"Streamlined Client Management, But Needs Mobile Boost"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I like how Planable helps me manage multiple clients and accounts all at once. It's great for working on one client at a time and planning everything ahead, which means I don't have to worry about it for the rest of the week. I appreciate how easy it is to use, even for my clients who don't have social media experience. It has all the necessary features without the unnecessary extras that could make it more complicated. I also like the pricing because it made more sense compared to what I was using before, and Planable has better features that I need. Plus, I liked how everything is separated in Planable. The initial setup was extremely easy too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I think that the platform itself can be a little slow at times. I think that there are sometimes issues with, like, uploading different sizes of photos and videos. Sometimes things get a little complicated. I definitely struggle with the mobile app, and I know some of my clients don't like the mobile app layout as well. I wish it was a little more streamlined and easy to use like the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Max, appreciate the honest feedback! The slow performance is something we're actively working on. If you're still running into issues, don't hesitate to reach out to support@planable.io.

"Organizational Powerhouse with Pricey Add-Ons"
5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I use Planable for social media management and really like the new notes feature that lets me make notes on certain days for what needs to be posted or just reminders. This feature is especially helpful when I'm managing a lot of clients because it keeps me organized and makes it easy to keep track of important dates and reminders for scheduling posts. I also found the initial setup of Planable to be easy, which is a big plus for me. I've even recommended it to multiple people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

It's expensive. I wish it didn't cost extra to add one person to be an approver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hi Carli, really glad the notes feature is making multi-client life easier! Our newer plans actually include unlimited users. If you'd like to talk through your plan options, our team is happy to help at support@planable.io.

"Effortless Social Media Planning with Intuitive Scheduling"
5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I like that I can plan out posts far in advance for the company. I like to drop in a bunch of posts at a time and then move them around based on what looks good in our grid. It is very simple to navigate so I can work on our social media whenever I have a bit of down time. Using planable is definitely what works best for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I dislike how it sends a ping to my phone to upload a story. I would rather do everything on the computer. If it sends a ping then I might as well just make the story posts on my phone to begin with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hey Zoe, thank you so much! The drag-and-drop grid planning is one of those features that's hard to go back from once you've tried it.

On the story ping: the good news is that direct story publishing is actually available in Planable, no phone handoff needed! You just need to have an Instagram Professional (Business) account connected, and stories will publish automatically at the scheduled time. If your account is a personal profile or Creator account, the mobile push notification flow is the current path, but switching to a Business account unlocks fully automatic story publishing.

Our help center guide at help.planable.io/hc/en-us/articles/21715329228956 walks through exactly how to set it up. If you need any help getting it configured, reach out to support@planable.io and we'll help you!

"Planable Makes Content Scheduling and Review Process Easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

Planable makes it easy for my student marketing team to create and schedule content weeks in advance. We love the ease of uploading content from both the app and the website, and it's implemented a streamlined review process for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I've experienced some glitches when trying to upload YouTube shorts and posting directly (scheduling the shorts seems to be the workaround and I haven't had an issue there). I also wish there was an option to add a cover photo or thumbnail for Instagram when working from my computer (so far, I can only upload a thumbnail from my app). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hi there, thank you for this, love hearing that Planable is a good fit for student marketing teams!

Quick tip: editing the video thumbnail is also available on desktop, not just mobile — here's how: https://help.planable.io/hc/en-us/articles/21715285024540-Edit-the-video-thumbnail.

On the YouTube Shorts glitch, we recommend reaching out to support@planable.io, and the team will take a closer look. 🙏

"Streamlines Workflow, Needs More Integrations"
4/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I love that Planable helps my clients have insight into what they're posting, making the edit and review process great both with clients and internally with my design team. We're able to put everything up in a plain view, map out the month, and even plan months ahead. Everything posts seamlessly. I'm a big fan and love Planable. I love that you can see the month view, the calendar view, and the client review process. Planable streamlines processes, reducing touch points between us and the client. They're notified and can easily make comments, which helps my designer make edits and put it back up for approval. Plus, the initial setup was super easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

The ability to post stories on Instagram would be amazing. And then, also, being able to do engagement and comments would be awesome. No. That would be another room for improvement. It would be awesome if Planable could integrate with more platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Thank you, the way you've described the client review loop is exactly the workflow we designed Planable around. Really glad it's clicking for your team.

On Instagram Stories: great news — you can actually post stories directly from Planable! For Instagram Business accounts, stories publish automatically at the scheduled time with no phone handoff needed. If you're on a personal or Creator account, a quick switch to a Business account unlocks full direct publishing. Our guide at help.planable.io/hc/en-us/articles/21715329228956 covers the setup, and support@planable.io can help if you get stuck.

