Mass Planner is another social media management tool. Today in this review I'd like to show you how this tool may make your "social life" little easier.
Do you enjoy your social media engagement? I can't say I enjoy mine. It bothers me. Like many others, I use my social media accounts primarily to promote my business. Knowing it's pretty essential I can get obsessed with it. I could spend hours each day surfing one media to the next, smartphone to desktop, posting, liking...
"You just followed me 6 hours ago and now already unfollowed, thank you very much. Are you a bot?" What an exhausting way to spend the entire Sunday morning, look at my phone... Battery 23%.
Mass Planner Review
Mass Planner is a Windows based software to schedule your posts and automate your follow/unfollow, share-postings to groups, messages to your new friends and followers. It supports 7 major social media networks; Facebook, Google+, Pinterest, Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn and Instagram.
For $9.95 per month, you can have any of these networks set up in your Mass Planner up to 12 accounts profiles in total but restricted to 2 profiles per each platform (huh!?)
Meaning if you have two profiles for each of the 7 social platforms, that'll be 14 altogether, right? But you can create up to 12.
If you have more than 2 profiles, for example 3 x Twitter accounts, Mass Planner only allows you to operate 2 of them.
However there's a better option. You pay 6 months in advance for $44.95 ($7.49 per month), and you're allowed to add up to 24 social accounts, 4 accounts for each social network.
What Mass Planner Can Do
Mass Planners can automate various activities. It will;
- Schedule your posts (except Instagram)

- Show summary of your posts with statistics
- Back up and protect your campaign posts in case of errors

Instagram is slightly different, the app only allows you to post images on your phone or tablet, therefore all that Mass Planner can do is to automatically follow, follow-back and unfollow, auto-like and auto-comment.
You can also let Mass Planner automatically phone-verify the profiles using smspva.com.
Now there are a few "thumbs-downs" with Mass Planner;
Windows Only
Mass Planner is a software installed in your PC, and it won't work on Mac or Linux. It suggests that Mac users can still install virtual machine or get a VPS (virtual private server) service, but that's just not practical. It will be good in the future if Mass Planner becomes web-based and usable on other operating systems.
Paypal Only
As mentioned above, there are two options; pay monthly ($9.95 per month) or pay 6 months in advance with a discount ($44.95 for 6 months). But if you don't have a Paypal account and need to pay by credit card, the only option is to pay 6 months in advance.
5 Days Money Back Guarantee
Mass Planner says it offers 5 days free trial, but it's actually not - you must pay upon signing up. But it guarantees to pay you back if you decide to cancel within 5 days.
