Helpful for posting to Facebook and Twitter, not as much with other social media platforms.
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the feature to schedule posts for Facebook ahead of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the inability to utilize Instagram well or the ability to tag people on the Facebook posts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to schedule ahead of time for holidays, time off school, and regulate how many times we are posting for different events.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't use for instagram
Perfect for automating social media posts
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to schedule our social media posts with a few clicks. The post previews are useful for planning and arranging subsequent posts. The scheduler is very useful in tracking your progress and post spread.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their new dashboard is a bit slow and sluggish, even though it looks better and easier to use. Analytics tools are limited in features and require you to upgrade to higher packages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We automate our social media reach through this tool. We create content at a steady pace, and can spread out our publishing times easily to maximize reach. Analytics tools are nice to have, but not packed with too many features. We use other tools for this job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's one of the best tools for the job, because it's very easy to use. It's also nice to have most of your social media tools in one place. However, if you're looking for more features, you might want to look elsewhere.
Hootsuite is very helpful but still has some areas to be improved
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the fact that it's a one-stop shop for my media team to post, see a calendar of scheduled posts, and post to multiple sites at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the fact that videos won't post to Instagram without a secondary click through the mobile app. I also don't like the fact that many times I will post one square piece for instagram, twitter, and facebook, only to have twitter shut me down because dimensions don't fit by 40 pixels or something. The other annoying thing is the character allowance. It's not Hootsuite's fault, but it'd be nice if I could do one scheduled post, then have an option within that scheduling to make a second version just for another site, rather than doing multiple posts for the same thing just to shorten my text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to schedule out multiple social media pieces at once, saving time and thought throughout the week.
Hootsuite Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can schedule tweets in advance and tag (@) Twitter accounts too!
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I've had trouble connecting my Instagram account for some reason so I haven't been able to schedule Instagram posts, and that there are no emojis available for scheduled tweets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since I don't want to have to focus on posting on social media 5 days a week, it's great to be able to schedule posts and not have to think about social media the rest of the week at work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Hootsuite to those users focusing on Twitter and wanting to schedule posts in advance. It has been very helpful in taking the day to day burden of posting on social media away.
Hootsuite Experience
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to use Hootsuite with various social media platforms. I use Hootsuite for Facebook, Twitter, Google, and Instagram. One tool for all my platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
It limits me to a certain number of profiles. I do work for multiple clients and I am unable to have all my clients under one account. Also, interfacing with Instagram could use some work, basically it just reminds me that I have a post scheduled rather than actually posting it for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have multiple clients that I conduct social media accounts for and without Hootsuite, it would be almost impossible to manage all the accounts.
Works well, difficult for many accounts sometimes.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how you can manage many accounts at once, including multiple on the same platform. It's a pain to log in and out all the time. The analytics features are very helpful, and scheduling posts is key to my job.
What do you dislike about the product?
Instagram is a pain on Hootsuite. I wish we could schedule posts with multiple photos or stories, it's something I do a lot that isn't made easier by the account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Social Media account management is made easier, analytics are clear and helpful
A Must-Have For Any Business Looking To Streamline Their Social Media Marketing Efforts!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Hootsuite pays attention to the changing Social Media climate, adding small details like a link shortener and the ability to save content for reuse at a later time. These seemingly small functionalities are timesavers and make a difference in the user experience!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I get posting errors due to my link preview failing to upload. This is annoying at worst but Hootsuite is definitely making improvements in the interface department! Hopefully, they will iron out this issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite is helps with time efficiency by allowing me to post content weeks in advance instead of having to manually post on social media platforms. This is a true MUST HAVE product for anyone who uses social media for business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get Hootsuite if you want to simplify your marketing and advertising process tremendously!
Hoot Hoot
What do you like best about the product?
It is certainly a powerful tool providing numerous streams to follow by hashtag or followers across multiple social networks. Scheduling and posting directly to Instagram is a huge plus in avoiding juggling content from the desktop to the phone. I tend to use it more for Twitter than other networks.
What do you dislike about the product?
While it can be more time-consuming and tedious, I prefer posting/scheduling directly in the native social media accounts as they tend to have much more robust options while posting. For example, the numerous add-ons to a post in Facebook. I also find it frustrating that only after a cross channel post is clicked to send or schedule, does a warning appear if the features are duplicatable across networks. Being unable to post multiple photos to Instagram or Facebook is also detrimental to work flow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling in bulk social media posts.
Hootsuite is useful for managing social media and basic analytics.
What do you like best about the product?
I like being able to schedule posts ahead of time, even months in advance. I also like being able to see the basic analytics for all of our social accounts. I also like that I can have multiple accounts set up with Hootsuite, and that I can track hashtags being used to compare our posts to others in the industry.
What do you dislike about the product?
The publisher function can sometimes be frustrating, and I don't like that you can no longer directly publish posts to Instagram.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite certainly helps me manage my company's social media accounts, and we have seen an increase in our account following as a result.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a good basic software for scheduling, managing, and tracking your social accounts.
Works exactly how I need it to
What do you like best about the product?
I have the free version of this software, so I can only post to three different social media networks. This works for me, however, as that's all I really need to post to for my job. It allows me to post in advance and keep up to date with social media postings from one consolidated site.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike-- it is user friendly and makes my life easier at work. I do have the free version, however, so if I ever wanted to post to more than three places at a time, I would not be able to. Besides that, it does everything I need it to do!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefit of posting regularly without having to take time out to post to three individual places is wonderful-- it saves time, energy and hassle. Also, being able to schedule posts ahead of time is something I never knew I needed, but now I use it all the time. If I know I'm going to be extra busy or out of the office, I can schedule my posts to go out when I want them to. It's like having a little personal assistant to just click that "send" button for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to post to more than three social networks, consider upgrading to premium. I used the trial for a week and it made life easier when I needed to post to more places.
