### "It's a memorable experience. Very professional and easy to use"

March 1, 2018

5.0

I was able to schedule calls and appointment booking effortlessly. The personalized link made it easy to be shared on my social media platforms for easy visibility.

Pros

Acuity helped me capture my leads information and followed me up through email to ensure I attend to the booked calls. It was smooth to use and has helped me position my business professionally. I can book my calls and integrate them into my calendar. It also helped me stay organized in that I schedule to book calls at my own available time. I recommend Acuity to new business owners and existing business owners too. It's good value for your money.

### "Has some shortcomings"

November 1, 2016

3.0

We have just starting using this app for my business which books people in for private appointments, group classes and retreats and workshops. We have identified the following major shortcomings. 1. Does not have a waiting list function for courses and workshops which are fully booked 2. The most annoying glitch is that when people book up for say a 5 day workshop, it acts as if each day is a separate appointment. It sends out a separate reminder for each day, and in its interaction with Xero, our accounting software if generates a separate invoice for each day. This is REALLY ABSURD and REALLY ANNOYING. 3. In its interaction with our accounting software we are unable to specify a code for the different transactions. It means that we have to go to each invoice and put in our correct code before sending the invoice.

Pros

Fairly easy to set up Most of our clients don't have trouble booking Connects to our accounting software (but we then need to process the invoices manually before they are sent out.

Cons

1\. No waiting list function 2. Can't book multi-day events properly 3, Needs some more fine-tuning for interaction with accounting software

### "Makes my life so much easier"

June 5, 2018

4.0

Ease of dealing with clients in multiple time zones with multiple calendars

Pros

The ease of use when you work in multiple time zones - there's no more email chains of can 'can you meet at X my time, which is Y your time?' - I just send them the link and they can book in when it suits us both.

### "Acuity review"

September 27, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like the fact that this application will seamlessly sync with our family calendar, thus eliminating the likelihood of overlapping events. I also like the fact that this blocks off time frames in my schedule when other events are occurring, for the same reason.

Cons

I dislike the fact that, in order to keep some of the same functionality that I originally enjoyed, like the sinking of calendars , Etc oh, I must pay quite a price to continue. This is such an amazing app, that it would be great if these same executive level items were offered at a much cheaper cost, or even free.

### "Making my work easier (and more fun)"

February 22, 2019

5.0

I've checked out several different types of scheduling software and this has worked great for me. And a bonus is the way Acuity Scheduling humanizes the experience with subtle humor throughout the site—really appreciated!

Pros

Acuity Scheduling syncs with my work calendar (Google), I'm able to create multiple types of appointments AND customize/personalize the links to these appointments.So

Cons

My issues with Acuity Scheduling are on my end, not Acuity's. Still trying to figure out how to use autoresponder reminders.

### "Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"

March 17, 2015

5.0

Absolutely great software! I use this as a Consultant who travels to many different clients; in which my email is not linked to onsite Outlook. This software allows me to send an email with the link attached to the list of clients I want to meet with and they self schedule the meeting. No more back-and-forth if I am available at 11:00 or not... they just click the link and schedule away! I've been using for months and cannot be happier!

Pros

Ease of use by the end user. This software is very easy for the end user to schedule a meeting. Built-in functions also allow the user to easily adapt the scheduling to appear how they want, which aligns best with the type of meetings that will be requested. Ability to properly describe different meeting types and once it has been set-up all you need to do is send the link. Very easy.

Cons

Nothing at this time. Keep it up!

### "Awesome Booking System"

December 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

Lots of options. I love that I can ban clients that no-show or don't pay for an appointment. It's easy to use and works really well for me and my small beauty studio business. I like that I can customize reminders and follow up emails and clients can book themselves and I can keep their card on file.

Cons

I really wish that I could further customize the booking page. I wish I could change the font, template, move things around, etc to be ideal for my business.

### "Having a busy schedule"

November 11, 2019

5.0

I switched from a Wordpress plugin called Booked, which I enjoyed and have used for over a years, but it was missing a lot of useful features that I found in Acuity. I haven't been using Acuity for long, but it's easy to use, for both myself and my clients, and I enjoy that it gives my website so many options to customize my booking site to suit my Business requirements as been able to add payments, and that it allows me to customize the homepage and email confirmation. It's a great product for helping me improve my scheduling of therapy sessions.

Pros

Easy to use, and intergrate with my wordpress platform

Cons

I can't say that there is anything I don't like about Acuity scheduling

### "Great in theory, awful in reality"

September 22, 2019

1.0

I have spent 6+ months developing a fairly complicated scheduler for my practice. I have attended webinars. I have spent several hundred hours forming this. Then, on the day I was going to make the live, the only day in my awful schedule that I had to do this, my acuity account disappeared, and of course, NO SUPPORT. I have no way to back up my work using their system, something I have never liked, so for all I know I have just lost a huge investment of my time. The amount of stress this has caused me can never be reversed. I was offered 4 months of free service to do this review.

Pros

The system is POWERFUL. I thought that was enough, but Acuity was a longer explanation.

Cons

The lack of support when you need it is the worst I have seen yet

### "Just what I have been searchIng for..."

July 2, 2020

5.0

Overall my experience with Acuity Scheduling has been exactly in line with what I had hoped and it has met my immediate needs. There is the potential now to add some further features to my experience such as payments which I am keen to explore.

