Our take
Hootsuite is a leading social media management platform that’s been around since the early days of this now-ballooning online sector. With over 18 million customers, and used by over four fifths of the Fortune 1000, this giant is hugely competitive in the space.
Thought Hootsuite's plans for an IPO didn't survive the tough economic conditions of 2022 (like many of its peers, the company engaged in several rounds of layoffs), it has since reworked its leadership team to get back on course as the economy recovers.
Just like its acquisition of Sparkcentral saw the company expand into customer service, its more recent purchase of Talkwalker sees it integrate AI into its platform. The combined offering will supply businesses with a social media performance engine to turn insights into action, all fuelled by artificial intelligence.
