Bottom line
Airtable is the pick for teams that want a custom content calendar and planning hub, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan. OneUp fits power users publishing to many networks at once better, and it reaches Instagram and LinkedIn among others, which Airtable doesn't.
Airtable has a free plan and paid plans from $20 per billable collaborator a month, billed yearly, and OneUp starts at $15 a month, billed yearly. They bill on different units, so the real gap depends on how much you run. OneUp adds social listening and a social inbox that Airtable leaves out.
