“I had a legacy plan that allowed me multiple users, tons of pages and more for a low price, then they "upgraded" their software and suddenly they required me to sign up for a new plan at twice the price for half the features. And the mandatory upgrade was terrible, incompatible with mobile, glitchy, and half of the time I couldn't log in.“

### "My Right Hand"

April 30, 2022

5.0

My experience has been exceptional. Always get feedback and help when needed.

Pros

I use this daily for the 19 accounts I manage. It's value for money!

Cons

The part I like least is not being able to schedule stories or reels. Not to pleased with the change in how you find content that has occurred over the last week.

Reason for choosing Post Planner

What you offered for the price, the fact that you answer questions quickly, and are always helpful.

### "Why did I never know about this?! (TREASURE FOUND!)"

March 5, 2025

5.0

Fast response - super great service - and really feel like I'm heard and valued. In a small nonprofit having PostPlanner is like having another employee! A huge thank you for answering all my questions and really working with me to make this work for us!

Pros

Uh, well everything! I was doing this process by hand and posting to various social media platforms and this is BAM done. So much time savings and the price can't be beat in the marketplace. I am thrilled to be using it and it has really freed up my time and allowed me to actually plan ahead! That's huge!

Cons

I'm new at the interface so I can only say that when I recycle posts I'd like to see them shown in my posting calendar so I don't duplicate - but I'm thinking I'm probably doing something wrong.

### "Buyer Beware. Untrustworthy. Policy of charging three months in advance with no refund is just not good business."

November 8, 2016

1.0

A company worth its salt would not have to employ a policy of charging for their service three months in advance of the renewal date with no email notice and NO possibility of a refund. Oh - but that's in their terms around the 1300 word mark so read carefully and buyer beware! This company is a great example of how unethical companies take advantage of consumers. I manage several social media accounts and purchased a membership for $60 in Feb 2016 because their advertising promised that I could generate more posts for my clients with increased engagement in a shorter amount of time. During my first trial, I was not very impressed with the quality of the posts but was not ready to totally give up. Months later I got a chance to go back to it. I really put a lot of time and effort this time into pouring through post, article, and other suggestions to find something of value that wasn't just "fluff." Many of the posts and article suggestions were too generic or not appropriate for use with business social media accounts. I could only use about one of every 15-20 posts I had to look at. When I tried to save custom searches, they ended up mostly producing ZERO suggestions with any stars (more stars indicate higher levels of predicted engagement). I have clients in several different industries, so it is quite odd that nothing popular could be found for any of my custom searches. It was all - "have a great day" puppies, and "you can do it" cats. Anything that wasn't along those lines would not ever have any stars. Now I know there is popular content for the industries I serve since I work in social media every day. I did end up posting some of these silly "fluff" posts because PostPlanner promises that your engagement will go up. Not only did I get less engagement from their posts, I got my first spam complaint on facebook :( I decided that I had burned through way too much time with this program and I had a few more months until it expired so I set a reminder to give it one more shot before I canceled. Lo and behold, in November 2016, I was charged $93.37 by PostPlanner. I was taken by surprise. "This must be a mistake," I thought. I was in no way prepared or willing to pay anything for this silly service let alone almost $100! I do a lot of commerce over the internet and am even a web hosting vendor myself. So I think, "No Problem." I figured I would just tell them I didn't intend to purchase the service renewal and request a refund. SURELY, that would not be a big deal since THERE IS NO MONEY OUT OF THEIR POCKET and since it goes through PayPal, it would literally take seconds to log in to PayPal and click the "Refund" button (as I know from personal experience with my business). But I was denied stating that their plan renews anytime within 90 days before your due date and it is NON-REFUNDABLE once it goes through. After a few emails back and forth (which were obviously boilerplate because I see the same responses on this site), the last correspondence is (and I quote): "Hi Michelle- I'm very sorry you are unhappy. Our policies are very clear in our terms. Regards, Leeann" Yes - it IS stated in their policy. This policy is accessible from a link at the bottom of their website and start at about word 1200. Some will argue that it is my fault and I did not read the 73 paragraphs consisting of over 5600 words outlining all of the terms in the middle of my work day when I was trying to increase my productivity. And they would be correct. But I am also a business owner and a very active online consumer. I believe that we should be able to have just a little tiny bit of trust when we make a purchase. When a company puts some very non-standard early billing terms in their agreement that have no reason or justification and just plain don't make sense, it seems like it is only a sorry tactic to increase their revenue. I have in the past refunded fees charged for something (that did not cost me anything) if there was a misunderstanding. Even if it was clear in my terms. This is so rigid and outside of my business experiences over the last 15 years. Personally, I go above and beyond to make sure my customers understand their billing! If I had to charge three months in advance for something, you better believe I would send an email or something. Just so I wouldn't have to deal with all of these bad reviews if for nothing else! This is just bad business and very unethical to me. I have never in my life heard of charging someone so far in advance for a virtual service and then refusing refunds! This is why I am writing this. This is so obviously an attempt to rip people off.