Pros

As a solo practitioner who can't quite justify a full time receptionist, I needed a means for allowing clients to book different types of appointments and have them sync with my primary online dairy. Acuity Scheduling allows me to define the times available to different types of clients and provide them with a link to my schedule which is relevant to them. This has worked brilliantly for me. Acuity emails me with a summary of appointments made and allows for information about the client and the appointment to be collected.

Cons

There were a couple of settings that I needed to carefully work out to get the functionality I needed. This took a little time however the help documentation is excellent and there are instructive videos available to new users.

### "Proficient"

April 9, 2023

5.0

My time using Acuity Scheduling has shown that it is capable and versatile.

Pros

The integration with Google calendar makes for an easier transition and better experience. Acuity Scheduling has a convenient contact list, access is one click away.Appointments can be scheduled by staff or the client, another convenience for everyone.

Cons

When we experience a surge in appointments it's a strain to keep up. I'm not completely sure that I would recommend it for high volume use.

Highly recommend it for everyone who's looking for user-friendly meeting scheduler.

### "An Excellent Scheduling Service"

August 31, 2019

5.0

My clients (coaches, lawyers, and instructors) have been using Acuity Scheduling for years with no issue. They (and I) find the platform easy to use and intuitive. It's my go-to option.

Pros

You can start using it for free. Easy to setup scheduling rules for different types of services, events, etc. Easy to block off calendars. Syncs with other online calendars like Google and Apple. Easy to embed on web pages. Integrates with the major mailing list service platforms. Can charge clients through the platform.

Cons

Compared to other scheduling service options out there, I really have no complaints other than their first price-point could be a bit lower.

### "Great time saver and more convenient for everyone!"

October 26, 2017

5.0

Pros

I appreciate the ability for appointments to sync to my calendar. Instead of spending minutes to days going 'back and forth' trying to find a time that "works best" -- a client can just schedule themselves. The appointments hold at nearly a 95% rate !

Cons

The system seems to reset it's settings every now and then... for example, I didn't receive confirmation emails for a few days when people were scheduling. My email was removed from the dashboard and I did not know... and I missed appointments ! Need to keep an eye on those settings that they stay current !

### "Great integration with Squarespace! "

December 1, 2020

5.0

I'm really looking forward to integrating acuity into my site, so I can easily schedule discovery calls with prospective clients, as well as standard calls with existing customers.

Pros

I used acuity for a while, was quite ready to make the jump to one of their paid plans. Now that they've been acquired by Squarespace though, the integration with my Squarespace site makes it a no brainer.

Cons

When I was just getting started, I wished they had a free plan, which is why I started with calendly. Calendly was super restrictive though on the free plan, so it wasn't long before I needed a better plan anyhow.

Switched from

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

Calendly pricing goes up fast with multiple users, and acuity now integrates natively with Squarespace!

### "Perfect for the tech-challenged"

February 28, 2020

5.0

Pros

If you're anything like me and the word tech drives you running for the hills then this review is for you. I cringe when I need to use yet another software, app, device etc. If it's not an Apple product made easily to use than I won't touch it with a 10-foot pole (sorry PC lovers). Acuity is like the Apple product of online scheduling. It is so easy to understand and use. You don't need to research a bunch of Youtube videos learning another new skill, when you're already overwhelmed learning all the other tech skills you undoubtedly don't know. Using this service has been a game changer. It has helped me to grow my business by taking me from amateur business owner with mediocre results to true entrepreneur with great results. If you want to up your game, be taken seriously by other businesses, streamline your tasks, AND not have to get study for hours before using it- this is for you!

Cons

The only con is that I didn't use this sooner!

### "Honest Review of Acuity Scheduling"

December 4, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love that this software is extremely easy to use. I've used Acuity as a client booking appointments and I love how straightforward it is. I've also used Acuity as an administrator and I really like all of the different functions and options to create different appointment types, customizable emails, etc. It's so great to have an automatic software that takes care of all the emails and reminders so that as an administrator I can focus on delivering to my clients instead of being stressed sending out emails. I've already recommended Acuity to multiple people.

Cons

Honestly, there isn't much I don't like about Acuity. It's easy to use, accessible and very straightforward. The only thing I would say is to make some more options accessible for the free plan for those that can't afford it but would still like to use the software. I would say the only extra feature that should be available on the free plan should be that clients can pay.

### "I switched to Acuity Scheduling about a year ago. It is easy to create Services and Links."

June 26, 2018

5.0

Organization, trust, and efficient.

Pros

I love it because I can send my clients a scheduling link with the exact service they are looking for. I can choose that individual service. My previous scheduler brought up an entire page of my services where people had to scroll around and choose. I am pretty sure I lost of few signups because of overwhelm.

Cons

What do I like least? I can't say there is anything at this moment. I love the way it works and serves me.

Pros

The use of the app is very convenient , I can pull up my schedule anywhere! I can also keep track of my weekly appointments. I can also just send someone my direct URL to schedule. It is VERY easy for beginners and even after that you can upgrade once your business growns!

Cons

I don't like that you can't see my logo on the mobile version, you can only see it on the desktop.
