Metricool prices read on metricool.com/pricing and help.metricool.com in September 2026: USD, monthly billing shown ($36 and $53/mo on annual billing, where Metricool Advanced is cheaper than Mydrop Pro; we're not hiding that). X/Twitter connections are a $10/mo add-on per account. Mydrop Pro is $59/mo, monthly billing.
What the lower bill leaves out
Cheaper is real. So is what's missing.
Fine for schedule-and-report. Thin the moment clients arrive.
A real client portal
Theirs is share links. Ours is a branded space, own domain on Enterprise.

Managing 14+ social platforms felt like a 2 a.m. nightmare until Mydrop. The AI brand-voice mapping is scary accurate, and the client approval portal saved me easily 15 hours this week alone. It's the ultimate set-and-forget workspace for busy agencies.
Google reviewA true automation tool for scheduling (and creating) social media content! It has saved me over 20 hours of work already in just my first couple weeks. A true game-changer for anyone in business, big or small!
Trustpilot reviewFinally tried Mydrop on a test client and the white-label portal on a custom domain actually looks legit, no Mydrop branding sneaking in. The OAuth setup saved me from the usual “what's my password” back-and-forth.
Product Hunt commentAbsolute game-changer. Mydrop completely automated my content workflow. The scheduling is flawless, it actually feels intuitive, and it saved me 10+ hours in my very first week. Best decision I've made for my socials!

Google reviewFAQ
Questions, answered.
Often, no. As of September 2026, Metricool's Advanced tier covers 15 brands with approvals and unlimited team members at $53/mo billed annually ($67 monthly), while Mydrop Pro is $59/mo for 10 brands. If the lowest bill is the whole decision, Metricool wins it. You choose Mydrop for what the bill includes: portals, WhatsApp approvals, white label at a published price, and AI writing without a per-brand credit meter.
Metricool meters its AI assistant at 5 to 35 credits per brand per month depending on plan, consumption scales with tokens, and their help center states extra credits can't be purchased, as of September 2026. Mydrop includes AI writing on every plan with no credit pool, and the AI drafts from each brand's stored voice, assets and rules. AI image and video generation carry monthly allowances by plan, stated plainly.
Metricool's approval system (Advanced and up, as of September 2026) sends reviewers an email link, no account needed, and it works. Mydrop ships approvals on every plan and adds WhatsApp approve and suggest-edits, reminder chasing, suggested edits attached to the post, and a hold state that keeps a pending post from publishing.
Not as of September 2026: their white label (custom URL, your logo and colors, branded emails) is exclusive to the Custom plan, priced by contacting sales. Mydrop's white-label portals and reports are on Enterprise at a published $249/mo, with portals on client-owned domains.
A solo, analytics-first operator on a tight budget who doesn't need teammates below the top tier, client portals, or uncapped brand-voice AI gets excellent value from Metricool, especially on the free plan. That's a real recommendation, not a trap.
Keep your budget honest. Upgrade the client experience.
Start free and put one client on a Mydrop portal with WhatsApp approvals. Keep whatever the comparison tells you.
