About Metricool

Metricool combines social media publishing, analytics, competitor tracking, advertising dashboards, and client reporting for creators, marketing teams, and agencies. Its visual calendar supports multiple social platforms, while analytics and reporting help teams review organic and paid activity together. The forever-free tier covers one brand and 20 scheduled posts a month but excludes LinkedIn and X connections. Starter adds LinkedIn, longer analytics history, and downloadable reports; Advanced adds multi-client approvals, roles, a Looker Studio connector, and API access. Brand-count pricing makes the offer easier to map to agency portfolios, but X accounts and deeper analytics can trigger separate fees. Metricool is most compelling when scheduling and performance reporting matter equally.

Best for

Social media managers, small agencies, and multi-brand marketing teams that need scheduling plus recurring analytics reports.

Metricool pros and cons

Pros

  • One calendar covers publishing and analytics across several major social networks, reducing manual reporting switches.
  • Free plan supports one brand, 20 posts a month, basic analytics, and five competitor profiles with no fixed expiration.
  • Starter supports LinkedIn, report exports, unlimited analytics history, and up to 10 managed brands.
  • Advanced adds client approval, team roles, API access, and a Looker Studio connector for agency workflows.
  • Recent G2 reviewers frequently commend the visual scheduler, brand management, and practical reporting workflow.

Cons

  • −The free plan does not connect LinkedIn or X, which can rule it out for B2B or X-heavy teams.
  • −X/Twitter connectivity costs an additional $10 per account per month on eligible paid plans.
  • −Advanced Analytics is separately charged, so the base subscription is not the whole cost for deep reporting.
  • −API, approvals, custom report templates, and the Looker Studio connector require Advanced or Custom.
  • −Some G2 reviewers report intermittent account disconnections or platform-specific posting restrictions; these are user reports, not reproduced tests.
