    Hi

    I would like to know opinions about HootSuite.
    Besides HootSuite which other tools do you recommended to manage multiple social media channels?

    Thanks!

    From Hootsuite I manage my twitter and Facebook pages on my iPad 2. I don’t need anything else :D

    I use Tweetdeck, I did try HootSuite but it was on a machine in an office where I freelance and I didn’t have time to give it  afair trail.  Tweetdeck does everything I want, url shortener, schedual tweets, columns for organisation, image uploader

    I switched to Hootsuite after using Tweetdeck for a long time. Hootsuite’s been more reliable (my opinion) and I find it more ‘user-friendly.’

    Another tool I love is Postling. Indirectly it helps us manage multiple social media accounts. It notifies us as soon as anyone posts on a Facebook page. One of our services is managing and updating Facebook pages for clients and this tool keeps us on top of that!!

    I use HootSuite, and like its ease of use. It helps me manage or monitor things for clients, too.

    I use HootSuite and it has been easy to use for what I need. When I was volunteering with Social Media For Nonprofits over the summer, HootSuite made it easy to handle multiple accounts (Twitter and Facebook). I hope that they add Google+ capability to the free accounts soon.

    @marlenegavens, thanks for the heads-up about Postling and its alert capability.

    I recently started using HootSuite and we are on a Pro Account. Supposedly Google+ posting will be integrated soon for all users (currently only available to Enterprise accounts -  @kc_kreative) which will make HootSuite exponentially better than others including TweetDeck (which I used previously).

    At Media by Moyo we truly believe in keeping personal and work separate when it come to platform we use to manage accounts. Tweetdeck for personal Hootsuite for professional.

    Thanks @alexandrabriggs! 

    If anyone has multiple HootSuite or TweetDeck accounts, i.e. their company’s and their personal one, is there a good way to manage them, esp. on mobile platforms? It’s doubtful that I can have two HootSuite logins on my Droid X for when I’m out of the office. I did notice that the updated Twitter mobile allows for multiple account toggling now…

    @kc_kreative I actually have some of my personal pages linked into HootSuite so I can post from them as well opposed to having multiple HootSuite accounts. I know Twitter is starting to integrate “business” pages so I am guessing the toggling will be similar to what Facebook and Google+ have for business pages. I am usually just careful when posting to my personal so there isn’t a cross-post as the business page. I prefer retweeting or sharing what is posted from the business page

    Love, love, love HootSuite. My company manages multiple types of social accounts for multiple clients, and we can manage them all, at-a-glance, with HootSuite Pro.

    This is a link to my HootSuite affiliate account in case you’re thinking of signing up for the Pro version, which costs $5.99 month for unlimited accounts and one person (other than you) who has access to update the accounts.

    @alexandrabriggs I appreciate the advice. Re-tweeting and sharing is an excellent idea. Twitter is my main concern as my phone has a separate program for posting to my personal FB account (which I keep for family & friends).

    @marlenegavens @fernandocortes

    I started using Hootsuite today.  So far, it is pretty useful for scheduling posts.  However, since I only manage a limited amount of accounts, I find that it might be easier for me to just go directly to the site.  Though, as time goes on and we get more businesses, I am sure I will utilize Hootsuite to its potential! Thank you all!

    I like Hootsuite as well, except I can’t seem to add another profile on my account, even though their app has been accepted on my Twitter account.

    I use Hootsuite at work. I’ve also used Tweetdeck, and there really aren’t any significant differences. If you want to manage multiple Twitter accounts on your droid, try using Tweetcaster. I love that app.

    I’m just starting out with Hootsuite, trying to add an RSS feed but nothing gets posted to Facebook and Twitter when I blog.  Any suggestions?

    This is the feed I’m using. I checked it with a feed validator site:

    I am curious…I use Hootsuite, too.  Is anyone having problems with the App crashing when used on the iPad?
