Hootsuite Reviews & Product Details

I like that Hootsuite's interface is simple to use and doesn't require a tech background to understand. It's very intuitive and easy to navigate, allowing us to quickly gather information about our posts and anything we're tracking. It also allows new users to jump in and adopt the platform quickly and easily without much training. The interface is much cleaner compared to what we used before, and the team just likes using it a lot better. The initial setup was very easy, which made the transition smooth.

I wish Reddit was integrated into the platform because it's a social network we're using more and more recently. Wider platform compatibility would make it more useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite allows me to post on Instagram, two Facebook accounts, plus Twitter all at the same time! I have used it for work since August/September of 2020, and it has been a great experience. I never knew programs like this existed until I got into my job as Director of Communications. One of my favorite features is how it suggests optimal times to post, based on the engagement of viewers from previous posts. It is easy to use and very user friendly. Integrating it into my work has been seamless. I highly recommend it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only two downsides I've experienced is that sometimes accounts will disconnect, although reconnecting them is quick and easy, and items will fail to post for a variety of reasons. When that happens, I just post them or schedule them for later, so that's not a big deal to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Hootsuite gives me a wide set of options to manage all my social media channels in one place and cross-post. I’m a fan of its free tools, including the caption generator, and its YouTube management. I also like using it for competition analysis because its insights feel more descriptive and intuitive than those in other tools I’ve tried. It helps me keep my social media inbox and customer inquiries together in one place and see consolidated performance across my channels. Hootsuite suits my workflow, and setup was quite easy: I had no problems signing up or connecting my channels, and nothing hindered my workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used to like Hootsuite’s UI and UX, but now it feels a little clunky and has more controls than I need. It seems like I need a few more teammates to handle it, when I’d like it to be more focused on individual users. The analytics can also be better; what’s shown on the platform is confusing.

We use Hootsuite to write and schedule our social media content. Scheduling posts in advance makes it easier to focus on other tasks or take vacation. We love seeing our entire calendar and monthly schedule in a bird’s-eye view. Since we post about a lot of different topics, seeing everything at a high level helps us give topics enough breathing room and keep a consistent schedule for engagement. Setup was very easy and took only a few minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the analytics function a little hard to use and confusing when I have multiple accounts. It’s a little hard to make sure I’ve singled out one account and haven’t combined them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite is valuable because it centralizes social media publishing, scheduling, and monitoring in a single workspace. I especially appreciate being able to plan content across multiple channels, coordinate team approvals, and track engagement without constantly jumping between native platforms. For a media-monitoring and communications workflow, it saves time and makes editorial planning feel more organized and structured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hootsuite can feel expensive for smaller teams, especially when advanced analytics, additional users, or broader functionality are needed. The interface is generally capable, but some workflows such as managing streams, permissions, and reporting could be more intuitive and faster to configure. It would also be helpful to have more flexible integrations and clearer guidance on which features are included in each plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Hootsuite to handle our company's multiple social media accounts, schedule content ahead of time, and plan future content. I no longer need to open multiple social media tabs or log in to each account separately to schedule posts. I really appreciate the approval flow: I can draft posts, and my manager can give feedback directly. The UI is straightforward and easy to understand, even for someone who hasn't used social media management tools before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I could delete or edit posts directly in Hootsuite. When I need a post deleted or edited, I still have to log in manually and delete it myself, and I’d like built-in access so I don’t have to open a new window. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Hootsuite to create posts for multiple accounts and platforms at the same time, so I don’t have to spend a lot of time creating them, and I can do it really easily. I like the calendar setup: I can see the whole week and all my accounts by day, schedule and manage posts, and move them between days. I also like Wisdom AI, which helps me plan posts for the week, come up with post ideas and hashtags for reach and engagement, and create different versions for different platforms and accounts. It was pretty easy to set up and connect our accounts, and adding accounts is also easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes Hootsuite randomly disconnects my social media accounts, especially LinkedIn. I can reconnect them, but it’s a little tedious, and sometimes posts will fail to get published before I realize there’s a problem. The Wisdom AI can also give me repetitive post ideas unless I ask for something more engaging or specify a theme. I’d like the ideas to have a little more variety, and the LinkedIn disconnections need to be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Hootsuite is how easy it makes managing multiple social media accounts in one place. As someone who manages social media for multiple brands and organizations, I appreciate being able to schedule posts in advance, organize content calendars, and track performance without constantly switching between platforms. It saves me time, keeps everything organized, and helps me maintain a consistent posting schedule across all my accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike most about Hootsuite is its pricing, especially when managing multiple social media accounts. While the platform offers great tools, some features are locked behind more expensive plans, making it less accessible for smaller businesses and independent social media managers. I also find that certain features, like scheduling specific types of content or accessing detailed analytics, can be more complicated than necessary. More flexibility and affordable pricing options would make the platform even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Hootsuite is how it keeps everything organized without making social media management feel overwhelming. Being able to see multiple accounts and upcoming content in one place saves me a lot of time throughout the week. The platform helps me post consistently and in a streamlined way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don’t like about Hootsuite is that it can feel a little overwhelming when there’s too much going on in the dashboard. Some features that seem pretty basic are only available on the more expensive plans. Every now and then I find myself clicking around longer than I should just to get where I need to go. It’s useful, but it’s not always the most intuitive platform to navigate. Sometimes it feels like it could be a lot simpler for everyday use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how easy Hootsuite is to use. It’s simple to schedule tasks and keep track of everything in one place. I also appreciated how straightforward the initial setup was. The UI/UX is clean and intuitive, and I especially like how easily I can use the AI tools to schedule and plan posts—this is the best part for me. The pricing suits our budget and integrations help in saving time. performance has therefore got increased Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
