Doodle vs. JRNI

Doodle is great when you need to coordinate dates among a group and don't want to send a bunch of group emails or texts. It allows a number of dates to be proposed and the group can easily see those dates that are most preferred. If you need to do something more complex than that it may not be your tool.

If at any time you have a problem, they will be there to help you, and because the software is simple to use and you can rapidly become accustomed to it, I would strongly recommend it. The software helps a great deal with your requirements, and it keeps getting better over time. They provide excellent enterprise support and are able to construct extremely customized systems in response to customer requirements.

• Doodle approaches this problem different than most other scheduling platforms I've looked at (and I've looked at most of them). Doodle allows the person who is making their calendar available for scheduling to make the final decision on the meeting in contrast to other platforms that typically do it the other way around. Both can be beneficial depending on preference
• I love that Doodle allows for proposing multiple times, which is a feature I've yet to find on other scheduling platforms (and I've looked at/tried a lot of them)
• Doodle makes the scheduling process very simple even for someone who's never used it before

• Very flexible.
• The different types of event and ticket options you can provide are far more advanced than some of the other booking systems available
• The technical support was second to none and very quick in responding.

• I would appreciate a more intuitive add-on within Google Calendar so we can schedule meetings directly in there.
• I think missing functionality might be adding sliders, photos, and colors to the polls to make it look really beautiful.
• I find the options on the poll settings are a bit confusing. It could be elaborated on more or have tooltips to explain the options better.

• Quite a few of our clients book several places per course date in one go. Their feedback is that they don't see anywhere where they can write the names of the course attendees. It's quite usual where the one who books the courses in Bookingbug is not the one attending the course. I would like to see this improved so that it's clear where the client can input the attendees' names.

Easy to use and basically free.

Booking Bug meets the requirements of our business, and allows us greater time to do what we do best - dealing with clients and providing phenomenal service. Why would we change, when Booking Bug adapts so well to our needs, and their support team assist us so efficiently?!

Very simple journey with the few important questions/fields

It would have been 10 were it not for some feedback from clients re multiple bookings.

Doodle has customer service support available as needed, but honestly, it is so easy to use that I have rarely had to seek support. They are always a click away and responsive to resolving any need or to clarify the next best step to using Doodle to meet my needs.

Doodle is more customizable and I love the animation aspect. It is missing the engagement piece, but again I am new to it so there may be features in Doodle that I haven't discovered yet.

I have used TidyApps. It's good, but Bookingbug has a lot more useful features. With other systems, I have no control on the setup or once courses are set up, to amend them is very cumbersome. Bookingbug provides easy and least time consuming ways to do the above. Support is reliable. I very rarely ask for assistance, but when I do the response is on time/quick and good. I feel confident that I'm talking to a person who has good attitude to customer support and who knows what they're talking about. I've always been happy with the response to my queries from the beginning. With other systems I've used in the past, support was not quite so easy to get.

It's the only system I've come across where courses can be added very easily. If I had 10 courses to begin with, and suddenly I needed to set up 100 or more, I can do this in a very short period of time. All redundant steps have been eliminated by the clever design.

• Doodle saves so much time. Time is valuable, and it cuts the time involved with scheduling in half.
• Doodle connects our team across campus. Even if we don't see each other, we can still check in and plan a meeting.
• Doodle doesn't always work well with our campus network, which can be annoying.

• The fact that clients can book themselves online has reduced pressure on our staff and allowed them to book out of office hours.
• Our clinic staff have more data for each client, and thus are better prepared for each appointment.
• Moving and amending appointments has significantly increased employee efficiency, allowing the team greater time to deal with other items.
• Customers are sent important information prior to their appointments, and customer satisfaction regarding the whole process is greatly improved.
