    Pros
    Overall its been pretty good. Im not a big social media fan so I like it to be as simple as possible to get my message across.
    I love that I can save drafts and schedule easily. This makes my social media strategy clear and streamlined with the ability to plan ahead.
    I was excited to start using Hootsuite for the simple reason that I needed help managing my accounts. Like the very easy dashboard and functionality.
    Cons
    There are times that the software has been a little buggy for us. Sometimes images fail to upload or content fails to post due to errors.
    I had an issue with integrating it with all my platforms. I forget which one, but I was missing one that I had to do separately.
    It may be user error, but it has proved an inconvenience at times.
