## Is PostMesh a good Metricool alternative?

Metricool can cost less than PostMesh for a few brands, and PostMesh costs less when you run many accounts on one network. Metricool prices by brand, one profile per network: up to 5 brands are $25 a month and 10 are $45, billed monthly. PostMesh Creator is $29 a month for any 10 accounts and Growth is $49 for 50, where 50 brands on Metricool are $210. Metricool leans on analytics, with a free plan, an inbox and competitor tracking.

## What it costs each month

| Accounts | PostMesh | Metricool |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 3 accounts, one per network | $29/mo (Creator) | $0 or $25/mo (Free (1 brand, 20 posts a month, no LinkedIn or X) or Starter) |
| 10 accounts | $29/mo (Creator) | $25/mo (Starter: up to 5 brands, at most 5 accounts per network) |
| 10 Instagram accounts | $29/mo (Creator) | $45/mo (Starter: up to 10 brands) |
| 50 Instagram accounts | $49/mo (Growth) | $210/mo (Advanced: up to 50 brands) |

Monthly billing for both. A Metricool brand holds one profile per network, so you need as many brands as the most accounts you have on one network. Billed annually, Metricool is $20, $36, $53, $85 and $159 a month for 5, 10, 15, 25 and 50 brands, and PostMesh is $22, $37 and $75. Prices in USD before tax.
