Agorapulse bills per user, and every extra user costs exactly what the first one does. On the Professional plan billed annually, that’s $119 a month for one person and $595 a month for five, and those five people still share the same 10 social profiles, so adding a teammate raises the bill without adding room for more accounts. There’s also no free plan<\/a>, so even a solo account starts at $79 a month, billed annually.<\/p>\n

The features you might want next are priced higher too. Bulk scheduling and competitor benchmarking are on Advanced, and multi-step approvals are only on the quote-only Custom plan.<\/p>\n

None of that makes Agorapulse a bad tool. Its inbox is one of the better ones in this category, so the real question is fit. This list compares 13 Agorapulse alternatives for solo creators juggling several platforms, small and midsize businesses, agencies managing client accounts, and enterprises that need advanced workflows. For each one, you’ll see how it bills, how it compares with Agorapulse, and what you’d give up by switching.<\/p>\n

Overview of Agorapulse<\/h2>\n

I use Agorapulse solely for the inbox feature to keep track of my business social pages. It solves the problem of compiling my multiple business social inboxes in one place. The initial setup was easy, with no problems, and there’s great support if you need it.<\/p>\n

Here’s what each plan costs today, per user per month.<\/p>\n

Two details matter more than the headline number. The 10 profiles on each paid plan are shared by everyone on the account, so adding a teammate adds a seat charge but no extra profiles. There’s also no free tier. Agorapulse ended its free plan on July 6, 2026. Former free users were offered Archie, an AI-only plan for Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn where every post goes out through Archie. New accounts can still start with a 30-day free trial.<\/p>\n

Why Consider Agorapulse Alternatives?<\/h2>\n

Most people who leave Agorapulse like its inbox. They leave because of how the plans are priced and packaged. These are the six reasons that come up most.<\/p>\n

1. Integration Limitations<\/h3>\n

Agorapulse connects with HubSpot, Salesforce, Looker Studio, Slack and Microsoft Teams, but not every connector is on every plan. If the one you need sits a tier higher, you pay that upgrade for every user on the account.<\/p>\n

2. Pricing and Value<\/h3>\n

This is the main reason people look for cheaper Agorapulse alternatives. According to Agorapulse’s help centre<\/a>, “each additional user is charged at the same rate as the first user<\/strong>“, so the bill grows with every person you add.<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Users<\/strong><\/td>\nStandard ($79)<\/strong><\/td>\nProfessional ($119)<\/strong><\/td>\nAdvanced ($149)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1<\/td>\n$79\/mo<\/td>\n$119\/mo<\/td>\n$149\/mo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3<\/td>\n$237\/mo<\/td>\n$357\/mo<\/td>\n$447\/mo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5<\/td>\n$395\/mo<\/td>\n$595\/mo<\/td>\n$745\/mo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n

All the above rates are applicable on annual plans.<\/p>\n

Bulk scheduling, publishing queues and saved replies are only on Advanced, so a five-person team that needs them pays $745 a month. See our Agorapulse pricing breakdown<\/a> to learn more about every plan.<\/p>\n

My only negative is that I wish adding profiles beyond 10 was not priced as high as it is. Adding a couple at that price is not terrible, but when you need to add 8 or 9, it can get costly.<\/p>\n

3. Advanced Analytics and Reporting<\/h3>\n

Ads reports, ROI reports and competitor benchmarking are on Advanced, and Advanced Listening and Competitive Benchmarking are sold as add-ons.<\/strong> Data history is also capped: 6 months on Standard, 12 on Professional and 24 on Advanced, so a year-over-year report is out of reach on the lower plans.<\/p>\n

4. Team Collaboration and Approval Workflows<\/h3>\n

Inbox assignments start on Professional, and shared calendars and labels on Advanced. Multi-step approvals, custom roles and SSO are only on Custom, which is quote-only. Every reviewer who needs a login is also another paid seat.<\/p>\n

It works well overall, but could get much better with more user-friendly features for multi-account management (bulk editing, previews, smarter inbox tools).<\/p>\n

5. Scalability Issues<\/h3>\n

Every plan below Custom includes 10 social profiles in total, shared by all users, and extra profiles cost $10 a month each billed annually, or $15 monthly. An agency with four clients on three networks each already needs 12. As you grow, you pay more for seats and for profiles at the same time.<\/p>\n

Our current subscription package would be cancelled in less than a month, and that we would be placed on another one that would effectively double our monthly fees.<\/p>\n

6. Reporting Customization<\/h3>\n

Branded report exports are included from Standard, which is more than many tools offer at the entry level. But ads, ROI and benchmarking reports need Advanced, and the data-history limits cap how far back any report can go. If clients expect a year-in-review, every person building it needs an Advanced seat.<\/p>\n
