Frequently asked
SeatPlan.io vs Tableplan.io: common questions
- Does SeatPlan.io produce a visual floor plan or just a spreadsheet?
- SeatPlan.io creates an actual visual floor plan: drag tables to position them in the room and place guests at specific seats. Tableplan.io is a guest-list organiser — its own site recommends handing the data to a designer to produce the final visual.
- Is SeatPlan.io priced per event like Tableplan.io's £15?
- No. SeatPlan.io's Save & Manage tier is £8/$8/€8 one-time covering one chart, and the Event Manager subscription at £25/$25/€25 per month covers unlimited events.
- Can I scale tables to actual room dimensions?
- Yes. Set your venue's exact width and height in metres and SeatPlan.io renders to scale, so spacing between tables matches reality.
- Are SeatPlan.io's exports presentation-ready?
- Yes. The PDF export is an A3 floor plan ready to print or send to your venue. No extra design work required.
