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

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

Support Rating
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.

  • Square Appointment is excellent at support! I have had several calls with them, and not one time have they dropped the ball, leaving me frustrated without a solution — not one time.
  • The community forum in Square Appointment can answer most of the questions, but if I have had real issues, I am always able to talk to a person. That is very valuable to me as a customer.

Alternatives Considered
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.

Square Appointments is easier to use that other solutions from my experience. I find the user interface to be cleaner and more intuitive. I like the reminder features as well as suggested calendar blocks. It is helpful to have the option to show my time as free or busy, include when I am on vacation, and sick time.
