No matter if you’re just starting out, or you’ve managed a salon, spa or clinic for years, Timely’s easy to use and gives you all the tools you need to run your hair or beauty business like a pro.
Simplebook.me is so useful for client appointment bookings. Clients appreciate how simple it is to book sessions with our team, and we appreciate the simplicity of setting up the service.
It can be a little confusing as to how the extra features are charged for.
I looks great and I now have a website which can take bookings, payments online and gives me the opportunity to at the same time pull great marketing reports.
So far I haven't reenable to figure out how cancelled appointments get cancelled from my Google Calendar, that's a bit of a bother.
The software is reliable and in case u need some help, there is the live chat, that is very responsive and helpful. In general, it is very easy to work with.
I was having trouble finding the link to send to people I had to do a lot of copying and pasting.
It has been a wonderful experience and I get all my notifications as promise and all things they promise has been great customer service is also wonderful and very helpful.
Frustrating to not receive decent service when the app doesn't work properly.
Excellent system, easy to use and great for managing booking and invoices. Very good for marketing and useful for online bookings.
Terribly minor inconvenience but I can't use customer credit on invoices that have already been issued.
The support team are quick and efficient in their responses. We love timely and it's great to see a business constantly evolving and asking for feed back and ideas to improve.
Inability for clients to cancel appointments online which leads to them contacting me and creating more work for me. I'd lie them to be self sufficient to cut down my admin time.
Affordable, great integration with Google calendar and the widget option is very nice and easy to embed.
Some of my customers get frustrated that they get both an email and a text reminder and it's too much. I do this because some people put in their home phone and email but no cellphone number.
Quick and easy to setup, friendly staff online to help and my clients love the front end and its ease of use.
When we brought it to their attention, they informed us that the problem we have with their software is why a lot of salons choose to leave Timely or not subscribe to Timely.
Speaker 1: My name is Temiloluwa or Temi. I am from Music with Temikeys and we are a music services provider. My rating for SimplyBook.me is 3 stars. I tried out SimplyBook.me and I also tried out Wix, those are the only two I've tried out so far. I loved SimplyBook.me because it had certain features I needed, like being able to book services and automated mails. To help me stay organized basically in the way I scheduled my services. Those are the main reasons I loved SimplyBook.me. Using SimplyBook.me was quite straight forward actually. Everything was easy to navigate, all the features you needed, you can just use them. It was quite straight forward actually and then whenever you get confused there are guides and videos to help you. SO it is quite straight forward. Yeah, if you planning on using SimplyBook.me, I would say just go for it. I mean depending on the plan you're paying for their features are quite useful. They come in handy. Depending on the service you're offering anyway. For me it was quite handy.
Laurence: I am Laurence, a marriage and family therapist, and I give Timely a four. I have been using an EHR company and time management company called Simply Practice, but did not feel it was comprehensive enough or reliable. What I've heard from colleagues, other psychologists and psychiatrists and social workers, that Timely was a very reliable application to help them with managing their practices when it came to certainly appointments, and really defining out their calendars for the short term and the long term as well. I'm in the honeymoon stage right now with Timely, but so far I find the clinical support has been excellent, the ease of operation has been very successful, and I'm learning more applications week by week with my relationship with Timely. I think if a colleague or somebody I know is interested in acquiring Timely for the business, I would talk with other clients of Timely. At the same time, I would schedule meaningful demonstration sessions so you can see the application in its full scope.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
