I was introduced to Hootsuite through Stepup.one, and I was able to learn alot and master the tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like the publisher, calendar, and the analytics.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only down sides is when using a the mobile version. When composing a post it doesn't give you the enough sapce to place a link preview
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing my personal and clients accounts at the time in Hootsuite. The feature to measure results.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a tool to solve your problems when you're new to social marketing and you don't know where to start
Keeps me organized!
What do you like best about the product?
I love creating and posting all within one platform to all the socials that I most frequently use. I use Canva primarily to make my content. Compared to other software, Hootsuite is easy to use and I love the account analytic emails I receive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that I was able to download the content I create using Canva within the Hootsuite software so that I could use the same content on my website/google my business, as currently I cannot post directly to those accounts from Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite helps to keep me organized! Before I started using Hootsuite, it was difficult for me to remember what I had posted and sometimes if I had even posted at all! Having all that information in one place increases my efficiencies and helps me stay on track.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Remember that Hootsuite is limited to where it posts. If you have a modest budget for social media marketing, you might want to explore what Hootsuite offers compared to other companies or do it manually yourself. My company uses TikTok and Google my Business, which are not currently "postable" options on Hootsuite. Thus, we make the content we can on Canva linked to Hootsuite, post it to the linked accounts, and then have to pop into Google and TikTok to do separate posting there. If your company uses TikTok and Google as primary marketing means, Hootsuite might not be suitable for you. If your company uses Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram as primary marketing means, and you have the budget to get Canva Pro and Hootsuite, I truly believe you will be happy with Hootsuite as a bulk posting software.
Social Media Scheduling Platform plus so much more
What do you like best about the product?
This tool not only lets me schedule social media posts on multiple platforms for different organizations, but it also allows me to track and advertise on them. This is an all-in-one, easy to use online tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main thing that I do not like about Hootsuite is how they post to Instagram when you have several pictures. I have had issues with my reception and trying to self-publish with the Hootsuite reminder and set up can be difficult when I am working in remote areas. I hope this is one area that they will continue to improve upon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we are focusing on solving right now are getting the community to know more about us and Hootsuite has been a great tool for that. We have realized that we can utilize this tool to reach the maximum audience engagement without having to do a ton of extra work.
Great tool for managing your social media!
What do you like best about the product?
When our company first introduced Hootsuite, I was a little skeptical. I had a system for managing all of our social media platforms and I thought I was all dialed in. Within the first day of using the program, I could see immediately how much of my time was going to be freed up by using the tools that Hootsuite provided. We have been using it for about a year and we absolutely cannot live without it. Other programs are similar but they just don't offer all of the time-saving convenience that we have come to enjoy!
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like better interaction with YouTube. Otherwise, this is great for everything else.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a time-saving tool that also makes it easier to provide consistency through all platforms. Multiple users have access and we can stay on top of our social media with ease.
Love it! I would recommend, but there are limitations.
What do you like best about the product?
The support is great! Also, the tools keep getting nice updates. I feel you can use almost any social media platform with Hootsuite and everyone can understand the basics after a quick 15--minute tutorial.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform has been around for years. I believe I started using this tool for social media about 7 years ago. Back then, you could basically use the free version in its entirely without a miss of the beat Now, it has gotten a little pricier and the free version is somewhat useless for social media professionals that want to schedule out more content than just 5 posts at a time. Also, I do not like scheduling video content ahead of time on Hootsuite. It feels very limited and you might as well wait to post it live. It disconnects profiles all of the time as well due to security. It can be frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think that I would definitely like to get more with the pro version. It's 10 social media accounts, but I have many clients. The social media accounts might be a total of 5 for one client so basically I need to upgrade to enterprise, but it's too costly so I use alternatives. The benefits are super! I think it's great for approving content and mapping out your week. I save a lot of content in draft just to keep it on my radar which is awesome.
Hootsuite is Great!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of adding social media sites and also posting and scheduling posts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using the platform for several years now and I can honestly say there is nothing I dislike about the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem I am solving is time management. This platform allows me to manage all of my social media accounts for all of my clients with ease. I can post instantly or schedule posts for the future.
Hootsuite amplified our social media efforts by 10X!
What do you like best about the product?
The intuitive dashboards with an easy learnint curve, plus the fact that it allows us to batch content for scheduled distribution
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a deal breaker - however their Social Listening feature can be quite expensive vs. other options in the market. Maybe theirs is superior - we haven't tried it yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As we are a small team, Hootsuite does the work of 10 people sometimes for us in terms of social media marketing.
Amazing planning tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that you can plan ahead for social media posts, and can manage the time of deployment. No more logging in at certain times to post - Hootsuite helps you plan it all ahead of time and will auto deploy for you when the time is right!
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing to dislike. It's pretty straightforward, super user friendly, and simple to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No more logging in at peak times to get your posts out there for maximum engagement. Saves SO much time!
Multiple Platform Integration Makes Social Posting a Breeze
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to send our social media posts to ALL of our social accounts with the touch of a button. Scheduling weeks in advance is so helpful for our business as we get too busy to do daily social media upkeep.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hootsuite is a bit pricey if you're a smaller company like us. It would be nice to have more package options in pricing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can easily schedule a few days a month to create all of our upcoming social media content and push it all to a single platform where the posting is automated for us. Saves us so much time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is worth it as long as you're taking advantage of ALL of the different platforms you can connect. Make it work for you!
Easy, user-friendly analytics and social media posting tool
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Hootsuite is scheduling posts out in advance. Another great part about this website tool is that you can see all your social channels lined up next to one another for comparisons on how they are performing on each platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I really dislike about this website is that it's not as analytic heavy. So, for those looking to have an all in one site to use for scheduling posts, and analytics this may not be the best option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite allows you to figure which social channel performs the best with the use of analytics, the scheduler tool, and the fact that you can create columns and tabs that show reposts, likes, shares etc.
