What differentiates Hootsuite Social Media Management SMB from other similar products?
There really is no difference between hootisuite and its competitors. It is well put together and has features that makes creating and monitoring your social media presence very easy.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like that I can see all my boards at a glance and can even connect Canva. You can create and save your designs in Hootsuite. You can even add any previously created designs to Hootsuite and create your own library. I love that they have the Hootsuite Academy as well. They have great resources to help setup or if you run into any issues. Did I mention their twitter account is very responsive. If you can't get a hold of someone in chat or by email - this options is great. They will take a look at what is going on and respond within an hr.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I am constantly having to reconnect my social site to my board. I have no clue why but its frustrating. I also do not like having to use the mobile version to create a carousel post. There is quite an obstacle to get through to get that established especially if you have more than one social media site.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
have the desktop and the mobile version mirror the same features.
Pros
- Trustworthy
- Respectful
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing
