Good but sometimes glitchy when posting

  • June 06, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the streams, and having everything in one place. I like to be able to see mentions and retweets easily. I like being able to schedule and hold drafts to share across team members. I like getting the email update to see top tweets and trends. I like the training offered as well. VERY helpful!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when posting, it gets glitchy- takes a while to load mentions or is difficult to go back and edit as I am typing. I have to clear the tweet instead. Also wish that I could click on the mentions as I am typing to ensure I have the right person.

I also dislike having to log into Instagram to post, but I think that is IG's issue, not Hootesuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I solve the issue of needing to schedule tweets, measure success, track which tweets do well. I like that my teammates and I can all see what is being scheduled so as not to overlap- and so I can edit tweets when my coworkers are drafting tweets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to get buy in from other coworkers and bosses who are posting on brand's social. Some of the features are only helpful if the team is using them.

Hootsuite Review

  • June 06, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use method of pre-scheduling posts to multiple social media platforms. Allows one to plan out social media campaigns and coordinate across all platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally Hootsuite would not properly link with all the platforms we intended to use and posts were sometimes delayed!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes the process for managing our platforms seamless and efficient. Previously, we would have to log in to each platform every time we wanted to post and now we just log in once to Hootsuite and schedule our posts.

A great way to keep social media scheduled in advance

  • June 01, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can schedule social media posts to multiple platforms, such as instagram, facebook, and twitter months in advance. It is also useful to see what fans are posting on your pages so you can get an idea of how people feel about your brand. I make different tabs to monitor different things, such as comments on my photos, likes, and a feed with people who have mentioned my company name in a hash tag. These tabs allow you to stay very organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface on the phone app can be a little bit buggy sometimes. For example, sometimes the notification doesn't pop up on my phone to remind me that I scheduled the Instagram post. The phone app is basically only for Instagram, so all the other scheduled posts are fine with posting themselves as scheduled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am keeping myself more organized by using Hootsuite to schedule social media posts in advance. Hootsuite has helped me to save a LOT of time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool for social media post planning in advance and it is also helpful for keeping up with what people are posting to your social media pages. You can create a variety of tabs to monitor different areas, such as who liked your photos, who commented on your photos, who recently liked or disliked your page, and there are a large variety of analytics reports available too.

Hootsuite is great

What do you like best about the product?
Scheduling, analytics, and the educational opportunities are the major benefits for me. I'm the only communications staff in the department and it makes my life a lot easier. Our board loves the reporting capabilities, which we never used before.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like the analytics to be more intuitive and easier to communicate to staff outside of the communications department.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a one person communications department for a rapidly growing nonprofit. Hootsuite allows me to quickly and easily manage our social strategy.

The biggest feature that stands out to me is the ability to mass upload over multiple sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only part that I don't like is a lack of mobile app to change or edit all pages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing myself more time to create and and interact with my customers is priceless and Hootesuite allows me to do that.

Great tool to save time posting on social media

  • May 16, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that I can schedule my posts in advance
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they had a setting where you could post to a neighborhood social media platform like NextDoor which we use a lot in the city.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are I can manage several pages at once and don't worry about dropping the ball.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend this product because it allows you to step away from work as a social media manager and feel like you still aren't missing a post.
