 I’ve been a wedding planner in Houston for over a decade, and I’ve used Planning Pod the entire time. They help me manage most aspects of the business from RSVP Management to Timelines and Invoicing to floor plans it’s all handled inside their easy to use software. I’ve tried other CRMs in the events industry and I end up staying with Planning Pod because I appreciate how they continue to add new features to stay current, and their support team and video tutorials are always there to help with any issues as they come up. Planning Pod definitely helps me be a better event planner for my clients!

Planning Pod is completely worth the monthly fee, and we love that it allows us to be completely green!
