Last year Twitter purchased Tweetdeck and essentially drove it into the ground. Thus, the last six months have been very fruitful for its competitors.
The one to profit the most from this has been Hootsuite. They have grown by 1 million users in 6 months unlike the the slower 2 million users in the first 32 months of its existence.
Here is a closer look at their success:

What social media platform do you use to be an effective networker?
Dustin W. Stout says
I use Hootsuite sparingly. I really love what they’ve done, but it’s in need of some fresh UI/UX updates as well as Google+ integration for everyone.
I mostly use the specific platforms (Google+, Twitter, Facebook) to post respectively. I find that it’s better to use the actual platform when you can because it allows you to fully utilize functionality. Things don’t always translate 100% from Hootsuite.
But as far as scheduling posts in advance, Hootsuite is my weapon of choice for Facebook & Twitter.
