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.
I love it , it is simple to use and does the big job in minutes. I love the the "automation" feature the most , it is a game changer.
There is nothing much to say bad about this software. Only this is most people are not aware of this platform.
I'd recommend, it is good for scheduling and pretty user friendly. The pricing is pretty reasonable for a smaller team to handle within their budget.
I don't like the ads and their placement. I dislike how difficult the interface can be if considering a very large number of possible dates or times, especially for first-time users.
It is a great tool to arrange appointments and gatherings, see who can come and when is the most useful time for such kind of events.
There could be a way to organize polls and mainly to dismiss unwanted or past polls that se no longer are attached to.
What I liked the most about this software is the variety of choices that I had to choose from in doodling. It was a great task to help pass the time.
I think it is a bummer that the connection with Google Calendar for instance is only in the premium version.
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.
Justin: Hi, my name is Justin. I'm an English language arts teacher and a technology coach. I'm at a middle school of about 150 students, and I give Doodle a four star rating. Before Doodle, if we needed to schedule anything, it was constant emails back and forth, and people not paying attention to dates and times, and it took forever. Doodle really gives us the ability to schedule easily without the hassle of lots of emails back and forth. Doodle is nice because it's pretty simple to use. I can teach other teachers how to use it. Setup is easy and it really just gives us the flexibility and features that we need for simple scheduling. Doodle's pretty easy. There are a lot of ads and distractions on the page at times, so it can be a little hard to find what you need. But for the most part, I'd say it's very user-friendly, easy to teach people how to use, easy to set up and easy to get the information back that you need. I would recommend trying Doodle if you're having trouble scheduling. If you're like me, where you had emails slinging back and forth about what times people are available, it just really streamlines that process in a way that's simple, fast, and efficient.
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.
