    Considered Both Products
    Hootsuite
    Chose Hootsuite
    Agora Pulse interface is easier for newcomers,as inbox management. Reporting is much more complete, and included in the package (expensive add-on for Hootsuite Pro)

    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    Early on we did comparisons with Hootsuite and later with Adobe. While they have similarities, the difference at the time and likely currently, was the personal interest and general accessibility of Conversocial's platform and people. The combination of an effective CRM …
    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    I have also used Radian6 and Hootsuite. I did not like that you we're unable to archive in Hootsuite and could not see previous conversations. Hootsuite also had way too many columns that you could create and it was very disorganized in my opinion. Radian6 is a great tool but …

    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    I have experience with Hootsuite, Sprout Social, Simplify 360, Conversocial, Radian6, Cision, and Wildfire. Each of the platforms has a different strength. Conversocial excels at customer service management while Sprout Social is ideal for social media monitoring/engagement, …

    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    I have used HootSuite and Salesforce Radian6 and so far, Conversocial is my favorite. Where Radian6 excels for categorization of posts, Conversocial has a much easier learning curve. I did not use HootSuite for more than a month before the company switched us to Conversocial so …
    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    We performed a full evaluation of HootSuite, SocialEngage, and Oracle RightNow. Conversocial was selected for several reasons, including the intuitive interface (very important for CS agents, who are already working in a multitude of complex systems), capacity to support our …
    Chose Verint Channel Automation
    ZenDesk, Hootsuite. Conversocial allowed us to work 7-10X faster than we had previously while still maintaining the "socialness" of the platform, rather than converting the experience into a traditional customer service interaction.
