Useful tool that is worth the cost for a small team.

Hootsuite makes my job easier
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite saves me hours of time. From the user-friendly, customizable analytics and convenient inbox to add ons like Amplify for advocacy, I am in Hootsuite all day everyday as a senior social media strategist. I have used other content management platforms in the past and prefer Hootsuite. They are always coming out with new features and whenever we have feedback or questions they respond quickly and always make me feel heard.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the leaderboard within Amplify was more customizable like your competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously, our monthly reporting would take about a week to put together manually. With Hootsuite analytics it only took us an hour or two. It saves us sooo much time.
Great Tool for a Large Company with Multiple Locations
What do you like best about the product?
We tried several other social media platforms before Hootsuite. The Hootsuite product, especially AI is far superior and easy to use compared to the other well-known platforms we tried. The training is endless, always keeping us up to date with the latest and greatest social media trends.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not really anything I dislike about Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite is solving the approval process we needed for our many locations. Through Hootsuite, we are now able to ensure every social post meets our brand standards before going live on our communty Facebook pages. The platform also allows us to assign "Super-Users" for team members who want to post immediately and also have proven to consistently meet brand standards. The AI tool has also promoted more creative content and reduced typos and grammatical errors. We also appreciate the intelligence of the tool that displays the best times to post, etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Hootsuite offers excellent value for money, there are a few areas where it could improve. Occasional technical glitches can be frustrating, especially when it comes to features like LinkedIn tagging and Instagram Story scheduling. Additionally, the ability to edit scheduled posts across all platforms would be a significant time-saver.

Affordable, Scalable, Essential Social Media Management Tool for Companies, Agencies, or Freelancers
What do you like best about the product?
After using one of their competitors in the social media space for more than five years, we wanted to find a solution that offered more flexibility in our contract arrangements and give us room to grow as an agency without breaking the bank. We also needed to make sure that we were not sacrificing on the essential social media management features that made it easy for us to work with our clients. The pricing at Hootsuite is transparent, and even though we needed a customized package to fit our needs, the team at Hootsuite was easily available to discuss options and quickly provide us with a proposal. Hootsuite even offered us a certain amount of platform time free upfront in order to facilitate our transition between our old service provider and their platform. This was very much appreciated.
The support of the Hootsuite team through the setup process made it very easy for our teams to integrate this platform in to our workflow and to transition our clients. The structured on boarding process with a dedicated trainer might have been a bit much for some, but for companies who have never used Hootsuite this is a way to make sure your team members are armed with as much knowledge as they need to make full use of the platform when they start.
HootSuite has all of the standard features you would need for managing the social media accounts of multiple clients as an agency or as a freelancer. It includes drafts and published posts for sharing content, workflows for approval, inboxes for message monitoring and community management, analytics, and social listening out of the box (enterprise package). The calendar is viewable in different time periods and offers a few options for exporting or sharing with clients. For agencies with multiple teams or members managing different accounts, HootSuite has a very handy dashboard set up view where each team member can configure their own personalize view of accounts they want to keep a closer eye on.

What do you dislike about the product?
We didn't expect that we would be able to get every single feature we were accustomed to with our previous provider from HootSuite at a price point that was significantly less per month while supporting the same number of clients. One of the essential features for agencies is calendar sharing for approval with clients. This feature is less "polished" with fewer options and more limitations than it was with our previous platform. Exporting rich text or interactive calendars is limited to a short time period. This may be OK for some users depending on your social media cycle but it is important to get a free trial to have your teams fully test out the workflows before committing so you can decide if this is a deal breaker or not. However, it is also important to note that the platform is working towards future improvements and that they were able to quickly provide a solution to the calendar sharing limitations so that we could continue servicing our clients as close to our usual standard as possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an agency, managing dozens of clients, across multiple countries with teams working remotely from various locations, Hootsuite provides a stable platform for monitoring social media channels in one place as well as producing and publishing social media content. At a time where there is much economic uncertainty and companies need to be able to pivot quickly to maintain profitability, Hootsuite offers affordable pricing with flexible contract arrangements that can grow with your operation as needed.

A multitasking and user-friendly platform
What do you like best about the product?
In my opinion, the strengths of Hootsuite are as follows:
- It provides a user-friendly platform that is easy and pleasant to navigate, which is important considering we using it at least 7 times à day.
- It covers a wide range of aspects related to social media management, including content scheduling, a centralized inbox, reporting tools, monitoring features, and more, making it an extremely valuable tool for a Social Media Manager. Every tool is easy to used and to integrate into our daily routine. The implementation is pretty easy as well.
- The team and customer service at Hootsuite are highly dedicated and diligent in their follow-ups. A special recognition goes to Jarred and Srinidhi for keeping us informed about new products and industry trends! Really appreciated.
- Hootsuite is really open to receive constructive feedback (which is again demostrared with this review).
In summary, I would recommend Hootsuite to anyone who is either new to social media management or does not require all the specific features offered by every individual social platforms.
