What’s the difference between Sked and Sprout?

If you scan Sprout’s recent reviews, you’ll see that even long-term customers are struggling to see the value for what they’re paying.

Many of Sprout’s most useful features are locked behind a paywall. What Sked provides as core features will cost you $399 per month with Sprout...for a single user. Have another team member? Make it $798/month. $1197/month if there’s three of you. And on it goes. Want social listening? An add on. Premium analytics? Another add on. For many teams—even those with budget to burn—Sprout is simply overpriced.
