Which one is for you

Pick RecurPost if

  • Fits if you want evergreen posts to keep going out without rewriting them
  • Works for freelancers pricing by number of accounts

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you need client approvals below the Agency plan
  • Tight if you pick Starter: 2 accounts, 10 posts per account per day, and extra accounts are $4 each
  • Watch out: Agency has 3 users, with teammates beyond that at $20 each
  • Watch out: yearly prices weren't shown in the page text we read

Pick SocialPilot if

  • Fits if a team of three wants an inbox and analytics for $42.50 a month billed yearly
  • Works for agencies that need client approvals and white-label reports, from Premium at $85

Look elsewhere if

  • Too light for anyone on Essentials: one user, and no inbox, analytics or approvals until Standard
  • Skip it if you want the API, since it's Enterprise only, with no published price
  • Not for you if you want a free plan, as there's only a 14-day trial
  • Pricey if you bulk schedule or need client approvals, which need Premium at $85 a month
  • Watch out: extra social accounts cost $4 a month each and extra users $5 each

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.
