### "Easy Setup, Great Support, and Excellent Value"

November 10, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with SimplyBook.me has been very positive. I was able to set up most of the system on my own thanks to its clear and user-friendly interface. Whenever I wasn’t sure about something, I could either use the built-in AI search tool—which pulls information directly from their materials—or contact live support. Both options were extremely helpful, and everything was successfully configured in the end. Ironically, the most challenging part of the setup was connecting the payment gateway, since Stripe’s process is quite confusing. However, that’s more of a Stripe issue than SimplyBook.me’s. We actually use SimplyBook.me for organizing a two-day event, not for running a business, and it still provides everything we need. It’s flexible, intuitive, and works perfectly for our purposes. Overall, SimplyBook.me has fully met my expectations, and the price-to-performance ratio is excellent. I can definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and easy-to-use booking system.

Pros

Clear and intuitive interface Easy to set up without external help Helpful AI search tool and responsive live support Flexible enough even for one-time events Excellent value for money

Cons

No support or system interface in the Czech language Settings are divided into several interconnected tabs, so it’s sometimes necessary to double-check that one change hasn’t affected another area

### "Focused on the essentials and without unnecessary notifications!"

June 18, 2025

5.0

The biggest advantage is the cloud based nature. This means I always have all my data with me, whether in the office, onsite with a client or on vacation. This has become indispensable for me.

Pros

The best features is definitely the documentation function, which allows you to save emails, photos and documents related to individuals and institutions in the history and link these to others . This way, all employees can see what has happened and what still needs to be done.

Cons

Connections like those to Office 365 are not possible. This is urgently needed to reach more applications and usage in our company.

### "Honest Review of Simplybook"

March 13, 2025

1.0

Terrible - This product while good intentioned, simply cannot handle execution at scale. This product should be limited to small vendors who only have a small number of people booking. For context, we were part of an event with 1600 participants all trying to book at the same time, and quite frankly the tool was ineffective, frustrating, and a terrible user experience. Many users can’t log in at all. When they do get in, events either don’t display or aren’t clickable. There were a number of glitches/freezes throughout the process, and if you refreshed, you lost any progress you made, preventing teams from securing a time. For a process that already comes with high demand and pressure, these technical issues make it unnecessarily frustrating. I personally experienced the system freezing on the confirmation screen multiple times, which meant I lost the time I was trying to book and had to start over, and did not end up with my first option. Others have had similar issues.

Pros

I did not see any pros with SimplyBook.me

Cons

The system could not handle volume at scale. It was not easy to use, and froze/glitched regularly.

Hello Eku SimplyBook.me is well capable of handling such big load but then you have to contact our account managers and make sure that you are getting the high load product. The common version is done for beauty salons, yoga studios, consultants etc. which normally do not have anything near this load on a daily basis. We have a special queue manager to deal with this kind of load, so feel free to contact us if you want to take a look at that feature. All the best The SimplyBook.me team.

### "Simply breaking the mold in a world of cookie-cutter booking software"

March 28, 2025

5.0

Overall it was a fantastic experience. I had tried several different booking softwares before coming across SimplyBook.me, and it was a breath of fresh air.

Pros

The exceptionally high level of features and customization options, especially when compared to other booking options / software.

Cons

Customization is something of a double-edged sword - the more you have, the more complicated things become. This felt compounded by the way things were organized, like having to go to multiple different sites depending on what you need to do.

Reason for choosing SimplyBook.me

The price for SimplyBook.me ended up being much cheaper - by far. And while all the other options I tried were decent, in the end they would be missing some key features that I didn't want to go without.

### "Happy to find a booking service with so many extra features!"

February 21, 2025

5.0

I'm still a new user and overall I am very happy.

Pros

Feature rich to expand use as my needs grow. New to system but does everything I need as a single provider with one to one services and classes. Support so far has been excellent. Combines a lot of services into one that a basic booking service doesn't provide.

Cons

The only reason I would take off a star or move on down the road is that it isn't a complete white label solution. You still have to use their favicon, but it should be an easy feature for them to add in future. There is a learning curve to use site with all of its features.

