Features
Planellio brings together booking, CRM, client portals, venue portals, staff portals, proposals, contracts, payments, reporting, automation and delivery workflows so event businesses can run from one platform instead of a stack of disconnected tools.
Built for event businesses
Planellio is used by DJs, photo booth businesses, event hire teams, wedding suppliers, venue-led businesses and multi-user event operations. The common need is not just taking bookings. It is controlling everything that happens before, during and after those bookings.
Music requests, planning forms, client portal workflows, deposits, balance reminders and contractor assignments.
Photo booth CRM, selfie booth software workflows, magic mirror software support, 360 booth software options, template choices and print selections.
Venue portal access, preferred supplier workflows, venue calendars, venue invoices and booking visibility.
Asset allocation, inventory visibility, delivery planning and reduced double-booking risk.
Client communication, task management, project workflows and operational handovers.
Lead assignment, staff scheduling, reporting, automation and role-based operational clarity.
Booking
Planellio's booking features are built for event businesses that sell real services with real operational complexity. Instead of treating a booking like a simple diary entry, the platform connects the commercial journey to availability, packages, assets, staff and delivery logic.
The website booking journey supports businesses that want clients to move from enquiry to action without friction. Availability checking helps teams stay realistic about what can actually be delivered. Package builder logic helps businesses sell complete services rather than piecemeal quotes. Multi-day bookings support events that do not fit neatly into a single slot. Booking cloning helps with repeated or similar jobs. Booking imports reduce the pain of switching systems when live work already exists.
Guide visitors from enquiry to purchase in a more structured client flow.
Use live logic linked to what the business can actually deliver.
Combine services, extras and upgrades in a clearer sales journey.
Support events that span several dates or delivery windows.
Reuse proven booking structures for repeatable work.
Bring existing live bookings across without rebuilding by hand.

CRM
Planellio works as an event CRM rather than a generic pipeline tracker. That means the CRM stays useful after the initial enquiry because it is tied to quotes, proposals, bookings, communication, planning and delivery context.
Lead management becomes clearer when notes, reminders and call logging live next to the enquiry. Messaging becomes easier to follow when the team can see the customer story in one place. Lead assignment matters for multi-user businesses that want the right opportunities handled by the right person. Client history matters when repeat bookings and venue relationships create long-term value.
Track new opportunities from first contact to confirmed booking.
Keep important detail next to the client and booking record.
Reduce missed follow-up with clearer task visibility.
Record key conversations without relying on memory.
Keep communication closer to the workflow it affects.
Support cleaner ownership across growing sales teams.

Client portal
The client portal is where a lot of event businesses either look professional or create friction. Planellio helps businesses give clients a simpler place to complete planning tasks, sign contracts, review payments and keep bookings moving.
For DJs, this can include music requests and event questionnaires. For photo booth businesses, it can include template selection, overlay approvals, print choices and client-facing booking visibility. For every business type, the aim is the same: reduce scattered emails and give clients a clearer next step.
Collect the planning details you need before event day.
Keep approvals and paperwork inside the client journey.
Support deposits, balances and payment tracking.
Help DJs collect the right information without email chaos.
Let photo booth clients choose overlays, prints and design options.
Make it easier for clients to see what is booked and what is next.

Venue portal
Venue portal software is one of Planellio's strongest differentiators. Many platforms can help a supplier manage a booking, but fewer help businesses work properly with venues, preferred supplier relationships and venue-led booking activity.
Planellio supports venue login workflows, venue bookings, venue calendars, venue invoices and broader venue collaboration. This is particularly useful for businesses that rely on venue referrals, managed venue access or direct venue-led commercial workflows.
Give venues a dedicated way to access relevant information.
Support booking activity that starts or moves through venue relationships.
Keep scheduling visible for the people who need it.
Keep venue-specific commercial steps connected to the workflow.
Support agreed terms and trusted venue partnerships more cleanly.
Reduce back-and-forth and keep shared context stronger.

Staff portal
Staffing is often one of the biggest cracks in basic booking software. Planellio helps event businesses go beyond simple notes and create clearer staff operations with login access, availability, job assignments and scheduling visibility.
This matters for businesses that use contractors, second shooters, booth attendants, contract DJs, setup crews or venue support teams. Availability should be easier to see. Job assignments should be easier to hand over. Standby bookings should be easier to manage when cover is needed.
Give staff a clearer way to access the work that relates to them.
See who can work before assignments become a problem.
Share the right event information with the right people.
Keep backup coverage and contingency planning more organised.
Support external staff without losing operational clarity.
Build a stronger operational picture as the team grows.

Reporting
Reporting should not stop at surface-level sales numbers. Event businesses need visibility into revenue, lead source quality, deferred revenue, asset usage and team workload if they want to scale with control.
Planellio supports reporting that gives businesses a clearer picture of what is happening across sales and operations. Revenue reporting matters for commercial control. Lead source reporting helps identify where profitable enquiries actually come from. Deferred revenue matters for businesses with future bookings and staged payments. Asset reporting matters when equipment availability affects fulfilment and profit.
See the commercial picture more clearly as bookings grow.
Understand which channels and partners bring the right work.
Keep future booking value in view, not just today’s cash movement.
Understand where stock and equipment affect delivery pressure.
See how operational demand is distributed across staff.
Connect sales, finance and delivery signals in one platform.

Automation
Automation is one of the clearest ways event businesses gain capacity without immediately adding headcount. Planellio's automation engine is designed to support workflow automation around the jobs teams repeat every week: reminders, handovers, status changes, follow-up and operational actions that depend on specific conditions.
The workflow builder uses triggers, conditions and actions so businesses can create more consistent processes. That helps teams reduce manual checking, improve response times and keep the client journey moving without constant intervention.
Shape repeatable automation around the way the business actually works.
Start workflows when booking or client events happen.
Control what happens based on the status or context of the job.
Send updates, assign work or move the process forward automatically.
Reduce chasing around reminders, balances and incomplete tasks.
Make transitions between sales and delivery more reliable.

Specialist workflows
Some of Planellio's strongest SEO and commercial angles come from how specific the platform can be. Photo booth businesses need more than generic event CRM software, which is why terms like photo booth client portal, photo booth contract software, photo booth payment software, photo booth booking calendar and photo booth inventory management belong in the conversation. DJs need music request workflows, questionnaires and contractor visibility. Photographers, videographers, wedding suppliers and rental businesses all search through their own lens rather than through one broad software category.
That is why the strongest next pages for many buyers are the specialist pages rather than the broad category page first.
Comparison and guides
Topical authority grows faster when commercial pages sit next to comparison content and practical guides. That helps search engines understand the wider subject area, and it gives buyers more entry points depending on whether they are comparing software or trying to solve a business problem.
