Why podcasters choose Podstatus

Per-account, not per-podcast

Track all your podcasts under one account. No surprise bills as your portfolio grows. Network covers up to 25 shows for $29.99 month-to-month or $239.99/year (about $20/month).

Adds iVoox coverage

Both products cover Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Podstatus also tracks iVoox, which is especially relevant to shows serving Spanish-speaking listeners.

OP3 and client-ready reports

Podstatus connects OP3 download analytics on every plan and adds Document Studio PDF reports on Professional and Network. Podgagement instead invests in feedback and promotion tools.

What Podgagement offers that Podstatus does not

Podgagement has audience engagement tools: voicemail and written feedback collection, NFC Podcast Beacons, social proof image generators, and Slack notifications. If listener engagement features are your priority, Podgagement may be a better fit for that specific use case.

If your priority is understanding your podcast's performance — where it ranks, what keywords drive discovery, how competitors are doing, and getting detailed reports — Podstatus is the more complete solution.
