Hootsuite is SWEET

What do you dislike about the product?
Having to pay for, but it really isn't expensive. I am just cheap!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring lots of mentions and lots of conversations all a once! It has made it super easy to do!
A must use tool in social media management
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite allows me to be a lot more efficient in our social media marketing. I am able to bulk upload several weeks worth of social media posts at once instead of one at a time. I am also able to run multiple reports to compare our social media metrics from month to month. Hootsuite also offers webinars and blogs so I am able to stay on top of current and new trends.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I am no longer able to customize link previews on Facebook posts. Another dislike is when bulk uploading social media posts, they won't allow you to have duplicates posts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Efficiency is the biggest business problem that I am solving with Hootsuite. I am able to go to one website and maintain all of our social media platforms.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As social media continues to grow it is a MUST!

Hootsuite makes social media automation easier!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the hands-off idea of automating social media posts and the analytics that are provided.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't connect all my social media, such as youtube.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It automates your social media postings so that they go out on a schedule, so you don't have to manually post at certain times. This helps when a post needs to go out outside of business hours or to alleviate the possibility of forgetting to post. It also provides analytics to compare month to month.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Connect all your social media streams as soon as possible to make use of the analytics. It only tracks when they're connected.
Hootsuite is a solid platform for social media management.
What do you like best about the product?
The system is very user-friendly We got our team using the system within minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have dislikes - the only small nuance is that you have to do 2 steps to post on Instagram (confirm post).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We centralize our social media among several administrators.
Great for scheduling content!

Social Media Management in one place
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to manage social media in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is not the most user friendly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting pertinent information out on time to fans
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a beautiful platform for free that allows users with little time to submit their social media postings in one place. It's especially useful if you have many events; you can take one day a month and schedule all promotional materials in advance for when you need them to go live.
Excellent social media management & monitoring tool
What do you like best about the product?
Probably the Keyword stream feature -- that you can create a stream based on a keyword you always want to follow. This way you stay current with what's going on around a topic and can bring relevant content quickly to your followers. I also love that I can have multiple streams open (e.g., home, new followers, sent messages, etc.) for one or more Twitter accounts or Facebook pages. On different projects, some of which required me to manage multiple social media handles, this feature came in very handy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I always felt that the Automatic scheduler could be better. When scheduling multiple messages in the past, the Automatic Scheduling feature would sometimes schedule them on days far out from the current day, and that's not what I was looking for -- was hoping more for a current-day optimizer. Also, the reports could have been more detailed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Depending on the project, Hootsuite helped me solve different problems. On one of them, it made managing multiple handles efficient and streamlined. On another project, it made connecting with others in a timely way much easier. Building an audience around a specific topic and discovering relevant content that audience cares about was also something easily done with Hootsuite. Also, watching specifically what new followers were posting about was something valuable that was a possibility through Hootsuite.
Convenient Social Media Scheduler
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite works for multiple social media platforms, including Facebook and Twitter. It also collects good metrics, although some of them you have to pay for rather than just using the free option.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all of the analytic reports are available for free. Also, while the platform is compatible with Instagram at the time I was using it, Hootsuite wouldn't post to Insta, but would sent you a notification when you had scheduled one and you would have to still manually post to Instagram.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite makes it easy to schedule posts on Facebook and Twitter. Plus, the analytics are good. You do have to use their shortener rather than your own, but I' not sure if you can use your own preferred short links for tracking.
