Where each one falls short

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

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

Spotify

  • Ad-free listening, offline downloads, lossless audio and unlimited skipping all require Premium at $12.99 a month
  • Lossless streaming tops out at 24-bit/44.1 kHz
  • The Duo plan at $18.99 a month covers two people and the Family plan at $21.99 covers a household, with no per-seat option between them
