Bottom line

LinkedIn post scheduling is the pick for LinkedIn-only users who just want to queue the occasional post, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan. PostPlanify fits agencies with separate client workspaces better, and it reaches Instagram and Facebook among others, which LinkedIn post scheduling doesn't.

LinkedIn post scheduling is free, with no paid plan, and PostPlanify starts at $31 a month, billed yearly. PostPlanify adds bulk upload and a social inbox that LinkedIn post scheduling leaves out.
