We found TweetDeck was simpler to use and easier to navigate for handling tweets than Hootsuite. While it did not have the broader ability to handle multiple social media platforms, unlike Hootsuite, its ability to give you great oversight of many Twitter/X accounts at once meant it was the ideal tool for that platform. Hootsuite, however, has deeper sophistication and opportunities for social media managers looking to handle everything in one place.

When [it comes to] comparison I found all these platforms competitive and having great features altogether. All features are the same like monitoring, scheduling, Analysing but TweetDeck mainly analyzes on Twitter whereas on Hootsuite and Buffer, [it only] allows [you to] manage different social media platforms. So it depends on your requirements.

Several years ago I used the Hootsuite Free service. I found Tweetdeck to be preferable because of its user interface, and greater functionality. Moreover, I recall Hootsuite bombarding me with emails that were just irrelevant. TweetDeck just does what it does, without hassle. Its UI and functionality for multiple accounts seems to be the best I've tried.

Scheduling posts on Twitter Ads was always a relatively timely task, whereas TweetDeck is easy and quick. This means more can be done on the platform in a shorter amount of time, so extra work can also be done elsewhere.

It is, in my personal opinion, the best client for using Twitter, and is far better than the native platform.

Unless you're using the paid version of Hootsuite, TweetDeck is far superior. Having no limits on the number of posts you can schedule is a big selling point. If you are on the paid version of Hootsuite, then you have more flexibility and the ability to manage multiple platforms. However, for Twitter-specific needs, nothing compares to TweetDeck.

  • Sprinklr Modern Engagement (formerly Social + Messaging Suite)
Sprinklr is a one-stop space for all social media platforms and Tweetdeck only offers use with Twitter. However, Sprinklr has been unreliable for us in the past for scheduled posts and is a bit more complicated to navigate - hence we alternate between TweetDeck and Sprinklr. Sprinklr also provides analytics which TweetDeck does not.

TweetDeck has the best listening for Twitter. Other platforms have social listening, but only for direct mentions or hashtag usage. TweetDeck can do so much more than this, picking up mentions of your brand even when a user doesn't directly mention you or use your hashtag. TweetDeck allows you to dig deep into your Twitter following and understand them.

There were a number of other social media dashboards I tried years ago but most of them were overkill for what I needed. There were lots of bells and whistles for lots of [money] but TweetDeck gave me everything I needed and was free.

TweetDeck is much cleaner and easier to utilize in Hootsuite. And, better yet, it is also free, which is nice. For budgetary purposes, would rather put it into ads and other mediums than paying for a software service.

There are many great Twitter tools out there for marketing etc, but for scheduling tweets, this is the only option I've ever explored (based on overwhelming recommendations). Even truer now that Twitter owns it.

I used to use both TweetDeck and Hootsuite to manage the Twitter accounts used by our company. However, TweetDeck offers simpler post editing options including the ability to insert pictures making it favorable for our purposes.

I also currently use HooteSuite to manage over multiple sm channels, and dedicate tweetdeck for events or twitter discussions that do not branch into other channels, because I often need a multiple channel manager.

I've used HootSuite and HubSpot's Social Inbox. I would say that TweetDeck ranks third amongst them. TweetDeck is ideal for beginners and as they become more advanced they might want to turn to HootSuite or HubSpot for more features and integrations and analytics. If you're looking for something simple, quick, and easy to set up, TweetDeck is perfect for the job.

TweetDeck is comparative with the options available in Hootsuite Free edition, although the fact that Hootsuite allows you to monitor and publish on other platforms is more convenient. I created a TweetDeck account when I began using Meltwater Buzz as I missed the column views from Hootsuite so I really only use it for monitoring the lists and users I follow.

Hootsuite - I've tried it 2 separate times but it was just overly complicated. At the time it also didn't have a better way to access it, like Tweetdeck Chrome app. Also compared to the regular Twitter site, it's much quicker and doesn't hide images. You can view about 7 columns from different accounts at once.

I use Hootsuite Enterprise currently to manage our client's social media accounts, and only use TweetDeck for top-priority issues that I want to make sure I see pop-up notifications for. Hootsuite Enterprise allows scheduling across many different channels and accounts and is great for managing accounts across different individuals and teams.

I like TweetDeck much better than Hootsuite or Sprout Social because of its endless customizing features. Being able to make very specific columns allows for a better user experience and more opportunities for your business. These very niche options are why I chose TweetDeck over a different platform.
