Although waitwhile was more expensive I chose it because it was easier to understand and use for our clients

### An app with a lot of promise but not delivering on all its advertised features

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Sergio D.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: February 2018
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### Pros

The app is very easy for customers to use and integrates easily into websites. They have Friendly customer support.

#### Cons

There are a host of features in Waitwhile which do not belong in the production version that they are selling to their clients. The problems had a direct effect on my client as his customers opted to book somewhere else. Support was friendly but did not tackle the issues head-on. The services have its own times and were not as straightforward to set up. When we switched off the waitlist function customers could still go to the website where the waitlist form was embedded and waitlist themselves. Very little help or tutorials available. I know that they are working on updates the whole time to improve the reliability of the features. Bottom line is, Waitwhile has a lot of potential once all the bugs are ironed out. no option to sync calendar or export appointments.

### Good queue management software

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Publishing
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: November 2021
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The API is very useful, because we rely heavily on 3rd party integrations and our internal software.

#### Cons

It lacks the following: Calendar/Reminder System, Booking Notes and Appointment Management. And it's mainly web-based without native smartphone apps. That a Minus!

#### Vendor response

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so happy to hear you found our API useful. We're constantly working to improve our product and are always grateful for customer feedback. We've communicated your ideas on what we can work on in the nearest future to our engineering team. We're working on releasing our native app, which will hopefully make your product experience even better. Thanks again!

### I used Waitwhile to manage the waitlists for sold out shows at a medium sized venue.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Emilie G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: April 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

The UI of the software is clean and easy to understand. It was easy to quickly explain its usage to new team members. The software operates quickly and efficiently - I had no major troubles with it while using it. Within the context of a sold out concert, patrons will usually wait in line at the box office for more tickets to be released. Having a tool that texts them when spots open up allows them to leave the venue without losing their spot in line - this is very helpful in maintaining positive relationships with venue customers. Waitwhiles customer service team also has an amazing response time - I emailed with a question during a concert one night, and got a response in less than 5 minutes!

#### Cons

The only specific feature that I'm not a fan of is the check mark button that, when clicked, dismisses a patron from the wait list (ie: marks them as having gotten into the event). My team members intutiviely wanted to press this button to invite patrons back to the venue via text, and accidentally dismissed a couple that were on the waitlist.

### This has definitely changed how we handle our wait list on weekends for the better.

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Erin D.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: April 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I love that it is accessible anywhere and that the system is so automated. Having the system be able to text a guest instead of waiting for us to call has been really efficient.

#### Cons

I wish it were an application that didn't rely so heavily on websites. Sometimes, the wait time for a website to load can make it a little frustrating for the guest.
