| Pricing | $79/month (Professional) or $758/year · free tier: 14-day free trial on all four tiers (Enterprise is request-a-demo); no permanent free plan verified | From €16/$20 per month (annual billing, Starter, up to 5 brands); €20/$25 monthly billing · free tier: Free forever: 1 brand, all networks except LinkedIn and X, up to 20 scheduled posts/month, 5 competitor profiles, 30 days of analytics, AI assistant (5 credits/brand/month), Metricool MCP |
| Pricing model | Subscription | Subscription (tiered by number of brands, plus paid add-ons) |
| Best for | Small-to-mid agencies and multi-location or franchise brands that need publishing plus third-party review management in one seat, publish to long-tail networks, and genuinely fit within 2–8 users. | Agencies and freelancers managing 5-50 client brands who need multi-network scheduling plus client-ready PDF/PPT and Looker Studio reporting at a low cost per account, and solo creators who want a capable free tier. |
| Avoid if | X (Twitter) is a primary channel, competitive listening is a core requirement, your team exceeds 8 contributors, you are a heavy AI user on a lower tier, or procurement requires documented security certification. | You are a multi-location or franchise business (one Google Business Profile per brand multiplies cost), an X/Twitter-centric team (per-account add-on, 30-day data cap), or an enterprise needing white-label and contractual SLAs, which sit behind an unpriced Custom plan. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
