Who wrote this and how we checked

CommunityMentions wrote this page, and we sell a competing service, so read it as a vendor's comparison. Every CrowdReply fact below comes from crowdreply.io home, pricing and refund policy pages, read on October 6, 2026. If their page says something different now, their page wins. Our numbers come from our delivery records. In the 30 days of comments posted from August 30 to September 28, 2026, the median client (41 clients) had 106 placements still live at the last check, across Reddit, YouTube, Medium, LinkedIn and X. 11 of them were on Reddit. Comments that were removed after we first verified them are not counted. Strandline Research's comparison of 11 done-for-you Reddit marketing services (same owner as us) scores each on 7 published criteria.

Where CrowdReply wins

  • Price per comment. Reddit comments run $7 to $10 each on top of the plan.
  • Extra tools. AI search tracking, social listening alerts and a backlinks marketplace sit in the same subscription.
  • A 30-day money-back guarantee on the subscription.
  • Credits back for comments an automated filter removes shortly after posting.

Where CommunityMentions fits better

  • You want a link to every comment and a count of the removed ones. Our daily Slack report has both; CrowdReply's pages don't describe a per-comment report.
  • You want more than Reddit today. We post on Reddit, YouTube, Medium, LinkedIn and X.
  • You'd rather not buy upvotes. CrowdReply lists upvotes among its tasks; we don't sell them.

Which one fits

If you want the most Reddit comments per dollar, CrowdReply costs less per comment than we do. Our Reddit volume is lower: the median client had 11 live Reddit comments in the month above. If you want placements across five channels, done for you and reported comment by comment, that's what the $1,290 covers. Start with the free sample and compare the comments themselves.
