March 8, 2018 5.0 Pros For starters I really love the simple and beautiful UI. I also really appreciate the fact that I can add up to 5 users per project (!), not per account. This is more than enough to discuss posts internally and with clients. Also I really appreciate the fact that Planable is not just a scheduling tool, but also a discussion tool. The way we work with clients right now is that we create the post, discuss them internally, then discuss them with clients and then the client can approve a post and only after that are we starting to schedule a post. No more sending e-mails and spreadsheets back and forth. Cons Some features are missing that I'm used to from other software packages like auto posting according to a daily schedule instead of having to schedule everything with an exact date and time. Review Source Shaun G. New Media Manager Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great for us to delegate to volunteers" March 1, 2018 5.0 The ability to delegate to a team of volunteers with one single tool. It accomplishes most of what we need. Pros This is such an easy tool to use. We needed something we could give to a team of volunteers to make things simple to delegate and this does the job perfectly. Cons I wish there were some more features like analytics. I also wish there was a better way to handle Instagram, but I understand the limitations on their end does not help. Review Source Justin H. President Internet Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Planable makes social media collaboration and planning easy" March 5, 2018 5.0 It helps with social media planning and collaboration Pros The visual representation of posts that shows you exactly how your content is going to look on different networks makes the approval process with clients who aren't that technically savvy a real breeze. Cons My previous favorite software had some great research and content creation tools built in, making it even easier to create the content for the posts. I miss that. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Freelance Marketing Professional Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I've been blown away by Planable. It has made my job so much easier and saves loads of time." March 8, 2018 5.0 Pros That you can see the post, exactly as it will look on each network, so the client can sign off with imagery. Hootsuite doesn't do this. No more uploads which saves lots of time and cuts out a whole stage. The calendar view is also fantastic. Cons I haven't yet seen reporting, and not able to view my feeds (as far as I know). But they are always developing things so I'm sure this will be added at some stage. Review Source Sofia M. Stagista - Consulente in Web Marketing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Perfect for social media collaborations" March 5, 2018 5.0 I save a lot of time when I have to make editors plans that have to be approved Pros it's easy to use and very intuitive, it has a calendar view, you can see your post just like it will appear on the platform, it's perfect if you have to collaborate with clients or other social media managers Cons Still there isn't a Planable app but I know they are working on it I have some problems when I have to tag people on facebook posts Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Consultant Public Relations and Communications Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great for social media teams" October 18, 2019 5.0 I use it on various teams and it works so no complaints. Pros A lot of my clients use Planable. As a consultant, I work on lots of teams and Planable has made it easy for our company to streamline the work with clients. The software is simple to use and we’re always on the same page. Cons The Instagram integration could be better but everything else works very well. As mentioned, I use it with my clients and they love it. Review Source Lucas S. Owner Internet Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy intuitive interface that allows me to manage all of my clients social media profiles." March 8, 2018 5.0 Affordable and easy to use social media scheduling software. Pros I love the ability to categorize my posts with tags as well as their awesome feature-rich roadmap of future features. Cons As with many social scheduling platforms I found that OG images don't always post through to the social platform even when displayed in the scheduling software. Not common but it's more likely to happen than posting directly. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Compared to other software's I've used is very useful and easy. Especially the feed view!" March 1, 2018 5.0 Pros The feed view: I can exactly see how the post will be shown on Facebook. It is very easy and user-friendly to use the whole application. Cons In other the other application i have used, it would analyse my FB Page and suggest what time to schedule a post. So it shows analyses and suggest best posting time. Planable does not have this feature and that i really something i don't like. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Virtual Assistant & Principal Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "This is a good tool, but still has room for improvement" March 1, 2018 4.0 Pros Easy calendar view, built in workflow (approve, schedule, etc.) for use with clients, ability to create separate calendars (aka workspace or company) for different brands. Cons Biggest wish is that I could create a queue schedule so that posts were automatically slotted into the schedule, instead of having to manually schedule each time. Also would love to see recurring post library. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Graphic Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use and great features" March 5, 2018 5.0 easy to visually plan out my posts Pros I love that I can post something and wait for it to be approved. Being able to post simply an idea that I have for that day is very helpful, as is having the ability to discuss a post with another team member before actually posting it. Cons it is not autoposting to Instagram yet. I know this is rolling out slowly, so it's really not a fault with Planable, just something I am looking forward to. Review Source Beverley T. Social Media Strategist & Consultant Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Streamlined approval process" January 24, 2018 5.0 Pros Planable makes approving posts easy. The comment feature also helps with teaching, being able to indicate what you like/don't like about a post is super helpful when you're training, but also to get a feel for what clients like as well. Cons I know Planable is still growing, but features like a calendar view and a look at the upcoming posts throughout one workspace would be great. