Hootsuite is a social media management tool, and a mature one. We are the wider system the posts are only one output of.
Hootsuite Standard is $99 per user per month billed annually, covering up to 10 social accounts. Professional is $199 per user per month and Advanced is $399 per user per month, both with unlimited accounts. Enterprise is quoted individually.
We are £299 a month on a 24-month term, or £329 on 12 months, with a one-off onboarding fee, and we do not charge per user.
The per-user model is the thing to watch. Hootsuite prices per seat, so a three-person team on Professional is three times the headline. Our price does not move with headcount. Prices were checked against the vendor’s own published pricing page on 27 August 2026 and are quoted in the currency they publish. Vendors change pricing without notice, so check theirs before deciding.
Listening, monitoring streams, approval workflows and social analytics are more mature than ours. For a social team running large-scale listening, that matters.
Multi-stage approvals and role permissions are built for organisations with a dedicated social function.
Scheduling assumes you already have posts. Our subscription includes AI ad creative and video, so the calendar is filled rather than waiting on you.
A unified inbox with a 24/7 AI receptionist covering DMs, WhatsApp, email, forms and missed calls, replying and booking rather than only surfacing.
Posts, replies, leads and bookings sit on one customer record with the CRM, so a DM that becomes a booking is traceable.
Adding a team member does not change your bill.
We run a free audit of how your social currently runs. Who produces the content, how fast DMs and comments get answered, whether anything downstream of a post is tracked, and what you pay per seat today.
You get a clear breakdown of what's working, what's leaking, and what it would cost to fix. Takes about 20 minutes on a video call. No obligation, and you keep the findings either way.
If you want us to build it, plans start at £299/month on a 24-month term (£329 on 12 months) plus a one-off onboarding fee that covers the actual build work.
When you have a social media team who need listening, monitoring streams and multi-stage approvals, and you already have people producing the content. Hootsuite does that job well and we are not trying to replace it for those teams.
When nobody is producing the content, or when DMs and comments go unanswered because there is no one watching the inbox. A scheduler cannot fix an empty calendar or an unanswered message.
Only if you compare scope. Hootsuite Standard at $99 per user is cheaper than us for scheduling alone. It becomes a different comparison once you add a creative source, an answering service and a CRM, which is what our price covers.
Eight stable channels: Meta, which is Facebook and Instagram, TikTok, YouTube covering Shorts and long-form, X, LinkedIn for both pages and personal, Pinterest and Threads. Bluesky is early access with manual scheduling only.
Yes. DMs, comments and mentions arrive in one inbox and can be answered automatically using your brand voice rules, with one-tap handoff to a human at any point.
You can, though the overlap is large. If you keep Hootsuite for listening, we would usually suggest not paying us for scheduling as well.
Plans start at £299 a month on a 24-month term, or £329 on 12 months, plus a one-off onboarding fee that covers the build work. Full detail is on our pricing page.
