“I have used this for 8+ years and it is so easy to create a customer facing site for customers to book appointments, it syncs up with my calendar, and my rates have hardly gone up since I signed up as they are loyal to their customers and grandfather them in (my pricing was held at what I signed up for even though the price of my plan went up). “

### "The #1 Scheduling Platform For Small Businesses"

December 29, 2025

4.0

Pros

I've used so many different electronic calendars and Acuity is by far one of the best. 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.

Reason for choosing Acuity Scheduling

Again, Acuity weekly view is better than other platforms. 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.

### "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.

### "Good tool for scheduling "

January 10, 2026

3.0

Overall, my experience has been pretty good. I haven’t had any issues that have made me not want to use the system.

Pros

The ability to schedule appointments online and use the system and integrated with your appointments

Cons

I’m not sure that I have anything. I don’t like about it. I haven’t had any challenges too much with it.

### "Scheduling Made Ridiculously Easy"

February 12, 2026

4.0

My experience with Acuity Scheduling has been consistently positive. It’s reliable, professional, and saves me a ton of time every single week. Clients love how easy it is to book, and I love not chasing appointments anymore. If you value efficiency (and your sanity), this one’s a no-brainer.

Pros

Acuity Scheduling makes booking appointments feel effortless—for me and for my clients. The automated reminders alone are lifesavers. I love how customizable everything is—from intake forms to availability settings—so it actually fits my workflow instead of forcing me to adjust to it. Payment integrations are smooth, the calendar sync works like a charm, and the client experience looks polished and professional. It’s basically like having a virtual assistant who never sleeps.

Cons

There’s a small learning curve when you first dive into all the customization options.Once everything is set up, it runs beautifully. I wouldn’t mind even more built-in design templates, but that’s more of a wishlist item than a complaint.

### "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.

### "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.

### "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.

Practice fusion was too "clunky" and slow. The scheduling capabilities were very limited as well.

### "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.

### "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.

### "Acuity's an excellent scheduling tool "

December 28, 2024

4.0

I switched from Calendly in 2015 or so to Acuity because at that time they had the zoom integration. Calendly now has that integration of course now, too, but at the time, I was manually sending the zoom link to my contacts and so I searched for a better tool and Acuity was it.

Pros

That they offer the 'add to google calendar' feature as opposed to (or in addition to??) the inconvenient .ics file.

Cons

The cost. I switched to another tool because Acuity was double the price with almost the same features.

Switched from

[Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/)

At the time, about 8 years ago, Calendly did not offer the zoom integration, so I was manually sending my contacts this information, so after a few times of doing that, I found Acuity.

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

Very convenient to use for both myself and my mentees who are scheduling calls with me for the Modern Classrooms Project.

Cons

It took some time initially to sync calendars and change time zones, but the fact that it was possible to use different time zones was helpful.

Overall, my experience has been very positive. It streamlined my scheduling process and gave clients a smooth, self service booking experience.

Pros

You can set availability, buffers, intake forms, and automated reminders, which makes everything feel organized and professional. The automatic confirmations and reminder emails were especially helpful for reducing no shows.

Cons

The setup can feel a little confusing at first, especially when you’re configuring different appointment types or setting rules around availability. Some of the more advanced features are not immediately intuitive.

My experience with Acuity Scheduling has been a smooth and efficient one. It has given me everything i would ask for in a scheduling tool.

Overall, we had a positive experience with Acuity. The online scheduling platform and the business facing platform were very simple and intuitive to provide a streamlined and clean scheduling and payment solution to the needs of our clinic.

Pros

I really liked how easy the online scheduling was on the provider side and on the client side; it fulfilled all needs of an online scheduling platform. There were many ways for us to customize our session offerings with different durations, staff, and prices.

Cons

I wish there was a better option for HIPAA compliant intake forms and SOAP notetaking; what was available was not very simple to use and follow.

Pros

I like how very easy it is to use. You don’t have to pay somebody to make your website if you choose to add that to your subscription. Literally just follow the steps and it’s done.

Cons

Honestly nothing , it’s very management. The pricing now, for some of the subscriptions may be outrageous but overall you’re getting your money worth.
