Wrapping up
Upfluence is not a one-size-fits-all platform in that:
- Its database is small with only 8 million influencers. Search results are limited when you play with multiple filters.
- Starting from $478 to $1276 per month for just one account, its pricing goes beyond budget for many small & medium brands or agencies.
- Annual contract is inflexible if you want to cancel halfway.
- No free trial from its official website. So you will need to book a sales demo for details.
Not all platforms are perfect but you are more likely to find the right one by clarifying what are must-haves to your team and making deep researches.
