HootSuite continues to build on its reputation as the leading social media tool with the announcement of its Apps Directory platform for Pro and Enterprise level users. The HootSuite App Directory platform is live with YouTube, Flickr, Tumblr and Get Satisfaction apps. Now all HootSuite Pro and Enterprise users can share, manage and upload to these content sharing networks. These integrations further expand the HootSuite eco-system and enhance the dashboard’s capabilities as a social media management system. HootSuite basic users will have access to the social content in the near future as well.
Quick And Easy To Use
On its blog the company writes: “It’s quick and easy to install apps and add them as streams to your dash. Simply login to HootSuite and navigate to “Tools” –> “App Directory” to install apps. You can then add app streams to any tab in your dash via the “Add Stream” button – just as you would for other social networks in the HootSuite dash.
The HootSuite App Directory provides a platform for external, third party developers to extend the capabilities of the HootSuite dash by building custom integrations. Each app in the HootSuite App Directory is built and maintained by a HootSuite-approved external third party – and in some cases the platform/provider themselves – like David Dmytryshyn from Synaptive who developed the YouTube and Flickr apps for HootSuite, and Mahesh Asolkarwho created the Tumblr app. Are you a developer with an idea for an app?
