Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Sendible
Scheduling with a client approval step built in
Sendible sits where an agency needs somebody outside the tool to sign off before a post goes out. Drafts route to a client, the client approves or comments, and only then does it publish, which is the workflow that keeps freelancers off email threads about a caption. The daily posting limit is per user and stated on every plan, so read that number before the price. It covers the usual networks and states which account types work on each.

SocialBee
Category-based scheduling for a steady mix
SocialBee organises the queue into content categories and posts from each in rotation, so the ratio of promotion to everything else is a setting rather than a good intention. Evergreen posts can be recycled on a schedule instead of being written again. There is an AI assistant for drafts and captions, and an agency-shaped side with client workspaces. The trial is two weeks on the Pro plan with no card, which is enough to see whether the category model fits how you plan.
