Where xpost is better
Half the price for the same nine accounts
9 accounts is $24 a month on Creator, up to 10. Ten channels on Postiz is $39.
A receipt for every post
A link to the live post for every account, every time. You never wonder if it went out.
Approvals and client links
A teammate or a client says yes before a post goes out, from a link with no login.
Nothing to run
No server, no updates, no database to back up — the trade you make for the source code.

Cancel the old plan when you are sure
Run both for a week. When every receipt comes back green, cancel Postiz — it will not miss a day.
Questions people ask
No. Postiz is, and that is a real reason to pick it. xpost is hosted, and its API and MCP server mean your own tools can still drive it.
