I love Hootsuite!

  • March 29, 2018

What do you like best about the product?
It’s a great way to monitor all my social media at once! I like how simple it is to get involved with and integrated into Hootsuite! It's a very easy software to use and it comes in handy all the time! I do a lot of real-time posting on various social media platforms and before I would have to have 5+ tabs open in order to access each social media account. Now I can just open up Hootsuite and post the same exact message, photo or video to all my social media at once! It's so convenient!
What do you dislike about the product?
The phone app could be better developed, it's very rudimentary for the most part. You can basically on post or release post from the app, but I feel like it could be more functional.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Media monitoring goes so much faster! I can watch multiple feeds as they happen in real time on one screen. I can also monitor competitor accounts and threads that are being discussed about my client.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get a paid account to unlock extra features such as being able to connect more than three social media profiles. Also, take an advantage of the bulk scheduling option! I also recommend the use of the app in conjunction with the online website. You are able to post from your phone as well as release previously scheduled post on the app.

Good free tool to get your social media management going

  • March 28, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that it provides just enough features for bloggers just starting off to manage their posting schedule. I like that it can auto schedule my posts at appropriate times rather than having to set the times each day.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the streams are not very practical for my needs. I often want to filter and exclude tweets of certain themes out of my home stream. But there is no real way to do it from within Hootsuite. In the native twitter app, I have the ability to flag tweets I'm not interested in and I find that way of training it is good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm trying to find content that relates to my blog to engage with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a new blogger and looking for a way to automate some tweets ahead of time. This is a great service to start off with for free and wet the feet.

Easy to use, easy learning curve, but has room to grow for tie-ins – especially Glassdoor

  • March 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is simple and easy to use – so you’ll see me mention “easy” about 20x in this review.

Hootsuite is much easier to use than some of its competitors (ex: Tweetdeck), and it’s simple to choose which platforms to post on. Photos and GIFs are easy to post, plus there’s a connector with YouTube that makes it easy to post videos, too. In addition, it’s easy to post multiple pictures, which is great.

Features like the stream make it simple to track social mentions.

Its free level is GREAT for trials or individual users, though there is a 30 message limit.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Glassdoor connector is NOT user friendly and does not work. One of the reasons why I chose Hootsuite was for their GD interface, but it doesn’t send through for most posts.

The UI is not the best. It would be great to have it more visual.

If you want to use other marketing software, you may be better off with a higher-end solution like Pardot, which can schedule posts PLUS help with other features: marketing emails, prospect tracking, lead conversion, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling posts is now a lot easier and intuitive with Hootsuite. Our organization benefits from being able to schedule posts with multiple photos, which some places don’t offer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hootsuite is great for high-volume social media users. Do take advantage of its free plan, and move up to a business user if your post volume increases.

Great platform for social media aggregation and analytics

  • March 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite has a really easy interface, with lots of add on features. The reporting is very flexible and the team collaboration is very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is better for Twitter than anything else. Facebook continually improves its on-site business management functionality, meaning it is tempting to log on there rather than use Hootsuite - if any team member does this, it negates the audit trail and aggregation features. It is also expensive, at the high end of the market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aggregation of all social media accounts, internal collaboration, reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it if within budget, but allocate enough resource to make the most of the apps and analytics. Have multiple people using it and assigning messages etc. You only get out what you put in.

Only useful if you buy the pro version

  • March 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It allows you to shorten and track your links in social media posts
What do you dislike about the product?
The software does not let you schedule twitter posts that include images. It seems to be some sort of glitch in the software that is only remedied when you upgrade to the (very expensive) paid version. You can schedule tweets and the images will seem to attach correctly, but they will not publish- only the text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
scheduling social media posts in advance, shortening long links into brief, tweet-friendly links
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Perhaps find a different program that has a more reasonably priced pro version or a more functional free version

Great for social media marketing

  • March 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is a very easy-to-use email marketing automation tool and it does not require any technical skills to install, integrate it with social media pages and and manage the profile. I like the fact that user can add up to 5 social media profiles and manage it through Hootsuite for free. Another think I like about Hootsuite software is an accurate reporting and analytics and quick customer support team
What do you dislike about the product?
So many features could be overwhelming first, but once the user gets used to all of the features become very easy-to-operate with. Another thing is that once you exceed 5 social media pages the price is $19 per month and you have to pay annually. The most upsetting fact is that when you need more than 1 user, it is considered as a team plan and costs $100 a month which is way too much for a social media automation tool like Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Hootsuite as a social media marketing automation solution to automate social media campaigns and to schedule, edit, and post social media posts. We also use Hootsuite's reporting and analytics features for the insights and tips to improve our company's social media content strategy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Hootsuite to content marketers, social media marketers, community managers, digital marketing professionals and others who want to automate their social media campaigns and social media content marketing. The tool works good and safes your time.
