Metricool Advanced: strongest multi-brand economics

If you can model each client as a brand, the entry Advanced tier covers up to 15 brands and adds agency-grade workflow plus data integrations.

SocialPilot Premium: simplest approval + branded-report package

Premium bundles two client-facing features many agencies buy separately: client approval and white-label reports.

Sendible Plus: strongest user economics

Sendible includes unlimited users on all plans. Plus adds approvals, so agencies with many internal users or client logins can find the per-user economics attractive even with fewer workspaces.

Buffer Team: good until channel count becomes the price driver

With eight channels, Team is $80/month on annual billing. With ten, it reaches $100. Agencies should calculate total connected channels before assuming Buffer is the cheapest option.
