A lighter Planning Pod alternative for seating

Planning Pod is a broad event-management suite with invoicing, registration, and floor plans on a monthly subscription. If seating is all you need, that’s a lot of overhead.

Why people choose SeatSorted instead

  • Just the seating chart — no suite to subscribe to.
  • No monthly fee to build and print.
  • Start in seconds, no onboarding.

Both tools are worth a look — pick what fits your event. If “free, in the browser, no account” is what you’re after, give SeatSorted a try.
