About the social media scheduling category
Scheduling subscriptions use different billing units: channels, seats, social-profile sets or brands. A starting rate does not give a comparable team total. These records also differ in inbox, approval, reporting and listening functions.
How to choose: buying criteria for social media scheduling
Count brands, social profiles, editors and approvers. List the platforms and post formats you need, then check queue limits, approval steps, report exports and inbox access. Ask which functions require a higher tier or add-on.
