Planable vs. Publer

It needs the ability to save hashtags. Some of the other tools offer this, so I emailed Planable and asked them to consider adding it.

Where Publer is well suited: + Organisation of multiple social media accounts for when you have multiple brands + The integration of Google Maps makes it easy to organise multiple locations + Calendar with a nice overview makes it easy to see your social media planning for the following period of time Where it is less suited for: - Comparing competition and ideal posting time is quite a surplus in cost - No native Dutch version

• Plan posts on multiple platforms at once
• Approval workflow

• A unified drag-and-drop calendar with genuine native previews allows us to bulk-upload images or videos, shuffle posts between dates and platforms, and see exactly how each platform (FB, IG, TikTok, Threads, etc.) will display before we hit “Schedule.”
• Role-based approvals that streamline teamwork: interns draft, managers approve, and the audit trail ensures that nothing inconsistent slips through.
• Quick-glance analytics built right into the calendar, surface engagement spikes, best-time suggestions and post-level stats without exporting to another tool, so we can tweak campaigns on the spot.

• Add hashtags in the tool so you can save them for future use

• Some IG features are currently missing, like syncing with trending sounds, but I think that's more of an API limitation than a fault with Publer
• The website interface can be a bit challenging to navigate. It isn't quite as intuitive as I'd like with where things are placed.
• Some of the terms are confusing, like "recycling" and "recurring." I wish they'd combine these two particular posting options into one.
• I'd also love to see better integration with my personalized AI, trained on my business.

I love the tool, is simple and useful

It does what you need, but could have a bit more features for the price. $30 a month just to post things on Facebook or Instagram is a bit steep, given that that's all you can do.

Publer is overall pretty easy to use. You can schedule posts very easily, and we have found that new users can pick this up very easily. It could have an improved dashboard and UI that shows the different sections more clearly, but it has still been easy to use overall.

The pages do load very quick but in the the iPad form

Emailed them a month ago to add hashtags, but they didn't add the functionality yet. Given that the product has stayed exactly the same since, I'm guessing the developers don't want to add this feature so I give the support a rating of 1.

Every time I have contacted Publer, I get answers right away

Cheaper, however, Kontentino does have the ability to save hashtags.

We previously used SocialBee and also evaluated Metricool. SocialBee could not edit video directly in the app and couldn't auto-generate captions. Its mobile app didn't support comment management or story link stickers. Metricool was simpler to navigate but felt rigid — it couldn't recycle posts on a set schedule or allow proper content labeling. We chose Publer because it offers content labeling, an intuitive interface we quickly became comfortable with, RSS feed integration for both our brands, AI-assisted post creation with a custom brand voice, and an unlimited media library. It's also approximately 2,000 CZK/year cheaper than SocialBee. The Professional plan covers everything our team needs for scheduling and collaboration across all platforms.

I just used the web integration

I think this is well designed product. I really enjoy that I am able to learn it quick, integrate all the socials very easily

• Ability to post on any social media platform with 1 click. It adjusts the layout for you, pictures, adding action buttons, etc.

• I can on-charge the price of the subscription within my package, so I can charge it out for what I want, allowing me to make some profit
• Every one of my clients has loved using it, so they are more inclined to keep using our social media services
• Publer helps my business to look professional
