I found Hootsuite to be very helpful.

  • November 15, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite made my life a lot easier and I would recommend it to anyone. Allowing me to schedule out all of my Tweets and Facebook posts allowed me to be more efficient at work. I really enjoyed sitting down once a week and taking care of all of the companies social media posts all at once. After that all I needed to worry about was responding to people.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have much to say here. Hootsuite did exactly what I wanted and then some. I found it a little tough to figure out at the start, but I caught on pretty quickly. The only thing I wish that would add it some form of automation. Sometimes I just want to be a presence on social media and don't necessary need add much value. I'm sure it's something they've considered and avoided due to people spamming, but it would be nice if there was a small form of automation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Somedays I would completely forget to submit anything to social media. It allowed me to have a much more consistent presence in the social media world. It came with a lot more benefits than I was expecting. I really enjoyed that ability to add gifs to my posts. I also thought it was great that they had a way to shrink links so I would have more characters to use for Twitter.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Defiantly give it a try and stick with it because when you get it all figured out Hootsuite is a very helpful tool.

Shout out to Hootsuite

  • November 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite gives you a clean and easy to navigate dashboard for all of your social media streams. In the early days, this was pretty limited, but it has come a long way. There are also great management tools where you can have other users post content for you to approve and schedule
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve. Adding streams, especially from some of their less-supported platforms, can be tricky. The interface for the scheduler looks nice, but can be clunky at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to compile multiple social media posts all at once and then scheduling them out. It is also a great way to keep an eye on trends and keywords.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you set up your teams early-on if you are using their pro tools. Also, make sure that you have calendar view on to make sure you are not double posting.

A must-have tool for Social Media management

  • November 10, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is super easy to use and very intuitive. I think they have a pretty good freemium version for startups and SMEs. I have used it for personal projects too.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their posting on Instagram feature does not work really well. I've programmed some photos and never showed up. For Instagram I always end up posting manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content distribution. It's very easy to manage the content calendar with Hootsuite so that we can plan what content will be distributed through which platform. Scheduled content is by far the best solution Hootsuite is offering right now in the company I work for.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hootsuite is a very good start thanks to their free version. It doesn't lack for any core functionality: comprehensive built-in listening, publishing features and vast array of integrations.

Confusing tool

  • November 09, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked the content suggestions for twitter, and that's about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
VERY confusing interface, unintuitive, very old fashioned website with a lot of banners and buttons. I haven't used it in a while just because I found better options (buffer!). Prices are high and there is no justification for them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Couldn't find the benefits so stopped using Hootsuite all together. I tried their trial of the premium plan and couldn't understand why I need it when there are such great free/cheaper tools out there. Hootsuite is like those people that still use Windows XP and don't want to upgrade because "it's working so why upgrading?".
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are other tools out there that will do what Hootsuite does better and cheaper. Start with Buffer to schedule posts and then continue from there.
