And the posts are multiplied but the number of channels you use. Also a “post” is deducted even when you create a draft, regardless of whether the post actually goes live. > > Overall pretty good, support was always responsive and helpful, I moved to Sprout but I wish I had stayed with Planable and given it more of a chance ----- ### "Best way to plan your content" — 5.0/5 > **José Antonio** | *6 March 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It improved my approval workflow as it was a complete mess to keep track of everything via email, sheets, etc. This is a real problem solver, and it does it in a really fancy way. > > **Cons**: The instagram publishing is via notification via de app, not direct publishing. > > It's been great, my clients love it, my team loves it, I love it. What else can I say? ----- ### "Social Media Management Made Easy\!" — 5.0/5 > **Stefanie** | *14 May 2024* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that I can manage all my social media content in one place and it's easy to use\! > > **Cons**: I didn't like that I had to create a facebook page in order to link my instagram account. I don't use facebook so it was just a hassle because I had to go out of my way to create a facebook page just so my business instagram page could be linked, since instagram is owned by facebook. > > I love it\! So easy to use, easy to learn\! I love the options for scheduling\! It actually helps make my marketing tasks on social media more enjoyable as well\! ----- ### "Great Visual Look When Planning Out Content; Stinks with IG Scheduling" — 4.0/5 > **MICHAEL** | *29 June 2021* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really love the visual look of this software compared to Buffer or Hootsuite. When you plan out your SM content, it takes you to a page that looks like your social media profiles complete with a cover photo. You can also add team members to your account and even allow your clients (if you have clients) to overlook the scheduled posts before they're published with limited account access. > > **Cons**: The Instagram scheduling hands down. They now have a feature that you can connect a Buffer account to your Planable to post to your IG feed that way (can we say cumbersome?), but I've ran into too many issues with this...plus, you're limited to only several accounts...Unless you want to pay Buffer for an upgrade and then, what's the point of paying for Planable? If you publish to a number of IG accounts, this is a huge drawback. Not to mention, even the limit I was stuck with had problems with scheduling. I've since had to go elsewhere for scheduling to IG. > > It was really great until the Instagram snag. So many other social media schedulers are offering IG scheduling that Planable seems a little disappointing now, even though I really like their interface and visual components. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/62205/planable?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/62205/planable) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
