Saving time with content marketing
What do you like best about the product?
I love the bulk composer that I have just started using - it is an incredible time saver! I am looking forward to exploring Hootsuite boost as well which is a new function.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike Hootsuite’s inability to work directly with Pinterest and instagram. I needed to download a chrome extension (tailwind) and for instagram I need to be on my phone at the exact time of post and self publish all Instagram posts, making me feel like I am always on-call.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Growing an audience, checking out what content works and what doesn’t, also it is a quick way to see who is retweeting and tagging you as Hootsuite is quick to notify me when I’ve been mentioned.

Great for Social Media Managers
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to schedule posts in advance. You can also create "streams" to see different pieces of information, such as all mentions of your Twitter handle, or all posts you have scheduled.
What do you dislike about the product?
There really isn't anything I dislike about this program. I guess I would say I would like to be able to post directly to Instagram with Hootsuite, but I know the issue is with Instagram ans what they allow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you are the only one at your organization doing social media, then it can be tricky to ensure that all of your platforms get regular posts. With Hootsuite I can make posts days ahead of time, so that I am prepared for times when I am too busy or out of the office.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be aware that if you use this to post to Instagram, you will still need a mobile device to make the post. What Hootsuite does is create the post and send it to your device (on the scheduled day). But then you still need to make a final click from your device to make the post go live. This is due to restrictions that Instagram has in their API that prevents making posts through a non-mobile device.
Also, be aware that Facebook already has a feature that allows you to schedule posts in advance. Just start typing the post, and instead of clicking "Publish," click the arrow next to it, and select "Schedule."

Paying extra for analytics
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Their calendar view made it easy to see what has been scheduled and when to be sure that information is shared at appropriate times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The free version is great, but lacks the calendar view - for the annual fee it is definitely worth it, if you find yourself using it a lot.
Powerfull social media management tool, especially for teams
What do you like best about the product?
Hootsuite got a massive amount of features and tools to allow you to go very granular in terms of what info you want to curate and monitor. So much it can become overwhelming. To address that, the company puts together loads of training videos if you want to dedicate more time to go deeper. Their mobile app is good as well.

The free reporting tools are limited, even if you got already a paid plans. They drive you to buy additional reporting credits, which I find annoying.