Pros

There are no pros. The quality of the service is low, my engagement did not go up, I received my first spam complaint in over 5 years of working with social media for business.

Cons

Product usefulness is low, the cost is high, billing policy is unnecessarily unfair at best and unethical at worst.

### "PostPlanner will make your life easier"

March 20, 2025

5.0

Overall my experience was great. Easy learning curve. PostPlanner has brought me back from the brink of extinction on posting for our business. I love how it easily lets you plan and add for future posts. I also love the curated content although I am just starting to use that.

Pros

There are several things I like about post planner: 1. Ease of use. 2. It is feature rich. 3. Competitively priced.

Cons

Thusfar, I am unable to think of any cons.

### "Our latest ride in the world of social media management"

July 15, 2022

5.0

Pros

It is competitively priced. We've used products in the past with comparable features but the pricing always bore down on the already slim budget. Post Planner does that and more. We are yet to use the complete level of features that it offers but all in all, from planning to scheduling across all our various platforms has been a breeze. Never has a post been missed or has required manual intervention. To us, that makes it an invaluable product that has long paid for itself.

Cons

Our initial offering with the Starter plan provided us with 300 posts per month. Dropping to 100 made it impossible to continue on the same plan and we ended up upgrading to the next best plan.

### "Amazing Product and Customer Service"

January 20, 2021

5.0

The system is easy to set up and use. There are lots of options and additional helps. The support from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] is amazing! Highly recommended.

Pros

The ability to plan posts for specific times and purposes and set up a library of items I want to share with my followers. Post Planner has a vast library to help me with posts to keep good, relevant and encouraging content to my followers. I also love the evergreen option to allow posts to re-post at a later time.

Cons

Initially was disappointed because I couldn't use it with Instagram and was going to cancel the service for another, more expensive service that did not have the extensive library. Connected with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] who was already in the process of adding the Instagram option and let me know how to be able to use it as I was wanting - so no actual "least" aspect. It is a great system!

### "Great social media management service"

June 23, 2022

5.0

I switched from another service because Post Planner is cheaper and allows for a higher number of recycled posts than its competitor. So far I'm having a very good experience. Posts are very easy to save and are published timely and immediately recycled.

Pros

What I like most is the fact it allows recycling your posts indefinitely with a much lower price than its competitors.

Cons

I wish the posts were counted as one when the same post is scheduled on multiple social media. I also wish I could move a scheduled post back to draft and/or replace/add another social media to it, without having to recreate it from scratch.

[RecurPost](https://www.capterra.com/p/186683/RecurPost/)

Post Planner is cheaper. Its least expensive plan costs half that of RecurPost with a higher number of recycled posts.

### "Post Planner - Living Up To Its Name"

April 24, 2022

4.0

Very happy. It has not only helped me manage multiple accounts & twitter handles easily, but has ensured that I reach over a million impressions on a single Twitter handle within a year and a half of its initiation!

Pros

Like the ability to create streams of posts (for industries, topics, subjects with Star ratings depending on their popularity). An ideal time saving feature to have popular posts for shares and gain interest within your channel community and grow.

Cons

Drag & Drop facility can be improved, specially of posts that can be changed within a day (or across days) and ability of seeing the Time change when moving the post within a day to get an approximate 'fit' for changing the Post.

Reason for choosing Post Planner

At a better price-point for ease and relevance of posts to be garnered for reposts as well as integration with Canva for creation of posts.

### "Very great app for finding and scheduling content"

March 3, 2019

5.0

Very positive​. I use it every day for posting on Twitter (and sometimes Facebook).

Pros

\- It's an all-in-one app. There's no need to go elsewhere to find great content. You can find it within the app and then schedule it with just a few clicks also within the app. - There are a few options on how to schedule content. You can create a schedule and just drop the content into the queue, or you can schedule the content to publish at a certain​ time, with​ the option to have it repeat. - The "recycle" feature​, which can add your content back to the end of the queue once it's been published.

Cons

\- Posting is limited to Facebook and Twitter - The content search feature is limited and doesn't allow users to search for content that doesn't have the search keyword in the title

Very good! By far the cheapest, and when I have trouble, the customer service team has been excellent. The user experience has vastly improved as well since I began using it a few years ago.

