This is a great tool that has enormously helped our content team stay organized and post on a regular consistent basis.
Hootsuite makes it easy for our distributed team of content contributors to submit content, and our internal team can then create a posting calendar and use automated posting to make the management of all of our social platforms fast and simple.
We really like hootsuite, but it would be nice if more platforms and types of posts could be made.

I've been using Hootsuite for the past 3 years. The ability to schedule posts weeks in advance is what makes it a necessary software. It also has the ability to grant log-in access to my employees.
Added features could be zooming in on photos to post, and better tagging functionality. Tagging both inside the post, and the caption. An internal video & photo editor would be great too.

Hootsuite can be useful for a company that wants to publicize a product on different social networks because it makes it much easier to manage the accounts that you want to link to the tool.
The ease and security provided by having several social networks connected in the same place makes their management easier and is useful to know if any product you offer has been made known.
Hootsuite contains several plans with different prices, which fits a person's budget, but I feel that the packages that offer many tools are very high prices.

It managed to be one step ahead in my social media strategy by allowing me to easily manage and publish content on multiple social networks from a single interface. The statistical reports are also very complete. However, I missed some features exclusive to the paid version. In summary, for those who are just starting out and mainly use a network, the free version is functional, but to get the most out of it, I recommend having one of the plans that include more advanced tools.
I mainly liked the way Hootsuite makes it easy to publish content to multiple social networks on a schedule and in one place. The interface is very intuitive and allows you to create an easy-to-manage content strategy. With their calendars I can plan posts in advance, assign hashtags, and mention users. I also found the dashboard useful, which allows you to see the activity and engagement on each platform, as well as the statistical reports on reach and interaction. It is undoubtedly a great tool for those who must manage several profiles and do not want to constantly publish manually
What I liked least is that some features such as message alerts are only available on the paid plan. While I understand that it is a way for the company to earn income, for those just starting out with a small budget, those alerts could be useful. Another detail is that the programming does not allow as much flexibility when adjusting publication times when necessary. In general I feel that the free plan is somewhat limited and to get the most out of it it would be better to have the premium versions

Great experience. I have absolutely no problems with the product and how it works and their customer service is even quite awesome. If cost is not important, use it... if you're looking to get the same job done with another platform, its easy to find one.
The functionality of Hootsuite is great. Used it for years at other companies, it was the first to the table with what it does and im sure since i used it last, it does even more. The problem with it is that there are SO many smaller and more affordable options that get the job done.
The over all price point of the product is just to high for smaller business.
