One of the perfect booking tool

mohitsh November 22, 2024

I explored numerous booking tools and platforms for my productized business model, but none met my requirements. Thankfully, I came across this plugin—it’s exactly what I was looking for! The free version is truly impressive.

très bon plugin de prise de rendez-vous

orel80210 November 13, 2024

Très bon plugin pour la prise de rendez-vous et une assistance au top

Simple. Flexible. Easy.

chwmnej043 November 13, 2024

It’s been a very easy, go-to solution for one of my client’s car wash websites, providing a smooth booking experience for their customers. Support is just one click away and always there to help.

A feature rich plugin in its early stages

trexorr November 7, 2024

This is a plugin which has anything a business could ask for. They’ve gone above and beyond for the addons, including Google Calendar/Outlook integration which is highly sought after. It is a plugin in its early stages and has it’s minor quirks but the support team are quite active and ready to assist with any issues that may arise. With that in mind, the fact that this early stage plugin holds so many benefits, great prebuilt layouts and options to suite almost any business is impressive. Most plugins start too small for people to pay attention. I feel like they have a great beginning head start and can only go up from here! Worth the consideration. Worth being patient for. Worth it for small business’ who want to simplify their startups and not pay an arm and a leg for overly complicated software that present extra costs for other people to come in needlessly set it up for you. My business looks to help small business owners by giving them low cost easy to use solutions that perform to their needs. This has been worth while addition to our pool of solutions, hiccups and all.Keep up the good work team! We look forward to your progress with time!

Terrible Plugin, Speed and performance wise, terrible

asika November 3, 2024 1 reply

Extremely slow, takes up a ton of memory. I wonder if real developers worked on this. All they had to do was make this as lean as possible but it takes 3-4 seconds to even load a damn form, then another 5-10 seconds to load next step, it’s not even consistent, sometimes your users wont get stuck at a step with the loading logo forever. I would not recommend this for anyone serious about their business
