Postly vs Buffer

Postly supports LinkedIn Articles (native)—a clear advantage—alongside advanced publishing and linear per-channel pricing. Buffer uses pure per-channel billing.

Advanced features you get with Postly

  • LinkedIn Articles (native) + Documents/PDF carousels
  • IG & FB: Reels + Stories + Feed together
  • ALT text across most platforms
  • YouTube Shorts, Pinterest Pins, TikTok uploads
  • Per-channel pricing (transparent, scalable)

Publer states Articles aren’t supported via API; Buffer’s LinkedIn help doesn’t list Articles. Postly supports Articles now.