### "Amazing platform and customer service! (One good idea in here too)"

November 13, 2024

5.0

Our experience with this company has been outstanding. They provide a top-tier service, and the product has delivered consistent value, aligning perfectly with our needs and enhancing our operations. Their platform is intuitive, efficient, and has allowed us to streamline processes effectively. \[sensitive content hidden\] consistently provided insightful guidance and was instrumental in helping us navigate the initial setup. His in-depth knowledge and willingness to walk us through each step made a significant difference in our onboarding experience. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been a true asset, particularly with her quick response times and clear communication. She’s always accessible and ensures we feel supported, no matter how complex the inquiry. \[sensitive content hidden\] has a knack for understanding our needs even before we fully articulate them, often offering solutions that anticipate potential issues. Her proactive support and thoughtful insights have greatly contributed to our satisfaction.

Pros

The customer service team deserves special recognition for their dedication and responsiveness. They have gone above and beyond to ensure our questions are answered and that any challenges are resolved swiftly. \[sensitive content hidden\] have been exceptional throughout our engagement. Each of them has demonstrated professionalism, patience, and a deep understanding of our unique requirements, making our interactions smooth and productive. Their proactive approach and attention to detail set a high standard for customer support.

Cons

One area for improvement would be to offer customizable revenue-sharing options. I'd love to see a way to implement revenue splits between each service provider and my company, which would open even more opportunities for collaboration and growth.

### "It is okay for the money"

November 28, 2024

4.0

Not great but not horrible either. The CSR are very responsive and helpful, That is why this software scored higher for me.

Pros

All of the features and that the price was affordable.

Cons

The software is not user friendly enough. There is a bit of a learning curve compared to other systems on the market. The YouTube video's are not detailed enough to be helpful. Luckily, I had additional assistance from other's that helped me build the system out so that I could use it.

### "SimplyBook is Excellent"

January 16, 2025

5.0

My overall experience is excellent! The Team is really smart and they are patient too.

Pros

The Live Customer Support Chat. All the Live Agents are excellent. It is 24 hours a day. And even on the weekends when they need to close down for a day and a half, they still return your emails. They help you set it up. It's worth it.

Cons

There is nothing that I like least about SimplyBook.

### "Best booking site "

September 26, 2024

5.0

So far most things have been seamless and I can research using their AI search tool. Sometimes when I reach out through the live chat I quickly get my questions answered.

Pros

Extremely simple to use. This is perfect for someone with little knowledge of how to put together a scheduling site. I have had many compliments on my site and feel like I get more bookings because of it.

Cons

Sometimes I find it hard to navigate on the mobile app. Secondly, If I book a client for them on my booking page, not the admin side, if I go to book someone else the last person info is still there and I cant seem to get rid of it without shutting the app or desktop off and then rebooting..

Pros

Cons

That so many features require a higher priced plan. Would like to see more of the add-ons included in the beginning plans. Also would like to see form creation and ability to send. And a way to create more detailed notes and client management.

### "Remodeled my complete booking process"

June 30, 2025

5.0

Bookings are easily simplified with reliable reminders on the accredited note and the calendar, although some technicalities, such as intake forms and SMS gateway, might be user-friendlier.

Pros

SimplyBook.me automatically sends WhatsApp, SMS and email reminders This has greatly helped me to almost get rid of no-shows. The Google calendar integration controls everything, and I can take payments online or on the spot using POS.

Cons

The intake forms are not always available in the notification emails, and SMS gateway integration could be configured only manually.

Great! I just can’t afford it at the moment but hope to come back when the situation is a bit better — economically 🤗

Pros

I Loved how easy and Quick in general it was to actually build and go live with the Page, it’s super simple and the New Age look makes it very adaptable to use and fit into any other designed webpage

Cons

### "Adaptable for multiple uses"

July 18, 2024

4.0

I did a lot of research before choosing SimplyBook and I haven't found very many services that offer this much customization. Of course I'm greedy and want more through. I'm grateful this is available and would recommend it.

Pros

I like that I can use it as a reservation software for my unique business needs as a brewery. I like that you can build your own package with the features. I wish other companies did that more often.

