Great for peoples who use more than one social media platform
What do you like best about the product?
I saved time and energy letting hootsuit post for me. I write up the post and tell them when to post, and it posts to more than just one account. I can have it post all of the social media platform at the same time or at at random times. This meant a more sleep too. No more am posting when I should be a keeping I can have both now...
What do you dislike about the product?
In the beginning it's a bit overwhelming, too many options, free trial left me feeling rushed
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Posting things quickly like I needed it to, put all my information in one place sdo it was easy to see what works and what doesn't.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It takes time to get started, don't rush!
Great Social Media Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy having one place to monitor and manage social media for three different accounts for my organization. I also appreciate the analytics aspect so I didn't have to configure those myself.
What do you dislike about the product?
The app did not work well for me. I drafted posts to be prepared to post live at events and the app crashed multiple times, so I had to go to each social media platform and post individually. The problems could have been due to my older model iPhone though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite is a great social media management tool. It makes managing, monitoring, and analyzing social media accounts a lot easier and more efficient.
Hootsuite is the ultimate manager.
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite allows you to manage several channels, feeds, social pages and more. You can schedule, post, and edit seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
You cannot post to Instagram in advance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brand awareness and reach campaigns.
A very good piece of software for social media posting, listening and scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing is the new feature of being able to post direct to instagram. This means that I can now easily post to three channels that I use mostly from one piece of software rather than two.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting can be quite expensive and there is a bit of a jump in the pricing between the different offerings
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saving time - one post goes to three platforms. Scheduling posts - not having to be at the computer to post at a preferred time. Saving Drafts to use as evergreen content or modify per platform. Being able to listen in socially on what people are talking about my customers products
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend taking the free trial and getting as much out of the amazing support, videos and tutorials as possible before you decide to buy. This will leave you completely informed on what the product can do and you won't go away assuming it does something it doesn't. I have recently switched back to using Hootsuite from MeetEdgar - although this is also software that I love, it did not provide the level of support for Instagram that Hootsuite now offers, not does it allow me to be trained and become certified at hootsuite academy which is a real bonus for employees and professionals alike.
Hootsuite is great for social monitoring.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to organize lists side-by-side.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting can be a challenge and get convoluted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Social listening.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great place to start for social media listening and management.
Effective but Overwhelming
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Hootsuite is that you can schedule postings in advance - up to 30 for the free version (across all platforms), but more if you pay for premium. This means that if you're in charge of social media for work you can do an entire week's worth in one day, or even take care of it in advance of being out of the office.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find Hootsuite's platform overwhelming. I don't like the amount of information displayed on the dashboard and have had to reorganize several times to get it to a functional layout. It could be helpful if you never access your social media accounts through the actual accounts (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) but if you regularly check those specific platforms, Hootsuite is redundant. I also don't like how the integration with Instagram works. It requires extra steps that limit the available convenience of scheduled postings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I only work part-time for my organization and am responsible for our social media even when I'm on vacation. So I love that I can schedule a week's worth of social media posts in advance, then not worry about my job while I'm out of the office.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have many social media channels Hootsuite is great because it can limit your need to log in to each specific channel regularly. However, if you only use one or two, it may be redundant and unnecessary - especially with Facebook's scheduling feature.
a little disorganized
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite does a great job of allowing us to organize all our social media accounts to post easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is a little disorganized - looks cluttered. Also can't schedule posts for Instagram, you have to manually hit the button to post
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workload is lighter because I don't have to go into each outlet to post the same post.
Awesome tool for scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
I have used HootSuite for postponed posting feature. I used it for Instagram accounts and it was super easy and almost never glitches. I also read their blog to expand my knowledge in Social media and keep up with the industry
What do you dislike about the product?
I have experienced a few glithes on the way but that's all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use postponed posting feature so all my Instagram posts are up to date and air automatically every day at the same time
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep up with the blog!
Gets the job done
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite isn't a fancy platform in terms of look and feel - but if you are scheduling posts for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram (and even Pinterest with an add-on from Tailwind) it's all possible via the same platform. If you're a freelancer or agency, you can run multiple brands and accounts all from the same log-in and viewing screen.
Now includes Pinterest!
Now includes Pinterest!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not very user-friendly - and the interface isn't much to look at. I always get the feeling there are more metrics and options available, but they're not easy to locate. The reporting feature is bulky. The mobile option is ok, but it's most valuable when used on a desktop computer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For a team, multiple users can review, edit and approve posts for one brand of multiple brands. It solves the biggest issue: time management. Now I can spend less time scheduling posts for multiple platforms and instead view it all in one place. I LOVE the Hootlet feature available in Chrome.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Now that you can schedule Instagram posts, Hootsuite has become even more valuable to social media managers and employees that work on brand engagement. There are lots of options if you work with a large team for creating content. Download the Hootlet feature in Chrome for easy sharing of appropriate web articles.
Makes scheduling posts incredibly efficient
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of setup and adding new streams to the dashboard
What do you dislike about the product?
When posting to Facebook/Twitter and adding a photo it sometimes adds the photo as a link instead of as an image
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps with managing time and making sure social media posts are consistent.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely take advantage of using the multiple streams available to you. It makes responding to Facebook inquiries and tracking your engagement so much easier than trying to track all of these things through each social media application.
