It's been a while since I blogged about how awesome Plottr is. I mentioned it way back when I first got my Surface Go as a travel computer, and again when I did a review of the Surface Go. But somehow I've never blogged about their awesomeness as a standalone post, even though I meant to.
TL;DR: Plottr is increasing their prices in early April, which is what instigated the purchase that made me decide to write this post. If you have been considering trying it out, click here to get Plottr now!
Also, their customer service is awesome.
Note: This post includes affiliate links, but only because I genuinely believe in this software, and wouldn't mind getting a few bucks back for recommending it.
I initially bought Plottr when they offered a discount as part of the prize package for "winning" NaNoWriMo. I decided that I had enough going on in my novel series that I needed a series bible in a way that Scrivener couldn't do for me. I liked the visual interface of Plottr, so I decided to try it.
And wowwww was I blown away. Plottr has so many features and they're ever expanding. I can plot individual books, upload covers, set up character sheets and other notes and indicate which installments they appear in, and then export everything into Scrivener so that all the pertinent information is automagically loaded into Scrivener project for each novel in the series that I write.
Fast forward to last spring. My dad was planning a trip and asked me to go with him, so I bought the Surface Go with the intention of putting Scrivener and Plottr on it so that I could work on the trip. Of course I'd only gotten a license for one computer for a year with Plottr, so I had to upgrade my license in order to make it work.
I reached out to customer service to see if I could get the upgraded license prorated, and they upgraded me with my original NaNoWriMo discount, plus restarted my year. I set it all up so that I could save my files to Dropbox and have them accessible from either computer.
Fast forward to now. Plottr sent out emails recently warning us that the prices would be going up soon, so if we wanted to upgrade to Lifetime (no more annual fees!) we should do so before early April. My license period hasn't expired yet, so I reached out to see how to streamline the upgrade... and they sent me a link with another prorated amount.
Honestly, between the Facebook group, the regular updates, the tutorial videos, and Plottr customer service, the support for this product is beyond phenomenal. I'm not sorry at all that I bought the lifetime license.
If you're interested in a powerful series management tool, I highly recommend getting Plottr before prices go up next month!
