Where each one falls short

Brandwatch

  • No pricing is published for any solution or tier
  • No cost driver, minimum or contract length is stated on the pricing page
  • The only route to a figure is scheduling a demo

Loomly

  • Starter plan caps at 12 social accounts and 3 users; unlimited users require the Beyond plan at $332 per month billed monthly
  • Yearly plans are charged upfront with a 12-month commitment and no early termination option
  • Enterprise-level access above 60 social accounts is quote only
  • Downgrades only take effect at the end of the current billing cycle, so an unwanted higher tier is billed through its term
