The short version

  • Only Wrike has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Surfer SEO entry Discovery plan at $49 per month limits users to a single seat and 120 documents; Wrike seats are sold in blocks rather than singly: groups of 5 up to 30 seats, groups of 10 up to 100, and groups of 25 above that, so adding one person can mean paying for five
