Overall Satisfaction with Hootsuite

My marketing team and I use Hootsuite daily to schedule posts on numerous client accounts, and also on our own accounts. We benefit from having multiple social media accounts connected to our Hootsuite dashboard.
We would struggle to manually publish the volumes of posts we create on a daily basis. We find it's also useful to be able to easily check back to see when we posted for each client.
  • Allows for posting to multiple accounts, all can be viewed separately or whichever ones you want to view at one time.
  • You can easily check back to see past posts scheduled via Hootsuite.
  • We can schedule far ahead to work around team holidays etc.
  • Allow more scheduled posts per social media account.
  • Accounts disconnect for no apparent reason and posts don't go out.
  • Allow upload of images with bulk csv uploads/ allow recognition of images previously used for matched copy. Adding images afterwards takes aaaages.
  • Allow more accounts per Hootsuite account.
  • We can be more time efficient as many posts can be scheduled in advance.
We haven't contacted Hootsuite that many times but we do get a response.

Would you buy Hootsuite again?

Yes

Great for scheduling in batches, great for working around staff holidays. Easy to look back and see what's been posted, and what's been scheduled. Please don't change the calendar view.

Not so great for bulk csv file uploads as you have to add all the images separately which is very time consuming and leaves the possibility that it won't get done all at once.
