The short version

Only Pinterest has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
Each has a real cost: Agorapulse standard, Professional and Advanced tiers all cap at 10 connected social profiles; unlimited profiles require the custom-priced tier; Pinterest engagement skews heavily toward planning and browsing rather than real-time interaction, so it is a poor fit for time-sensitive announcements or breaking content.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Agorapulse

Standard, Professional and Advanced tiers all cap at 10 connected social profiles; unlimited profiles require the custom-priced tier
Additional social profiles beyond the plan limit cost $10 to $15 per month each
Monthly billing runs noticeably higher than the quoted annual rate, for example $99 per month monthly versus $79 per month paid annually on Standard

Engagement skews heavily toward planning and browsing rather than real-time interaction, so it is a poor fit for time-sensitive announcements or breaking content.
Organic reach for businesses without a paid budget has declined as the feed increasingly favours advertising and algorithmic recommendation over follower-based distribution.
The user base skews demographically narrow, concentrated among women and higher-income users in several markets, which limits its usefulness for brands needing broad reach.
Ad pricing is auction based with no published flat rate, so campaign cost is unpredictable and can rise sharply during high-demand seasonal periods.
Content moderation and misinformation controls have lagged some competitors, and health and wellness misinformation pinned to boards has been a recurring problem the company has had to address after the fact.
