## Reviews

### "A great tool, delivering many essential insights to business planning." — 4.0/5

> **Jo** | *19 November 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the way LivePlan has everything covered. Business planning, forecasting etc. It’s so time saving to be able to manipulate figures knowing that the long term effect on your plan is going to be accommodated.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. It’s great and regrettably I didn’t even use all of the functionality\!
> 
> I found that I had to re-learn some aspects of the platform if I left off using LivePlan for a while. This happens during the early stages of planning, as founders have to focus on so many different elements of their startups. Also, coming from a non tech background, my leaning curve has been very steep, if not vertical. At times, spending significant portions of my day familiarising myself with the various platforms that are out there (that others supporting and working with me want and do use) was frustrating, but unavoidable I guess.

### "LivePlan - A Great Business Plan Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Steven** | *21 October 2024* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A really easy to use platform.  The platform links the Business Plan with building a Pitch Deck, creating graphs to easily explain the detail of the plan.
> 
> **Cons**: The fact you have to pay extra for some functionality around finance is an issue.
> 
> I build many Business Plans for my clients and find LivePlan to be the easiest solution.

### "Powerful & User-Friendly, But Lacks Arabic Support & Advanced Customization" — 4.0/5

> **Mohammed** | *15 May 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Intuitive and visually appealing interface that makes working with numbers and charts enjoyable.  &#10;Exceptional reporting tools for creating business plans, financial reports, and presentations quickly.  &#10;AI-powered features that speed up plan creation by 10x—a game-changer\!
> 
> **Cons**: No native Arabic support, which remains a persistent hurdle despite two years of use.  &#10;Limited customization for dashboards/charts (e.g., no PowerPoint-like control for dynamic presentations).
> 
> Overall, LivePlan has been an excellent tool—simple, fast, and packed with smart features. The interactive dashboards and AI tools transformed how I approach business planning. However, the lack of multilingual support (especially Arabic) and advanced visualization controls keeps it from being perfect. I’d highly recommend it, but with hope for future updates to bridge these gaps\!

### "The Greatest Business Plan Software Ever" — 5.0/5

> **Andres** | *9 June 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like the most is the ability to see everything in one place. It's like looking at a table of contents. I look for what I'm looking for, see it, then I click on it, and tada, it's there. Exactly what I'm looking for.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like the least is setting up the outline. Sometimes the drag and drop doesn't work as good as I would like. Sometimes it drops in the wrong place, or it moves slightly, making it hard to manage.
> 
> Overall, I've been using it for over five years. I use it most of the time. It keeps me organized and it's easy to present to others.

### "Excellent business planning software" — 5.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: Is an excellent software and user friendly.Is an excellent software and user friendly.Is an excellent software and user friendly.Is an excellent software and user friendly.
> 
> **Cons**: You should have rate for CPAs that generate five or less Financial Projections or business plan per year.
