Overall Satisfaction with Hootsuite

I use Hootsuite to schedule social media content for myself and I use the platform for their social media content management and scheduling.
  • Easy to schedule on one platform.
  • Easy to make changes to posts.
  • Easy to understand how to navigate the platform.
  • Would love to schedule livestreams through the platform.
  • Would love additional posting offerings (e.g. schedule more posts for free).
  • Would love more learning content to learn how to better use the site.
  • Save time on posting.
  • Enjoy posting with more order.
  • Learn how to curate content easier.
  • Buffer
I like Hootsuite but I don't think it is the best platform to use for free since you have posting limitations. If they removed restrictions then they would have more users who could take advantage of the platform.
I think it is helpful but there is room for improvement in functionality.

Do you think Hootsuite delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Hootsuite's feature set?

Yes

Did Hootsuite live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Hootsuite go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Hootsuite again?

No

It's great to post on 1 account for a limited amount of posts. However, if you want to post without restriction it isn't so great. Also, I don't feel there are enough opportunities to learn how to better use the platform itself.
