Quick verdict: who wins?

Buffer is the most pleasant tool on this list to use, and from $6/month it is also the cheapest. That is not a criticism — simplicity is a deliberate choice on their part and it works. But that same simplicity means it does exactly one thing: schedule posts to official channels. It does not post to groups, does not help you find groups, and has no concept of the pacing that keeps Facebook comfortable.

Read on below for the full breakdown with data, features, and cases where Buffer is the better choice.

Looking for a Buffer alternative?

People looking for a Buffer alternative usually are not unhappy with Buffer — they have simply outgrown it. The need shifts from "keep my post queue tidy" to "reach people where they actually are", and that is a different tool.

Moving off Buffer

1Buffer holds a queue, not a content library — copy out any copy you want to keep before cancelling.
2Map the posting schedule you built in Buffer. The daily publishing window in Natural Poster is the same idea.
3Start with five to ten groups rather than all of them. In the first fortnight pacing matters more than volume.
4Buffer is cheap enough to keep for official channels while you build up group activity.

Does Buffer support posting to Facebook Groups?

Natural Poster does. Facebook Groups posting is not supported by the official Facebook API, and most general social media schedulers — including Buffer — do not offer it. Natural Poster works around this with a dedicated desktop app connected to your real Facebook session.

Buffer is far cheaper. Why pay more?

Because you are paying for different things. Buffer prices scheduling per channel; Natural Poster prices a publishing identity that works inside groups. The useful question is not which costs less, but where your enquiries come from.

Can I use both?

Yes, and it is a sensible pairing. Buffer for your page and Instagram, Natural Poster for groups. They do not compete for the same job.

Does Buffer support Hebrew?

Buffer has no Hebrew interface and no dedicated Hebrew support. You can paste Hebrew text into a post, but nothing in the tool is built around RTL or Hebrew writing.
