For the Simple Socialite or Weekend Warrior Social Media Poster - This Will Do It All
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite makes it easy to add social profiles so there isn't any guesswork involved. While you can only add a certain number (I think 10) for free, that usually covers the main social profiles you might need (Facebook, Twitter, G+, Instagram, etc.). You don't need to know anything about computers or technology to quickly and easily understand how to use Hootsuite. You can write your posts in one sitting and schedule them out for months at a time. Links and images are easily integrated and don't require a lot of work or guesswork to get them added to posts. Hashtags are easily incorporated as well. Overall, it's easy to use, affordable or free, and I love using it for my personal social media posts as well as for my clients' social profiles.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, it can be frustrating when you want to keep the free option, but need to add/remove social profiles. You have to delete your current profile and make sure that all upcoming posts are gone as well or you may encounter some weird error messages. But, overall, there aren't a lot of downsides to using Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used Hootsuite in order to schedule out posts on our editorial calendar. This allows you to make sure you have posts for every important day, holiday, birthday, etc. Additionally, you can schedule these posts out, but make them slightly different for each social profile so they aren't in duplicate. You can quickly and easily change up the images and make the posts unique.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you familiarize yourself with how Hootsuite works with other social profiles. For instance, in FB, Hootsuite might break up posts that you didn't expect to be broken up (especially if they have more than one image). There are workarounds for this, but you need to do a little research to figure them out so your FB profile doesn't look like a mess.

It's super easy to schedule out on here. I love that you can have multiple accounts on there and different channels.

I don't think that the metrics are that great. I also don't find it to be the best software for more advanced social things like finding influencers, engagement, and writing up reports.

It's great to use for scheduling and engaging with users.
Timesaver if you have to manage more social media networks

Definitely the best content scheduling tool out there.
Big dog of social media management

Not the most intuitive to set up for team use. took an extra tutorial video. Costs a lot extra for each team member.

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!!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the analytics were a little more in depth but I think they will be more useful as we build a history.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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
