Melanie E
Owner
4.0

Melanie E.: Hi, my name is Melanie. I am the owner. My business is small, and I give Mindbody a four out of five. Prior to Mindbody, the software that I was using took a lot more time. It was tedious, and, to be honest, it was quite manual. I chose Mindbody because I've heard a lot about it, and a lot of people told me it was a good software to use. So word-of-mouth is everything. Using Mindbody was a little difficult at first, but I was able to manage and power through by looking up different ways that I could find the information without being stuck and alone finding it myself. If you are considering getting Mindbody, just make sure you do your research, so that you know exactly what you're looking for, and you know exactly what you're going to get. If you do not know what features you want, then it's going to be really hard to narrow down the benefits of a new software.

Temiloluwa A
Tutor, Musician
3.0

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.
