Where Smartplannr is different
Analytics that don’t estimate
Smartplannr shows only the figures each network reports, and labels the rest unavailable. Analytics are included, not an add-on.
An inbox included
Reply to, hide or delete comments from Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube on every plan, with no add-on.
A free plan, not a trial
Starter is free for as long as you like: 3 accounts, 10 scheduled posts and 30 published posts a month.
Approvals and client sign-off
Require approval before anything is scheduled, and let clients approve from their own login, on every plan.
Password-protected reports
Share reports by a link that expires, with an optional password, and white-label them on Pro and Max.
Priced in pounds
Plans are priced in GBP and no VAT is added: the price shown is the price you pay.
Choose Planable if…
- You need approval in several stages, such as team lead, then client, then legal. Planable lists multi-level approvals on Enterprise.
- You want unlimited users in each workspace. Planable doesn’t price per seat.
- You post to Pinterest or Google Business Profile, which Smartplannr doesn’t support.
