo when posted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite allows me to schedule and centralize social media management, which saves me a lot of time and effort on a daily basis. It also allows me to work with other team members from a centralized hub. I regularly monitor various news feeds and accounts to keep up with the industry, and I can do that all from one application.
The only social media management software I use
What do you like best about the product?
I mainly use Hootsuite to schedule posts for Twitter and Instagram. It is very easy to use and offers nice features like link shortening, drop and drop, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
The actual web design could use a refresher, looks a little bit old. The integration with Facebook pages isn't ideal. I still just schedule Facebook posts right on Facebook, not through Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to schedule posts to go out on a certain day at a certain time. Has made it much easier to manage social media on a daily basis.
