10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
We can't schedule directly through MyCase, but we sync our 10to8 account with multiple calendars. Smith.ai schedules appointments for us by clicking on a link. We use Calendly for some appointments, but it's more expensive.
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
When I first evaluated 10to8, I looked at the three different tools that I identified above, as well as some others in terms of features, support, and cost. I tested some of these tools along with others and ultimately made a decision to utilize 10to8 mainly based on these …
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
Pricing for the options was not as affordable as 10 to 8. I could only use it for a short-term (days) for free, which wasn't appealing to me. I eventually upgraded on 10 to 8 after a few months of use because it gave me enough time to feel comfortable with it.
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
Honestly I didn't even try any others. I initially picked this software due its integration with Weebly - and even after I stopped using them I still was able to make the app work pretty well for me.
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
I don't use any other system. 10to8 is my go-to scheduling software.
Chose 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
I have used the WriteUpp service which has an online booking component but switched to 10to8. While WriteUpp provides an excellent service with a wide range of features, a lot of what it offers I don't need as a sole practitioner. It was effective though. I received bookings …
Bookafy
Chose Bookafy
Bookafy is more advanced and has more features that I need comparing to these other brands. Calendly is very basic while Bookfy offers more robust features.
Chose Bookafy
The main decision for Bookafy was influenced by the lifetime deal and Zoom integration. Bookafy doesn't embed as well as Calendly. It also doesn't have the ability to set up hidden meetings. Meetfox is all through a browser which is convenient for that not tech savvy but it …
Chose Bookafy
I have used both Bookafy and Calendly and they both honestly helped to streamline the booking process and save us a lot of time. That being said Bookafy is great because it automates scheduling, and reminders and integrates with other software. It also allows customers to …
Chose Bookafy
I used Calendly before and I like the Bookafy UI better... Also, we like the price structure more for what we get with Bookafy.

I think the competitive booking sites, to my understanding, offer more integrated full-office functions like client history, visit or product payments, etc.

Bookafy works great to send potential clients your available times for meetings. They can schedule the meetings in less than 1 minute. They get an email notification confirming the appointment and later on, a text message with reminders, just before the event.

Usability
The tool is the all singing and dancing ultimate appointment and scheduling tool suitable to almost any business that requires their customers/ clients to book in for a service. Has so many features and works really well with many third party tools that can save you a lot of time and hassle. It would of been a 10 if 10to8/had its own mobile app not web based app

I've only had to reach out to customer service twice, but both times the people that I spoke to were quick to respond, knew what they were talking about and were able to walk me through fixing the issues.

The main decision for Bookafy was influenced by the lifetime deal and Zoom integration. Bookafy doesn't embed as well as Calendly. It also doesn't have the ability to set up hidden meetings. MeetFox is all through a browser which is convenient for that not tech savvy but it lacked security features. Calendly feels more intuitive and easier to set up. I didn't want to keep paying monthly.

  • If insights and analytics is what you are after you can also run reports and download them to use for monthly or quarterly business reviewing.
  • The time saved using 10to8 is priceless. You can import or create intake forms for each service that you can make as a requirement for your clients to complete.
