Zilfu vs every other scheduler

Honest, sourced comparisons against the tools people actually shortlist us against. We concede the ones where a rival genuinely wins — you will find those on the pages themselves, not buried.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Hootsuite

Charges $99–$249 per user per month and has no free plan. Zilfu is flat from $19/mo with unlimited teammates.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Buffer

Bills per channel as you add accounts. Zilfu starts free, stays flat, and ships a REST API, MCP server and webhooks on every plan.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Later

Meters "social sets" — one profile per network — so a second Instagram costs about $25/mo more. Zilfu holds any mix of accounts.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Metricool

One profile per network per brand, +$10/mo per X account, approvals and API behind Advanced. Deeper analytics than us, though.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Sprout Social

Enterprise per-seat pricing from $199 a seat. Zilfu is one flat plan with approvals on every tier.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Sendible

Gates client approvals behind its $89 tier. Zilfu includes approvals and unlimited team members from $19/mo.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Agorapulse

Bills roughly $79 per seat with a 10-profile cap and approvals behind Professional. Zilfu caps neither seats nor reviewers.

Comparison

Zilfu vs SocialPilot

Approvals start at the $100/mo Premium tier, plus $4 per extra account and $5 per extra user. Zilfu bundles all three.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Publer

Bills $4–$7 per social account plus $2–$3 per member, with analytics and API on the Business rate. Zilfu is $19 for up to 10 accounts.

Comparison

Zilfu vs SocialBee

Caps users on cheaper plans, charges per social profile, and gates approvals behind $49. Zilfu does none of the three.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Loomly

Unlimited users only on the $249 Beyond tier, and every client counts against your seat cap. Zilfu reviewers are free.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Planoly

Instagram-first and priced per social set with paid seats. Zilfu holds several accounts per network on one flat plan.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Pallyy

About $10 for each extra social set and each extra user. Zilfu holds multiple accounts per network with unlimited team.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Vista Social

At $79 you get 15 profiles, 3 users and a $29/mo X add-on. Zilfu Business is 100 accounts, unlimited users, X included.

Comparison

Zilfu vs Planable

Charges $33–$49 per workspace, caps posts at 60–150, and sells analytics as an add-on. Zilfu has neither cap.

The three ways schedulers make a cheap plan expensive

Almost every comparison on this page comes down to one of three meters. Tools like Hootsuite, Sprout Social and Agorapulse bill per person, so the freelancer you hired for a month and the client who only wants to look both cost you money. Tools like Later, Planoly and Pallyy bill per account or "social set" — one profile per network — so a second Instagram means a second charge. And tools like Planable bill per workspace, which is the one that hurts agencies, because a workspace is exactly how you separate one client from the next.

Zilfu uses none of them. One flat plan holds several accounts per network, unlimited teammates, unlimited workspaces and client approvals, from $19/mo — and the free plan covers 2 accounts with no card. What changes between paid tiers is the account cap, nothing else.

How we write these

Every price and limit on these pages was checked against the rival's own pricing page, and each page carries the date it was last reviewed. Where a competitor is genuinely better we say so on their page rather than leaving it out — Metricool's analytics are deeper than ours, for one. Vendor pricing moves often, so check the current rate before you switch; if you spot something stale, tell us and we will fix it.

Not comparing us to anything in particular? Start with Zilfu for agencies if you run social for clients, or Zilfu for business if you run several accounts for one brand.
