What do you dislike about Hootsuite?

i've known Hootsuite for almost 10 years, and i've seen the changes but i don't feel them like groundbreaking. Sometimes is not enough for the needs of the work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Hootsuite?

The thing that sets Hootsuite apart is it social media inbox. I get alerts for all channels instantly for all communications: Instagram/Facebook stories, tags, posts, and direct messages; linkedin tages, comments, and direct messages; youtube comments and tags. This makes it so easy to manage all my accounts! The scheduling tool is also great because it gives me a preview for each social network including how the images will be displayed. I have tried other tools and they are lacking when it comes to messaging and previewing posts.It's easy to learn the inbox and scheduling posts. It was very easy to setup and connect all of my social accounts. I use this multiple times a day, everyday. Reporting is a bit clunky and has a learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hootsuite?

This is one of the most expensive social media managers I've tried. I don't like how it limits me on number of competitors to compare in reports. I wish reporting was easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hootsuite solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have one central spot to see all the comments, messages, and tags from all my social media accounts. This saves me so much time. Scheduling posts also saves me a ton of time. I am able to compose a post in one window then push it out to multiple channels with the push of a single button. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite is very easy to use and the best for planning multiple social media posts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hootsuite?

The only thing about Hootsuite I dislike, and honestly dislike isn't the right word, but when I have had technical issues, I didn't get to speak to someone live. Everything was done through emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hootsuite solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about Hootsuite?

Ease of scheduling posts across multiple platforms and integrating said platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hootsuite?

The hashtag tool is useless - it doesn't suggest tags that are trending or anything that would extend the reach of posts, they're just random keywords pulled from the post I'm creating. I wish it functioned better. I also don't like the recommended posting times because they don't make sense to me. If you go to schedule a post, and select recommended times in the editor, it suggests a different time than what is listed on the scheduling calendar. It makes me think that it's not using the actual analytics to recommend the best times to post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hootsuite solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hootsuite allows me to post on all of our businesses social profile without having to do it individually which saves me a lot of time. That is the main thing I use it for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hootsuite?

Hootsuite Amplify has been a game-changer for our company's social media strategy. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy for our employees to share pre-approved content on their personal social media accounts. This has significantly increased our reach and engagement. The integration with the main Hootsuite dashboard is seamless, and the analytics feature provides valuable insights into the performance of our advocacy efforts.

The gamification aspect keeps our team motivated and engaged, and it's great to see everyone contributing to our brand's presence online. The only challenge we've faced is ensuring consistent usage among all employees, but with some internal promotion and support, adoption has been steadily improving.

Overall, Hootsuite Amplify has empowered our employees and strengthened our social media outreach. Highly recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hootsuite?

It helps me manage my personal social media accounts and I love the ease and efficiency of use. 5 minutes a week keep my profile active and top of mind in my industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
