Information is based on a comparison of PerfectTablePlan v3.0.1 and SimpleSeating in January 2007.

Obviously we are biased, so we would encourage you to do the free trial of both. Before making your decision you might like to try some of the following in both:

• change the font size or typeface in the floor plan
• print the floor plan
• print a guest list
• add a circular table with 6 seats or a head table with 8 seats
• rotate a table after it has been placed
• rename a group you have created
• seat members of a group on separate tables
• check that friends from different groups are sitting on the same table
• work out the number of each meal required
• print place cards or table cards
