Hootsuite Reviews & Product Details

The calendar view with all of my accounts & planned posts.

I didn't like how you couldn't automatically post from an instagram profile to a facebook group. There was no way to connect the two.

The time consuming back & forth between social media platforms & accounts.

Hootsuite is easy to use, I love the fact that all the platforms that I use can be shown on the same page and the publisher screen makes it so easy to see exactly what you publishing on each day at a glance. Moving posts is easy to do and is as simple as drag and drop , adding media is easy. It's just perfect !

I haven't found one downside to this platform. It rarely has any downtime, it's very intuitive to use. Once your posts are published on the software, you can sit back and just let them publish! I haven't experienced a single problem with this software in the 7 years I've been using it.

Running two seperate social media accounts I need to be able to plan what I'm publishing in advance and to be able to see all this on one page is fantastic. I work two months in advance so also being able to glance quickly and see what time and what subject today's Facebook and Twitter posts are about is also very helpful. The ease of the drag and drop to move a post to a new time is also another fantastic feature which makes it easier to edit and change posts.

Scheduling, Insights, Analytics, and Reporting

UI could be better. Better font selections and color schemes would make it more user-friendly.

I am getting better insights and analytics from Hootsuite that helps me in planning better social media strategy

the suggested posting ideas and help, grammatical help

not really anything that i have found at this point

Ideas for posting material

The interface is reasurringly consistent and easy to get to know. Love the choice - but not too many choices!- of views. Beng able to see each post, to each platform on a visual timeline easily wihtin my laptop screen really helps all those unconscious judegments -"are there too many posts today? or 'hmm Ive used that picture too many times'. Our tiny tiny team running an important heritage visitor site doesnt have the time, nor inclination, to delve deep into analytics and long term insights, but Hootsuite enables you to find out just enough of how your doing, without 'over techinicalising ' it. Boosting posts is also sooooooo much easier than on 'other' platforms and the 'boost all posts' is absolutely ideal for our level of operation. Just waiting for Threads to be added now ..

Not a lot to dislike. Grammarly really annoys me and would like to turn it off permanantly - but havent had time to see if its possible. the AI option was fun to try- but not enough to pay for it yet Wish the planner had a quicker way of creating placeholder posts All the other irritations come from the orginating platforms changing their processes- but Hootsuite always communicates that really well.

Our heritage charity is dependent on building visitors and users via, literally hundreds of, events and activities. Marketing and social media is only one part of our 'team's roles, so having an easy to learn, reliable and visually helpful tool like Hootsuite enables us to make our tiny voice make a really big noise .

I like the ability to schedule posts in advance. I have also appreciated being able to see all of my posts coming up and also the new feature that will help us generate content!

I wish I had more time to dig deeper into the features offered by Hootsuite. I use it for small projects but would like to learn more about the other features offered!

I like being able to see all of my social media platforms in one area and also being able to schedule posts!

View and manage different social networks in an organized manner, according to the criteria I need without having to switch between user accounts. That saves me a lot of time and effort

Hootsuite has a free plan that has certain limitations, but in the advanced plan the functions are extended and there are practically no limits. Everything will depend on the user's needs. We really miss the Hootlet extension for the Chrome browser!

Efficiently manage the social networks of our agency and our clients, from one place of optimal and personalized according to our needs. Able to provide response to messages and interactions generated by publications in each social profile, including the allocation and delegation to our team as well as generate frequent reports for performance analysis

Ease of use, easy to find content and professional

Limited material, I'd like to see more option

Helps me to reach the masses and keeps our agency top of mind

I love how everything is easy to use. It is a great platform that allows you to make multiple post at the same time and manage the engagement of those post. Amazing!

The platform was amazing overall. The only downfall is that I was not able to delete or edit post on live time. I had to go to another platfrom to fix these errors.

This platform is help;ing others manage their business accounts to make things easier for the consumer. It was very beneficial to have everything in one place just for visibility and clarity.

I love the schedule ahead feature for placing my posts for the week ahead of time. Set it and forget it! also, monitoring your streams in a one stop manner on the platform vs. toggling through browsers is super helpful.

The only thing I don't like is not being able to tag people or businesses with differing handles on Facebook vs. Instagram vs. Twitter. You end up having to post multiple times if the person/businesses handles aren't the same across all.

Monitoring and posting to our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages simulatenously instead of toggling through browers constantly thorughout the day. Helps tremendously with time management.
