### Most mentioned pros

- I think this software is super, as a freelancer who works with a few clients at a time, I can easily plan my schedule
- Automated timezone identification is a godsend when scheduling virtual counseling visits with missionaries or traveling members as we avoid the awkwardness.
- Syncing my calendar was seamless, allowing me to automatically reflect my availability and avoid double bookings without needing to update multiple places.

### Most mentioned cons

- However, its increasing costs and focus on advanced features can feel excessive for users seeking simple solutions.
- Just today our integration broke, it's a bug on their side due to a parameter they changed, and there is no urgent help line support, no way to get back to them and support via email is just too slow.
- The only reason we moved away from this service was it's ongoing pricing model.

It's super simple to use and has lots of great features that are relevant to situations (booking appointments, calendaar integration, etc)

The organizational permission/access settings, and control limitations are still my biggest concern, though not vital

Organization made the switch; wasn't my call

For out purposes, it is almost perfect.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

When we looked at scheduling software, it had to be fool proof for the user and easy to set up for me, the administrator. The other great feature is to use different forms for different schedule types on the same calendar. For scheduling resources that has different scheduling requirements, it makes it easier to manage with different rules.

#### Cons

There is no administrator role that can override defined restrictions. If I am on the phone with a client trying to reschedule a meeting, I should be able to override the rules and make the appointment. For example, one of our scheduling rules has a 4 hour minimum scheduling requirement. IF I want to allow someone to come in within two hours, I should be able to make that schedule without editing the scheduling rules, which is what I have to do now.

#### Reasons for choosing YouCanBookMe

The managing of a single resource with multiple booking types!

#### Reasons for switching to YouCanBookMe

One of the problems with what we were using is that their simple scheduling grid was not simple and could not manage one resource with multiple options.

Zoom Integration is easy. But if time zones change then it doesn't keep track with Zoom.

#### Cons

Support. I started working with a chat bot and received very basic answers. When I was turned over to a specialist it took two hours before a response. The response was not helpful. People need to help people.

#### Vendor response

Hey James, We really appreciate your feedback! We're actively working to improve our virtual support and chatbot, so I'm glad our priorities are totally aligned there! In terms of zoom - we can help you with that! Feel free to shoot me an email and we can share some resourses with you to help make travelling through time zones easier! :)

### very useful

- Overall rating: 5/5

- Reviewed: February 2021

I've been using it for almost a year now and I have no doubt that I will renew one more year. It has helped me a lot automating bookings and emails related to these bookings.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I like most that it was so easy and nice to work with it. It provides your own website for your customers to make their bookings with you. You can even customize it a little bit, just enough to fit your brand colours but still look clear and easy to use. You can customize the emails that are automatically sent to people who book appointments. A Zoom link is automatically created in case you are organizing a videocall and is also automatically sent to your clients. I love that this app automates so many tedious processes.

#### Cons

something I do not appreciate is that I cannot sell a number of appointments with a discount, for instance I would like to offer 1 class at X euros and 5 classes offering a discount in price. YouCanBookMe does not offer this option; instead, clients must book (and pay) 5 independent classes with me. That would be a lovely addition to its features.

#### Reasons for switching to YouCanBookMe

I changed because YouCanBookMe offered integration with Zoom and that was a much time saver for me.

### Booking Appointments the Easy Way

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Steven S.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Design
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used monthly for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: December 2021

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I really like how YouCanBook.me syncs with my calendar and automatically blocks times that I am not available to book a meeting with a new user. I also like the ease of use for myself and the person completing the booking on my website. The customization is also very nice, so I can have my booking page match my brand.

#### Cons

Since I pay for the service, I wish I could remove the YouCanBook.me watermark. I am also not a huge fan of how it only syncs with one calendar. I use this for work but I would also like to add my personal events so if I am at an appointment with my kids, my booking shows that time is not available. It is possible, but for $10, just to have the time slots blocked doesn't make sense to me. I have just started to put personal appointments on my work calendar. I would like to keep them separate though.

#### Reasons for choosing YouCanBookMe

Price, customization, and simplicity.

#### Reasons for switching to YouCanBookMe

I wanted a simpler schedule a call booking system versus picking the type of meeting and a bunch of additional info. Also, customizing the colors to match my brand costs more.

I am a Senior Pastor and my days are consumed with counselling and committee meetings. This is a simple tool to cut out the endless email tag of finding a time. It serves to make my calendar known and available to the congregation while maintaining a "private" prayer time with excellent benefit for peace of mind.

Styling options for booking page are very limited. It can have issues with accidental double booking if the calendar suddenly loads or syncs later than intended.

