I have been using Hootsuite daily for over 2 years and I am quite happy with it. It is definitely useful if you have several social media accounts and want to be active on all of them simultaneously.
Poor Customer Service and no credit issued when internally know issues are brought to attention. Meaning they knew about their software not working yet did nothing to notify their customer base.
It's got a free version with good functionality, the paid version offers some nice upgrades, and it does have Instagram integration. You can save posts as drafts to get around the scheduling limit.
Absolutely ridiculous!!!! As a small business owner every penny counts and this practice is unacceptable.
Such a easy and helpful tool for scheduling social media for an organization. I do not know how I lived without it before but I am very happy that I have it now.
It would be unfair to criticize such a software that provides planned and organized use.
What I love most about this software is its ability to track Twitter conversations. In fact, one of the most helpful aspects of this software is using it for Twitter and Twitter Chats.
Additionally at least once or twice the scheduled content has failed to post, and it is difficult to track these.
One of my favorite features of Vaizle is the ability to add and create custom white labeled reports and comments to them if I want. I love that you can also track competitors data.
Maybe I have to spend more time with this tool. I use Firefox so warning about not using Chrome is annoying.
Super useful if you are looking for in-depth analytics and reporting. Competitor tool is great as well.
Lack of Linkedin integration, which the developers are working on to bring it in.
I like how easy it is for me to gain insights on my competitors advertising efforts and to do comparative studies on best practices.
Also I think covid hit them hard, they stopped evolving the platform, and now it's just there basically the same it was when they launched.
This is very useful and great for an in depth look. I feel that if you're looking to improve your profiles and your online image, this is a necessity.
Reliability is insanely bad. It's supposed to automate the reporting process.
Rick K.: Hi, I'm Rick, the owner of a small business. We're under 10 people, and I give Hootsuite a five out of five. Previously, we were just using Twitter, and that just didn't give us the depth of scheduling and the ability to crosspost to multiple platforms. Hootsuite allowed us to do all the crossposting we wanted, and with our small business, we didn't even need to pay for Hootsuite. I think we got three separate accounts for free, like three seats to post to three different social media platforms for free, and we didn't need more than that so price was a factor. Getting started with Hootsuite was really simple. It was really just a matter of still having to create the content for social media. Hootsuite made it so we could just post it into Hootsuite, then schedule it, and it was ready to post. I mean, as soon as that date and time came around, Hootsuite auto posted it for us, which was great. I would say just jump in with Hootsuite. It has been the best software that we've used to help us with our social media in terms of posting and scheduling so that we didn't have to take time every single day and remember to post. We just scheduled a week, sometimes even a month in advance.
