Easy to use and Keeps Me Organized.

  • May 20, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that i can see all of my social network activity via dashboards that I select and arrange. It gives me a quick, at-a-glance look at what's going on and/or whether or not I need to respond to a post/comment (positive or negative). I also like that the free account has a bunch of features - allowing me to keep marketing costs down, while also maintaining organizational sanity. I'm hoping to get approval to upgrade soon.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be a bit clunky to set up multiple social posts at once - but it's probably more user error more times than not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hootsuite allows me to pre-schedule my social content, allowing me to focus on other items on my "to-do" list. And, if something additional comes up, I simply log in and add it to the cue. All of my accounts are centrally located and easy to access - saving me a ton of time logging into each individual social account and post content.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out - it's free! If you hate it, there's not monetary commitment. If you love it - upgrade to use all of additional perks/features.

Empowers my entire team!

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is very intuitive and easy to use. It allows individuals to link Facebook Groups and Pages, as well as Instagram and Twitter. And it allows for scheduling as well as engaging followers right from the module.
What do you dislike about the product?
Right now, there is not much I dislike about Hootsuite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Hootsuite with my volunteers across the country who are running their own support groups on Facebook or special event Facebook pages and Twitter accounts. They have varying experience and comfort on social media and are often intimidated by the various channels they want to manage but feel they can't. By consolidating everything right in one product and then allowing them to schedule posts into the future, they feel in control of managing social media and interacting with their followers. It's fantastic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Understand your needs and budget. Hootsuite is a great fit for small non-profits. It's worth it to bump up to the paid version.

What do you like best about the product?
I like its dashboard interface, its easy to understand for any beginner starting social media marketing for its brand or services.
What do you dislike about the product?
Free account limit to only three social media profiles.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was having problem in posting and promoting my photography website photowalastudio individually in each social media platform but now its easy for me to schedule post to all three platforms like facebook, twitter and google plus with just on click.

Hootsuite for personal use, business and advocacies

  • May 19, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
That it's easy to learn and it's still free for up to 3 social media accounts. It also makes it easy for me to check all my social media accounts and retweet messages. It's also easy to shorten links, attach images and schedule tweets.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a bit of time to load especially for us here in the Philippines. Also, for a non profit in a 3rd world country, $8.99/mo is still high.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main benefit is that it's free and I use it to run a non profit website Localove Philippines to advertise local smallholder farmers, artists and micro businesses (http://localove.org).

Perfect solution for a small department without a dedicated social media person!

  • May 18, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Several of us try to keep up with social media for a small university department, but it's not in any of our job descriptions. Hootesuite's ability to let us schedule our posts ahead of time to multiple social media feeds has been awesome! We sit down once a month and get materials scheduled so that there's always new content in our feeds.
What do you dislike about the product?
Really wish there was an easier way to integrate with Pinterest and Instagram.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We no longer have long gaps between new content in our feeds, and we can track metrics for our social media posts--all in one place. We didn't have the time to do that before, and so we just didn't do it.

Hootsuite

  • May 11, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite allows us to manage multiple social media accounts simultaneously while also monitoring social media activity. One of the better social media management platforms available.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest wish is that Hoostuite could post natively to Instagram without having to manually push a photo on a mobile device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Social media managment and monitoring. Scheduling posts. Following trending hashtags.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Has more features, but more complicated than other services like Buffer and Sprout Social. Wish it had more robust analytical options.

Good low-cost solution

  • May 10, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite is a good free to low-cost product for social media moderation and scheduling.
What do you dislike about the product?
The analytics can be a bit clunky and you have to pay extra to really use them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This was the first software we used when we didn't have a budget for a more intensive product. It was good for basic scheduling and we often use it to create streams when we want to follow a hashtag. I often recommend it for our chapters who do not have a budget for monitoring software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good if you need a basic and inexpensive product for social media within a small team - I have not tried to use it as an enterprise solution

Social Media Management

  • April 27, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to manage my Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn from one dashboard. I also enjoy the ability to monitor mentions and trends along side of my feeds.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free plan only allows for a few accounts to be synced. It also lacks in integrating with all of my social accounts, and only syncs with the big players in social media. It also lacks in more in depth features, like social demographics, social reporting, filtering, social ad tracking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I previously was monitoring both a community foundation and a university department's social media feeds.
