Book Like A Boss

Vorteile

Book Like A Boss ist hervorragend übersichtlich gestaltet und finde das Design, was dort vorgegeben ist, sehr durchdacht und ansprechend. Alle sehr übersichtlich und es macht direkt Spaß beim Einrichten. Was ich gerade täglich nutze, dass du den Termin für deinen zukünftigen Gesprächspartner selbst einbuchen kannst. Mit der Funktion wirkt das bei deinem Gegenüber noch mal professioneller. Auch die Verbindung mit Zoom ist super. So muss ich nicht jedes Mal meinem Gesprächspartner einen Link schicken, da dieser in der Kalendereinladung automatisch vorhanden ist.

Nachteile

Den einzigen Nachteil auf der Übersichtspage und der Terminpage, dass du da keine Bilder einfügen kannst für Testimonials. Du kannst dort nur Texttestimonials eingeben, was ich sehr schade finde.

Vorteile

Die Online-Terminplanung funktioniert gut, aber die Benutzerfreundlichkeit ist leider schlecht

Nachteile

Als ich die Software genutzt habe und wenn ich sie bei Kunden einsetzen muss, war/ ist die Einrichtung leider ein Graus. Auch die Integration in iCloud hatte bei meinem eigenen Setup vor ein paar Jahren nicht stabil funktioniert.

Vorteile

In the short time that Book like A Boss has been a part of my life, I've been able to divide up my time as I see fit, at my clients' whim. They decide the day of the meeting online via a booking page that I've personalized myself. I never forget an appointment. I'm reminded before the date by email notifications. I can also include payment details.

Nachteile

I have very little to complain about with this software, apart from the limited integration of page design.

Vorteile

I like that it is easy to use and implement. It is user friendly and we are able to implement quickly.

Nachteile

Configuring the booking pages are difficult. There are some functional issues that make it difficult to work with. You cannot change the layout of the pages and the reminders.

Vorteile

Clients can easily schedule. Clients get a confirmation email and reminders.

Nachteile

Not customizable, and the calendars do not automatically get connected with new package options.

Vorteile

The integration is so simple for a WordPress website. What I love the most is that it's in real time and customers can take the responsibility for cancelling or rescheduling.

Nachteile

The aesthetics can be improved a bit more and support at the time I needed it was a slow.

Vorteile

I like the look of Book Like a Boss, it has more of a website feel. I love being able to easily create products to sell and make it easy for them to buy with a click. I love all the choices of times available for each different type of product or session I am offering. I love the ease of using it for me and for my customer.

Nachteile

I would prefer the cost was less, but I could have switched to a cheaper booking site ages ago for less money and I havent. I think that is because even though I pay a bit more than I should for how small my business is, its so convenient and nice looking that I prefer to keep it.

I love the way BLAB takes care of all the administrative tasks behind the scenes so I can focus on providing my best for my clients. Boss takes my business to “a whole ‘notha level”.

Nachteile

I may need to dig deeper in the awesome tutorials or just reach out to my BLAB rep, but it’d be convenient for me and my clients if there was an option to book recurring 1:1 coaching sessions. I saw that there was a way to do that for events but haven’t yet found the tutorial for 1:1s?!

Vorteile

I've been using Book Like a Boss for 4 years now. I often recommend it to my clients for creating a first webpage with all the e-commerce functions and appointment scheduling they need to get up and running with an online business. It's easy to use and understand, it works great, and the team is always releasing great new additions in functionality.

Nachteile

It would be nice to have a few more options for sections for the home page.

Vorteile

The ability to set appointment scheduling rules so clients can book appointments or purchase coaching packages which fit your work week.

Plus you can create different booking pages for different packages or purposes.

Nachteile

The page designs are limited but you can always design a page in wordpress or other & then embed the booking function in the page.

Vorteile

I have been using Book Like A Boss for a few years now and I must say I really love it. Not only can I schedule my client calls, but I can also sell courses, services and physical products with it. It is a comprehensive tool for my coaching services and products. It also integrates with Zoom and other apps which is cool.

Nachteile

Trying to think of one but nothing comes to mind. It meets my needs.

Vorteile

BLAB is easy to set up and, even more importantly, easy for my students. It's flexible, comprehensive, and reliable.

