      • add a follower growth line graph for multiple Twitter accounts

        The "Follower Growth Aggregate" graph in the analytics is not very useful for tracking your Twitter competitors. I would rather see multiple accounts as individual, criss-crossing growth lines over time, not as aggregated stacked lines, so that I can compare our competitors' Twitter followings relative to ours.

        • Let me see who has liked posts on Facebook

            We’ll examine further ways users can view who liked a post without them being redirected outside of HootSuite.

          • Allow Posting to *any* Facebook Album - Other Products Can!

            I have looked thru the answers and Hootsuite states the Facebook API does not allow for posting to [diferent] albums. However, other products are able to do this, Postcron (http://www.postcron.com) for example provides a list of all Facebook albums in a simple select box when creating a post. Clearly there has been an update to the API...

            • Option to Add Notes to Tweets

              The option of being able to add notes to tweets would be useful. Although we utilize the assign feature, there are times when people on our team have already seen the tweet prior to it being assigned.

              • Click to login to specific social network

                It'd be nice to have a button to login to a selected social network. Something like a social network login directory.

                  Hi there!

                  If you’d like to add a social network, you can do so through the Add Social Network button. If I’m misunderstanding what you are looking to do, can you further explain?

                  Sincerely,

                  Sarah | @HootSuite_Help | HootSuite Help Desk – http://ow.ly/dBnBz

                • Support Microsoft ID (live_Id) for authentification

                  Microsoft ID is a very common way to be identified on a Windows devices.
                  Could be great to support this identity federation feature.

                    • Retweet from Pinned Social Network Account

                      It would be awesome if there was an option in settings > preferences that when a user hits "retweet," the pinned social network account (main company one) will appear in the social network selector along with the profile the retweet is coming from. For a company that manages over 60 branded social networking sites, with half of them being twitter sites, this would be a powerful option enabling efficiency and speed re-tweeting.

                      • Look at updating the Instagram app (or statigram app) so that we can see @mentions (like you can through the News feed on the iPhone app).

                        At this time we cannot search for @mentions meaning we're missing a large amount of opportunities. This is a pretty big issue can it be addressed?

                          • abbility to add streams across multiple profiles within an account

                            For many of my profiles I realize that I need to see pending posts for all of them however to be able to add that stream I have to go to each individual profile to add that stream. Instead make it so that you can set default streams throughout all profiles that you can remove individually if needed.

                              Hi Bill! Have you seen the publisher function? On www.hootsuite.com you can open the Publisher function to see all of your pending tweets for any of the social networks on your account. Let me know if this gets what you need, or what more you would like to do. :)

                              Thanks!

                            • Message with Title when the social network can use it

                              Some social networks can use titles, and when we have messages to send.. we cannot send titles which is not good in Linkedin Groups for example.

                                I inadvertently posted several photos that are the same...although the tweets have been scheduled for later, the photos are showing up immediately in my album on ow.ly....i want to delete these additional copies but i don't see an option for that. It would be awesome to offer that option!

                                    • Combine the "compose message" and "click to select a profile" windows

                                      When composing a tweet, the accounts used are displayed in a seperate part of the screen/hootlet. It's also not clear for me as a new user whether the account is active or not. Would be better with a green checkmark in the "select profile" but best if both windows would be combined like TweetDeck does.

                                      • create different sharing options for small groups than having to create an Organization

                                        My concern is that someone has to create an organization and teams just to share a couple of streams. Creating organizations and teams is fine for large organizations, or companies that do business around the world. But when you work for a not-for-profit where only two to three people share social media responsibilities, creating an organization and teams seems onerous. There should be a simpler solution for very small teams - something that allows us to create simple sharing and ability to post and respond to posts. Moreover, there is little information on Hootsuite about where you find the streams…

                                          We’ll examine ways to make organizations, and sharing within organizations, more user-friendly for small teams.

                                        • Lymbix Tool to analyze sentiment not suitable

                                          The Twitter Sentiment Tool is full of bugs.

                                          - Running the same search returns different results

                                          - Results remain identical even if activity was clearly different
