Great Features, but a bit Buggy
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to post directly to Facebook, Instagram and Twitter all at the same time, and even schedule posts to each platform, is an absolute godsend. I am the only person in our marketing team, so when I have time off, instead of having to schedule individual posts for each platform (or in the case of Instagram, miss posts completely) I can tee up group posts for each one and schedule them to send instantaneously.
The ability to post to Instagram from my workstation is also a benefit as it gives us the chance to edit photos in photoshop or illustrator before publishing.

What do you dislike about the product?
The New Post beta feature is excellent, but sometimes it takes several goes to publish a post - especially if it is going to more than one platform. Also, there are issues in connecting to my file folders, which makes uploading an issue.
There are also bugs with the formatting of photos for Instagram.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As above, being able to schedule group posts to all platforms means that we don't lose any social media functionality when I am away from the office. Content can be set up ahead of time and a whole week of content to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram can be set up all prior to leaving the office.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it - although buggy in places, the scheduling and automation features are excellent, and also the ability to edit photos with Creative Cloud from within Hootsuite is fantastic.
Good for Social Media Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like the layout and accessibility of the software. It's easy to use and incorporate within social media plans.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limit of profiles in the free version
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To maintain consistent posting throughout the platforms and to avoid repetition in posts.
Better than most!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the "Hootlet feature" with which you can easily share things you come across on other areas of the web -- it is analogous to the "pin it" feature on Pinterest.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are two different areas you can publish content from, and they both have a different look and feel (the functionality is different as well), which makes the whole experience feel incongruous.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have significantly increased the f volume of content we publish on social, because Hootsuite allows multiple staff members to post, and see others' scheduled posts.
Hootsuite Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like their ability to schedule posts and upload images to each post.
What do you dislike about the product?
They can't tag organizations from scheduled LinkedIn posts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I schedule social calendars for several clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're using the free version, you can only manage three accounts. Consider the paid version if needed.
Useful capabilities, difficult interface
What do you like best about the product?
The dashboard is useful, as well as the ability to schedule social postings.
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface is not intuitive, and therefore takes a while to fully understand what capabilities are.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to schedule social posts, as well as track certain metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Works well, just takes some time to understand its capabilities fully!
Couldn't do my job without it
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to schedule my social posts ahead of time allows me to work on larger projects without constant interruption.
What do you dislike about the product?
The link preview option does not always work and there are times when posts fail to send, but it is not that often.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time! I have so much more uninterrupted time now.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it! It's very user-friendly and a great way to track social engagement and schedule out posts.
Super Easy to Use!
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is very user-friendly and is adaptable to many forms of social media.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had trouble with Instagram postings at first, but their support team was helpful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It posts at times when you might be busy or asleep. I manage social media at my current place of work and it's very helpful for my job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You'll have to get used to how busy the homepage looks, but once you're past that, you're golden. I would suggest using Hootsuite to anyone in need of social media management.
2 hoots for hootsuite
What do you like best about the product?
The education resources. they provide a substantial amount of information on social marketing, social media, and marketing management. These resources have been valuable resources while i work to develop my marketing knowledge.
What do you dislike about the product?
Affordability. As an individual or a small business the cost of $14.99 per month is not always realistic cost in managing a business. Also, an additional $45-$50 per report can add up and not guarantee reliable results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have utilized hootsuite to manage several of our networks from one spot. It became a hassle to toggle from one platform to another and Hootsuite was our solution to the problem.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The mobile app and ability to collaborate as a team was key in our decision and i believe it will assist your company in reaching its goals of successful social media management
Love Hootsuite
What do you like best about the product?
You can see everything! I was able to connect various Social media accounts within my Hootsuite login and was able to align consistent messages throughout all channels. for a single platform i can see my posts (photos and links included) mentions, the feed etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be a bit confusing when it comes to determining and switching between Social media accounts. The platform logo is typically highlighted blue but with the similar colors within the logos, it makes it hard to tell which platform your posting to-so be careful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to create a flow of consistent messaging on all of the organization's social media platforms, something that was not done prior. It was easy to watch the interaction and see all of the brands mentioning us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great product. When using i would definitely have a pre-set list of social media posts you'd like to publish and as easy as 1, 2, 3 copy and paste them into the message space. Twitter feature will count your characters and all features allow link shortening and photo posting.
Great free tool for scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
Easy interface, simple and best of all its free! Shows previews of your social media posts which is really useful plus curated feeds from any keywords or other peoples accounts. Has direct access to Giphy AND stock photos too and connects to multiple social media platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
Max 30 tweets and no analytics for free users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling Twitter posts in advance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It’s a really great tool that saves time and keeps you organised.
