Pros
Love having everything in one window, feeds and searches. Tools are easy to find and use
Cons
None, still love the app after many modifications and updates
Pros
NONE (Unless you REALLY LIKE your browser CONSUMING TONS OF MEMORY)
Cons
I DO NOT like BROWSER based applications. They take up A NEEDLESS tab. Plus if the browser crashes - GUESS WHAT - SO DOES TWEETDECK !!!
Summary
Whoever at Twitter thought moving TweetDeck to a BROWSER based application OBVIOUSLY has NO FREAKIN' CLUE as to how Social Media works
ARE THESE PEOPLE NOT AWARE of the sheer number of ALTERNATIVE Twitter clients out there WHICH ARE standalone AND do JUST AS GOOD of a job as TweetDeck does as a browser-based application ?? Obviously not
Pros
Allows users to read news feeds, reply to messages and comments, schedule posts, and more.
Cons
Twitter only, which might seem to be a limitation.
Summary
Nice free tool to manage an unlimited number of accounts on Twitter. There might be way more elaborated tools, but if you need managing Twitter only, TweetDeck is a great way to go. There's also a web-based app.
Pros
It's a reminder of what TweetDeck once was
Cons
It's a bad reminder of what TweetDeck once was
Summary
TweetDeck was a rock-star, but now its desktop version is dying. I personally switched to BuzzBundle a couple of months ago and it's a perfect alternative to TweetDeeck.
Pros
Not one pro I can find for the new tweetdeck.
Cons
The worst. Where is the simplicity? Everything was one stop update, now everyone wants to separate. No good.
Summary
If it wasn't broken why fix it? People are so over the top and forget the simplicity of why something was working in the first place.
Pros
It is now apparent to everyone that Twitter hates its users.
Cons
This version of Tweetdeck is an abomination. Please just kill the program and put it out of its misery. Inferior to the previous version in every way.
Pros
Well it is free
Cons
Very few user options
you cannot paste text into tweets you have to type each one
Summary
If Twitter hated TweetDeck so much why did they just quit putting it out instead of degrading it more with each version upgrade ?
There is less user options with each upgrade and the bells and whistles of the original TweetDeck are long gone.
Pros
Clean interface, multi-column list view keeps tweets organized
Cons
Before Twitter bought this, it was great. After, Twitter "enhanced" it and broke the block retweet function. Still broken for many, many months with no fix.
Summary
Track down the old version and stick with it. Some mildly useful updates don't make up for breaking a product, then not fixing it
Pros
It didn't crash or lock my PC.
Cons
I was hoping to find something for my PC as convenient and useful as Tweetcaster is on my Kindle Fire. So, I downloaded and tried Tweetdeck. One thing after another seemed to not work. Things that would logically be included weren't. The screen display is oversized and unmanageable.
The best software is logical and intuitive because the programmer(s) anticipated what capabilities you would want and when, and how you would use them. Tweetdeck, unfortunately, took me back to the bad old days of clunky, illogical software that doesn't justify the space it takes up or the time it takes to install and cope with its quirks and inadequacies.
After installing Tweetdeck, it was such a disappointment I thought maybe there had been a hiccup during installation. I uninstalled it, rebooted and reinstalled. I then gave the program another try. After thinking about it overnight, I uninstalled it.
Summary
If Tweetdeck's programmers happen by and read this, I challenge them to try Tweetcaster on a Kindle Fire or other Android tablet. Then, scrap what you've done and start over.
Pros
None. Not one. Twitter took the best twitter client & turned it into the worst.
Ability to see your followers tweets to other twitter members you don't follow? Gone!
Spellchecker? Gone!
Deck.ly? Gone!
Post update on enter? Gone!
Cons
Everything! I can't even get it to snap to half screen in windows 7. or even manually adjust it to fit half screen. No matter what you do it'll take up over half the screen. You can't right click. Yup. Try it! *Right click* nothing happens!
Summary
Every client that comes out that is better than the official twitter POS, twitter either gets it shut down, or buys it. & in the case of Tweetdeck they bought it & ruined it. You suck Twitter! Screw you!
Please Wait
