Which one is for you
Pick Localo if
- Fits if you own one local business and want a weekly list of fixes for your Google profile
- Works for freelancers and agencies managing up to 120 client profiles in any country
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: Pro plans connect more profiles than they optimize, so Pro 10 connects 10 but optimizes 5
- Watch out: plans renew automatically without a reminder, and there's no free plan after the 14-day trial
- Tight if you want an account manager, as one only comes from Pro 30 at $149 a month
- Pricey if you manage more than 120 client profiles, where the price is a custom quote
- Skip it if you want a desktop or phone app, as Localo runs in the browser only
Pick theStacc if
- Fits if you run a local business and want Google profile posts and review replies drafted
- Works for agencies handling local SEO for several clients under one login
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if the blog is what you want, as Blog SEO is $82 a month yearly, double the Local SEO module
- Watch out: the terms call the trial a first month, while the site advertises 3 days free
- Tight if you pay monthly, since monthly software plans can't be refunded
- Watch out: each module is priced on its own, and the page says to confirm any bundle price in your account
- Pricey if you want it done for you, as Growth Complete has a 3-month minimum of $3,897

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.
