A seating-aware SmartDraw alternative
SmartDraw is a general diagramming tool. You can draw a seating chart in it, but it doesn’t understand guests and seats — every assignment is manual.
SmartDraw
General diagram and flowchart software.
Worth staying with if that is the shape of what you need.

Why people choose SeatSorted instead
- Understands tables, seats, and a guest list — not just shapes.
- Click-to-seat instead of manual labeling.
- Tracks who’s unseated automatically.
- Free, with no diagramming learning curve.
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.
