Would you buy Hootsuite again?

Creating a post for four different platforms with different restrictions would be unmanageable for us without a tool like Hootsuite. The ability to create a post and edit for each platform increases our capacity and empowers us to reach a broader audience. The features of Hootsuite are user-friendly and I particularly appreciate the scheduling option and recommended scheduling tools. Hootsuite does a good job of continuing to add features and show how to use them including the recent addition of TikTok. A helpful addition would be the ability to create FB events. While I haven't utilized the analytics feature within Hootsuite, instead of relying on those within social platforms, I will make use of them in the near future.
