Overall Satisfaction with Hootsuite

As a freelance composer, social media has always been a vital part of my marketing strategy. Running multiple accounts, on multiple platforms, is time-consuming, to say the least. Hootsuite enables me to post from one place, scheduling the same post in many places at once and saves me valuable time.
  • Scheduling posts.
  • All your social media on one dashboard.
  • Replying to clients promptly from one place.
  • Price point for individuals is a bit high.
  • Sometimes connectivity to networks is spotty.
  • Faster updates.
  • Time. Hootsuite saves you so much time posting & responding on social media accounts.
  • They were the first to offer post scheduling, which is top-tier.
  • Customer service has a great response time, which saves you downtime.
Hootsuite was the original social media manager, and it's managed to stay on top a decade later because they're innovative, and at the same time, simplistic enough to make it easy for a small business to manage their social media marketing. Sprout also does a great job but at a higher price.
In the decade I've used Hootsuite, I've had very few complaints, and most of those were due to API issues, which are the fault of the social media platform. Their interface is clean and easy to figure out, they've saved me so much time and money over the years. Honestly, without them, I would have quit marketing to some platforms because of time. They've enabled me to be everywhere with a minimal amount of time.

I often want to blast the same message to multiple platforms at once, which can take up a lot of valuable time. Hootsuite allows you to post multiple messages at once to all of your social media accounts. Their tracking data is amazing - you can see your click-rates, interactions, and schedule posts when they're going to be the most effective. It's an all-in-one social media tool for your business.