On engagement and comments: our Social Inbox lets you manage comments and DMs across platforms from one place — it might be exactly what you're looking for! Check it out at help.planable.io/hc/en-us/articles/21715283422236.

On more platform integrations: feel free to reach out to our team at support@planable.io and let us know which integrations you're looking forward to.

"Centralized Client Collaboration Made Effortless"
4/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I find Planable easy to use and very visual, which is fantastic for managing posts and campaigns for clients. Planable provides a central point where clients can make comments and ask for edits, enabling multiple copywriters, graphic designers, clients, and approvers to work in one place seamlessly. I appreciate being able to create labels, which is really useful. This feature allows us to organize by month or project, and we can view these labels in both the calendar and feed views, giving us a cohesive look and feel for our campaigns. The initial setup of Planable was very easy and intuitive, allowing us to self-navigate without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

We would love to see the ability to use a bit more AI generated graphics. We find the copywriting section relatively useful, but really, the images or creating the graphics would be very useful to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Thank you so much! The labels feature is definitely underrated for keeping things organized. I've passed along the feedback around AI-generated graphics, definitely something we want to explore. 🙏

"User-Friendly Social Media Scheduling That Saves Marketing Teams Time"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

Easy to manage and organize all kinds of social media posts, great for marketing teams! The interface is user friendly, and the possibility of integrating most social media platforms saves us time! The performance is fast response, made scheduling easy, specially for last minute posts. It works well as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I was recently aware that we were running out of space in our virtual library, this wasn't as clear when we've chosen that tier of the subscription. Maybe Planable could send us an email to inform of the low on space and offer upgrade, but a few days prior to the final notice? Other thing is that not every time it recognizes the social media handles when tagging people, so we need to go straight to the social platform to fix the tagging. This could definitely be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hi there, so glad Planable's been a time-saver for your marketing team! ✨ Thanks for sharing your honest feedback. I'll definitely check with the team as we should have some "close to the limit" pop-up notifications.

As for tagging users, unfortunately, that's limited by the API of the platforms. Due to privacy policies, personal profiles aren't always available to be tagged through third-party apps.

"User-Friendly for Social Media Planning, But Pricey"
4/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I like how simple and clean Planable is. It's user friendly and easy for my clients to use. I also appreciate the good reporting modules. Creating, planning, and scheduling content are features I value the most. Planable was the most user-friendly software when we trialed several options. The initial setup was very easy, and I love all the other features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I find the cost quite high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hi Kate, thanks so much for the kind words, especially about the client experience; that's exactly what we're going for! 🙏

Feel free to drop a line to support@planable.io; the team is happy to chat through what options might make the most sense for your setup.

"Streamlined Scheduling with Intuitive Collaboration"
5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

I've been searching for a scheduler app for a long time, and I'm super satisfied with Planable and its mobile application. It helps me maximize efficiency in terms of bulk scheduling, especially since I record my episodes ahead of time. I really like the ability to have a team working on the same project where you can "approve" it as time goes on, so everyone can stay on track. I also appreciate being able to decide which platforms to publish on. The initial setup was very simple and straightforward, which I appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I would recommend specifying the currency for the plans, either in USD, CAD, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hi Justin, so glad Planable (and the mobile app!) has become your go-to scheduler! 💚 Thanks for highlighting the bulk scheduling, collaboration, and approval workflows. It's great to hear they're helping your team stay organized and efficient.

We also appreciate your feedback about pricing visibility. While our plans are currently displayed in USD, we'll take a closer look at how we can make that clearer and easier to spot throughout the experience.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts!

"Easy-to-Use Content Planning with Flexible Views and Client Approvals"
5/5
What do you like best about Planable?

Planable is easy to use both from a developer/social media manager perspective and from the client-side for approvals and edits. The different "views" make it easy to see exactly what posts will look like and it has every pre-planning option with flexibility to adjust the approval process for each client. I also like that the fees for use are based on each workspace and not on the number of individual users. This is especially helpful when there is a larger client team that all need eyes on the proposed content and editing/approval process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planable?

I wish they didn't send Planable promotional emails to users listed as a "client". I would prefer not muddying up their inboxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Noa Lupu of Planable

Hey Tiffany, really appreciate the detailed feedback! The promotional email concern for client-role users is genuinely valuable feedback and something we're actively reviewing. We'll make sure this gets to the right team!
