Most people looking for a Yext alternative are reacting to the same two things: annual only billing with a long minimum, and the question of what happens to the listings afterwards.
Pricing checked September 2026 and taken from each vendor own page. Where a vendor publishes nothing, the row says so rather than carrying a guess.
Yext has the widest publisher network in the category, and that is a real advantage. What sends people looking is the commercial shape: self serve tiers run from about $199 to $999 per location per year, billing is annual with 12 to 24 month minimum terms, and larger deployments go through a quote. GBPPromote is first here because the price is public, every tool is on one plan at $5.33 per location from eight sites, and you can stop any month.
GBPPromote is the best Yext alternative for multi-location brands. Yext bills annually with 12 to 24 month minimums. GBPPromote publishes its price, bills monthly, and covers every location on one plan. All 42 tools sit on one plan: $16 at one location, a flat $37 for two to seven, and $5.33 each from eight, with a three day free trial and no contract.
How we ranked these
Ordered for this job specifically rather than reused from another list. Five things decided the order.
Monthly instead of annual
The single most common reason for leaving. Monthly billing makes the decision reversible.
What happens to the listings
Ask directly what your entries look like after cancellation. It is the question people wish they had asked.
Enough publisher reach
Nobody matches Yext reach, so the honest question is how much of it you were actually using.
Total cost per location
Yext annual figure per location is the number to beat, not its monthly equivalent.
A trial without a salesperson
Being able to test the replacement before committing is most of the appeal of leaving.
GBPPromote is our platform and GMBAudit is our own brand on it, which is why both sit at the top. Every other entry says plainly where it beats us.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best Yext alternative?
GBPPromote if published pricing and monthly billing are the reasons you are leaving. Moz Local is the cheapest straight swap for listings distribution alone, and Uberall is the closest enterprise match on reach.
How much does Yext cost?
Self serve tiers run from roughly $199 to $999 per location per year, billed annually with 12 to 24 month minimum terms. Larger deployments are quoted individually.
What happens to my listings if I cancel Yext?
Ask Yext directly for your account. Listings published through a managed network can revert, and the answer materially changes the cost of switching, so get it in writing before you decide.
Is there a free Yext alternative?
Not at the same scope. Google Business Profile Manager and Bing Places are free and cover the platforms that matter most, but nothing free handles aggregator distribution.
Do I need that much publisher reach?
Most local businesses do not. Google, Apple, Bing, Facebook and the main aggregators carry the majority of the value.
