MeetEdgar alternatives, compared

MeetEdgar’s Eddie plan covers 5 social accounts, without the social inbox; Edgar covers 25. Twenty-one alternatives compared by channel cap.

The short answer

MeetEdgar’s Eddie plan covers 5 social accounts and Edgar 25, and every plan includes 20 team members, unlimited scheduled posts and a 30-day free trial, according to its pricing page. Eddie is described as “best for freelancers and entrepreneurs”; the social inbox is listed on Edgar, not Eddie. MeetEdgar is built around content categories and weekly automations that keep posting from a library of evergreen posts.

People look for an alternative when they want replies in one inbox on the first plan, need more than 5 accounts without moving to Edgar, or post new things more than they recycle old ones.

The table further down compares twenty-one alternatives by how many channels their entry plan allows, read from each vendor’s own pricing page on the date shown. PostEase, which publishes this comparison, has no channel cap on any plan, the free one included.

MeetEdgar’s plans, in its own words

Each plan adds to the one before it. Prices are left out on purpose: they change too often, and differ by billing period and currency, to compare fairly.

Why people leave MeetEdgar

For someone with a library of evergreen posts to keep in rotation, MeetEdgar is built around that idea. The reasons people look elsewhere are mostly about fit:

  • No inbox on Eddie. MeetEdgar lists the social inbox on Edgar only.
  • Five accounts on Eddie. A sixth means Edgar.
  • Built for recycling. Someone who mostly posts new things uses little of the automation.
  • A trial, then a paid plan. There is no stated way to keep posting lightly for nothing after 30 days.

What to compare

Before choosing, check the things that change what you pay and what you do every day:

  • Channels: how many the plan you would buy allows, and what the next one costs.
  • Seats: how many people can use it, and whether more cost extra.
  • Inbox: whether comments and messages arrive in one place on the plan you would buy.
  • Platforms: whether the platforms you post to are live for publishing, not only listed.
  • Bulk scheduling: whether you can schedule from a file on your plan.
  • Leaving: whether you can bring your existing calendar, and cancel without contacting anyone.

How PostEase compares, honestly

PostEase has no channel cap on any plan and no price per seat. Free includes every channel, 10 scheduled posts a month, publishing and the inbox; Creator, at $15 a month, adds Studio for video, Ideas, Automations, full Performance and the media kit. YouTube, X, LinkedIn (personal profile), Pinterest, Bluesky, and WordPress publishing are live today; Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and Threads are pending each platform's own API approval.

If your plan depends on automatically recycling a library of evergreen posts, compare that carefully: it is MeetEdgar’s core idea, and PostEase recycles a post when you choose to, as a new draft. If you post to the live platforms and want scheduling, an inbox, video editing and a link-in-bio page in one place without an account limit, PostEase is built for that.

Moving your calendar from MeetEdgar

PostEase imports any CSV of scheduled posts with a caption and a date column. The upload guesses the rest, shows each column it matched for you to confirm, reads both ISO and US date formats, and brings the posts in as drafts, up to 500 rows a file, even before every channel is reconnected.
