  • Meta Business Suite is free. It only covers Meta's own networks, Facebook and Instagram, so there's no paid tier and no cost to weigh, just the limit of which networks it reaches.
  • Scheduling runs up to 75 days in advance, with a cap of about 25 scheduled posts a day per account.
  • It doubles as Meta's ads tool, so you can boost posts and run paid campaigns from the same place.

  • Scalable users and profiles, built with their team
  • Optional SSO, dedicated customer success, white label (from $790/mo with it)
  • Flat, quota-bundled tiers: each of the five plans includes a fixed number of users (each user is also a separate calendar) and social profiles, and you move up a plan as you outgrow the quota rather than buying seats or profiles one at a time.
  • You can also add a bundle of extra users and profiles without changing plan. On Creator a bundle is one more user and six more profiles for an extra $29 a month, taking the total to $58; the bundle size and price vary by plan.
  • White labelling (your own branded dashboard and domain) is a paid add-on on Advanced and Enterprise. With it, Advanced starts at $315 a month and Enterprise at $790.
  • There is no free plan, only a 14-day trial; no card to start, and you add one to keep going at the end.
  • Annual billing is a flat 15% off, shown on the page as a 'save $X a year' figure, so Creator works out to about $25 a month, Scale to $170, and Enterprise to $638. Nonprofits get 15% off monthly or 25% off annual.
  • Prices are USD read off the live pricing page, which renders client-side and defaults to USD with a currency selector (it does not geo-price to local currency). Monthly and annual figures were read by toggling the billing switch and cross-checked against current third-party 2026 listings.

Pros and cons

Meta Business Suite

  • Direct publishing of posts, Reels, and Stories
  • Shared inbox for Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp
  • Built-in ad management and audience insights
  • Only covers Facebook and Instagram
  • No evergreen recycling, bulk upload, or advanced reporting
  • No real listening, and only Page benchmarking
  • Interface can be clunky

Sendible

  • Genuinely agency-shaped: white label, Client Connect onboarding, client dashboards, approvals
  • Five tiers plus add-on bundles, so scaling up is smoother than a two-plan lineup
  • Smart Queues recycle evergreen content, and Monitoring covers keyword and mention tracking
  • Direct publishing to nine networks, including Threads and Bluesky
  • No free plan, and a 14-day trial is the only way in
  • Pinterest has faded and Instagram DMs aren't in the inbox
  • Several features have been sunset over the years (content suggestions, review monitoring)
  • Listening and competitor analysis are thin next to the bigger suites
