The honest comparison
SeatFinder vs the spreadsheet vs the paper chart

|---|---|---|---|
| Changes the night before | Edit once, live everywhere instantly | Re-send the file and hope | Start the chart over |
| Guests find their own seat | Yes, one link or QR scan | No, expect a queue at the door | No, expect a crowd at the chart |
| Keep-apart warnings | Automatic, on every move | Only if you remember | Only if you remember |
| Meal counts for the caterer | Tallied per table, printable | Pivot tables, good luck | Count by hand |
| Printing place cards | One click, alphabetical | Mail merge project | Handwritten, all of them |
| Cost | Free plan up to 80 guests, then $49 to $99 once per event | Free, plus your evenings | Free, plus a poster board |
