The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Brand24 mention quotas are hard caps, and once a project exhausts its monthly allowance collection stops and that period of data is permanently lost rather than being throttled or backfilled.; Statusbrew plans cap both seats and social profiles, so an agency with many small clients hits the profile ceiling well before the user ceiling and is pushed to a tier it does not otherwise need.
  • They diverge on capability: Brand24 covers Mention monitoring, Statusbrew covers Publishing and scheduling.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Brand24

  • Mention quotas are hard caps, and once a project exhausts its monthly allowance collection stops and that period of data is permanently lost rather than being throttled or backfilled.
  • Keyword counts are tight at the lower tiers, so tracking your brand plus three competitors plus two product names already exceeds the Individual plan before you have added a misspelling.
  • Historical data on signup is limited, so a new project starts from roughly the date you created it and cannot reconstruct a past incident you actually wanted to analyse.
  • Sentiment classification is weaker on languages other than English and on short informal posts, which produces misleading trend lines in markets where most conversation is not in English.
  • Coverage of closed and semi-closed platforms is thin because of API restrictions, so categories whose conversation lives in private groups or Discord servers will look far quieter than they are.

Statusbrew

  • Plans cap both seats and social profiles, so an agency with many small clients hits the profile ceiling well before the user ceiling and is pushed to a tier it does not otherwise need.
  • Listening is limited to Premium and above and is keyword monitoring rather than a full listening dataset, so a brand that needs historical share of voice will still buy a second tool.
  • Moderation rules are keyword and sentiment based, which means sarcasm and coded language slip through while legitimate comments containing a blocked word get hidden, and someone must audit the rule set regularly.
  • Analytics retention is capped at 18 months even on paid tiers, so year-on-year comparisons beyond that require exporting data yourself before it ages out.
  • Network coverage depends entirely on the platform APIs, and features such as Instagram direct message handling or ad comment access change without notice when Meta adjusts permissions, occasionally breaking a workflow the plan was bought for.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Brand24: What happens when I hit the mention limit?

Collection stops for that project until the next billing cycle or until you upgrade. The mentions that occurred in the gap are not recovered later.

Statusbrew: Can it moderate comments on paid ads?

Yes, and that is the main reason to choose it. Rules can hide or delete comments on ad posts as well as organic ones.

Brand24: Does it include historical data?

Only limited backfill. Projects effectively start collecting from the date you create them, so set up keywords before you need the data.

Statusbrew: How much is it really?

89, 179 and 299 US dollars per month on monthly billing for Lite, Standard and Premium, dropping to 69, 129 and 229 on annual. Agency pricing starts at 49 per client per month.

Brand24: How many users can I add?

Every plan except Individual has unlimited users, which makes read-only distribution across a team cheap.

Statusbrew: Does the Lite plan work for a small agency?

No. One user and five profiles covers roughly one client. Agencies should price the dedicated agency plan against the per-client count.

Brand24: Is monthly billing worth it?

It costs roughly 50 to 100 US dollars more per month per tier. Annual saves up to 20 per cent, and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee on standard plans.

Statusbrew: Is there a free plan?

No, only a 14-day trial without a card.
