Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am the social media manager for a Hubspot affiliate agency. And I regret to say it is completely outdated and it created more problems than solved, in my opinion. We have several clients that like to approve the scheduled posts and that is not possible on this platform I've found. We had to use a second platform and a document that I had to write up (which took even more time). In my opinion, I have used other marketing platforms in the past that far exceed the capabilities that one would expect from such a prestigious company as Hubspot. It really is a shame that this platform isn’t better, in my opinion.

Pros and Cons

Has a fancy name

Improve the social media scheduling options
Allow for approved users to view calendars and approve schedules

Return on Investment

Created more work, in my opinion.
Causing more confusion with clients, I've found.

Alternatives Considered

Sprout Social, Hootsuite and Buffer

In my opinion, it does not stack up at all.

Likelihood to Recommend

From my perspective, I cannot in good conscience recommend this platform or program to a colleague. Besides bearing the respected and highly sought after name of Hubspot. In my view, it’s more of an ornamental piece to add to a website than an actual functional platform that should be used for marketers. In my opinion, you expect so much only to be let down and completely frustrated with it.
