How eksis compares
Every figure below comes from the vendor's own public pricing page, calculated the same way: 15 social accounts, on the cheapest plan that actually allows them. Where a vendor publishes only an annual-billing rate, that is the figure shown.

vs Buffer
Buffer is the tool eksis is modelled on for workflow, and the one it differs from most on price. Buffer bills per channel; eksis bills per workspace.
vs Hootsuite
Hootsuite is the enterprise incumbent, priced accordingly. Its entry plan stops at ten social accounts, so a small team running fifteen is already on the tier above.
vs Sprout Social
Sprout Social is built for marketing teams with a reporting budget. eksis is built for the operator who has to answer the comments.
vs Publer
Publer is the closest competitor on price, and the comparison turns on one thing: what happens when you add the tenth account.
vs ManyChat
ManyChat is an automation tool that does not publish. eksis does both, and does not count your contacts.
Public pricing as of October 2026, for the cheapest plan on each platform that allows 15 social accounts. Hootsuite and Sprout Social publish annual-billing rates only, so those are the rates shown. Prices change; check each platform's own pricing page before you decide. Each card draws its two bars to scale against each other.
Why the gap is this wide
Most tools bill per channel, per seat, or per active contact, so the price climbs with the thing you were trying to scale. eksis bills per workspace: the plan sets how many accounts and operators fit, and adding the twentieth account costs the same as adding the second.
- No per-account billing Per-channel models push your bill up every time you add a profile. On eksis, 20 accounts are included from day one.
- Automation is not an add-on Comment replies, auto-DM, lead tagging, rescheduling. All at the same price, with no separate AI fee and no active-contact counter.
- Open API on every paid plan The REST API starts on the cheapest paid plan, not locked behind an enterprise tier or sold as an extra module. The MCP server for AI assistants works on Free too.
