⚠️
Wait — before you choose
Both Buffer and Sprout Social don't support posting to Facebook groups. This is a Facebook API limitation that affects all international tools. If you're a US business that posts to groups — neither will be enough.
Natural Poster is the only tool that solves this problem, through a dedicated desktop app that safely works around the limitation. Worth checking before you pay.