Pros

The ability to scheduled thousands of posts across social networks is priceless. Post Planner is also continually improving and open to suggestions. Their customer service is excellent.

Cons

I'd like to be able to delete posts from my queue after they've been posted, which is not currently available.

April 21, 2022

I've been with Post Planner from the beginning and the customer service can't be matched. If I ask for a feature, they make it happen! They are extremely attentive to their customers.

Pros

The recycling feature and the ability to create my own custom feeds of content. Also caption saving!

Cons

When I schedule a post, it should default to the account I'm on, not alphabetically. I accidentally schedule content to the first alphabetical page all the time and that's annoying.

### "It gets the job done, but honestly, it's all I ever used, so it is difficult to make a comparison"

April 22, 2022

4.0

Did I mention, PP is the only service I have ever used? I have been here, for what, 4 or 5 years? They are doing something right. I do like like the functionality, once you learn it, and become comfortable with it.

Pros

There are a lot of features, and you do have the ability to have a number of channels. I only need a few. I use for my Facebook group/page which is about travel in Northern California. It's pretty niched. The customer service is outstanding. Anytime I have a question, it gets answered quickly. Thank you for that.

Cons

As I mentioned in my title, this is the only software for this industry that I have ever used, so I cannot compare to others. It was not easy setting up and it took some time to figure out. Often times when looking for new "streams," or channels, maybe, there is no content. That can be frustrating, so, if there is no content (the FB page and outdated) why does it show up?

### "The content folders are a lifesaver"

August 14, 2017

5.0

Pros

The content folders are an absolute lifesaver. I've consolidated all content into one location instead of spending hours and hours a week running from tools like Hootsuite to Feedly to even an Excel spreadsheet. This saves time by letting me consolidate and organize, then it scores all of the content so I can easily choose the top performing content and schedule it for posting. The star ratings take any questioning out of the posting process. I know exactly what's worked and in a matter of moments can schedule to social.

Cons

I haven't been able to find much real estate related content. Would help to add additional feeds or pages that National brands can use.

### "Beware, will charge your card ahead of time, and will try to upgrade you to top tier and charge your card for it later (will not refund)"

August 28, 2016

1.0

Had Post Planner for over a year. The service started off well, but then I got a charge out of the blue for my annual license. Contacted customer service to get the charge refunded, they said that in their terms they can charge you months before your annual re-subscribe date. They refused the refund, and said they upgraded me to their top tier. I said I didn't want their top tier and wanted a refund which they refused again.

Pros

Decent content to share.

Cons

horrible business practices and customer service.

Response from Post Planner

October 17, 2016

Hi Dean, I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with the app and had some confusion around the annual plans. As mentioned within email communication, our annual plans do renew within 90 days of the 12 month anniversary to avoid any lapses due to credit card billing. This includes a prorated amount. You were never charged for an upgrade that you didn't agree to, and in fact we gave you the next level plan at no additional cost, a significant savings to you. We're launching a whole new app (ground level up rebuild) which includes additional social networks, content, mobile app and more. I hope you'll come back and give things a try. Sincerely, Rebekah

Pros

This simple app has helped our business grow. The search provides us with interesting, relevant new content each day so that we post more, and more widely, with more likes and retweets. The ease of the app has increased both the range and size of our share audience, bringing attention and new people to our company. If, like us, you have a media product that you need to keep in front of people, this clean, easy-to-use app will help you a lot.

Cons

Presently, the app is limited to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. Instagram access would be nice addition.

### "Huge Time Saver & Helps with Consistency"

April 8, 2021

5.0

Post planner helps solve the problem of wanting and needing to be present and consistently providing value to your followers on social media, but without having to be online every second of every day. I love that my followers can count on when my content will appear!

Pros

Post Planner helps save me SO much time for my business. I typically plan out content a week- 10 days in advance (but sometimes a couple weeks if I have things going on). It connects so easily with Canva to allow for that personalized touch that makes your content stand out! Additionally, I love how easy it is to set up a schedule for when you want your posts to be scheduled, view the posts that have already posted, adjust or move around any planned posts simply by clicking and dragging. It allows me the consistency I need to be a business owner while not allowing content creation to take up my life! There are a ton of great ideas for content too which is how I started but now I create most of the content myself but the platform still makes my business run so much smoother! Couldn't live without it!

Cons

The only downside is that you can't upload your own videos or multiple image posts for IG yet, but I think that's in the works!
