Excellent Resource for Managing Multiple Social Media Accounts
What do you like best about the product?
I manage 10 Facebook pages. Priorto using Hoot Suite, posting involved a tedious cutting and pasting process. Now I can draft, add media, links to my website and schedule posts for all pages in one place. This product has saved me so much time!!

I wish the analytics were a little more in depth but I think they will be more useful as we build a history.

We are managing multiple social media accounts-realizing huge time efficiencies and allowing us to spend more time on optimizing content.
Great for Multiple Locations and Social Networks
What do you like best about the product?
We have have a bunch of locations. Hootsuite lets me post to multiple locations on multiple social networks at once to save a bunch of time and streamline the process. I like to schedule everything ahead of time and get it all done early so I don't have to worry about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Took me a while to figure out the features but that ok. It's a limited product but it's great for its niche.

Trying to streamline social media. The benefits is saving time and money. I don't have to post one by one, I can save time with hootsuite
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it, it's free to try and if you only have one location it's completely free.
Convenient but not always a good option
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use - it's intuitive and pretty user friendly. Lots of channels - It has connections to all the social channels we use. Convenience - Scheduling posts all from one platform can be a time saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hootsuite does what it's supposed to do, however I don't like the way many scheduled posts appear. I think they look better when posted from the original social channel. I also wish there was better connectivity between Hootsuite and Insta.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
None
Easy to use and schedule posts on various social media platforms
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to create different streams to "listen" for keywords and follow mentions of your organization from others. Easy to schedule posts ahead of time and customize for different social media accounts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Visually, it can be overwhelming with all the various streams you can create. Also, it can be more cumbersome to use if you have multiple streams and other accounts that you're following.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great for raising visibility of the organization by creating and sharing content on social media.
Helpful Hootesuite!
What do you like best about the product?
Hootesuite is extremely easy to use and implement! We love that we can do most of our social media management from one place and all of us can access it easily. Since we have several users not all in the same office, ease of access is very important to us.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is really nothing to dislike with Hootesuite! It is so user friendly and simple that we have yet to find something that doesn't work for our structure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This helps us manage multiple social media platforms all in one place instead of having to go to multiple sites. It is a great time saver that helps us have more time to allot elsewhere.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for software to help you manage multiple social media platforms, Hootesuite is a great option! We have been thrilled with it's ease of use and formatting.
Hootsuite;A huge time saver
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can schedule posts weeks or months out. And with the Hootsuite app, I can post on the go.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I find challenging is the vast amount of information to learn when using Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find that I have more time to dedicate to other tasks. I dedicate a day to do my social media posts and then move on to other things.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it! You will save yourself mounds of time!
Hootsuite for Higher Ed
What do you like best about the product?

Difficult to find and navigate sometimes. I wish it was easier to integrate and post/manage all platforms into this management tool.

Getting digital content to alumni and students and faculty.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can be difficult to integrate all of your platforms into this product, but I find that it's an easy management tool for Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Using for Years and Still Loving It
What do you like best about the product?
I've been utilizing Hootsuite since 2011 when I had the need for a tool to control multiple accounts on multiple social networks. I've found it to be intuitive, easy to master and full of useful updates just when I start thinking I need them. The interface is simple and straight-forward, and I have taught this tool to many older professionals in my industry of school communications. I enjoy the ability to control my Facebook, Twitter and Instagram feeds all from one location, and also the ability to monitor special hashtags I use in my communication efforts with the scroll of my mouse. The scheduling feature makes my week more organized and takes one more thing off my to-do list each day, and the built-in link shrinking feature has always been great for saving space. Additionally, I use Hootsuite from my mobile device to push video on Facebook as the Pages app does not allow for that capability. It really is an all-around great tool on my desktop and on mobile.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are only two real hassles with Hootsuite that I have discovered during my use.
#1 - The post to Instagram is a bit cumbersome due to the way you have to push to it from your mobile device into Instagram and then post. It doesn't work in the same way the other networks allow you to schedule and forget.
#2 - There are size limitations to the image size you can post. As I shoot much of my work on a high-quality camera resulting in large size photos, it would be great to not have to edit them down before posting. (Note: This may be a limitation in the networks themselves, but I don't believe so.)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite allows me to save time, and that is the most valuable part of my day. As a busy communications professional running between school buildings every single day, it's nice to know that when I do have time to get behind my desk, I can schedule many messages that will appear on my networks with little additional effort. Also the mobile app allows me to post on the go when I need it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This product works best for those that need a tool to monitor multiple social networks. It may not be all that useful for those who don't have more than one network. Utilize the scheduling and monitoring tools. Both are great functions of this tool.
