Sprout SocialPrice
Buffer+ Extremely simple and clean interface; easiest social tool to learn
+ Channel-based pricing is transparent and affordable for small teams
- Feature set is basic compared to Hootsuite or Sprout Social
“Buffer is the anti-Hootsuite. It does less, but what it does, it does perfectly. I schedule a week of posts in 15 minutes.”
+ Best-in-class social analytics and reporting; presentation-ready reports out of the box
+ Smart Inbox unifies all social conversations in one view
- Very expensive; $199/seat/mo puts it out of reach for most small businesses
“Sprout Social's reports are the only ones I can send directly to executives without reformatting. Worth the price for teams that need to prove social ROI.”
