Manage your social channels from a user-friendly platform without limits

With ContentStudio, you can organize all your brands, projects and/or clients with separate workspaces; assign the relevant team, connect brand specific social accounts, create specialized news feeds and avoid cluttering and confusion. Connect brand specific social accounts and blog sites, customize your subscription package to suit your requirements and meet with the ever dynamic market demands at menial costs.

Free analytics and social inbox

You do not get Social Media Analytics with Buffer plans, it is a separately charged feature. As a fundamental for marketing, ContentStudio provides this feature for no additional cost. So generate those KPI’s, white-label your reports for your clients and use our social inbox to keep engaged with viewers. Connect with your audience from various platforms all from one place, profile your visitors into custom groups, and assign team members to manage conversations. ContentStudio gives you maximum control of your channels, with detailed statistics.

Content automation

You can reduce your workloads greatly with ContentStudio. With Content Automation, you can design recipes that make ContentStudio search for curated Content from over 4 million directories for your Blogs or Social Accounts. After that you just need to set a schedule for the automation and save it. Now your recipe will find your specified content from all over the web and publish it to your accounts.

Workspace and team collaboration - buffer alternative

Workspaces and team collaboration

Giving team members essential tasks keeps a group synchronized and your work refined; ContentStudio gives you a fully stacked toolbox for this. Ensure each of your brands have their own optimised crew by enlisting members to each workspace. You can also add your clients as approvers for your work, whether they have an account or not, saving you time and ensuring that your content meets their standards. An integrated approval workflow means that all stakeholders(including the client) can review the planned content before publishing.

Content discovery and advanced planner

Pricing Comparison

(so much more for the same price)

With ContentStudio, your clients and work will be organized with each client having a specified team working with them using workspaces. As an alternative to buffer, you can manage your team and work for each client by tagging/assigning tasks to your teams, while also ensuring team coordination with live comments on assigned tasks. Superior management and organization for all your needs with ContentStudio as your Buffer Alternative.

While both ContentStudio and Buffer cost the same at $99/month, going for an annual subscription reduces the monthly cost for ContentStudio to $79/month while Buffer goes down to $85/month.

ContentStudio allows an unlimited amount of posts to be queued. Not only that, ContentStudio has designed an interactive planner with features to simplify handling your schedule. Being a Buffer Alternative, ContentStudio also offers you analytics without any hidden charges as your right to your data. You are also given access to our Content Automation feature that keeps your work on autopilot mode using powerful recipes.

If you already have a content marketing specialist and only need a simple and basic app from which your specialist manages 3 of your accounts for free, then buffer is also an interesting option.

However, buffer does not give you additional features without a price tag. If you want an analysis or a report of how your accounts are performing on every platform you need to make a separate surcharge of $35/month. If you want to white label your reports as your own that comes to a total of $50/month.

If you want to queue more than 10 posts you need to upgrade your price plan to a higher one. If you have more than 3 social channels you need to subscribe to a more expensive plan.

While these features add on to a higher monthly rate, you are still bottle necked with missing features that would otherwise reduce and simplify your workload greatly.
