Looking for a CoSchedule alternative?
CoSchedule is a marketing calendar first: social posts sit beside blog posts, emails and projects, ReQueue re-shares evergreen posts, and WordPress syncs both ways. Its plans were renamed this autumn: Starter is $39 a month ($29 yearly) for 1 user and 3 profiles, Professional is $59 ($49) for up to 3 users and 5 profiles, and every X profile costs $16 a month more. What sends people looking is usually the user caps, approvals only on Professional, or posts that can't go out as a thread.
Who should use which
Stay with CoSchedule if your marketing team plans blog posts, emails and social in one calendar, syncs WordPress, or relies on ReQueue to keep evergreen posts going out. PostDaily handles only what it publishes. PostDaily fits when more than three people need to post, when X shouldn't cost extra per profile, when you publish threads, or when a client should approve from a link without signing in.
Where CoSchedule is the better choice
Leading with this because it decides the question for a lot of people, and you should not have to dig for it.
It plans more than social
Blog posts, emails and marketing projects live in the same calendar as social posts, WordPress syncs both ways even on the free plan, and Mailchimp, HubSpot and other email tools connect on every paid plan. PostDaily only handles what it publishes.
ReQueue keeps evergreen posts going
ReQueue fills gaps in your schedule from groups of evergreen posts (5 groups on Starter, 10 on Professional). PostDaily's queue fills your posting times with new posts; it doesn't recycle old ones on its own.
An inbox and AI with no usage cap
CoSchedule includes a social inbox and its AI assistants on every paid plan, with no cap on AI use. PostDaily has no inbox.
It publishes to a network we don't
CoSchedule publishes to Google Business Profile, which PostDaily does not yet.
Where PostDaily is the better fit
Threads, published as threads
CoSchedule's help centre says it can't publish multi-post threads. PostDaily publishes a thread of up to 25 posts, each with its own media, on every network that has them, and counts each post the way its network does.
X without a per-profile charge
CoSchedule charges $16 a month for every X profile, on top of the plan. PostDaily includes X on its paid plans, within a monthly X budget, because X charges us per post.
More people on a plan
CoSchedule's Starter allows 1 user and Professional up to 3, at $29 a month for the third. PostDaily's Agency plan includes 10 seats and 100 channels at one price.
A client approves from a link
CoSchedule's approvals start on Professional, and an approver signs in with an Approver login (it costs nothing and uses no seat). PostDaily's review link comes with Pro: the client approves or leaves feedback in the browser with no account at all, and the post is held until they do.

Common questions
- What happened to CoSchedule's Social Calendar plan?
- CoSchedule's help centre lists it as an older plan: existing customers can keep it, but new customers choose Starter, Professional or Suite. Social Calendar maps to Starter, or to Professional for more than one user.
- Does CoSchedule support Bluesky and Mastodon?
- Yes, on every paid plan, according to its pricing page and help centre. PostDaily publishes to both too.
- Is PostDaily cheaper than CoSchedule?
- For one person on a few profiles, CoSchedule's Starter at $39 a month ($29 yearly) is hard to beat, unless you post to X, which adds $16 a month per profile. For a team or a client, compare PostDaily's plans on our pricing page.
- What does CoSchedule do that PostDaily does not?
- Blog, email and project planning, WordPress sync, ReQueue for evergreen posts, a social inbox, and publishing to Google Business Profile.
