Buffer vs. Hootsuite: Which one is better for free use?
Importance of Social Media Management (even free!)
These days by expanding social networks and increasing their impact, all businesses (from startups to big companies) should be aware of using them to expand their business. several social media management platforms make publishing content on social networks more easier, but they are very expensive, the most famous ones which offer a good free plan are Buffer and Hootsuite. A good free plan is very important for startups, small and personal businesses to start. In this article, I am going to compare the main important free features of these two social media management platforms (this article is written in July 2019 and comparison is valid at that time and maybe for the future!).
Social accounts registration (Equal)
Both allow adding 3 social accounts in the free plan.
Supported social networks (Hootsuite)
Both support Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Linkedin in the free plan but Hootsuite supports Pinterest, Youtube, and WordPress too.
User accounts (Equal)
Both just allow one user account in the free plan.
