Hootsuite is a great manager of multiple social media accounts!
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite allows me to schedule posts for the future and allows me to keep on top of my postings
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the user interface can be a bit bulky and cumbersome to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling future posts
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try! If you have never used a social media content tool like this you will find Hootsuite to be extremely helpful!
Good features for streamlining social media scheduling process
What do you like best about the product?
We typically use Hootsuite for scheduling (not moderating) and like it well. We use the bulk composer and author RSS feed posting features. Also like the ability to schedule Instagram posts from desktop.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're limited to 50 social networks and 10 users with the pro version, which is not enough, but it's MUCH MUCH more expensive to upgrade beyond this level (last time we looked into it, that is). Plus, we're limited to 350 scheduled posts which is about 2 weeks worth across all our social networks...we'd like the ability to schedule farther out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite definitely helps to streamline our process and to see what team members do what.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go with the Pro version.
Easy viewing platform

I like that I can manage all of my tweets in one place, while drafting the tweets I would like to use in the future. It's an easy system to use and I like that I can have other people login and review my work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that sometimes the platform crashes. It makes it difficult to work with sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to manage all of my tweets in one place. It's nice to have a system in place that your whole team can use. I have realized that this is the easiest way to draft tweets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend adding more analytical features to the platform.

Great tool - Invest in the Premium Account
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy Hootsuite makes managing multiple social media accounts. The desktop dashboard is very intuitive and the scheduling features are a huge help. You can also customize the "streams" for each social account and it creates a visual way to monitor and respond to user interactions. The built-in link shortener is a lifesaver. I know many friends who've complained about the Hootsuite mobile app, but I actually like it and find it very easy to use (I have the Android version). The free version of Hootsuite only let's you link 4-5 social media accounts, so if you're a serious social media manager and you manage a lot of accounts, it is 100% worth it to invest in a premium, paid account to keep everything in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many complaints about the desktop/web version of the program. That's definitely my preferred mode of using the platform. If you schedule Instagram posts through Hootsuite, you MUST have the mobile app. When a post is scheduled, a notification will pop up on your mobile and you have to manually push the post through the Instagram app. Depending on how time sensitive the post is, if you're not on top of that notification, it could sit there for awhile waiting for you to post it. I'm the kind of person who likes to have a little more separation between my work and personal social content (which is admittedly hard when you manage multiple channels and then have your own), so sometimes I'd get frustrated having to push Instagram posts through when I was "off the clock," but it's not a difficult process by any means. Just minority irritating if I forget to publish the post.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The organization I worked for produced original content and Hootsuite was really helpful for making sure the content was posted during optimal web traffic times, coinciding with important holidays or current events, etc. It made my job, and my team's work flow, a lot easier to manage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to do your research on social media management software before diving in. If you have 5+ accounts you manage, it's worth it to invest in a premium account. It think Hoostuite makes it easy to navigate a lot of accounts in one place. If you only manage 1-3 accounts, it's still a solid product, but make sure it's what you need in a management software. I've used TweetDeck and a couple of other lesser known programs, and Hootsuite feel most intuitive for what my work and personal social media needs are.
Save Time and Stay Organized
What do you like best about the product?
A great tool to quickly schedule and manage social media posts while staying organized. Convenient features and generally easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times some options may be a bit unclear or confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time required to send out messages across multiple platforms. Multiple messages can be scheduled, and messages can be posted across all linked social media accounts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pay close attention when scheduling times for posts to make sure they are correct.
