• Commun.it recommends good content to Tweet if you provide the right hashtags or topics to search.
• Commun.it makes it really easy to thank each now Twitter follower and to reach out to influencers that you may have neglected.

• When it works, the ability to write ONE post and apply it to multiple platforms is great. Huge timesaver, and ensures consistency of content across your platforms.
• The customizability of streams is a cool feature. You can really dial in a dashboard that fits your unique needs, instead of trying to adapt yourself to a default vanilla setup. Whichever content streams (both existing and scheduled) are important to you can be placed front and center and edited as needed.

• Be prepared, you'll receive a lot of emails from commun.it. They keep you engaged by reminding you to return to your dashboard. But they also will send several emails trying to get you to upgrade.
• "Thanks for the retweet" and "Thanks to the high-value members" aren't tactics I like to use on Twitter.
• On the free version, you are only allowed 20 actions a day. This goes by in a flash, would love to have a few more.

• I personally don't like the way Hootsuite displays multiple social channels on the interface. It's very utilitarian and it does have a modern look, but there's just something about the multiple column look that really bugs me. It feels a bit dated and cluttered.
• I've used both the free and the pro versions before. Pro is somewhat overpriced for the value that it provides and the free version limits you to too few social profiles which puts you in a position to either overpay or go to another option like Buffer which is cheaper but isn't as reliable. I'd say somewhere around $12-15/mo. would make the single-user Pro tier more palatable.

• It enables me to spend less time worry about posting and I'm able to schedule and walk away. Saves time, which increases productivity.
• Being unable to tag companies and people on LinkedIn impacts the reach and engagement of my posts, which impacts monthly success, which negatively impacts my social efforts overall.
• Having an easy, formal review process between us and client is a huge help in saving time for us and the client. Saved time = saved money/productivity.
