The report card
Best for publishing for multi-location brands and franchises
MavSocial covers publishing, a shared inbox, review replies and ads, pitched at franchises and multi-location brands. The $24 plan is one user with 10 profiles, and approvals, permissions and ads management only come in once you reach the $208 and $333 plans, which are sold through a demo.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | $24 a month on yearly billing for 1 user and 10 profiles ($29 monthly), at the category middle of $24.99. The step to a team is steep: $65 for 3 users, then $208 for 5. |
| Free plan and trial | C | No free plan. A 14-day trial needs no card. |
| Features | C | Publishing, queues, calendar, inbox, reviews, listening and reports. The listing shows where it stops: approvals start at Business and ads management at Enterprise. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. Accounts to connect, queues and a calendar to build, and the upper plans go through a demo. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web plus iOS and Android apps, with Google Business Profile, Bitly and Google Analytics connections. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who MavSocial is for
- Fits if you run several franchise or branch pages and want reviews and posts in one place
- Works for a lone social manager on the single-user plan
Who it is not for
- Not for you if you want a free plan; it's a 14-day trial only
- Too light for teams on the $24 plan, which is one user
- Pricey if you need approvals or permissions, which start at Business, $208 a month on yearly billing
- Watch out: ads management starts at Enterprise at $333 a month and up, and Business and Enterprise are sold through a demo
Good to know
Good for
- Franchises and multi-location brands with many profiles
- Agencies that need approval workflows and white-label output
- Teams that want publishing, inbox and ads in one platform
Worth knowing
- Business and Enterprise are sold through a demo request, not a self-serve checkout.
- Approvals and permission management start at Business, and ads management starts at Enterprise.
- Profile and user counts are fixed by plan; extra profiles cost $6 a month and extra users $20 a month on Business when billed annually.
- The $24 annual rate is shown on the page as two months free compared with monthly billing.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace MavSocial you would be making one mailbox that several people work at once. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $288 a year.
What you could make
- Calendar, reports, review collection, rSS reader and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- One mailbox that several people work at once.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn among them.
What this rests on. MavSocial’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
