What is Sprout Social?

Social trends spotted and acted on with team workflows.

Who is Sprout Social best for?

Sprout Social is best for marketing teams that run several brand accounts and want publishing and a shared inbox.

  • Social media managers

    Essentials covers scheduling for up to 5 profiles with suggested send times and post reports, for less than the team plans.

  • Social customer care teams

    One inbox gathers messages and reviews from every network, and higher plans add AI reply help, sentiment and helpdesk links.

  • Brands watching rivals and trends

    Professional adds competitor and paid reports, and the Listening add-on follows conversations and flags sudden spikes.

  • Large marketing organisations

    Enterprise brings guided setup, SSO and priority support, and a separate influencer tool runs creator campaigns alongside it.
