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.

Usability
It's easy to use. I think that's one of the key selling points. I've used trials of other social media management platforms, and they've been more difficult to introduce to my clients, which drives a wedge. Loomly has been fairly easy to introduce my clients to, therefore optimising review timelines and ease.

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.

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.

Alternatives Considered
I found Loomly, while more simple, to be the most worth the price. Especially because I specifically can view analytics on client accounts directly, there's no need for me to have it within my platform. However, I know this is crucial for a lot of people. If they're looking for that, I'd probably say another platform might be better. But for me, Loomly is perfect!

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