My Only Regret Is Not Starting Sooner
Reliable, professional, honest. Every question is answered. Every promise fulfilled. What more is there?
PROSThe Fareharbor software has freed me to get back to doing what makes my company great and puts the entire back office functions at my finger tips: booking, assigning roles, servicing my clients, and ensuring my reporting is clear and easy to follow has gone from consuming most of my time to becoming a second thought. I have an entire staff in my pocket and the support and training from FareHarbor are always there when I have a question.
CONSI would like to be able to send more automatic mails than currently possible. That's it.
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
You were the best.
Reasons for switching to FareHarbor
You are everything they fail to be. I have been beyond satisfied and would like to find a way to integrate FareHarbor into my other business.

Trolley Tour Review
We wouldn't be able to offer tours without FareHarbor. We simply don't have the resources to have a full time booking agent to book and manage our tours.
PROSIt functions very well for its intended purpose, selling and managing tour bookings. It eliminates the need for a reservationist via online self-serve bookings and customer payment.
CONSIt's a bit confusing to get started, but it is fairly simple once you get the hang of it.
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
Recommendation from other tour companies.

Clunkier than we'd like but it gets the job done
We've grown exponentially since we started using FareHarbor. It's a great benefit to having three different departments' events processed through one system. The biggest challenge we face with it now is wanting it to speak to other systems.
PROSIntegrating with our organization's website (wolfesneck.org) was easy enough, but the way it looks and operates within our site presents a lot of challenges. For example, a guest needs to click 3 times before they can access the specific event they want to attend, and then it takes the guest to a registration page for the event rather than an event description page, which would be our ideal. And the system seems to function differently depending on which page it links from, and we can't figure out why. (I've emailed to ask to talk to a rep for a tour or consultation two weeks ago and am awaiting a response.) Also, once an event has passed, it disappears from the calendar when it would help us to answer fewer questions if those events remained available for guests to see. What's more, our staff finds it, well, not difficult to use, but clunkier and more difficult than the other systems we use (e.g. CampLife, Asana, Square). For example, issuing refunds or moving a reservation to a different day or time is confusing--I feel like I have to click on several things and go back before I find where I'm trying to go. That said, our bookkeeper loves the report function. It's robust enough to account for our different needs but not so much that it's overwhelming.
CONSWe have a few concerns about how it works for us, which I went into detail about in the question above; but the biggest issue facing us now is integrating FareHarbor and Camplife--allowing them to share guest profiles and payment information. If Fareharbor integrated with Square POS, we could make that work too, but we least like the way FareHarbor doesn't interface with other CampLife systems or others more generally.
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
We went with FareHarbor because one person, the former campground manager, insisted it was the best option. It wasn't other people's first choice, but since she was going to be in charge of the system, folks essentially let her be the deciding voice. Specifically, she liked the way it was geared to water-focused events, which account for about 50% of our events.
Vendor Response
Hi Rebecca - We understand that certain aspects of FareHarbor's features and functionalities can be robust. We are happy to set up additional training if your staff is finding certain areas of the Dashboard difficult to use!

Outstanding Experience with FareHarbor
Working with FareHarbor was a great experience. The system was easy to use, the customer service was top-notch, and the fees were reasonable. I would definitely recommend FareHarbor to anyone looking for a reliable online booking platform.
PROSWorking with FareHarbor was a pleasure! The system was simple and user-friendly, and the customer service was excellent. All of my questions were answered promptly and I had no issues with the booking process. Overall, it was a great experience.
CONSThe only issue I had with FareHarbor was the cost. It was more expensive than some of the other companies I looked at, and I had to pay a fee for every booking.
Reasons for switching to FareHarbor
FareHarbor is superior to its alternatives in terms of customer service and reliability. Its user-friendly interface and comprehensive system make it the perfect choice for anyone who needs to book reservations quickly and easily. The cost may be slightly higher than some of the other options, but the quality of service more than makes up for it.
Vendor Response
Thanks for sharing your experience working with FareHarbor! It's important we hear feedback, positive and negative, so we know how to improve.

CONSNothing at the moment. When we are not able to solve something we ask Fareharbor for help
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
At the begining I didn´t trust in anyone and I didn´t want to pay any money. When I saw what Fareharbor was able to do, I decide to work with it.

Easy To Use Booking System With Great Customer Support
Because it costs the company nothing and their customer service is top-notch I have nothing but great experiences with FareHarbor and the customers do not seem to mind the added fee for online booking as the booking numbers have gone up since implementing FareHarbor!
PROSThe team at FareHarbor made the transition to their product super easy. They listened to our requirements and configured the product to accommodate everything required. Both the frontend and backend of the product is easy to navigate and use for both customers and administrators. It integrated with the website with no problems.
CONSTheir fee is pretty steep in my opinion. It's charged to the customer booking, but I don't like the amount of the fee no matter who it is passed on to!
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
No cost to the company since the fee is added to the customer booking total.

Terrible Support- Has cost my business money
The first year was great. The second season I only needed a copy of the calendar I previously had, but after working with support- for months, or trying to because you never get the same support person, they still have not fixed my availability and it’s costing my business money every day. We are a small seasonal operation and only have a few months of operations that are crucial for the entire year. The fact they cannot get my calendar off availability accurate is unacceptable for a booking platform of this magnitude. I foresee a dark future for this company, they have horrible customer service, confused support agents, even after they give you a dedicated agent, what’s the point if they don’t care to understand the problems or follow through with fixing them? I would never recommend Fareharbor to anyone if you care about your business- because Fareharbor doesn’t!! Highly disappointed in the lack of service.
PROSThe look of the interface. That’s the only good thing about the software, but if it’s not functional, it’s not worth it.
CONSsuper can’t seem to complete a request, even when it’s costing my business.
Reason for choosing FareHarbor
