I also like how it has integrated with some of the companies like Zoom. And I also really like how you can invite other people to your events/appointments right through your Google Calendar as well.
The two things that are of annoyance have to do with the colors. Tasks are ALWAYS the same color and cannot be changed which gets confusing when using a color legend.
The overall experience has been excellent. I love this product and appreciate the work and research that has been put into it.
Google makes it hard to say there is something bad about their apps.
Perfectly integrated with the manufacturer's other applications, the interface is good and easy to use and allows you to create tasks and meetings with great ease.
It is difficult to integrate different email addresses into on Google Calendar. I sometimes I have invites through different emails but it is really confusing to get them into one Calendar.
What I most like about Google Calendar is cell phone notifications when an event is approaching. I most enjoy the fact that it's free, ease of use, and functionality.
When creating an event on the web version, if you accidentally click elsewhere, the event creation pop-up disappears, along with the info you've already put in.
Payments and reviews are very nice to manage. My customers are happy, thats mean, i am happy.
I work in mental health and this can get weird. That’s the downside to providing an online scheduling system – no privacy.
I love that it will send out reminders before appointments. I love that I can have a button to direct people from my website and other sites to schedule.
Clients have problems knowing how to cancel their appointments. I am not sure how to cancel genbook from sending a review request.
I appreciated how user friendly Genbook is. I like that it capture client reviews and has a clean looking interface.
They often miss that last button to confirm their appointment. My old message about setting up their account seems to be defunct.
We have been with Genbook since the very beginning and have been so impressed with the growth and the customer service. I recommend Genbook to all my fellow Acupuncturists.
It's also very difficult to distinguish between days still available to book and those that are not.
Laura: Hi, I'm Laura, and I'm the owner. I'm giving Google Calendar a five out of five for my review. And if you'd like to see more reviews, click below. Before I was using Google Calendar, just because I'm ancient, I was using paper. I carried around a little notebook that had a planner days, weeks, months, and I had a huge calendar in my office and I had to match the planner with the calendar on the wall. And if I wanted to work with other people, I had to print a copy of the calendar and go to a physical meeting with them, with all of their planner books so that we could make our calendars the same. This was really not efficient. Moving away from paper into digital. And I picked Google Calendar first because I had Gmail account and it was attached to Gmail. So super easy. And then it's online. So wherever I was that I had my computer or my smartphone, I could access my calendar and I was able to stop double booking, provided I looked at my calendar first. Then it was easy to add people to the calendar. Whether they had Gmail or not, I could invite them, and so we could all have a shared calendar and that worked really well. It was kind of first come, first serve too. It was one of the first online calendars I saw, and it was so easy to use that I've just never changed. Bringing Google Calendar into your business and having it work successfully for your team. This depends on your team. If your team are kind of fun, geeky, love new things people, it's just easy because it's easy to put on appointments. It's easy to make a Zoom meeting in the Zoom calendar, I mean, in the Google calendar. It's super easy. It's easy to invite people to a meeting, easy to accept. All of that's cool. If you have apps. I have one client I work with, and they have Trello, and we are connecting Trello to Google Calendar so that for the people who need to see it printed on a calendar, we can do that. That interaction is super helpful. The documentation is good. You can find what you need, and if you follow the steps, it works perfectly. So the first thing I would say if you're thinking about getting Google Calendar is get it. And why? It's easy to use. It's accessible all over the place, on your phone, on your laptop, on your desktop. Even if you're with somebody else, and you're borrowing their internet, you can get to your calendar. It's easily shareable, and that's a wonderful function for families, for working teams. You can share a calendar so that you all have your deadlines and everything together in one place. And that connectivity is excellent. If you happen to use a different program for booking and receiving payments, then you can connect that to your Google Calendar with about two clicks. And anybody who purchases a slot on your calendar and pays for it, shows right up on your Google Calendar. And if you have something else booked on your Google Calendar, that spot's not available for them to book in your scheduling and payment place. For me, this just simplified everything I was doing in my business. So again, if you're thinking about getting Google Calendar, go ahead and do it.
David W.: My name is David, I'm the Executive Director, and my rating for Genbook is a five. For more ratings, click below. Our previous scheduling program was written on paper. It was inefficient. Genbook has replaced the efficiency. I have several reasons for choosing Genbook. Efficiency, cost-effective, the ability to reschedule patients without being in the office, and be able to recall them when necessary. The set-up protocol for Genbook was quite simple and the staff was very helpful in providing services. My recommendation and considerations for obtaining Genbook would be, if you have more than one employee, I highly recommend it to control your hours and your scheduling.