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social Media Manager & Digital Strategist Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I love the ease of use to Planable. There was no learning curve and everything is intuitive." March 6, 2018 4.0 Pros Perfect visual representation of what a post will look like. The ability for clients to see exactly how the post will look and approve the post right there and then saves me time. Cons Would like to be able to include more social networks, Linked In for example. The reconnection process for when a page loses it's connection to the network is not obvious and could be clearer. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Manager Automotive Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent and easy to use! " March 1, 2018 5.0 The ability to see all of my companies social activity in one place as well as collaborate with other people in my organization. Pros Planable is very easy to use and lightweight! other softwares such as hootsuite i feel are over the top and have bad UX but planable is perfect. Cons I have had some problems uploading videos to planable and publishing to facebook, everytime i try to do this it ends up not posting. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social Specialist Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Perfect for getting approvals on social media posts!" March 1, 2018 5.0 Saving time. Pros I use it as a social media freelancer to get approvals on scheduled posts, and Planable is the missing puzzle piece for me. The interface is simple, straightforward, and mimics Facebook's UI so that my clients are comfortable in knowing what the end result is. I'm really looking forward to scheduling Instagram when they get access to the API! Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Manager Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "really neat software, straight forward and easy to use" March 1, 2018 4.0 fast social media planning and management Pros The dashboard is pretty easy to use and the calendar option is quite nice. Probably the best thing is that you actually see how the post will look like on the platform before you actually publish it. Cons The design is not too good. The user interface looks like it could use some graphic design work to make it look better. Review Source Justine S. Community Manager Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Planable is easy to use and especially great for teams!" March 5, 2018 4.0 The ability to collaborate with my team on social media. Pros I love that my team and I can collaborate on posts. Sometimes I add an image, my content creator adds a caption and our social media coordinator schedules! Cons There are still some features and functions I would like to see happen. However, I feel confident that Planable is working on them as I type this. Review Source SR Sandra R. Founder Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Outstanding customer support, fabulous product " March 5, 2018 5.0 Pros Ease of use and provides clients such an easy review and approval process. Almost immediate customer support and troubleshooting. Planable has helped us eliminate a doubled up workflow, and made it easier for both my team and clients to coordinate. Cons No G+ integration, but am hopeful it will be incorporated- developers have been amazing at asking for feedback on feature requests Review Source AK Anna K. Marketing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Planable is very easy to use, user-friendly tool, definitely worth the money. " March 1, 2018 3.0 Pros \- very easy to use - nicely organized overview - reliable - option to add other users, add notes & commands, schedule and plan Cons \- all FB pages imported even though I gave permission only to business pages - not being able to delete imported FB page - Instagram publishing missing (some services already have this feature) - tag someone in the post option is missing Review Source AF Aja F. Executive Assistant Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simple, Easy, and Fun" March 5, 2018 5.0 It allows me to schedule all our SM posts at once and to get approval for all of them at once as well. Pros Planable makes it very easy for SSM get approval from their clients. Its nice having a comment thread for each image, so that everything stays clean. Cons There are still several things I wish it did. Such as, not post an image without approval first. But they are adding new features all the time! Review Source LB Lindsay B. Contracts and Compliance Administrator Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Very useful collboration tool" November 9, 2018 5.0 Pros I like the collaboration aspect of this software. You can create content and throw it out there for your team members to review for approval or denial before it goes out to the rest of the world. Much easier than sending a billion emails back and forth and trying to see the status of an email trail. Cons Not much to dislike about this software. We find it to be very useful. Review Source Gary B. Owner Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Planable is simple to use and seems to do all I need" March 1, 2018 4.0 Saving time by being able to schedule posts on multiple pages from one window. Pros If I use it wisely this tool can save me time with setting in place posts on multiple pages for the week ahead Cons Still would like it to integrate with Instagram - and I believe this is in the pipeline. When this feature arrives it will definitely be a time saver for me Review Source DG Darlene G. Certified Consultant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Amazing Software" March 28, 2021 5.0 I have tried using many different programs to help me organize my vendor events/parties that I host. This app has been the most successful. Pros How easy it was to use, I felt this program was easy to understand. Cons I have not found anything I dislike yet.

Right now we're focusing on bringing more platforms and formats to Planable so that it's easier for teams to collaborate on all their social media in one place. That's why, for the time being, we're not planning to develop any analytics features.

Pros Easy to set up and show clients how to use it. It puts control back into the clients hands as they can select posts /edit. Everything is laid out and simple to control.
