How we grade them
| 2.2GPAAgorapulseFair | 1.8GPAPromoRepublicWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DStandard is $79 a user a month billed yearly with 10 profiles, so two people pay $158 a month and three $237. That puts it in this category's dearest tenth, which starts at $99. The inbox and ROI reports are what you're paying for. | CNo price is published: Build, Grow and Enterprise are all sold by quote, so there's nothing to set against the category's middle of $24.99. |
| Free plan and trial | CThe free plan was withdrawn on July 6, 2026. What's left is a 30-day trial with no card, and a free Archie AI plan that only creates posts through Archie, for four networks. | FNothing free and no trial listed on the pricing page. |
| Features | BAn inbox with moderation rules and Google reviews, a shared calendar, approvals on every plan, ROI reports and an MCP server. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the core job, though full X management and listening are add-ons. | CPublishing, AI Composer and Assistant, reviews, listings and analytics. Gaps per the listing: listings start on Grow, and AI Agents and white-label app on Enterprise. |
| Ease of use | CThere's no App Store rating on record for us to go by, and you'll connect profiles and set up moderation rules to get the most from it. So it gets the ordinary grade. | CNo store rating on record. A multi-location platform with brand assets and locations to set up. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Canva, Google Analytics, Bitly, Zapier, HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack and Microsoft Teams. No desktop app, which an A needs. | BWeb plus iOS and Android apps, with Canva, Google Analytics, Power BI and Google Business Profile connections. |
| Best for | teams buried in comments and DMs | local marketing for franchises and multi-location brands |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
