Hope my clients find it helpful. > > **Cons**: HATE that the quality is so bad and you limit the quality of uploads on images. makes it really hard to plan content for clients who need high quality images like photographers/ > > Its good, ive only started this month so hopefully its easy for my clients to use but overall I enjoy it, just really wish the image upload quality was better. ----- ### "Planable Review" — 4.0/5 > **Masego** | *25 July 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Beautiful platform, easy to use one of the best products > > **Cons**: I could not post to Instagram without linking your Facebook page, almost all platforms have this issue > > My overall experience was great, I loved the platform ----- ### "The best platform for content approval processes" — 4.0/5 > **Angel** | *06 October 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that Planable is incredibly flexible when you're managing several brands and several accounts. Being able to easily share content previews for approval, calendar views for different brands and/or platforms, etc. are exactly what I've been looking for in a social media management platform. The calendar view makes it easy to visually lay out my content for the month and make sure I'm posting regularly. The platform is very easy to use, which is great because I don't need to spend extra time teaching people how to use it or asking them to create an account when I send content for approval. > > **Cons**: I don't like the fact that analytics aren't included in the base plans. Analytics are the cornerstone of good social media management and strategy, and tucking that behind an extra paywall feels unnecessary, especially when the subscription prices are already in the higher range. I would've given this review 5 stars if analytics were included in the subscription plans. > > Overall, Planable is a very clean, streamlined platform. I've tried several different social media management platforms and Planable has been the easiest to use. Features like easy content feedback \& approvals and platform-specific content actually help streamline my social media management, rather than adding another program for me to juggle. ----- ### ""A Great Collaboration Tool That Makes Social Media Management Effortless"" — 4.0/5 > **Abdalmeged** | *15 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Planable has a very clean and intuitive interface that makes it easy to get started without a steep learning curve. The visual content calendar gives a clear overview of scheduled posts across multiple platforms > > **Cons**: The editing options feel a bit limited sometimes, and it can get slow with a lot of content. Pricing might be a stretch for smaller teams, and I wish it had more integrations. > > It's been a solid tool overall. The collaboration and approval features really streamlined our workflow, and the visual feed preview saves a lot of back-and-forth with the team. A few limitations here and there, but nothing that takes away from how much it simplifies social media management day to day. ----- ### "Overall, just a GREAT platform\!" — 5.0/5 > **Chloe** | *24 November 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the fact that our clients' have everything they need in one place\! The ability to make notes internal, whilst allowing the clients' access to everything else, is something we have always struggled with, communication wise as agency. We also love the drafts for content creation, it makes it very easy for my team to plan the calendars in advance and gives the entire team visibility with no limitations on the number of members included in the cost of one workspace\! > > **Cons**: I wish Planable would send notifications at the beginning of the day when there's posts scheduled to avoid any minor mistakes for triple checking. > > Very very good. It is easy to navigate for both team members and for clients, and we've had very good feedback from them. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/171744/planable?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/171744/planable) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
