Hootsuite has a really easy to navigate UI that even as it has changed over the years, still maintains that quality throughout all of the iterations i've seen of it. This powerful tool lets you schedule content ahead of time, collaborate with coworkers, respond to commends and more. It is a powerful tool that continues to get more powerful adding tools like AI, and more platforms to it. I've used Hootsuite for nearly 10 years multiple times a week at this point without feeling the urge to switch, or look into other options.
Anytime i've had to get support, their customer service was quick and prompt. It was super easy to get other team members on board and bring hootsuite into our daily list of tools we use.
All in all, I wouldn't be where I am in marketing without Hootsuite I think, and that earns it a glowing review from me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think Hootsuite needs to intergrate some of the newer platforms available, as well as offer greater customizability for each of them when scheduling posts for multiple platforms. One of my clients who does alot of vertical short form video content, I use another website for that exact reason. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite is best for planning posts in multiple platforms. Because I am part of a non-profit and have a lot a of reaccurening events and programs, I really enjoy being able to duplicate and edit posts after they've been posted. I use it on a daily bases to schedual weeks and month in advance wice helps because I am not always able to keep watch on it.
Hootsuite also keeps posts up to a year so I can go back and resuse postings from up to a year.
It is very easy to learn and use, whenever I talk to other media sepcialist they tend to use this platform verus others. I have to make competeing bids every year in order to keep the software and its prices make it an easy choice to comepte with other.
While making posts I can also program the calander to show me only certain platforms, I mostly work with Instagram so it's nice to be able to filter out facebook, twitter, and linkedin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish Hootsuite had more neiche platforms availble to connect with.
I would also like to be able to post to stories without having to confirm it duing scheduling, I have never been able to figure out how that feature works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite provides a one stop shop to streamline the posting and customizing process for content across multiple platforms in a central hub where my collaborators and I can preview the content before it goes public. The analytics tab is also a terribly helpful amalgamator of data for grant reporting and strategizing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My only complaint is the price -- even with the nonprofit discount this is steep for my organization, and Hootsuite should be aware that a small org might save money and not affect their sales bottom line much by just embracing Meta's free tools if they dispense with X and others in order to focus on their strongest audience. I also find that on Facebook some emojis translate to small boxes, which interferes with the message. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I use Hootsuite almost every day — it is really helpful that I can create a post in one place that will then post to all our social media sites. I like that I can edit the caption and images to be different for each social media site. I also use the scheduling feature a lot to have posts go out on the weekends when I am not in the office. Overall it is an easy to use and helpful tool for creating and posting content! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only issue I have noticed is sometimes when I am editing an image using Hootsuite, it will not let me save the image so I am forced to refresh my browser and restart the whole post. This is especially frusting when I uploaded a lot of photos and had the caption created and then lose all that work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite is super user-friendly! Whether you are starting a small business, have a nonprofit organization, are a company of 500+ employees, you will find everything you need in this platform. It is to designed to be your one-stop shop for all social media management and analytics. I use it everyday for my current job role and it has been amazing. You can easily integrate all your social media accounts and post all from one place and even shows you when is the best time to post! Their customer support team is also always available and ready to help in case you run into any trouble or have questions, but in my almost 2 years of using this platform, I have only needed to reach out once and they were super helpful. They are overall a resource available to all Hootsuite users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some Hootsuite features and analytics that for anyone starting with social media management and wants to make an impact, can be a lot to try and understand. Would be awesome if Hootsuite hosted webinars for some FAQ's from their users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the feature that HootSuite shows you the best times to post. It often makes it easier for me to find the right times. It saves me a lot of time, especially on weekends, by eliminating the need to upload stories daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I miss for Stories is the ability to make them more interactive through HootSuite. We mainly use HootSuite for Instagram and Facebook, but unfortunately, we can't add stickers or music to the Stories through the system. Also, when uploading posts, it's not possible to add polls. But I'm looking forward to future updates! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I run about 10 social media accounts so having everything in one place makes my job easier & more efficient - I used to go to each individual social platform to post and it was extremely time consuming. From the beginning it was very easy to use. I can also see all comments/messages in one place as well as all analytics. Hootsuite is also more affordable than a lot of the other options. I've been using Hootsuite for about 2 years now and will continue to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I do wish I could post to YouTube Community through Hootsuite. I have had some issues where my scheduled posts don't post while I'm on vacation, or they post twice, but this doesn't happen often. Other than that, there's not much I dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite's analytics tool is second-to-none and is essential for those who require detailed reports on social media engagement, comments, and competitor checks. The interface, while extensive, is simple to use and makes it far easier to find what you're looking for than most other social managmeent tools. It has become part of my company's weekly and monthly reports as to our performance and is our go-to way to measure customer satisfaction. Adding apps is simple and you can build your network of apps and implement them with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some social media funcitons take longer to be integrated into Hootsuite than I'd prefer, and certain features, such as image editing, are too far behind traditional image editing apps to be worth using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the scheduling tool, it's great for team use and is very collaborative. We use it as a team every day to schedule posts and to analyse previous posts to see what engages the most to create more content that's similiar.
The dashboard is intuitive, with a clean design that simplifies navigating through multiple accounts, posts, and analytics. Even beginners can quickly learn how to use the platform effectively.
There are detailed performance analytics, helping users track engagement, reach, and ROI. The customisable reports are especially useful for businesses that need to demonstrate social media success to stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hootsuite can be expensive for smaller businesses or freelancers. While the platform offers various pricing tiers, the features available in the free or lower-cost plans are quite limited.
Although Hootsuite offers a range of integrations, some users may find the customization options for reports and dashboards somewhat restrictive compared to competitors.
We've experienced a few times where our posts have failed to post and we don't quite know why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Allows you to manage multiple social media platforms easily and does the job fairly. You can select different times to post on all platforms and makes it very easy to schedule content. I've been using this tool everyday and for past 2 years. Definitely a must when you have multiple platforms to handle with other digital tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There's no feature to add loaction to your posts. Other thing that I noticed is that for Pinterest you need to create seperate Pin to make a post. It should take a same content and post in while you are posting on other sites. Making a seperate Pin makes it time consuming. It does not serve the purpose of posting everything at once when Pinterest is a must for you. But overall it does a good job posting on FB, Insta, LinkedIn and Twitter, all at once.