Cons

I wish that there was more features tailored to reservations and private events. I also wish that the items we sell through the payment system could be labeled with categories that transfer to our POS system. There's a bit of a learning curve if you're using the software but it's worth the effort.

Reason for choosing SimplyBook.me

They are all super expensive and don't have enough flexibility for my business needs. I tried really hard to make them work and it was a waste of time. Simplybook could easily move in on this market and would do really well with brewery taprooms especially. We're stuck because we aren't a restaurant but people want to make reservations and book events. We also often need to schedule food trucks and there isn't a booking software for that available. Two markets in need of a software that suits them.

### "Easy and reliable auto detail scheduling"

July 16, 2024

5.0

Overall excellent experience, easy to set up and use, both for us and our customers.

Pros

It was very easy to set up an embed on our website to allow our customers to book auto detailing appointments with SimplyBook.me, and manage and cancel their appointments themselves. It's far better than customers having to call in and speak to our manager to manually find and schedule times and write down that information, then having to contact the manager again if they need to make changes, reschedule, etc.

Cons

It's not as easy as it should be to set up a customized schedule, such as only allowing a certain number of specific services during specific time periods each day (for example, 3 full details OR 2 full details and 2 express services OR 1 full detail and 5 express services).

July 16, 2024

5.0

SimplyBook was slightly difficult to get set up and I really struggled with their customer service, but it has worked really well for what we needed. Very user friendly for clients.

Pros

The customization aspect of everything. Although setup can be confusing, once you get past that, being able to customize it is very beneficial.

Cons

Customer Service. We were in need of specific help regarding the email platform before we switched to google and they were not very helpful. Plus, it's only through chat unless you pay for help which as a loyal client, I believe should be complimentary when needed. I still feel like there are even great opportunities for a better end-user experience and have made some suggestions without further movement.

### "The only option for overlapping bookings"

July 16, 2024

4.0

Overall I appreciate the customer support, and it's working for us, even if it's a bit clunky.

Pros

SimplyBook was the only system we could find that allowed us to overlap bookings by a specific time.

Cons

I don't like how complicated it is to make changes. This system was clearly designed for another industry, so we've had to make it work, and it isn't always intuitive as a user how to go about making specific changes.

Reason for choosing SimplyBook.me

As stated above, this was the only system that allowed us to have overlapping bookings.

We enjoyed the wide variety of options and configurations it allows. You can set different services and different employees for your clients with ease. For us, using it as a booking system is our top priority, and it does this well.

Cons

Limited features unless you unlock them. It would be nice if they allowed more features by default.

### "Simply Book Me Review "

July 16, 2024

2.0

I would give the service overall 3 stars just need to simplify things and make the booking site user friendly it can be intimidating which makes it not so helpful for my business.

Pros

The Booking site is very difficult to navigate. My clients shouldn’t have to pay for the add ons if they are paying for the deposit. I’ve had a very hard time with using all of the custom features to market my business. The text option doesn’t work to send out notifications to clients. I was told you had to have an android to create an app when most people have iPhones. Sending out notifications to my clients needs to fixed soon.

Cons

The extra amount my clients have to pay when they’re paying a deposit and selecting and add-on.

### "Good BUT no downgrading "

July 19, 2024

5.0

Overall I was happy with my experience, until I found I couldn't downgrade my account. That really felt underhanded, and colored my entire experience with SimplyBookMe. I've been using to for at least 5 years now.

Pros

I think the product is good and easy to navigate. It's flexible.

Cons

Two BIG issues. The first, if you start on the free plan and then upgrade to a paid plan, you CANNOT go back. You have to create an entirely new account from scratch with a different email address. You can pay to have your info ported over to the new account. This is in the fine print of the terms and conditions, no where else. Shady. The second thing, occasionally custom features move to be paid-only, forcing an upgrade.

### "Auth.net integration issues"

July 18, 2024

4.0

Pros

Ease of initial booking by clients & integration with Google calendar.

Cons

Authorize.net integration has glitches they're blaming on auth.net...but we have multiple online systems that use auth.net and none of the others have issues.

Reason for choosing SimplyBook.me

SB is supposed to have authorize.net integration, but we've had nothing but problems with it.
