PlanMaker is a spreadsheet program that is part of the SoftMaker Office suite. It is available on Microsoft Windows, MacOS, Linux and Android and iOS.

PlanMaker is largely similar to Microsoft Excel in function and workflow and uses the same file format .xlsx. The syntax of the formulas is identical, pivot tables are possible.{{cite journal|url=https://www.heise.de/select/ct/2018/14/1530580548252725 |title=Linux-Office-Duell - LibreOffice 6.0 vs. SoftMaker Office 2018 |journal=c't |year=2018 |volume=2018 |issue=14 |page=110 |accessdate=2021-05-06 |lang=de |last1=Brors |first1=Dieter }} Furthermore it can import SQLite databases.{{Cite news |last=Wischner |first=Stefan |date=2023-08-25 |title=Büropaket trifft KI: Test: SoftMaker Office 2024 und NX mit KI-Anbindung |language=de |volume=2023 |pages=98–101 |work=c't |issue=20 |url=https://www.heise.de/select/ct/2023/20/2317310580911733944 |access-date=2023-11-14 |issn=0724-8679}}

Macros and VBA scripts contained in .xlsm cannot be executed, but are retained when saving. BasicMaker provides a VBA-like scripting language under Windows for SoftMaker Office.
