We get a lot of questions about how Booksy’s appointment scheduling software is different from other beauty systems. Along with how easy it is to manage your appointments with Booksy and the features that make Booksy great, here is what sets Booksy apart:
Booksy is not the only appointment scheduling software. However, Booksy is the very first system to create a booking app specifically for clients- and remains the most developed client booking system on the market.
We noticed most people want to book from their smartphones (without having to make a call) and webpages on phones do not handle forms well. Sure, if clients PREFER to use the Booksy webpage on their phone/tablet/computer, they can. If you add a widget to your facebook business page or professional website, they can book through there. They can book through a text message, email, or social media profile that have your personal booking link. Now, potential clients can even book with you through Google Search and Google Map results- thanks to our partnership on the Reserve with Google.
I love the fact that you make everything so easy for the client. Also love the fact that my day is organized and I have control of may day. I walk into work already knowing the potential for the day. -Joanna Dineo
The reason behind all these options is simple: different clients have different booking needs… and we want to accommodate all of them. It’s no wonder that Booksy businesses see a 20% increase in bookings.
There is a good chance that for most companies, you’ve never interacted with a real person that works there (even if you contact them directly). With Booksy, we want to connect with you personally. If you contact us through the app, you can expect a response within minutes. Plus, you have your own personal representative that will welcome you to the app, let you know how to reach them for assistance, and offer materials and advice to help your business succeed with Booksy.
If you don’t want calls after that, no problem! We won’t bug you. But you always know how to reach us.
The demands of the beauty industry change rapidly- and we evolve with them. We work closely with beauty professionals to make sure our product will help you achieve your business goals. We also take into consideration ALL of your feedback- whether its from reviews, phone calls, facebook comments, messages. Even if the changes aren’t immediate, we ARE listening and we will make as many modifications as we can to establish the best appointment scheduling software for you.
I’m loving the new updates! Also, I just checked my feedback and reviews and I’m 5 stars across the board! Yay! Also monthly I have increased business so everything is great! - Richard, The MasterBarber Barbershop: Freeport
It can be difficult to make everyone happy, which is why we have so many customizable settings in the app. There are tons of booking settings for every type of business, along with financial settings, staff settings, notification settings… and so much more. Your personal rep can work with you to get the perfect setup for your business.
Staff time management in the shop is optimised as no one is running to the phone or returning emails at the end of the day. Cancellations have been reduced to a minimum thanks to automated reminders. On top of that, PHD’s client database has excelled as they have gone digital, making it easier to promote direct to customers through message blasts, texts and via Facebook and web site widgets. -David Thomas, PHD Barbers: Uckfield, Sussex
It’s true- we never had a free option of the app. In order to have a on-call support team and keep improving our product. Rather than lock you into our system and make price changes later, the price you subscribe with is the price you pay: we don’t force you into price hikes later. Plus, we currently don’t hold anything back, so you don’t have to buy a more expensive package for that ONE feature you want (it’s always one feature, isn’t it?).
Booksy has been fantastic for me. It has allowed me to focus more on actually running my business by reducing the booking time down I previously spent on clients. It's also gained me lots of new regular customers. Convenient, stress free, definitely worth its money! - Keelee Gee's Make Up & Beauty Lounge
Right now, every new feature and development is automatically included in your subscription. If we ever do change our policy on this, you can rest assured that you will be informed and you will always have a choice to keep using your system as is (for the same price) or upgrade. We take our business’s loyalty seriously and that is why existing members always get the best deals.
