Loomly walks you through making a post: a calendar of suggested ideas, optimization tips per network, and a mockup that shows how the post will look on each one before it goes through an approval round. It charges flat, quota-bundled tiers with no free plan, just a 15-day trial, and the jump from the $65 Starter to the $332 Beyond is steep.

Bottom line
Loomly is the pick for teams and agencies that need approval rounds and client sign-off. Iconosquare fits teams evaluating scheduled report delivery better, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan.
A verified price comparison requires the same billing term, currency and eligible workload. See each pricing section for the published terms. Iconosquare adds a visual feed planner and competitor tracking that Loomly leaves out.

- Unlimited users and calendars
- Everything in Beyond, plus priority support and pricing at scale
- Flat, quota-bundled tiers: each plan includes a fixed number of social accounts and users, and you move up a plan rather than buying accounts or seats one at a time. Loomly dropped its old four-tier lineup (Base, Standard, Advanced, Premium) for two paid plans plus Enterprise.
- There is no free plan, only a 15-day free trial of the top features, no card required.
- Annual billing is a flat 25% off: Starter works out to $49 a month ($588/yr) and Beyond to $249 ($2,988/yr).
- The gap between Starter and Beyond is the main gripe: if you outgrow 12 accounts or 3 users there is no mid-tier and no a-la-carte top-up, so the next step is $332 a month.
- Nonprofits get a 50% lifetime discount with documentation.
