TweetDeck

The column settings buttons in Tweetdeck are easy to use. The dark theme makes it easier on the eyes than the static white used to. Everything is cleanly and neatly laid out for both personal and business use.

When using Tweetdeck sometimes it takes time for the columns to load. Managing a business and keeping track of different companies via their Twitter updates is hindered when the information isn't easily accessible.

This is very convenient in scheduling tweets and specially with multiple accounts. You can even login to these accounts at the same time which is a lot more convenient than logging out and then logging in to another one. I'm also confident using it with the idea that it is of the same company that it caters to, so at least when asking for support, which I haven't tried, is a lot easier. I tried a different app previously intended for my tweets, and this tool is great as it allows more content to be posted/ scheduled.

I just wish that this app supports other operating systems to allow other users to access it. Because like me, I access a lot of gadgets whether at work or at home, and it just deters me to not be able to use it on other devices. Another con for me is that you can't use it on other social media platforms, which would've been great since the interface is not so cluttered for this app.

Tweetdeck is a social media content management platform designed to help schedule tweets, follow trends, and manage accounts. I use Tweetdeck for podcast promotion via Twitter.

Tweetdeck allows you to schedule multiple posts to Twitter a number of days in advance. I had one point where I was scheduling 3 posts a day for every day of the month, and I still didn't run into the limit of Tweets I can schedule (if there is even a limit). This allowed me to have a constant stream of content flowing out of the account, even when I wasn't always logged on. Then, I could log on and respond to comments or interactions. It cut down the amount of times I logged into Twitter a day for a single tweet and/or interaction.

Tweetdeck, compared to a competitor like Buffer, is awesome. For free, you can easily follow and manage hashtags, multiple accounts, and set up your feed in a simple way. For myself, I had a whole bunch of podcast-related hashtags that allowed for me to easily watch what was trending in my field, and then interact.

I understand that the dashboard is set up in a way that you can drag and drop multiple feeds into one screen and watch them all, but I had to search a video online to make sure I was using the website properly. Some softwares have built in "how-to" tutorials, and the fact that Tweetdeck didn't is a mistake.

It requires a little bit of knowledge to setup what hashtags you're following, too. Sometimes you come in and type #(blank) and easily find it, but other times you need to know the specific hashtag for the topic you're following.
