Get started with Hootsuite Business and Enterprise

Welcome to your Hootsuite Business or Enterprise plan! With this plan, you can enable team collaboration, streamline workflows, and efficiently manage your social accounts with team members or clients. Your plan also allows you to do the following:

  • Share feeds of content (streams) from your connected social accounts so your team members can monitor the same content.
  • Delegate tasks to team members and save time by sharing the workload.
