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.

Perfect for a Social Media Manager!

What do you like best about the product?
Love the setup of "streams." I can see all of my social media accounts listed in a row and customize each view. Plus the scheduling option and analytics are great as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish Hootsuite had the ability to automatically post to Instagram for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Good Social Media Management Dashboard for Larger Organizations

  • November 04, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
While the free version is very limited, the paid versions have some great features for role-based management. The Enterprise version is ideal for teams managing many pages / profiles and analytics features are robust. Price is a little high making it a better option for teams with larger budgets. Monitoring features are better than alternatives like Buffer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Features for free version are limited and price is high for small organizations where a more affordable option like Buffer will suffice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite makes it possible to manage a large remote team with varying levels of access as well as dozens of social media profiles from one dashboard.

A great way to free up time during the week

  • November 03, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can post to all the pages I'm responsible for and see everything in one neat platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's been glitchy recently and I have to delete the scheduled post and redo it if I need to change the picture.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company hadn't tracked analytics before, so Hootsuite gives us a great view of how we are performing.

A Hootsuite Of A Plan

  • November 03, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Hootsuite is that it allows you to have all of your social media feeds on one page. This is awesome if you have several feeds and you need to monitor them in real time. The other thing that is wonderful is that you can enter a keyword from an article or ad that you are doing and see who's talking about the same topic on social media.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is its' free version doesn't allow you to schedule multiple posts, in advance throughout a day or week. This feature is available to those who pay. When you start off in a new business everything you do is from a very tight budget.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am trying to build a fan base and posts to as many social media locations as possible, and I want to stay relevant. This software allows you to do that to a degree. If you can afford it may be best to get the paid version, it offers more options.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is an excellent tool, it helps you to monitor your posts on social media. This is great for bloggers and forum writers and monitors. You can follow what's going on even if you are a beginner or experienced user.

Great tool to stay on top of Social Media

  • November 02, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use in visually seeing scheduled posts. Scheduling posts can sometimes be a pain, with Hootsuite, scheduling becomes much, much easier. Being able to view what is schedule and for when either by the day, week, or month, for me makes it easier to mixup different types of posts and also ensure that one user is not posting over another at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be overwhelming if you do not have your streams setup and organized properly. Thankfully Hootsuite has videos to help a user get organized. Reports, having to pay for reports and analytics, and it is not cheap either. Currently it is $60 per month, in my opinion, it is a bit much for a small business.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving social media presence. Getting company name in front of more and more potential clients and building a fan base at the same time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hootsuite is a very big player in the game of Social Media Management, however, even though it has great tools to aide you in finding content to post, it will not make content for you. I know when I first began using Hootsuite and Social Media in general for business, the hardest part was content. At first I thought using a Social Media Management tool would just automatically create content, ie. through together a few keywords, etc., and boom content. You still need to find /create the right content for YOUR brand.
