Considered Both Products
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.
OnceHub
Chose OnceHub
Calendly is definitely the bootstrapped option. ScheduleOnce is for serious businesses looking to automate & build a sales team.
Chose OnceHub
ScheduleOnce is the only platform that offered an easy way to send text messages to clients. I appreciated the ease of adding a few questions to qualify potential clients prior to getting onto a call with them. Easy to use and the customer service experience I have received has …
Chose OnceHub
Acuity is great. I really liked it but once I started using Zoom for sales consultations. I felt that ScheduleOnce did a much better job of sending a link, reminding them of their call, and following up with missed calls. Nothing against Acuity, I just felt that ScheduleOnce …
Chose OnceHub
Calendly is very simple, and fine for one person. Another option, Get Omnify, does very well for brick and mortar businesses and has some advanced features, but at the time there was nothing else that was as capable as ScheduleOnce, which is why we chose it, and why the …
Chose OnceHub
ScheduleOnce user interface and set up was easier than in Calendly. Also ScheduleOnce was able to connect to my iCloud calendar - most other similar applications could not do this (also better pricing for my needs).
Chose OnceHub
I thought Calendly looked solid as well. Both are easy to use and are attractive visually, I found ScheduleOnce to be a bit more robust and had more features. ScheduleOnce is better for a multi-person business in my view, but I can see why a solopreneur would go with …

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.

For all things bookings, including meetings, sales calls, events, and client onboarding, ScheduleOnce is the dominant software hands down. For shorter forms, such as quizzes and exercises on an online course, FormOnce is the far superior sibling as it's able to accommodate all needs, size, length, and customization.

Pros
  • Manufactured time for my more essential job duties as owner
  • It requires a credit card for all scheduling. Takes away the whole ask awkwardness.
  • Sifts out the not so serious purveyors of massage and keeps those that are.
  • Provides gift certificate purchase in increments or whole amounts. Saves me time.

Cons
  • Incorporating Square payment
  • Incorporating a one general automatic message to all your clients, with emails or text
  • Marketing backdrops for emails to clients, to encourage rebooking

  • I really wish I could put tracking pixels (i.e. AdWords conversion pixels) on the booking thank you pages. Having to direct to a thank you page on another platform is kind of a pain.
  • The Salesforce connector pricing is a bit steep.
  • Basic live chat capabilities would be awesome. Implementing a live chat widget alongside the ScheduleOnce widget can be a bit cluttered design wise.

They would not prorate a refund - I'm just out the money for services I have not used. To me, that is the WORST POSSIBLE customer service ever.

Return on Investment
  • Increased bookings: positive.
  • People like booking online without having to create a user name.
  • Would like to be able to take deposits using Square and not just Stripe.

  • Saved me time by letting clients book their own appointments (5 hours a week).
  • It's a professional way of doing business versus me playing phone tag to book an appointment, less work for my prospect ( at least 1-3 more sales).
  • It has rescheduled missed appointments (1-3 more sales).
