Plaky Review: Free Boards, Paid Features and Pricing
Plaky gives teams shared boards for work items, statuses and project details. You can begin with a blank board, a template or a CSV, then adapt fields and views to the process. That makes it a useful candidate for bringing work out of disconnected lists into a common place the team can maintain.
Its Free plan has broad capacity for members and boards, with paid options for privacy and visual schedules. Explore a board based on your current work to see which fields and views would make progress clearer.
Boards first, with schedules when needed
The core working model is a board of items and their details. A team can decide what each status means and which fields describe the work, then use views to examine it in different ways. Starting from CSV can provide an initial route from an existing list, although the accuracy of imported information should be checked before the team relies on it.
Pro and Enterprise include Gantt. Its documented scope is visualizing dates and timelines, useful for seeing scheduled work in relation to other items. The guide does not establish dependency links or automatic rescheduling, and subitem time ranges are not shown. It also marks mobile Gantt as coming soon. Evaluate it as a visual schedule on the documented platforms; if dependency-driven planning is essential, ask for that behavior to be demonstrated specifically.
Private boards and spaces become useful when a shared system needs separate access for different work. They are paid additions rather than part of the broad Free capacity.
Plaky pricing: Free, Pro and Enterprise
Free allows unlimited users, spaces, boards, items and views. It includes six fields per board, seven days of activity history, single-board dashboards and 10MB per file.
US-selected Pro pricing is $3.99 per seat per month annually or $4.99 monthly. Pro adds unlimited fields, private boards and views, Gantt, 15-board dashboards, 1,000 monthly automation actions and 25MB per file.
Enterprise is $8.99 per seat per month annually or $10.99 monthly, adding 30-board dashboards, unlimited automations, SSO and 100MB per file. Active or invited members occupy paid seats; each paid seat includes up to five viewers. Price the invited team, not just people who have begun using it.
Dedicated success support requires 120 Pro seats or 50 Enterprise seats. Regional currency can vary, and the CAKE bundle is a separate purchase. Confirm the applicable offer and help available for your actual team size.
Time tracking connects to Clockify
Plaky's documented time workflow uses Clockify across all plans for owners, admins and members. A board owner connects an existing Clockify project. Both must be in the same CAKE organization, and the user needs a Clockify workspace.
Timer and manual entries synchronize in both directions, while time reports live in Clockify. This can keep recorded effort associated with the work board, but it requires the connected product and the right organizational setup. Plaky alone should not be treated as a complete native time-and-billing system.
The integration help directory also documents Pumble and the API. Check the actions and any API limits needed for your workflow rather than assuming either a large native marketplace or that unlisted connections are impossible.
Verdict: a board workspace with room to start
Plaky is worth considering when the immediate need is shared work visibility and adaptable project details. Its Free board and member capacity allows a team to explore that working model, while the paid plans offer specific reasons to upgrade: more fields, private work and Gantt views.
Asana provides another route to assigned projects and personal follow-through, with paid timelines and rules. ClickUp combines tasks, documents, chat and native time recording in its configurable workspace. Use the project management comparison to weigh those broader coordination approaches.
Create a Plaky board for one active process, check whether six fields cover its essential details, and connect Clockify if recorded effort matters. Move to a paid evaluation when privacy or visual scheduling becomes part of the requirement.
