How to choose a social media tool

Start with the networks. Make a list of every account you post to today and the ones you plan to add this year, then remove any tool that does not support all of them.

Next, work out your real cost. Some tools charge per channel, some per user and some per plan. Count your channels and the people who need to log in, then compare the total for that setup, not the starting price.

Then look at how work gets approved. If clients or managers sign off on posts, check whether approval is on the plan you can afford, and whether reviewers need their own paid seat.

Finally, think about what you connect. If you use automation tools or AI apps, check for a public API, webhooks and an MCP server. Try your top 2 choices on a free trial with the same week of posts before you decide.

You can also compare tools side by side, read fact-based reviews, or see Postozo pricing.
