Planable - The command center for your social media team

Hey, Product Hunt. Thank you so much, Murat, for hunting us! Planable co-founder here. We started Planable out of our own need for better social media collaboration. Every single social media project we were ever involved was complete chaos in terms of collaboration. We were using spreadsheets for social media content review, PowerPoints for showcasing content to clients, Dropbox or G Drive for transferring files, fake Facebook pages for previewing content, Buffer or Hootsuite for scheduling it once it was approved. This mishmash of tools was confusing. Feedback was scattered across back and forth emails. And the exercise of imagining how a carousel or link post is going to look like after publishing on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or LinkedIn was simply frustrating. We think great social content is created by teams who are aligned and we help them easily do that. We built Planable to bring team members, clients and social content on the same page for better, faster brand storytelling. Once you check it, you'll realize how simple the app is. As of now with Planable you can have: - Your social content in the same place, perfectly organized and visually rich - Preview the content exactly like it would look after publishing so no misunderstandings can happen - Feedback exchange and real-time iteration - Approvals, with one single click, dead simple - Schedule, to all your social pages Would love to hear your thoughts! P.S. We’re offering 3 months free for our favorite PH supporters with promo code - PlanablePH

Great idea, well designed user experience. I like the whole approach and can't wait to use it to manage one of our own products. Kudos to you! 🎉

I've used this for some time and love the platform. It's simple to use and has been expanded to cover all the main social channels we manage for clients.

Pros:

Great system and perfect for sharing with clients before publishing content on social channels.

Cons:

None so far.

Hi @xeniamuntean, @vladcalus & @nick_gudumac what are some of the most unique features of Planable that we should we check out?

If you are one of the 65 million people with a Facebook page for your business or you are managing some of them, Planable is a must-know online tool for managing your social media channels and keep in touch with the client as well.

Even though for many businesses, managing a social media page is like a daunting task and they hire an agency, most of the times the feedback is still needed: to make sure that their identity is there or just to keep an eye on the timeline. Planable managed to merge the perfect UI/UX with the content management and the client feedback in a very easy to use manner and the whole process is way more efficient and fast.

Pros:

The best way to keep in touch with your client and to organise your content!

You need to know it if you're a social media manager/agency!

Cons:

No cons for now.

Very simple to use and good product. I think it can be improved if you are allowed to have more social accounts in the same time.

It's really intuitive and easy to use. Keep up! But here is small thing to improve. This planner will be deferentially one of the greatest if you add an option to create posts in multiple languages.

Such a great tool - finally one product to combine everything you need to plan and post across a variety of social media channels!

I was given access to and tested Planable for a few days. I enjoyed it a lot, and it's a pity that such a great tool wasn't available back in the days when I worked in marketing. If I were, I would definitely use it.

Pros:

You can visualize how your posts will look directly on the targeted platform, and make the necessary adjustments.

Cons:

It's not as widely known and used. It deserves more.

Quick feedback: on the site it's not clear what this does exactly and how. I would also add a features page for people who dig into these 😉

I like two features: inviting teammates to approve posts and suggest edits, saving posts to public Facebook and Twitter pages that I do not own, so that these can be chosen to be published or not by the page's owner on their Planable account.

Pros:

Love their generous free-tier. Too good to be true.

Cons:

Bad UI and needs to be improved. No one wants a MarvelApp for social publishing. I need a Buffer-like UI here. No keyboard shortcuts.

Just digging into Planable, but already sold on it for client use. In a startup where everyone is contributing content, this will take away some anxiety from the process (for the n00bs) & make oversight easier.

This is definitely going to be useful for me!

Using it from the early begging. Most useful social media tool if u need to have your posts reviewed and approved by other team members.

nice UX, cool product!

Cool product, congrats for the hunt guys!

I'm interested to give this a try. I'm currently using HeyOrca, and while the planable price is definitely better it seems at this stage the HeyOrca platform is more built-out. I'm excited to see where planable goes from here.

I've worked in social media previously. We were using google slides and sheets, so we had the combined edit, but you have no idea how much of a hasstle it still was. Love the fact that it puts everything in context. I think a lot of brands don't realise how it would look. How do you make sure the right person approves the post? And when you say schedule, is that with another tool or embedded inside Planable?

Amazing social media marketing tool for both small and large teams. I've tried it and I must say that the ability to preview posts just as they appear in the social network, and the intuitive UI make it worth using even as for an individual non-marketer like me ;)
