The weekly schedule viewer simply cannot be compared to other platforms. It is also great to be able to have private notes that can be shared across the team on each booking. Cons It is pricey compared to other platforms, but dare I say it's worth it. Also, since Acuity was acquired recently, it makes you re-log into your account like every half hour and it is VERY annoying. This alone has decreased my satisfaction with Acuity significantly.

Most platforms don't even have a week view available, or if they do it cannot be custom colour coded. Switched from [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) Because Calendly has no weekly view, and Acuity's is top notch. Review Source Eric T. Director, Digital Transformation Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Robust Scheduling Platform with Great Built In Integrations" December 16, 2025 4.0 Acuity filled the scheduling gap where we needed it. As we grew the business, it provided us with quick wins in standing up a new business model that required dynamic scheduling across multiple platforms including M365, Postgresql and Retool. It provided a high level of visibility into daily schedules. Pros Acuity Scheduling integrated well into the process and tools we were using. Combined with low-code/no-code platforms, Acuity was flexible enough to support a multi-user environment, requiring minimal administrative functions. Cons Integration and Configuration did take longer than we had expected, but once the processes were fully mapped and we understood the interactions between Acuity, Retool, Outlook and our Postgresql backend, it became very easy to manage. The only real issue that we ran into is the inability for an Admin to manage the actual configurations for the end-users. Acuity requires that the end user participate in the connection between Outlook and Acuity. It's not a horribly difficult process, but would have been much more streamline had the Acuity Admin been able to execute the entire process on his own.

We needed to operational in a short period of time.

Confirmation emails, reminders, follow-ups — all handled without us lifting a finger. Clients book directly from our availability, payments can be collected upfront, and intake forms are built right into the booking flow. It replaced three separate tools for us. Cons The interface feels dated compared to newer competitors. Customizing the booking page beyond the basics requires more effort than it should. And if you have a more complex multi-staff setup, the logic around calendar management can get confusing quickly. Review Source JY Joanna Y. owner Alternative Medicine Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Don't recommend if you plan to grow. " March 14, 2025 2.0 I feel like its ok for a small 1-3 person company. It would be a waste of money for larger ones. Memberships were a headache. Learning it on your own is not fun. Pros Easy booking for clients, but the downside is that since clients don't have to create a log in, they will end up booking under multiple accounts using their different emails. Cons YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. NO PHONE SUPPORT. Not ideal for larger companies who want to do subscription memberships, it's very limiting and messy. They only do POS with Square or Stripe which have super high CC processing fees. Alternatives considered [Square Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/170278/Square-Payments-Processing/) Reason for choosing Acuity Scheduling I thought it was going to be the cheaper option Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder, Coach Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Acuity has helped me grow my coaching business." February 19, 2026 5.0 Overall, I have been very happy with Acuity, it has been a really helpful app in growing my coaching business. Pros I love that I can easily create and manage custom calendar booking links for my different offers - free and paid. I am able to include all my onboarding documentation when a client signs up. I can take payments on booking without having to raise a separate invoice. Cons For a solopreneur, its a relatively high monthly fee compared to some other offerings, but they don't have the same level of functionality, so it evens out. Also for some inexplicable reason, it keeps disconnecting from my zoom - which is frustrating. Switched from [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) I was using a free trial plan, when it came to sign up, another coach recommended Acuity as a better scheduler.

Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great value for the cost" September 2, 2025 5.0 Very satisfied with this software and since it easily combines with our scheduling and client list, it's wonderful. Pros Great scheduling software. Once you've learned the system it is quick and easy to view, make changes, or adjust schedules. Makes scheduling and booking a breeze along with there is great customer support in case there are questions. Has more features than most scheduling softwares. Cons Acuity makes scheduling my team so much easier. No more messy spreadsheets or texting everyone back and forth. I just set the times, and my employees can grab their shifts. It sends out reminders too, so nobody forgets. Super simple and saves me a ton of time. Switched from [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) Needed different features and wanted website integration to be better. Review Source CC Chermaine C. Business owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great scheduling platform" May 7, 2025 5.0 Pretty easy to use, stores client data and clients dont mind using it. I like that i have different payment processing set up. Pros The ability to easily set up different appointment times and that it saves client information. Also stores all group class info. Cons That it changed the email confirmation that goes to customers where you cant easily add it to your calendar. Now you have to download the appointment to add to your calender. Alternatives considered [Mindbody](https://www.capterra.com/p/40229/MINDBODY/) Reason for choosing Acuity Scheduling It was easy to set up, affordable, and a recognized brand. Review Source SK Susan K. Physician Alternative Medicine Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple and Sleek gets the job done!" March 10, 2025 5.0 Overall, I was very pleased with my experience. The simple and sleek design and interface (both provider- and patient-facing) made it easy for sessions to be booked, charted, and paid for. Pros The ease of use on the provider-facing platform. Our patients reported ease with the ability to see all services and to book through the Acuity Scheduling platform. Cons The SOAP note capabilities was the only con that I can think of; being able to take thorough notes is crucial for us and the way notes are setup for sessions was a bit time consuming. Switched from [Practice Fusion](https://www.capterra.com/p/266915/Practice-Fusion/) Practice fusion was too "clunky" and slow. The scheduling capabilities were very limited as well. Review Source SA Stephanie A. CEO Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to manage your calendar! " December 6, 2024 5.0 Awesome! My calendar gets managed booked without much effort on my part Pros Since I implemented Acuity, I no longer have to spend hours a day managing my calendar. Clients can book a call, without all the email back and forth to line up schedules! Ah,.. Acuity sends reminders... no more manual reminding. Saves my focus for more important work that actually serves the clients. Cons Managing multiple office locations. Maybe I am doing this correctly and there is an easier way. Alternatives considered [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) Reason for choosing Acuity Scheduling Choosing Acuity Scheduling over alternatives likely came down to its ease of use, especially if simplicity and user-friendly functionality are high priorities for your team or clients. Acuity is known for its intuitive interface, streamlined booking process, and customization options that cater well to small and medium-sized businesses. If there were specific features you found particularly valuable, like seamless calendar integrations or robust client management, those might have tipped the scale in its favor.

Founder, HR Consultant Human Resources Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great product for online scheduling" March 6, 2026 5.0 Overall my experience was good because it offered convenience and was a great solution for getting clients through my website. Pros I really valued the convenience of it being on my website and the integration with my calendar and squarespace. Cons I rarely had people use the scheduling tool unfortunately and the integration on my website didn't work perfectly all the time. Review Source IM Inga M. Sales Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Online Appointments Scheduler" September 17, 2025 5.0 Pros Acuity Scheduling makes it straightforward to book appointments online without involving manual processes. Automated reminders save time and reduce no shows turn-ups. Cons Ever since I implemented Acuity Scheduling, I have never experienced any drawback and I use it on a daily basis at workplace. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Tech Support Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Basic but gets the job done" January 29, 2026 4.0 Overall my experience with using Acuity Scheduling is positive, as it gets the job done for me, where I use it simply to book and manage appointments with clients. Pros What I like about Acuity Scheduling the most is that it integrates seemingly with other platforms that I use everyday, such as Google suite, and Outlook. it also allows me to create meeting links on Google Meets too which makes the integration so useful! I mainly use the tool to schedule calls and tech consultations with clients. Cons What I like least about Acuity Scheduling is that there is very little customization available. Customizations require CSS/HTML, which non-tech savy users may find inconvenient or difficult to implement changes with. I also find the mobile app isn't as fast as the desktop version too, at least on Android. Review Source PS Pereira S. Informatics Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Unlock the power of premium and scalable scheduling solution " March 25, 2025 5.0 Acuity Scheduling has been our reliable scheduling partner for five years now.

June 19, 2025 5.0 Acuity Scheduling has been great for me with straight forward scheduling and appointment management. Pros I love that services are displayed clearly with photos and service descriptions being easily shown for easy navigation.

Pros Ease of use! This has allowed our team to reduce communication about scheduling by a huge amount, freeing up their time to actually do their regular work! Cons Acuity scheduling has few cons for our organization. It’s an essential tool that we use daily for most staff. More direct integrations might be an improvement so that we don’t have to use add-ins to share scheduling info to other apps. Review Source JH Jessica H.

It is nice to have scheduling software out-of-the-box instead of having to code. Cons Acuity has some clunky UI/UX and lack of features occasionally, and I've had to contact customer support many times to figure out how to do certain things. For example, I can't seem to schedule a class on the mobile app, but only on the web browser. Review Source DK David K.

November 12, 2024 5.0 Overall, the Squarespace Acuity Scheduling system has been a great solution for my team and offers great easy service for our clients. Pros Acuity Scheduling is a great online scheduling system for many industries and verticals. It enables a robust platform that integrates directly with the Squarespace website to make online scheduling, payments, automation, and more possible. Cons Acuity Scheduling is on time-based events, so it's not a solution for multi-day events, industries like hotels, and bed and breakfasts. Acuity data does not transfer into the Squarespace Contacts system either - or sync with the email marketing platform from Squarespace. Review Source DO Deborah O.