Nachteile

Sometimes it takes a while to figure things out at the back end (but I must say, tech support is helpful).

Vorteile

It is easy to use and I can have multiple products for customers to consider purchasing.

Nachteile

Sometimes clients state they don’t receive a calendar invite. It would be helpful if a confirmation email was sent to me so I can confirm it was sent to the client.

Vorteile

I got in to BLAB during their launch, so I'm grandfathered in with a good rate. BLAB does everything the more well-known scheduling platforms do. I can tweak settings to exactly how I want them.

Nachteile

The interface is still so old looking. They just updated their booking interface for customers, and it is still uglier than calendly and the like. The one thing I wish BLAB would do is hire someone who knows how to design good looking interfaces. Also, after all these years, they still haven't created a mobile UI for my dashboard. Weird!

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Book Like A Boss

Vorteile

The customizability of the booking pages is where this software shines. It is beautiful, intuitive, and offers so many options that you really could use it as the homepage for your business. It allows booking free appointments, products (with credit card payments), and even subscriptions.

Having About Me, Testimonials, Videos, Photos, and a Google Map on the booking page - with all colors and fonts customizable - is a game changer. I really can't say enough good things about BLAB.

And the customer support is spectacular.[SENSITIVE CONTENT] and the rest of the team are INCREDIBLE. They are responsive, quick to implement changes, and are always improving the product. We came from Acuity to BLAB and will never go back. Never.

Nachteile

There's really nothing we don't like. In a market full of booking programs, BLAB stands head and shoulders above the rest.

Vorteile

My clients and I both REALLY appreciate that they can now self-schedule their payments as well as use the secure on-line payment processing. Faster and easier for me as well as for them!

Nachteile

Needed several rounds of tweaking to get it working correctly - had to work with my business coach as well as BLAB. I'm not especially tech savvy so this is to be expected - so worth the implementation effort! Biggest issue I've had is BLAB not recognizing blocked days on my calendar? Had 7-8 new clients book during 2 blocked travel days and it was not a great first impression to have to rebook them all.

Vorteile

I love the integration of different calendars with options to choose whether the info is read from or written to each one. The ease of creating Zoom links is super helpful & critical. I also love having a landing page with a video and basic info.

Nachteile

I would love to see more nuanced customization around confirmation & reminder emails.

Vorteile

It has all the features you'd need from an appointment booking tool, including taking payments, which is great for consultants and solo practitioners while syncing with your other calendars to prevent double bookings.The price is extremely competitive with the competition and the support is very responsive and helpful. I love the tool so much I can safely say I consider myself friends with the founding team!

Nachteile

It was a little difficult to figure out the right order to set up the various components, from syncing calendar, to creating booking types, and setting up customer link names.

Vorteile

Have been using this software for years - helps me manage my seminars and the booking and payment that goes with that.

Nachteile

Not very easy/functional in setting up new seminar offerings for my clients

Vorteile

A robust scheduling and booking tool with many advantages is Book Like A Boss. Customers can easily book appointments because to its user-friendly interface, which makes it easy for users to design and customize booking sites. For a seamless user experience, the platform provides numerous integrations, such as calendar syncing and payment gateways. Book Like A Boss helps decrease no-shows and improves client connection with tools like automated email notifications and reminders. Businesses are able to monitor their performance and make data-driven decisions thanks to the software's robust analytics and reporting features. Overall, Book Like A Boss simplifies the booking procedure and gives businesses the tools they need to effectively manage their appointments.

Nachteile

The comparatively high cost of Book Like A Boss in comparison to some other options for scheduling software is one of its drawbacks. Although it has excellent functionality, the price may be prohibitive for small organizations or people on tight budgets. Despite being numerous, the platform's customization options may take some technical expertise to fully utilize. Although customer service is offered, response times can vary, which may frustrate users who require assistance right away. Finally, firms needing sophisticated automation tools or complex booking workflows may find Book Like A Boss unsuitable.

Vorteile

BLAB is an easy to use and set up online booking tool that enables customers to pay at time of booking

Nachteile

No negatives noted, but I suppose the web interface for customers could be a bit sleeker

Vorteile

With Book Like A Boss, I don't have to worry about scheduling appointments, selling my services, or creating my booking page from scratch. This is an all-in-one solution for me to be able to land more clients and get more sales. I can create unlimited offerings and landing pages, and I can sell physical products, digital items, or even my skills. This is so much more than a booking platform!

