Why planners switch
One plan, everything linked
Seat a guest and the caterer’s list updates. Add a supplier and their arrival lands on the run sheet. Change the layout and the hire list follows.
Checks as you go
Walkways, exits, capacity, marquee poles and sightlines are checked live, not after the fact.

Questions
Can I bring a plan across from GoodEvent?
Export your plan as a PDF or image from GoodEvent and import it into Plotline as the venue drawing, then lay the furniture out on top.
What does GoodEvent do that Plotline doesn’t?
Today GoodEvent has a larger asset library, a ceiling view, comments and saved templates. If you need something missing from Plotline, use Request item or Feedback in the app.
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan includes every planning feature for one event, saved in your browser, with no signup. Exports carry a small watermark. Pro (US$39/month) adds unlimited events, clean exports, sync across devices and live share links for clients and crew.
