Bottom line
Meta Business Suite is the pick for small businesses and creators focused only on Facebook and Instagram, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan. Sendible fits agencies and freelancers managing social for multiple clients better, and it reaches X (Twitter) and LinkedIn among others, which Meta Business Suite doesn't.
Meta Business Suite is free, with no paid plan, and Sendible starts at $35 a month. Sendible adds evergreen recycling and bulk upload that Meta Business Suite leaves out.
