Very helpful; thank you! I was gifted an Amica, and I like it very much. But for some reason, I always thought I'd prefer the Compagna! Watching this, I think I actually like the Amica better. I like the foamy structure to it, too. And the width feels just right...roomy but not bulky.
Aww man, I was hoping you said you liked the Compagna better so I could try to buy the black & orange Amica from you 😉. I'm waiting impatiently for them to restock that particular bi-color. Great comparison video!!
So glad I found your video. I was sold on the Compagna until I saw this. I too thought the back wraparound pocket was something I absolutely needed and do prefer the softer leather but your points against are extremely valid. If only I could afford both! Thanks so much. PS I’ve never seen another planner with that leather flyleaf before. I just love that touch
I agree your voice is amazing, perhaps I would have paid attention in school if my teacher spoke like that :-) Great video and exactly what I was looking for
A well thought through comparison. I am not that OCD but clearly get the points of your preferred choice. I hope your planner serves you well over a longer time.
Feld Effekt I’m too OCD at times, a weakness of mine. I have been in the Amica for awhile now and it’s completely perfect in every way to me. I have tried the Campaign over and over again, hoping it will work eventually, and I just can’t love it 🙁 It’s a beautiful planner, I just couldn’t make it work for me.
Миллион Блокнотов That’s a great solution but on top I usually use lots of decorative bows and clips and it would get extremely crowded. Hope that makes sense. 😊
Love your comparison and I was extremely sold on the Amica up until you mentioned that there was not a back pocket....I have the pocket Compagna and enjoy being able to fold full size paper and hide it in the back pocket. The medium Compagna back pocket would of course be much roomier for full size sheets. Thank you so much for sharing that very thorough review.
That's why I'm glad I mentioned it as a plus for the Compagna. Some people can give up the pocket, others can't. I totally understand the need for it ❤️
3.16: I like most: 'But I do!' This 'I do!' is a great insurance against all the insights on the part of a wild marketing with its never-ending: Buy me! Buy me! Buy me! (Not in this case, of course.)
Thank you for the great comparison video! Your video is so thorough and I enjoyed it! Did you decide to sell it? Or did your husband get good use of it?!
Thank you so much for this video Diana, I had been waiting for this video to make a decision and of course I have it, I wonder, could you make a video of how you change the original rings to the gold ones?
+DoodleDeeDesigns to be honest though, the tabs on these dividers look particularly large - larger than usual. I have 2 Compagnas and the divider tabs don't stick out as much, and don't hit the pen loop. I've noticed that some Etsy sellers make their tabs bigger than others.
+UA-camMaven yes I have to agree, these seemed larger than most so it's more obvious. I did try smaller and it's just slightly better. I think now with the Amica it's the other side I'm loving the more space on (left side when it's open) There is a lot of room there where I can tuck a lot of items, and I really like that. It almost seemed too wide at first lol.
Thank you for taking the time to reply! I am a die hard sjsharks fan and completely drawn to anything sharks related so I will definitely be checking out that ig!
Yes I know a few do, I wish I had mentioned you could for the compagna too. It was my one slip in the video. Hopefully people making the decision on which to get read this comment!!!
I know this video is old but this is a great comparison.
I like the big back pocket of compagna, which is the essential reason I prefer gillio to other planners~~
There are now knockoff versions of the Compagna by other companies, that have the same layout - such as Moterm.
I 100% agree on every single point you made! I am in absolute LOVE with my Amica.
Woohoo I wouldn't give mine up for anything!
Your video helps sort a complex process SO much!! Thank you for your time and opinions❣️!
This is exactly what I needed to make a decision :) Thank you.

I think the orange black is the best Amica combo ❤️ It's worth the wait. I'm waiting for pockets to restock, so we are both on line haha!

Great video! I've been wondering about the differences. Thanks!
Thanks!!!

Great video and exactly what I was looking for
Did your teachers use incorrect grammar? Did they make a tongue smacking sound when forming certain consonant combinations?
Great video. They are both beautiful but your video is so informative.
Thanks for this video. Having watched this, I’m now considering the Amica over the Compagna. But my dream planner would be a Mia Cara!

You can make tabs at the top of the dividers

I know this is the weirdest compliment ever.... But you have such a soothing voice!!!!
It's so fun, I lost track of people that have said this to me. I would never have guessed people would think this lol. Thank you 😊

Thank you! It helped
I’m glad! It’s an older video but it still applies. 😊
Awesome comparison for the two. I think either way you can't go wrong with gillio. Where did you get your dividers from?
The dividers in the rust are from SaraMplans and in the Black are from CardboardCoture
Thank you for the great comparison video! Your video is so thorough and I enjoyed it! Did you decide to sell it? Or did your husband get good use of it?!
Amica fo' life! :)
#teamamica 😂❤️
Awesome video!! Thank you so much! It is very helpful!!! 🤗
Karla A. Mascari So glad it helped! Thank you for watching.
Excellent comparison. I wish I had this before purchasing because I would've gotten the Amica. It's perfection. Now what color?
That's the hard part lol, deciding on color!
Thank you so much for this video Diana, I had been waiting for this video to make a decision and of course I have it, I wonder, could you make a video of how you change the original rings to the gold ones?
I didn't film changing the rings but gillio has a great one I followed step by step!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Great and helpful review
You could make the tabs shorter for the Compagna.
I purchased these (and a few other sets) and the standard size they come is as is. If I shorten them the lamination will split.
+DoodleDeeDesigns to be honest though, the tabs on these dividers look particularly large - larger than usual. I have 2 Compagnas and the divider tabs don't stick out as much, and don't hit the pen loop. I've noticed that some Etsy sellers make their tabs bigger than others.

Where did you get the shark fin divider! ? I love it!!
I got it from a girl on Instagram, her name is paper.gypsy
Thank you for taking the time to reply! I am a die hard sjsharks fan and completely drawn to anything sharks related so I will definitely be checking out that ig!
Where can I find informaion on the Amica line, I wish you had listed it below also do they have wallets.
C Olson the Amica is from Gillio.com and I’m not familiar if they have wallets sorry :)
I have 30 mm rings in my compagna with no problem.
Yes I know a few do, I wish I had mentioned you could for the compagna too. It was my one slip in the video. Hopefully people making the decision on which to get read this comment!!!
where did you get the 30mm rings and how did you do it?
on the compagna I mean
Will the Amica lay flat when it is open?
Yes, more so than the Compagna because it doesn't have the larger back pocket.
Will franklin covey inserts fit in the Amica?
Karen Pierce I guess no
Karen Pierce I'm going to say they won't