Nachteile

The only thing I would like for them to add is the ability to create distinct terms and conditions for different types of offerings because although there are common themes all of my offerings are not universal.

Vorteile

I like the customization. There are so many ways to make this compatible with my branding.

I also like the scheduling options - being able to set up time cushions between sessions, sync with my Google calendar, etc.

I especially LOVE that bookings can be pending approval! And that I can override and schedule clients earlier if I need to.

And the best thing is about this service is that their team actually LISTENS to their customers. They are very communicative and responsive, which is a big deal these days. Great customer service!

Nachteile

It can be a bit challenging to set up the services. I wish there were categories for the services, and I wish we could set up events & class series (multiple events in one series) more easily. It takes a bit to set up, but it is worth it once it's done.

Split payment would also be a nice addition - to be able to have clients pay with deposits for large ticket services or to have installment payments.

It would also be good to have more customization of the reminder emails sent to clients. I'd love to be able to put additional information into those emails.

But again, what's great about this company is that they LISTEN to their customers, and they're making some of these requested changes (the ones in high demand, anyway). The team is very communicative and responsive.

Vorteile

There is so much I like about Book Like a Boss that is not easy to know where to start from :D

First of all, I like the fact that it gives users the ability to create a page that can include the different types of appointments or services you may be selling as well as customer testimonials and videos. It is an excellent way to briefly showcase what you do, what you are all about, and what you sell.

Then there is the customization power you get. You can create and customize most things: appointment types and duration, confirmation/thank you messages, the branding of your Book Like a Boss calendar, and even decide whether you want to display the calendars for all your events or even the one (or ones) of a specific one (or ones). Same if you would like to embed it to your website, you have the ability to decide what gets displayed and what doesn't get displayed to users.

You can even use SMS reminders, or sell memberships, group classes or recurring classes/events. Plus, Book Like a Boss has quite the array of integrations so you will be able to use it with many of the tools you may already be using in your business.

Nachteile

I think the one thing that is missing from Book Like a Boss compared to some of its competitors is a mobile app. It would be great to be able to manage things and even contact people (with the web version you can already do this) with my smartphone so that I wouldn't always be dependent on my computer.

Vorteile

There is so much to like about Book Like A Boss -- the ease of setting up new appointments and the multiple integrations supported -- calendar syncing, Stripe (for paid services), and probably my personal favorite >> Zoom. In today's world, every conversation I have is face-to-face via Zoom video conferencing. With Book Like A Boss, as soon as someone books an appointment, a Zoom call is booked and call credentials are included with the appointment.

Nachteile

It's really hard to think of what I like least -- the one thing I'd recommend is thinking about how YOU want to use the tool. The standard options may be nice for some, but I realized the need to simplify and delete many of the "standard options" -- when someone goes to my appointment page...keep it simple and do NOT distract them with other links and options. Just help them book an appointment.

Vorteile

I love that my booking are set pending my review & approval. That was a must-have feature for me, and BLAB has it.
I also love the simplicity of the interface for my clients. It's been great transitioning them from phone calls to the online system.
And the ability to customize so much of the front end appearance is wonderful!

Nachteile

The setup interface is a bit confusing at first, and it's frustrating that the services cannot be easily grouped or segmented into categories.
It's also frustrating that partial payments/deposits cannot be set up through the system.
Though it can be done with some convoluting, it would be lovely to have simple & direct ways for ongoing classes/multiple/consecutive dates and 1-time workshop events to be booked through the system.
And I'd love more customization/full customization of the confirmation & booking reminder emails.

Vorteile

This is one of, if not the, easiest software that I've come across for booking. Everything is pretty intuitive but when you don't know how to do something, it's easy to find the instructions or a video. And it does SO much. Products, classes, meetings, groups, it does it all. Fast and easy.

Nachteile

I would love if I could customize the bio for each product or service. Maybe the ability to add team schedules. I would also like if the coupon or discount amount didn't show up as revenue.

Vorteile

I just love Book Like a Boss. This has been my go-to scheduling and booking tool for years. I love the seamless integration with Stripe and Paypal, allowing my customers to see my availability (without asking me) and booking and paying for my services without me having to lift a finger!

