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.
