Small Talk Messaging vs. Hootsuite

smalltalk-vs-hootOne of the most common questions we get here at Smalltalkmessaging is “How does it compare to HootSuite?” HootSuite is a great tool, but it does have limited capabilities for someone who really wants to dive deep into social media as well as online marketing or manage several clients. HootSuite is used primarily as a Twitter tool (although it does more than just Twitter), whereas Smalltalkmessaging is an all-around online marketing tool.
I have put together a list of the features and services that Smalltalkmessaging supports as well as those that HootSuite supports below.