Nachteile

I don't believe that they have a moblie app, but if they did, man that would awesome! And they are deploying new features so regularly, they actually might have an app and I totally missed it with all the new features that put out all the time!

Vorteile

I love the way I can easily present the information and details about my services & course offerings in a way that looks professional, clear & accessible for my clients both on computer & mobile.I also love how I can easily do what I need to do on my own without needing outside support. When I do need support, the online support is awesome!

Nachteile

At the moment, I am not thinking of any cons!

Vorteile

It removed many barriers for clients, made the user experience smooth and simple, enabling them to manage things from their side. Also, being able to create buffers between bookable sessions has been life changing for me, creates a discipline that I would struggle with if booking clients in manually. This means that I am properly ready for each session, instead of bouncing from back to back bookings. I also like how you can set global calendar settings so you don't have to repeat this part of the process.

Nachteile

I would like to charge in multiple currencies as my clients are based across many locations. I'd like to create some products in USD and others in different currencies. My business bank account works with multiple currencies, so I would like to charge in different currencies

Vorteile

It’s easy to use, even for someone like me (ahem, not too tech savvy). It’s organized well. and there are lots of fields to customize my appointments and services. I especially like the price range offer (to allow customers to flex pay what they can), as well as the integrations with my gmail and Zoom!

Nachteile

I wish there was the capability to add custom times for all the different services. I might want to offer one service on one day, and virtual services only at night. Yet, also need another two options! I am utilizing the global schedule as well as custom settings, but the custom settings are a bulk offering, and I wish it was an override for each service!

Vorteile

What I like most about Book Like A Boss is the flexibility. You can create as many booking links as you'd like and all under the same or different schedules. I love that my clients can book when needed, there is no back and forth. I set up when I want to have open time and the rest gets filled in without any extra effort or time spent by me. I like that Book can take payment for paid services, making that efficient and seamless.

Nachteile

I think sometimes where things are can be a mystery. Sometimes I need to poke around and take more time than I need to find what I want.

Vorteile

I love the amount of customization I can do, yet it's so simple to use. I find it extremely reliable and makes this one woman show run so smoothly. Seamlessly integrating with my calender and platforms. I love that I can have waivers and every single detail with BLAB come together.

Nachteile

I've been with the platform for awhile and everytime I ever even think of something that could get better they are already on-top of it, so no, there's nothing.

Vorteile

To be honest, if you are a startup with zero revenue, and no funding, or if you are a multi-million dollar company, just use Book like a boss. Honestly, every thing a software can do, this service does.

Nachteile

There are a few ideas I shared with this team, and they didn't do it yet, but I can understand its not easy for any company to do what every user suggests. But, my ideas were really able to help others too.

Vorteile

Love the responsiveness of customer service. I always get a fast response. All the features work and I can customize every page according to what I'm selling. Love how easy it is to OK a session with either myself or my client deciding when to reschedule. I can resend a confirmation email to the client who says they didn't get it (probably in spam). I love that I can set up a million reminders for myself and my clients. Love the coupon code section. A great asset in my business tool box.

Nachteile

I have had some issue of people not being able to see a free time slot when I personally opened up a big enough window for them to fit in within the constraints I personally set. The daily calendar is a slider, and that's a bit clunky. Other than that. I love everything.

Vorteile

It allows me to take payments and create group offerings. One of the things that is challenging when you have group offerings is to create easy follow-up reminders. Book like a Boss does it all!

Nachteile

I can't think of anything. I seriously looked for 2 years with intensive research to replace Calendly and then I found Book Like a Boss and it knocked it out of the park.

Vorteile

all in one platform feature- schedule and pay and remind my clients

Nachteile

Trying to get images that fit the correct size for the service page is a little daunting .

Vorteile

So I want to start out by saying that I am a coach and mentor and I also have digital products as well as the need for people to book time on my calendar with certain products and services. So my needs are not only specific, but varied. So now on to what I love-- I've been with BLAB since 2020 as a recommendation and I love it. My favorite thing is def the supporter support. You can tell that the team is dedicated to making this a fab product and helping support their clients, which is not always the case with these types of products.

