Planbutlr vs Doodle

More than just a date picker

Doodle is a popular tool for quickly finding a date. It's good at what it does: collecting availability and picking a time. But when you're planning a full event, you often need more than just a date. Planbutlr combines date polling with expense splitting, carpooling, checklists, and more, so you have everything in one place.