### Taming my daily booking and callback chaos.

Having the bookings drop straight into my calendar means fewer double-booked calls; I walk into each slot knowing who I'm talking to, what vehicle they have, and what they expect.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

What I enjoy with YouCanBook.me is letting carriers and customers grab open time slots themselves, so I cut down on phone tag and keep my small booking calendar under control.

#### Cons

I struggle a bit when payment links or calendar syncs misbehave; fixing those quirks mid-day takes focus away from watching loads and looking after nervous first-time shippers.

#### Vendor response

Thank you so very much for such a detailed and in-depth review John - it's truly so appreciated! We love learning about new industries and use-cases that are finding our tool impactful! In terms of your link glitches - we would love to hop on a call together to resolve that together, I've reached out to you personally and cannot wait to chat! Thank you again!

Very positive. I used this product nearly weekly when I was recruiting full-time. The only issues I had with it were candidates using outdated phones were being locked into odd time-zones and them showing up at varied times. Otherwise, this product is easy to use, well made, and made booking interviews very simple.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I liked that it was simple to use and to customize. I liked that it was integrated with my calendars and had a solid browser extension. I also really enjoyed the updates and industry education provided on interviewing and recruiting.

#### Cons

The price. The only reason we moved away from this service was it's ongoing pricing model. We had to downgrade to Microsoft Bookings.

#### Vendor response

Thanks so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear YouCanBookMe helped streamline your interview process and that you found value in the resources we shared along the way. We totally understand the need to be mindful of budgets—especially when tools stack up. That’s actually why we lowered our prices a few months ago and made our free plan even more robust. We’d love to welcome you back if you’re ever ready to give us another go! Wishing you all the best with your current setup, and we hope to see you again in the future! 💬

I have enjoyed using YouCanBook.me. I use this service on a daily business when emailing with potential clients; however, I am usually only booking 2-4 appointments per week. Most clients find the booking process to be easy. I hope to add integration to my CRM in the near future.

Easy to set up multiple calendars for your clients to easily book their appointments while also providing critical information during the booking process I need for the meeting. Integration with my calendar makes sure I do not miss a call.

#### Cons

It would be nice to have the option for an electronic signature during the booking process. You will be able to find other lower cost options. The cost for text messages is rather steep.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

Appointment scheduling has never been easier. I can sync multiple calendars (Outlook, Google, and Apple) at once, as well as have the flexibility to create multiple booking pages to fit my course and project scheduling needs. Having the flexibility to do so has been critical, especially when we went fully online last year. The other feature that I enjoy is the customization features. From sending email reminders and personalized follow up messages, scheduling has never been easier. This software adapts to your needs.

#### Cons

At the beginning I used a free version of the software. When I switched to the paid version, it was hard to sync my "free" scheduling page with the paid version because I couldn't locate my password or the email I used to create my original booking page. It took a little work to figure out how to receive support but I was able to get the help I needed through one of the forums. I posted my inquiry and someone from YouCanBook.me reached out to me within 24 hours to support me directly.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

There is an easy way for students to book on their own. It takes away the most time-consuming part of my job (going back and forth discussing availability) and increases the chances that I'll actually end up meeting with them.

#### Cons

I really hate that the calendar can't simply sync with my Google calendar. That I need to create blocks of time, name them, then mark myself as "free." I also don't like that folks can't choose between 30 minute meetings and 60 minute meetings. I have to make them all uniform and then I feel like there are snatches of time that could have been booked, but there's no mechanism for it. I also find it hard to go to my page and log in. If I click on my own link, why is there not a link on that page to log in? Why is it so difficult to find my dashboard and manage my account? I'd also love the ability to indicate my working location: remote or in the office.

Fantastic. It's a set it and forget it kind of program. I rarely need to adjust anything on the YCBM site - nearly everything has been manageable via my google calendar.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

This was easy to customize and extremely quick to implement and go live with. While it's not been used as heavily as we expected, having bookable appointments has been an extremely benecifical addition to our service offerings, particularly with all of the remote services we've added.

#### Cons

It took a bit of digging through the (expansive and well written) help documents for some of the customization we wanted (specifically booking to a single service account, but having multiple team members able to take the appointment without rescheduling/reassigning). I thought this would be simpler, but honestly it wasn't even that bad - just some trial and error between the Zoom integration and YCBM settings.

### YouCanBookMe is a great time saver!

We looked at several different online booking services and even changed to another one briefly when we were using Office365 (YCBM did not integrate with Office at the time, unsure if they do now or not) and came back to YCBM immediately after deciding to switch back to Google Suites. The online support is very responsive, despite being an ocean away, are friendly and very helpful.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Before YCBM we were booking appts manually over email of the phone. This software has freed up so much time and allowed clients to easily book appointments for the time that works best of them. I like being able to specify different notification recipients based on booking link, and the ability to have more than 1 booking link per calendar with different menu choices, delays, etc.

