SimplyBook.me vs. vCita

I needed a solution that linked nursing, doctor, and other medical practitioners that are candidates or could be candidates for a new position, to get connected to a potential new position. The hard part was coordinating interviews and meetings between both parties for recruiters so this software enabled both parties to easily communicate times that work for them and schedule.

It makes client communication extremely easy - we can message and schedule online appointments. Clients really like those options. We also like the online payment portal. That way clients can pay at their convenience, and we don't end up with credit card information that requires PCI compliance. It also helps with payments. It would also help with invoicing, but unfortunately, there are only 3 linked payment options (Square, Stripe, and PayPal). If you don't use one of those payment processors, you cannot link to billing.

• Very easy implementation of a contact/scheduling widget.
• Allows for scheduling of appointments with clients. The setup is easy and the allotted times can be changed as needed. Easy for the client to use as well.
• Managing communication between individual clients is easy as well.

Incentivized

• Schedule delay for beyond a day because there are times when I want to book beyond 3 or 4 days but I have to instead remember to come back before 1 day to set the reminder.
• Confusing to pay for different features because many times I have found it unclear what features will be available to a paid user and what still will need to be paid for.
• The interface is not easy, it takes time to adjust to things and find the options you find, navigation becomes relatively easier once you get the hang of the app.

• Syncing with our google calendars has some flaws or is just not clear
• Messages show unread when they have been read

Overall - easy to use. There are some missing features (like fillable pdf forms), and it also requires using certain credit card processors to link billing (otherwise it doesn't work).

I do miss the days when I could easily call up a rep and talk to them about any issues I had with the service. But I still do hear back from the customer service rep during the week within 24 hours.

I've used pretty much all known tools but there's something or the other missing. Some are complex to use, some are not compatible through the api, some ask for access to our internal databases and some doesn't execute it well. The main reason behind choosing SimplyBook.me was that it is straight forward, it's UI is simple to use and it offers realtime connectivity with our product and services pages.

vCita has been very responsive to our needs and desires for improvement in certain areas. We have appreciated the level of support we receive when a problem arises. Our biggest gain when moving was the reliability of this product's teleconferencing integration with Zoom. With OnCall we had trouble onboarding people, difficulty with the app they used going down, etc. We also had expectations about progress with Forms that we unmet.

• In around an hour or so, I have been able to solve my worries about getting paid, organizing my time, leaving me the time and energy to teach and to concentrate on promoting my business.
• It's allowed me, in one stroke, to move forward my plans to add native-speaking language tutors to engage in follow-up courses.

• The initial cost was high compared to other options but the features in the base level allowed even the smallest of business to grow into the paid version of the service.
• The time saved with self service bookings and profile management for customers has been a big plus and made the purchase of the service worthwhile.
• The constant improvements to the platform have been enough to continue to use the service as it develops into a competent CRM.
