Acuity Scheduling 4+

I have just switched from timely to acuity it is a breeze for bookings it’s just hard to see a “weekly” view.. you have to turn your phone to landscape mode and sometimes that doesn’t show all the appointments would be much better if you can view weekly roster without turning your phone to landscape mode so you can see your appointments clearer if you are trying to liaise your availability with clients this is much more time effective.. I have to go turn the computer on or wait till I get home to be able to shuffle clients around or to be able to get back to clients.. it’s a small issue that would make all the difference in app efficiency

This platform was amazing for small business and I have truly loved it... however since it was taken over by squaredspace it has lost its own identity and looks just like squaredspace and unfortunately many of the changes are not enhancements, they are adding extra steps and removing the simple flow that was there. I am not aware of them seeking existing user experience (maybe they are so apologies if I’m wrong) I feel this app (both app and desktop version) is not delivering like it did. In just the last few days many glitches and issues arising and having to email the help desk. Makes me sad when something was working so well. And yeah I actually love change so this isn’t about change it’s about reduced user experience. When things get harder to use then the design is flawed and the people behind the change are going for a brand look not user experience. I’d start looking elsewhere . Ps... no they don’t offer special discounts for existing squaredspace website users as I am one and there was no benefit if you already had each platform. :-(

I have a career coaching business in Australia and I’ve tried a few schedulers now, including Microsoft Booking, but Acuity is the best for functionality and price. It integrates beautifully with my calendar in Office 365, my website and my Square payment system. Great product team!

If I was to make one small suggestion for improvement, it would be to include the option for clients to book and pay for programs. I have an online program that runs for 10 weeks where I would like to take bookings and payments for, but I can’t really do that now using the group booking system as a date and duration must be chosen.

Overall a great system though.
