OpenPlans

OpenPlans, a technology organization, advocates for digital democracy and builds open-source software to improve transportation systems. The job it does: scheduling posts, replying to comments and reporting across networks.

The natural audience is social and community managers. Alongside the main category they mention Project Management and Social Media. As a small product team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

OpenPlans is based in New York, New York and founded in 1999. You can read more at openplans.org.

Things worth asking about: which networks are supported and whether approvals are built in. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with OpenPlans, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
