Do you say "Bueno escuchar" in Spanish?

Sometimes, if one person gives some good news or even says "I am doing well" in English, the other person says "Good to hear". What do Spanish-speaking people say that is like saying "Good to hear". I would like to hear from both Spaniards and Latin Americans. Thanks in advance.

Además mi querida vikinga, estoy seguro de que tú sabes más que nadie que con esta frase se podría usar "oír" también ¿verdad que sí? - 005faa61, Oct 23, 2013

I just say '' ¡ Estupendo!'' or '' ¡Que buenas noticias!''

Are there milder terms? - Raja-jani, Oct 23, 2013
You can adjust the tone to make it mild or excited. But ¡Que buenas noticias! is common. - gringojrf, Oct 23, 2013

I still need clarification. Do you ever say "Bueno saber"? Is it correct to say "Me alegro saber" without adding any more words?

You can say "bueno saber" if you want, but it sounds unnatural. "Me alegro saber" alone is incomplete, but you could say "Me alegro saberlo" - 005faa61, Oct 23, 2013
Thank you, Julian. It's clear now. Me alegro saberlo. - Raja-jani, Oct 23, 2013
