Best all-in-one Twitter tool
Many Twitter tools have their own specialties—and we’ll cover many throughout this article—but there’s only one that encompasses all specialties into one well-rounded tool.
1. Sprout Social

Twitter management tools
Twitter management can encompass a number of things, but it’s typically viewed as a tool that allows brands and their marketing teams to create, schedule, edit and monitor their tweets. Here are a couple of Twitter management tools that your team might be interested in trying out.
2. GroupTweet
![A screenshot of Twitter tool GroupTweet's website](https://media.sproutsocial.com/uploads/2023/03/Screen-Shot-2023-03-13-at-7.39.04-PM.png)
GroupTweet is a useful Twitter tool because it allows more than one person to manage your account. If you have a team of social media managers working on your Twitter, you’ll need more than one login for your management tool. This can sometimes add to the cost of your tool—and if you’re on a tight budget, that can be a dealbreaker.
But with GroupTweet, your entire team can easily tweet all from the same account. GroupTweet offers a free 14-day trial for teams to test out the tool. Paid plans start at $7.99/month for five contributors.
3. Planable

Planable is a Twitter management tool that allows teams to collaborate on content together. It has an approval process so teams can easily train new team members or get client approval before publishing.

Plans are flexible with planable. There’s a completely free plan and paid plans start at $11/user/month, but prices fluctuate based on the number of users and workspaces you need to incorporate for your team’s usage.