#### Cons

Most of the features work well and are useful. I would like the ability to add padding to only one end of a booking, not both sides, as when all meetings have it on both ends you end up with double padding for all meetings and too much free time that is not bookable. I would also like the ability to customize notifications based on the meeting topic.

#### Reasons for choosing YouCanBookMe

integration to Google Suites, administrating the account is much easier with YCBM. With Acuity, you cannot delete or change an appt on your calendar and then it syncs to Acuity, you have to log into the Acuity account and change it there. Very inconvenient.

This offers a LOT of very useful features to organize meetings.

I get much better utilization of my office hours and the student satisfaction has increased. I also use this for advising meetings and to sign up for shared equipment usage. In every case, the service performs flawlessly. I cannot recommend Youcanbook.me highly enough.

#### Cons

I would like to see a few more themes for the sign up pages and/or the ability to customize a theme. Otherwise, everything is fantastic.

This software saves time and allows for better accountability!

#### Cons

This software has no cons. I have hear people complain, but that has to do with the levels. The more calendars you need to link, the more you pay. In my case, with 1 calendar it is perfect!

Positive! ENHANCEMENT REQUEST: it would be great if settings on the YCBM Booking Page and/or 'appointment type' could determine the COLOR of the meeting booked Google Calendar.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Great tool that saves me tremendous time in scheduling, rescheduling and reminding clients of appointments and upcoming agendas

#### Cons

That when I'm booking an appointment on someone else's Calendly calendar, I cannot overlay my YCBM calendar on top of that to choose a mutually free time.

#### Reasons for choosing YouCanBookMe

YCBM was the franchisor standard implementation for franchisees

#### Vendor response

Thank you so incredibly much for your review John - your suggestion feels like an uber-organized-calendar dream come true and we've definitely noted it! Your review means the sun, moon and stars to us! Thank you so very much!

Very friendly interface, helpful to save time, my favorite feature - time zone converter. I'm happy that the cost is affordable. Thank you a lot!!!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Most of all I needed the system where my clients can see my availability and have it converted to their time zone. I use it as a calendar that I share. It allows me to save time on planning and communication.

#### Cons

Even though I put in my schedule exact work hours, at some point it would show that I'm available in the night, which was not right. Support team was unable to help me and identify the error. They were giving me the answers that I already tested myself. However,that glitch got fixed next day on it's own. I have to teach clients how to use the system and what it is for. I prefer to share my Youcanbookme calendar just to view my availability and then I book the clients myself in Google calendar, because it's quicker and I can view the whole week with the appointments right away. I wish it was integrated with Google calendar more.

### Best Scheduling Software

The best aspect is clients have direct access to the schedule, they can reschedule through a link. Your time is not taken up with scheduling, rescheduling. The clients can pay online, or not. That is up to how you set up the options. As the owner you can setup a lot of different options for clients schedules.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The flexibility of the software is great. As a business owner you can have different start times for each day, email or text reminders for patients. The software synchs with Stripe for online payment. Buffers can be created for scheduling. This all works with google calendar, so you create your calendar, and link it with youcanbookme.

#### Cons

The initial set-up can be a bit challenging, there are plenty of online tutorials and online support. Once it is up an running, you dont have to touch it! There have been a couple of occasions where it would be nice to block a client. This would be similar to blocking robocalls on your cell phone.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for your review, Michael! It's good to hear you've been able to set-and-forget your online scheduling setup.

I couldn't do without as it saves a huge amount of time in call scheduling. I have also had good buy-in from my clients. The reminder, reschedule and cancellation system has reduced the amount of time wasted on non-calls.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Very good at scheduling across time zones Integrates well with CRM and across devices diaries Nice clean interfaces Easily customizable If needed - responses to customer services

#### Cons

Working out how best to use it - like any software that can provide complex solutions, it takes time to set it up and work out how best to tailor your business.

It's been much more productive since I began paying for the basic service. I am a small business, and the minimal add-ons suit me well.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Easy use of a link to connect to my calendar. No phone tag or email threads to figure out a convenient time/date to meet. I can set up four different types of appointments for different durations to meet the needs of the various work I do.

#### Cons

Clients that don't use the same calendar that I do (google) often have difficulty finding the invitation.

#### Vendor response

Hey Janis, your review is LEGENDARY. EPIC. AWESOME. It genuinely means so much to us. Sending you the biggest of high fives!!!!
