Social Media Made Simple
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite was easy to use and intuitive. It made scheduling posts easy, even when using it for multiple clients. I found the layout attractive and easily customizable. I was able to manage multiple Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, WordPress, Foursquare and Google+ networks all from one place... I was able to schedule updates (including on a calendar and even upload from a spreadsheet (csv file) and collaborate as a team (delegate replies, tweets, mark as done, track messages etc). It worked as a Mobile apps (I use iOS) and allowed me to check work on the go. It also provieded customised analytics (including scheduled reports) and RSS integration (post updates from an RSS feed). Overall I also found it had a helpful and comprehensive support pages and friendly customer support team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really can't remember many downsides to this product, except possibly the price. If you're a smaller business, or a one-man-band operation this might not be for you. Although Hootsuite has a free option, and the pro option is $14.99 per month (or effectively $9.99 per month if you pay yearly).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before this program, I was setting timers on my phone and posting items early in the morning. After being trained to use it I was able to thoughtfully schedule my posts, and stagger them during the most opportune times for our clients. It was a game-changer in terms of extending our reach.

Do the trial period first and see if its something that would benefit you.

Nothing that I dislike but with they would add in integration with Google+ communities.

Automating our social posts and saving a lot of time on the posting side. Also, this has made are posts more effective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Full Social reach but also "reach for your wallet"!
What do you like best about the product?
That I can manage nearly ALL of my social media platforms (including different aspects of those platforms, e.g. Facebook profiles AND pages). I can choose to delegate replies, tweets, reply to messages to different people to better collaborate and streamline social feeds. Analytics following the platforms and can post updates from an RSS feed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functions are limited like thumbnail issues in Facebook and engagement/reach issues.
To access tools that I really needed the prices started getting out of hand. You are drawn in for free and discounted but essential analytics and reporting start to get expensive. The URL shorten-er is ridiculously priced when there are superior options out there for a fraction of this cost.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's really useful, especially if you use several social media platforms and want to track many other accounts.
Useful but limited
What do you like best about the product?
It's useful for consolidating our media outlets. Honestly, I have never personally used this product. I tried to re-do the survey without selecting Hootsuite, but it made me select it. My review is based on what I remember of my boss's experience with Hootsuite.
What do you dislike about the product?
My boss disliked that we cannot add 2 Facebook accounts to our Hootsuite accounts. My boss's boss linked his Facebook account with Hootsuite, and since then, my boss cannot add our Communications Facebook page. She is the Director of Communications but cannot use Hootsuite now because our messages will not go to our Communications Facebook.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As the administration office of a school corporation, we have used Hootsuite in the past to simplify communication efforts with our various stakeholders, such as parents, news outlets, teachers, students, staff, community members, Board members, etc.
