Overall Satisfaction with Hootsuite

I have been using this platform for years, and it is the most practical and efficient when programming social networks for one of my clients.

It lacks the BlueSky network, and compared to other similar solutions it is a bit expensive, on the other hand it works very well.

Pros

  • weekly program
  • integration of a post in several networks
  • move posts from one date to another

Cons

  • restrict the use of publications to one year: this is insufficient, considering that more than $1,000/year is paid.
  • no BlueSky network integration
  • More efficient use of languages, for example Spanish and Catalan.
  • positive: it's easy to schedule a few weeks of networking in one go
  • not positive:Does not integrate networks such as BlueSky
  • not positive: expensive
Because the platform lacks the capacity to handle multi-year posts and new social networks, especially for the price it has. It lacks an effective integration of Spanish and Catalan dictionaries, but well done.
It has helped me to be able to manage several clients with several accounts. In that it is practical, but because of the previous sections I want to emphasize that it has a big margin for improvement, which is good, but it requires that the company gets its act together: when will I be able to see publications from more than a year ago? when will networks like BlueSky be able to see them?
More simplicity in use.Offer to manage several social networks very competitive, but with a structure that is not always transparent. The biggest handycap of this platform (from Hootsuite) is its price.
