Alternatives to Sendible

British tool for scheduling and managing social media, mainly for agencies and brands with several clients.

Sendible is a tool for scheduling social media posts, made by Sendible Limited from London. According to its own site, Sendible has been part of ASG, a software group backed by investor Alpine Investors, since 2021; we could not check where that group is based against a source of its own. According to the privacy policy, your data is stored on servers in the US (with Amazon Web Services) and transfers outside the EEA rely on standard contractual clauses. We found no separate data processing agreement (DPA) on the site, and we could not establish whether the app can be used in Dutch. The pricing page showed no amounts when we checked.
