Square Appointments

One of the easiest to set up app for appointments

Pluspunten:

I loved how easy it was to set up. There were quite a few steps involved, but the app provided the steps needed and let me know if I was missing anything.

Minpunten:

I don't have many cons right now. So far it's met all of my needs.

Easy All-In-One System

Opmerkingen: I would highly recommend Square Appointments for a simple system that is elegant and user-friendly.

Pluspunten:

Square Appointments is great because it alleviates one less account you need. It handles merchant processing, product inventory, client records, appointment deposits and more.

Minpunten:

I don't like the look/functionality of the embedded scheduling widget. It doesn't blend well with most websites and is very noticeably a square application. (Which I suppose is great/strong branding on their part)

Good but with limitations

Opmerkingen: If had a local business I would not shift away from Square, but since my business serves customers globally I needed a better alternative.

Pluspunten:

The best thing about Square Appointments that the free feature gives you most of the options, most important being to collect payments and deposit them straight into your bank account. No fuss. Easy to use and integrate.

Minpunten:

However, Square Appointments is best for people who serve local clientele and do not serve clientele based in another time zone. In my case, I have a business where I meet up online with people located in different time zones and across the globe. The biggest disadvantage is that Square Appointments does not show booking times in their local time zone. It uses my time zone everywhere, it makes it super confusing for people who are booking. Another con, is that it will collect payments only in your currency, it won't convert or collect payments in another currency. I am based in Australia, but my customers in Canada would want to pay in Canadian Dollars and not Australian dollars, thus is a bit of hinderance for me. The last thing is that if you wish to go paid then it is pretty expensive starting at $35 per month, per location. All this when other competitors are giving the same features for much less.

Good for only one location

Opmerkingen: It was a good experience but I needed something more flexible and more robust to grow with my business in terms of record keeping of my clients.

Pluspunten:

Easy to use and set up. I liked that it integrated with Square Payments. Good for reminding clients of appointments by email and text.

Minpunten:

Increased fees for multiple locations. As a small business trying to work multiple locations to gain varied clientele it was counter productive for me to continue using it.

great

Pluspunten:

It's a great profram for a start up super cheap and easy to use

Minpunten:

you can't create pacages or a refer a freind program
