Heropost Media
It is great for managing multiple poster's social media accounts. I currently have four clients whose social media campaigns I manage. Heropost allows me to set up groups for each client so that I can schedule posts (of all different types of media) for their specific social media mixes. This is a terrific feature and makes my job a LOT easier.

SocialBee
SocialBee is very ideal for busy individuals or small agencies that are not privileged with time. Social media management can be one of the most tedious tasks in anybody's business. SocialBee covers the majority of the tasks. Set it up once and you're done (practically forever) With all its powerful features though, it can be a little more complicated for a non-techie person. If your requirements are just simple post-scheduling, you can use other alternatives.

Cons
Heropost Media
  • Two social media outlets that DID work but no longer connect are Google Business and X (formerly Twitter). These need to be added back in. CRUCIAL!
  • Update Lifetime Access software option instead of abandoning it. Purchasers helped get Heropost off the ground...
  • I don't have any other issues with the software.

SocialBee
  • Though it's not clunky, it can improve on the loading speeds while working.
  • The UI/UX can be further improved (nice and neat instead of big cards especially on the categories page)
  • I would love it if the scheduler can be expanded into 2-weeks or monthly range. So we can post categories that are on a 2x a month and 1x a month frequency.

Usability
Heropost Media
Heropost is ALMOST perfect! Content creation, scheduling, posting and analytics are all right there! The ONLY drawback that I have found is that two of our main social media networks are not currently able to connect to Heropost, due to some API changes. I REALLY hope that these can get worked out. If they do, this rating goes to 10!

SocialBee
Currently, SocialBee is the only software that we use for our social media clients, the confidence that we have for SB is above the fold. It saves us a lot of time and business management is easy because it's highly quantifiable with the client as to the number of posts, schedules, and results.

I have encountered their support just a couple of times since the platform is very straightforward for me. But on those occasions, it was so smooth. They responded to my concerns in just a few hours. Not too many companies offer that convenience nowadays. Plus, they do live webinars regularly which is totally amazing!

Alternatives Considered
Heropost Media
These other apps like Hootsuite and Metricool are way to over priced and are glitchy to say the least. HeroPost seems to me to be the most solid and reliable work horse in the game. I use it daily and my team use it daily and it never lags or breaks. I would have to say that the heropost user interface is just fantastic

SocialBee provides multiple features that you can get from other multiple different tools. It's kinda all in one solution for social media management. So cost-wise, it saves us a lot of money. It is also from a stable company with a sufficient MRR that helps with the security and development of the software.
