Free tier vs paid: where the break-even sits
Most schedulers' free plans are real. Know when to upgrade.
Free (Buffer 3 channels, Publer 3, Metricool 1 brand)
✔ Enough for a solo brand on 1-3 networks
✖ Caps on scheduled posts, no analytics history, no team seats
Paid ($6-25/month)
✔ More channels, bulk upload, analytics retention, approvals
✖ Per-channel pricing compounds fast
— Best for: Free until you hit either 4+ channels or need 90-day analytics. Paid the moment a teammate joins.
Verdict: Pick free longer than you think — upgrade for a specific blocker (channels, history, seats), not FOMO.
