HubSpot Marketing Hub vs Buffer Comparison

1. Easy to understand. 2. Short and Simplified English lectures. 3. Gives master marketing tips

1. Required desktop/ laptop for effective learning. 2. Required Faster Internet Connection for Buffer Free Streaming.

Buffer makes it easy to manage most if not all of your social media channels and push content out to your followers in advance. Our marketing team has saved hours by having buffer as the centralized hub to manage and schedule all of our social content.

The only issue we have noticed is from time to time the Meta Social channels tend to get unlinked but it's understandable as Meta Policies are everchanging and relinking is a breeze.

In this day and age, social media marketing is key. This helps take that game to the next level

nothing. great tool to help with your marketing on social media channels

Buffer is a time saver for Digital Marketers, In the past you need to post on every individual social media now buffer changed the whole scenario you post in one platform which can share it on almost all the social media platforms that's mind-blowing. Thanks, Buffer...

The Buffer Reply is the least, since I can't use it much for my current role.

Buffer is a great way to manage multiple accounts in one area. I manage social media for several clients and using Buffer to make sure I'm getting posts out and following up on comments or engagements is a life saver. I've used other options and have come back to Buffer more than once.

I don't use Buffer to monitor possible trends anymore. Although some of their features could be used to stay on top of trends in content marketing or social media marketing, it's just not as efficient as other options.

With the amount of social media management Buffer provides, our marketing team can greatly increase their effort in other aspects of marketing

It only has the most popular social media channels, thus lacking the integration with some more specialised platforms

Hi, Austin, thank you for the awesome review! I'm so glad to hear that Buffer has managed to help make your marketing team be more productive. I hear you about the social media channels. I believe it has been an intentional decision to integrate with the most popular social media channels so that we can best support our customers with our small team. That said, I'll be curious to hear what other platforms you're thinking of. Thanks, Austin. -Alfred

Easy to use and implement. Basically just connect your social accounts and you can get to it. I prefer it much more to hubspot social, or other platforms I've used like Sprout.

Hard to post videos and it would be nice if you could see all mentions on a feed, like twitter mentions and LinkedIn @'s.

It is so easy to use and I like that you can post schedule several post at once.

I want to be able to edit the social account. If I post something to an IG account, I want to be able to change my mind to post it to FB instead without having to delete and reload.

It offers access to most social media platforms and gives me the ability to plan my social media calendar easily and effectively.

None of the available solutions in this demographic fill one's needs 100%. Each has its points, but none are a total perfect fit. Buffer lacks integration with popular content publishing services to pull auto content into scheduled postings. It can be confusing to novices as well.

Buffer makes it easy to plug in logins and collaborate with a team of social media managers. Useful for people managing social media accounts for multiple businesses.

This is all the software is useful for, social media. It is not the best software for managing other aspects of marketing.

ease of use, really easy to schedule posts to different channels

nothing wrong with the product, did what it is supposed to do. As what it comes to our team's needs.

• Works great for marketing professionals • Has an option for any business size

• No cons so far. It’s not the cheapest but for good reason.

The schedule posting and its UX design, it is simple to use and works great with social media platforms

One have to pay to get their extra extra feature

The time and the thought that the team invests in implementing new features and the ease of use. Buffer is just amazing.

I love everything about it. The marketing, the product, the company culture. I am looking forward to seeing more amazing things coming from them.

Buffer is great for simpler social media accounts that don't require advanced features and functionality from a Gain or Sprout Social. Price is reasonable.

The lack of features makes the software prohibitive for agencies and marketing leaders that are trying to operate at a high level across several accounts.

Buffer serves as an effective hub and scheduler for all of your social media account. If you're posting across multiple social networks (which you should be doing), it's so much easier to schedule a single post in Buffer for all channels instead of going through all of the sites separately.

Buffer occasionally disconnects from the social media before/after posting. This is probably due to the authentication issues and Buffer does its best to notify you that something is wrong and action is required, but I wish such disconnects were less frequent.

Easy to use, fulfills an actual need in my content marketing system, very affordable.

I wish I could put duplicate content in the queue...

The post scheduler is great not just because I get to save time but I can see all my scheduled posts at one place.

There is some learning curve if you're a first time user.

I loved the useability of this tool in connecting multiple social media accounts. it provides 3 accounts to link to in the free plan. Helped me a lot in multiple postings across linkedin, twitter and facebook. The extensions provided for browsers is a godsend

The pricing seems a lot for academicians or general public. It is of course meant for marketing professionals, but adding some lower level tiers would help

Buffer is a great apps for social media marketing. Publishing a campaigns in one apps

The free trial give you a limited connectiom to your other social media platform. But if yuo want to grow your campaign try the premium one.

Buffer is just a heaven for social media specialists. It cuts the time required to schedule everything and makes the overall process much easier.

The only tricky thing here is to change the time zone you are posting for, so you do not miss the time you wanted your posts to air.

Buffer is extremely easy to use, so especially if you're a marketing newbie, this is the tool for you. They even tell which of your updates did great on social (their 'Top tweet' feature) which can give you some hints on the direction of your social media marketing strategy. I also really like how engaged Buffer's staff is in building the marketing community - just take a look at their blog!

I wish they would integrate their other tools such as Pablo better in their main app, so it would be easier to use them.

It's a great scheduler for social media posts and is essential for running online marketing campaigns.

The push to move to a paid version can be a little much, and you don't get a lot of posts for the basic package.

- Is very well integrated with all the social media platforms - Has relevant and ample functionalities to get the job done

- There are no such cons of Hoosuite according to my point of view. - Not very scalable and interactive.

I love using Buffer! It is easy, straight forward, and makes my life so much easier.

I don't like how basic the Buffer platform is. There could definitely be more features that would help to source Buffer as the sole social media marketing software.

Being able to post across various social media sites saved a lot of time, energy, and allowed for collaboration and creativity.

Sometimes integration with another social media platform was not smooth - needed so research and trials. Eventually, it worked out.