Nachteile

As my business started to grow and scale and my needs changed, I have noticed some missing features IE not being able to set a max amount of calls/appointments on my calendar on a daily basis across all of my products and there's not option for clients to update their payment info for payment plans, which means I have to manually do it. For me, BLAB still works, but I would like to see more of these options so I'm not manually having to be in the scheduling or backend part of my biz as much.

Vorteile

My biggest need was to allow my clients to schedule different types of appointments with me. While there are multiple other booking tools that exist, this was the only that allows me to sync with all 6 of my email addresses for pulling my availability and to schedule to just the one that is relevant to this business. While that's why I had initially went with BLAB, their implementation of how good the booking pages look, embeds, reminders, custom fields, reschedule as top notch. And they keep coming up with new features that are actually useful. They have fantastic support, and a very active and helpful user community on Facebook. Great company and great product. I have also set up my wife when she started her Nutritionist business.

Nachteile

I'm still waiting for them to give us a proper CRM :)

Vorteile

As a service business I have services that cost different amounts and take different amounts of time to complete. Book Like A Boss has been the only software I've used so far that I was able to easily customize not only the prices but the length of times that each service took for my clients and space out the appointment booking accordingly and automatically.

Nachteile

I wish there was an app version of the booking page that your clients could download and book you right on their phone. Also, I wish it was easier to track transactions and able to export all the appointments for a client for each year.

Vorteile

I use Book Like A Boss primarily as a way to receive payments from clients. With their recent integration with the company, Clover, they really stand out. Super easy to setup different types of payments with differing subscriptions or times of payment.I haven't used them as a scheduler, but will definitely look into this. I see their platform as having many options and details that other simply don't.

Nachteile

There isn't much not to like with BLAB. They innovate regularly. I love them.

Vorteile

I love that Book Like a Boss supports me as a business owner. It takes care of all of my scheduling needs and send reminders to clients. It automatically books the appointments on my calendar and this is extremely valuable!

Nachteile

When I first started using Book Like A Boss, there was not a Mobile app. This May no longer be the case. I would love to use a mobile app!

Vorteile

Ease of use, integrations, and customer support. User interface.

Nachteile

I have had an ongoing issue with certain appointments not being scheduled in my clients calendars correctly with the time being off by an hour. I have tried to have this resolved but it seems to be an issue that no one can get to the bottom of. It has caused me issues with clients.

Vorteile

Book Like A Boss has truly transformed the way I manage appointments. Its intuitive interface and robust features make scheduling a breeze, eliminating the hassle of back-and-forth emails. I can confidently say it's one of the best online schedulers I've come across. A game-changer for businesses and individuals alike

Nachteile

Not really a criticism, but I've been using Book Like a Boss since it was first introduced and in the beginning it was not nearly as full featured as it is now. It was fun to see it develop into the incredible product it is today!

Vorteile

I can create quick landing pages for products and services and connect to scheduling and payment well before I need to put together the "long-form" stuff. I've been able to operate solely from Book Like A Boss at times.

Nachteile

I'd love to have a simple "front facing" web/landing page feature that doesn't dive into all the services and events immediately and allows clients to click through to those longer pages.

Vorteile

It's very easy to get started and to set up new options.

Nachteile

I have to use Calendly as a backup system because BLAB doesn't care about users with disabilities. I've brought it up numerous times over the years, but their staff does nothing about it. Their code actively makes forms LESS accessible to people with disabilities. People with disabilities can NOT use their forms, which makes us lose out on business. So I have to use Calendly as they are the only ones who have a usable system.

Vorteile

Overall so good. Clean, easy to work with, can customize to a larger degree than most I get compliments on it all the time. It looks high level.

Nachteile

I find the reminder emails are not as fully customizable as I would like. But still do a good job.

Vorteile

I like how robust it is and the capability to do many things.

Nachteile

It isn’t as reliable as other softwares we have used in the past. There have been a multitude of times when it breaks down with its sync and/or capabilities.

Vorteile

convenient and easy to use, what else to say...

Nachteile

maybe picking my url could be helpful for me

Vorteile

Ease of setup and ease of use for my contacts.

Nachteile

The client side needs an overhaul. It would be great to have clients remembered instead of them being listed 19 times (for example after 19 bookings) in the dashboard. I’m not asking for a full blown CRM but this is definitely what I like least.
