Hey guys,

I'm curious to see which you like more...buffer or hootsuite for automating social media.

Buffer: http://bufferapp.com/
Hootsuite: https://hootsuite.com/

Personally, I love Buffer and have used Hootsuite in the past, but converted.

Howdy,

We've been using Hootsuite and found it to be really effective.

My main issue, however, is that scheduled tweets that contain pictures won't actually show the picture in the tweet once it's live. It only contains a link to the picture and the image doesn't actually come up.

If followers engage much more with tweets with images, which is what I've been led to believe, then there would be a case for switching to Buffer if they actually show pictures in pre-scheduled tweets. Is this the case?

@techspaghetti Ah, that can be annoying with the pictures. You can attach pictures to tweets w/ buffer. Example: https://twitter.com/gogocommunity/statu ... 2712890368
