Best Social Media Management Tools for Agencies Managing Multiple Client Accounts
The best social media management tools for agencies managing multiple client accounts in 2026, compared on client workspaces, approvals, seats, reporting and price.
The best social media management tool for an agency is the one that keeps each client separate, lets clients approve posts easily, and doesn't charge you more every time you hire someone. For most small and mid-size agencies, that means client workspaces, approval links, role-based access and pricing per plan or per channel rather than per user.
Below are the features that matter, and how the main tools compare.
What agencies actually need
| Need | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| A workspace per client | Keeps channels, posts and calendars separate, so you never post to the wrong brand |
| Client approval links | Clients approve without learning a new tool or needing a paid seat |
| Roles and permissions | Writers draft, managers approve, clients only see their brand |
| Enough seats | Per-user pricing gets expensive as the team grows |
| Exportable reports | Monthly client reports in minutes, not hours |
| Predictable pricing | Adding a client shouldn't double your bill |

How Foxli works for agencies
Foxli's Team & Agency plan is built around client workspaces:
- Agency clients page: add each client, see their workspace, connected channels, pending approvals and last activity in one table.
- Client roles: invite clients as Client Admin or Client Approver, and team members as content creators or brand managers.
- Client portal link: copy a link so the client can review and approve posts for their brand, with no access to your billing.
- Unlimited seats and workspaces, priced at ₹119 (about $1.45) per channel a month.
- Reports: export analytics as PDF or CSV.
- 7 platforms plus AutoDM for client Instagram and Facebook campaigns.
A note on bias: I build Foxli, so take my pick with that in mind. Foxli doesn't offer social listening, a full unified inbox or CSV bulk upload; agencies that sell those services to clients will be better served by Sprout Social, Agorapulse or SocialPilot. Pushpendra Singh Rathor, founder of Foxli
Cost for a 4-person agency with 5 clients (25 channels)

| Sendible Premium (7 workspaces, 42 profiles) | ≈ $169 billed yearly |

How to choose
- Count clients and channels, not just people. Per-channel tools stay cheap for small teams with many clients.
- Test the approval flow with a real client during the trial. If they find it confusing, it will slow every month.
- Check reporting. Can you export a client-ready report in under 10 minutes?
- Decide if you sell community management. If yes, inbox depth (Agorapulse, Sprout) matters more than price.
