Thanks so much for your responses. I would be using it to manage clients' social media presence across platforms.

Ive used both and it depends what you are looking for.
Sprout Social
- Nicer Interface
- Better reports and engaging
- Geo-targeting
But no bulk uploading.
Hootsuite
- bulk uploading
- cheaper
- more social media channels
But no geo-targetting or gating posts (only enterprise version)

I have personally used Hootesuite and Sprout Social also seems a promising tool to me!
If you are asking for normal Social Media management tool which does not required any advance feature then my idea is to take a trial version of both tools and see what fits your need and if both tools can get your work done, just check the prices and make the decision (No Rocket Science).

Hell Netlover,
Its hard to say what is better depending on your needs. But one aspect to consider is the cost. Hootsuite offers a great individual plan http://signup.hootsuite.com/plans-cc/ with which a lot can be accomplished for free. Sprout Social on the other hand, has a free trial, but all plans include fees: https://sproutsocial.com/pricing. From my use of both Sprout is more advanced tool for advanced social media analysis, and study.
Hope this helps, and what are some tasks you are looking to accomplish?

Hey can anyone recommend a tools out there, which can look at a list of urls (over 20+) and it will show the social stats for each url (e.g. number of Facebook Shares, Tweets, etc)?

Is it possible to get high page ranking with no social media activity?
I'm curious to know how much social media effects the chances of being more highly ranked on Google. I appreciate it's important to 'be seen' by Google, but if articles/newsletters are being written, does it really matter if a business isn't using Twitter or Facebook, etc?

Benefits and cons of hosting video content vs hosting via youtube
Hi if a site is hosting its own videos (not embedding them on youtube) is there less benefits then getting youtube to host it, and then embedding the youtube video. For instance: For benefits such as building channel authority, easy to rank the video in the search engines hosted on youtube, better opportunity to increase visitors and traffic and higher chance for the video to spread and rank for the keyword when hosted on youtube. What do you guys think?

Incentivisation Strategies for Social Sharing of Product Pages
Hey, What are some great tips for gaining social shares on ecommerce product or category pages? I understand great images and video will go along way, but it's difficult on a large scale ecommerce store. Receiving an offer for sharing something is great - I honestly cant think of a way to track this strategy in a large scale manner. I can send an email after a purchase making an offer to go back to the page to share, but how would I track this? Thanks.
