Everything I need for my business in one software tool

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: My overall experience with BookingTimes has been incredible. I will continue to use them for any scheduling needs I have.

Pros:

I chose BookingTimes because they were able to create my website, help me understand how to use it and change it as I like, and the software provided a one-stop shop for my appointments, records, and product sales.

Cons:

I least liked the patient history taking. While I did have the ability to create a dot point for specific body regions I see on most patients, I was unable to include it in the same "notes" section as the SOAP.

Streamlining

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I started with booking times about 3 yrs ago and so grateful I did I'm now 3 yrs younger my grey hair is now blonde, It has Streamlined my business no end I could not go back to my old paper and pen system.

Pros:

Ease I used to have to do lessons and take calls for booking and I was mentally tired every day and the more business I got the worse it was getting I contemplated hiring a secretary but could not justify the salary as I was starting off in business. I received great advice and was able to make tweaks and adjustments the more I learned about my business and how the software had it covered Like using Xero and online payment gateways.

Cons:

I have no problem at all with the software, the only problem is me and computers lol I manage my way around the software fairly easily

Booking Times is fantastic!

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: Our experience has been fantastic. It has reduced time in our business and has made our payment collection processes so much easier. We have not had any no shows for lessons, as all students are confirmed prior to their lesson.

Pros:

The software is easy to use and has assisted in less hours returning calls etc at the end of the day. Our clients have found it very easy to use and payments processed online, means that we don't have to chase payments from our clients. Even after the site has been live for over a year, if I have any questions I know that [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is only an email away and always responds quickly and with a solution. I highly recommend Booking Times to anyone looking for an online booking system. Best thing we ever did!

Cons:

Cannot fault the program. We love everything about it.

BookingTimes Response

4 years ago

Thank you so much for your review of our business management software. At BookingTimes we are always improving our product to best suit our client's needs, and the needs of their clients. The recurring bookings feature presented a unique opportunity for improvement last week (some of which were on the recommendations of our clients), and will be completed on Monday of this week! No software system is above upgrades, we just take careful deliberation and thought when implementing changes to ensure seamless and bugless functionality for everyone on the platform. The app - you are very right! We do not have an app - but remember, the objective is to keep people on your domain (hint.......your SEO will thank you!). Based on the surveys we've conducted, no one wants another app on their phone! We have thoroughly enjoyed working with Tri-Covery Massage - especially during a strategy shift and the huge growth opportunities ahead. We are excited to help in any way we can.

Booking Times Review

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: We have had a fantastic experience with the team at booking times. From our Demo, to business start up/web design and ongoing management of our web site.

Pros:

The Software is very easy to use, The team who support the software are extremely helpful and always quick to respond and manage any concerns.

Cons:

It would be fantastic if there was an app to the phone to help when your not in the office and on the go. It would make it so much easier to view and update and manage the software.

Easy planning on the move

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: This software has made our daily working life easy rather jumping from site to site for communicating then another site for bookings then invoicing with another website.

Pros:

We can control everything like emails, text and advertising all from one place. Communicate with clients simple and easy.

Cons:

We would prefer to have online payments made to each instructor be made through our separate bank accounts for easier tracking of payments.

Hi Phil! I wanted to take a moment and say - first of all - Thank you so much for your review. It makes our hearts happy to hear that the system has simplified your business life and made things easier! We know you guys are out there doing a bang up job, and that makes us proud to be a part of it all. In regard to the independent payments to instructors with tracking - That's 100% possible! (and is enabled on your system now). But can we talk about how wonderful the new dashboard refunds are?! :) (Always evolving and improving!) Hope you are well! We sure appreciate you two.
