Note: While Walls.io is great for events, costs can add up quickly due to its split-plan structure and paid add-on features. If you have large-scale/custom requests, the Flockler team is happy to build a tailored plan for you.
Before we jump into the reasons, here’s a quick comparison table that gives you the core differences.
5 reasons brands and agencies pick Flockler while looking for a Walls.io alternative
1) One subscription. All surfaces.
With Flockler, the same plan powers websites, events, digital signage, intranets, newsletters, and apps. No juggling parallel subscriptions for “Events vs Website vs Signage.” That’s more marketing horsepower, unified campaign management at a fraction of the budget.
2) AI that actually removes work
Garde AI auto-flags unsafe UGC (image + text) and automates publishing at scale, which is perfect for busy hashtag campaigns or always-on, evergreen community walls. Teams cut down on manual approvals without risking brand safety on either the copy or the creative front.
3) EAA/WCAG-ready out of the box
From June 2025, European sites serving EU customers were required to meet EAA accessibility standards or face penalties. This means alt text for images isn’t just a good practice anymore, it’s mandatory.
Flockler’s AI-generated Alt Text helps busy agencies and businesses avoid wasting time on the manual effort of painstakingly adding alt text to each feed image, ensuring inclusivity and accessibility checks are now conducted periodically.
4) Monetizing content for commerce
Turning UGC into shoppable galleries with clear CTAs across all CMSes, including Shopify, makes Flockler a great choice for online retail. You can also pipe in the exact social proof that nudges purchase, along with a ready-to-buy button. This comes at no added cost to our customers, while Walls has gated it behind a $96 add-on pricing.
5) Lower total cost, fewer add-ons
A single plan, built-in shoppable CTAs, manual content, faster refresh, onboarding support, and AI features mean fewer paid add-ons and predictable monthly costs compared with split plans.
Where Walls.io does well
If you’re purely event-driven, Walls.io has polished event tooling, and you can buy passes for short-run activations, while they may cost you more. For some event teams, that’s all they need.
Flockler caters to businesses that want to focus on social aggregation across multiple platforms and helps run events or UGC campaigns across more channels.
