The best platform for posting to Instagram.
Hi friend. Today we are talking about my favorite visual planner and scheduling for Instagram. Navigating the world of Instagram management tools can be overwhelming, especially when each app comes with its own set of features and limitations. One of the popular choices for scheduling and managing Instagram posts is Planoly. In this blog post, we’ll take an in-depth look at the pros and cons of using Planoly for your Instagram content strategy.
Pros
1. User-Friendly Interface
Planoly offers a clean and straightforward user interface that makes it easy for beginners to get the hang of the platform quickly.
2. Visual Planning
The app provides a visual planner, allowing you to see how your feed will look once your scheduled posts go live. This is extremely helpful for maintaining a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing Instagram feed.
3. Multi-Platform Support
Not only does Planoly allow you to schedule Instagram posts, but it also supports scheduling for other platforms like Pinterest. This is great for users who manage multiple social media accounts.
4. Analytics
Planoly provides insightful analytics that help you understand your audience’s behavior, engagement rates, and the best times to post. This can be invaluable for fine-tuning your Instagram strategy.
5. Drafts and Placeholders
The ability to save drafts and use placeholders makes it easier to plan out your content calendar well in advance.
6. Auto-Post Feature
Planoly supports auto-posting, which means you can schedule your content and forget about it. The app will post it for you at the scheduled time, freeing you up to focus on other tasks.
Cons
1. Limited Free Plan
While Planoly does offer a free plan, its features are quite limited. To unlock the full range of services, you’ll need to invest in a paid plan.
2. No In-App Editing
Unlike some other platforms, Planoly doesn’t offer in-app photo editing features. This means you’ll need to edit your photos separately before uploading them to Planoly for scheduling.
3. No Multi-Account Switching on Free Plan
If you manage multiple Instagram accounts, the free version won’t allow you to switch between them easily. You’ll need to log out and log back in or upgrade to a paid plan.
4. Limited Stories Scheduling
Though Planoly allows you to plan your Instagram Stories, the scheduling options are not as robust as some might like.
5. May Take Time to Sync
Users have reported that it may take some time for Planoly to sync with Instagram, especially if there are updates or changes made directly in the Instagram app.
Planoly offers a solid set of features for Instagram management, from visual planning to analytics. However, to take full advantage of its capabilities, you might need to invest in a paid plan. Before committing, it’s a good idea to assess your specific needs and how they align with what Planoly has to offer.
