Hootsuite vs Social Champ Comparison

Saves time. Easy to control and work as a team. Customazing the dashboard is very useful. Competitor monitoring is a great function. Analysing and reports are customazible hence very useful. Publishing simultaneously is a big plus.

Social inbox can be more robust. I would love to see a social CRM option.

ease of use, can conduct the basic tasks necessary, been around in the industry a long time

user experience design could use work, integrations with social networks frequently failed/broke connection, social listening setup is clunky

multiple platforms reached with a single post

Some difficulty connecting certain social platforms

I like that it's easy to use, dynamic as it connects with most social media channels & allows me to easily schedule posts across multiple platforms. Easy to assign certain tasks across my team & also do social listening.

lack of advanced social listening features

I've been using HootSuite for years and I keep discovering great features! I recently discovered the app connections in HootSuite with UpContent and Right Relevance and they have been essential when I am having a mental hiccup and don't know what to post.

I have found sometimes the numbers for engagement in the analytics section are a bit inflated. And the permission levels on the Enterprise team plan can get annoying.

If you have a business with social media accounts, then you absolutely need this! It allows you to create posts and schedule them weeks in advance! Everything is on a single dashboard making it super easy to manage every channel.

It is a paid web based software and if you have any issues with the software, their customer service is very slow!

I like that you are able to schedule posts to multiple social platforms. I also really like the auto schedule feature.

I wish that hootsuite gave me more analytics. I also wish it told me how it figures the best time to auto schedule.

Pretty straightforward social scheduling tool. Makes it easy to post and manage social schedules across multiple accounts.

None really come to mind. Service does what is advertised. There are many features allowing flexibility for businesses of all sizes.

It's a easy to use software with powerful social media tools to manage your social media presence. This tool help us to schedule our social media posts with multiple accounts and also generate reports to identify your growth.

I didn't face any major issues with the software but sometimes their might be a problem of accounts connectivity.

can keep multiple social media accounts on track

Needs to add more social media functions

Hootsuite is easy to manage multiple social media accounts

Some social medias are not implemented yet

It's easy to use, user friendly and has a mobile app to make it convenient to make social updates while on the go.

Some of the API for some social networks are not perfect and make you go to the actual social network to make the post.

The social post scheduling is very good and easy to use.

Not all social websites are supported by hootsuite.

First, that with Hootsuite I can automate almost all major social media platform for my marketing and building brand presence without allocating dedicated manpower for posting and optimization. Secon easy to use interface.

Not that detailed Social Analytics reports with different KPIs.

The Free Version was enough for our small business. Easy to schedule posts on multiple accounts. Mobile app is easy to use and makes posting on the go simple. Link shortener and the ability to track analytics are helpful features. Multiple users can access accounts

Somewhat confusing dashboard. Video tutorials are helpful, but could be expanded to show different use examples.

Social media management , social media marketing and Sponsored campaign

user management and user security management

It's a solid social media platform where I can manage/ automate my social media posts across different social networks easily.

Onboarding experience takes time so you can feel comfortable how to use it. UX overall could be more intuitive.

Hootsuite covers almost every aspect of your role as a social media manager from scheduling post, finding new leads, monitoring, analytics, and assisting team members.

Another social media management tool with the basic features.

When dealing with social media management, branding, and customer relations the best software is hootsuite.

You have to understand social media tricks before use

I loved how I was able to plan a large number of posts in advance and schedule when they were going to be published. I am constantly on the go and timing in everything in social media. This program allows me to prepare in advance so I can pay attention to what I am doing in the present.

It does not have all the social media platforms .

I think Hootsuite is great for the basics of social media scheduling and it is also excellent with analytics, managing content, and social listening. I would say it is one of the best social media tools on the market.

They have really been around since the beginning and I can't think of too many cons that haven't been iterated and fixed. It used to look a little clunky in years past, but has really become more streamlined.

Very fast and quick to use interface to write and schedule posts.

Not all social media networks are available through Hootsuite.

It was easy to set up campaign posts to inform people.

It didn’t touch enough social media platforms and places.

Allows you to easily schedule social media posts on various social media networks making managing multiple social networks easy and convenient. It's also a great way to monitor social media comments, likes, mentions, etc.

I think the layout could be better so you don't have to scroll horizontally. Also, I've experienced issue in the past when trying to connect social media networks to the software. Once they're connected though, everything seems to work fine.

The ability to post over several platforms from the software itself saves a lot of time for social media moderators. The automated report generation is a game-changer.

It would be better if the software caters more detailed/ guided tour of the software so that it makes it easier for beginners also to use it with less technical terms.

I love it and use it whenever I can. I was using Hootsuite but I find Social Champ offers more functions I use and cheaper.

I find some of the more in-depth functions to complicated for me to use

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad Social Champ meets your needs and offers better value. If you need any further assistance, please feel free to reach out.

Switching over to Social Champ from Hootsuite has been a game-changer for our team. Not only did we find it to be more cost-effective, but it also provided us with additional features like post recycling that were missing from our previous Hootsuite plan. The transition was smooth, and we couldn't be happier with the enhanced functionality and affordability that Social Champ offers.

While the analytics initially fell short with Social Champ compared to Hootsuite, we've seen significant improvements in that aspect. With their more recent update, Social Champ has made great strides in providing the data we need directly within the app. It's reassuring to witness their commitment to enhancing their analytics features, making our experience with Social Champ even better.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled that Social Champ has been a game-changer for your team and that our features and customer service have exceeded your expectations. We appreciate your feedback on analytics, and we're glad to hear that recent updates have improved your experience. Thanks for choosing Social Champ!

It was fine until all my scheduled posts disappeared without warning or explanation. No way to put in a ticket or to retrieve. Countless of hours of panning and input down the drain. This has caused major problems and work

All scheduled posts disappeared. A disaster!!! The calendar view is ridiculous,. Coming from hootsuite which provided a visual of scheduled posts it's hard to change gears In socialchamp because you have to take multiple steps to view scheduled posts-wasting a ton of time and energy

We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the disappearance of your scheduled posts. This is not the experience we aim to provide. Your feedback on the calendar view is also valuable, and we will work on improving it. Please get in touch with our support team directly so we can assist you further and address your concerns.

Since this is the first social management tool I have used in earnest, I am pretty impressed with the capabilities and how much time is saved by using an all-in-one management platform like this one. By far my favorite feature of this software is the ability to manage and post to more than one social account at once and schedule posts for later publication. These features work exceptionally well on Social Champ.

While this is a minor gripe, I think the interface is a little dated and older looking. While it works perfectly fine, I think it could use a bit of a facelift, especially when comparing it to platforms like Hootsuite. Another minor complaint only pertains to those who use the free tier. The analytics in the free tier are particularly weak and only offer two weeks of data.

Ease of use and one step authentications with very easy to understand menu's. The mobile app is very useful too and very intuitive. Bulk posting with CSV adds charm to the software, you can see all posts in calendar thats's very helpful too. RSS feature is nice which helps to schedule posts directly from my website to social media.

Bulk image upload hosting is not available as of now due to which have to upload image at other place and then give links in Social Champ which becomes sometimes tiring .

Hey Paras! Thank you so much for the positive feedback it really helps us to keep pushing and improving the tool for our users. If you have any questions or queries feel free to ping us at hello@socialchamp.com. Happy posting, Champ!
