Considered Both Products
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.
Genbook
Chose Genbook
They were on point with everything, I didn't need to try others, Genbook was fast, simple to use, and set up. Clients love using it on any device and didn't have to download any app. I was a clean interface, easy to read and move appointments around, block out time if needed.
Chose Genbook
AcuBase Pro is my practice management software. The only overlap for me is that they both function as customer databases. I would love to see integration between the software in the calendars.

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.

Great for solo-preneurs! Genbook is like an automated admin assistant! Great for seeing my entire weekly schedule laid out. I use the back end calendar instead of Google Calendar.

Alternatives Considered
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.
