Hootsuite is an enterprise social media suite - but it's expensive and doesn't support Farcaster, Bluesky, or Mastodon.
Hootsuite is one of the oldest social media management platforms, built for enterprise teams managing Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X. But it comes with enterprise pricing and doesn't support the platforms where creators and web3 communities actually live.
Crenel takes a different approach: a free, Farcaster-first crossposting tool built for creators who post across X, Farcaster, Bluesky, and Mastodon. Instead of paying hundreds per month for features you don't need, get exactly what you need - automatic crossposting and cross-platform publishing - completely free.
