It was useful for setting up my clients' group classes and individual coaching sessions. The platform's simplicity and integration with Stripe made it ideal. In addition, it included a space for a pre-payment terms and conditions clause.
Pros
Making courses or hour-long coaching sessions to sell to clients was a breeze. The problem of missing appointments is addressed with Acuity. It's useful for projecting an image of competence and efficiency to clients. If I needed to set up another customer appointment, I would most certainly utilize it again.
Cons
Acuity is a premium product that comes at a hefty price. Only if it could help me make money would I consider paying the price. A business with long-term profit potential might also benefit from this investment.

Overall, I'm very happy with Acuity scheduling.
Pros
The software works consistently and reliably. It's reassuring to know that customers are receiving the correct information, and we are aware of any changes in real time. Being able to ban problem customers is essential for us. The forms allow us to create click-wrap agreements with our clients.
Cons
My only issue with acuity is the look of the booking form. There isn't a lot of scope to alter the appearance, and the standard format isn't the most visually appealing.

It has been super easy to use as it's integrated with my SquareSpace website.
Pros
The things I like most are the ability to set up multiple calendars to control when people are booking into my calendar and how many time slots for each different kind of meeting I can plan a day! My calendar manages itself!
Cons
I've had problems with people getting the confirmation emails and not adding the event to their calendar, as it doesn't automatically create an event for the meeting with the recipient.

I have had a fantastic experience with Acuity Scheduling where i have loved all it has had to offer. Acuity Scheduling has eased the pressure of scheduling for meetings by making the whole scheduling process very simple, quick and less attention demanding. With Acuity Scheduling, finding a suitable time for scheduling has become easier than before.
Pros
Beyond it all has been how easy and straightforward it was to learn how to use Acuity Scheduling to create meeting schedules. I have also had an amazing experience with the task automations that help automatically find the right date and time to schedule for a meeting. Acuity Scheduling also has excellent reminders that ensures that am always on the know about upcoming scheduled meetings. Its activity dashboard provides a clear picture of all my scheduling activities making ot easy to track them.
Cons
I have not had any unpleasing experiences with Acuity Scheduling and definitely have nothing bad to comment about.

Acuity Scheduling has transformed how we manage appointments at our university, giving us useful insights. Its strong reporting features help us spot peak times for student services, allowing better resource use and significantly cutting down wait times.
Pros
The platform's strong integration features have created a smooth data system, letting us link appointment data with student performance metrics and gain valuable insights into how support services affect academic results. Its customisable reports help us create detailed analytics on service use, find underused resources, and optimise staffing across departments.
Cons
We sometimes face API rate limits during busy times, which can delay real-time data updates and impact the accuracy of our instant reports.

Acuity is an awesome booking system. We use it to manage our business room meeting reservations and the whole system is very easy for our customers to use. The software has paid for itself over and over again!
Pros
We use Acuity Scheduling to reserve our meeting room space. Acuity has automated our booking and payment process so clients can book online without needing to work with a human. Payments are processed through Stripe and are deposited directly into our business bank account in a matter of days. Acuity has reminder email and SMS available to help eliminate no shows. Acuity also integrates with Google Calendar so you can quickly check for upcoming meetings on your phone.
Cons
I wish we didn't have to login to Stripe to issue refunds when meetings are cancelled. It would be nice if there were a front-end experience in Acuity.
There are some limitations with add-ons. We sell pots of coffee as an add on, and there's no way for a customer to select how many pots of coffee they would like to purchase. Add ons are limited to checkboxes, no quantities.

Acuity was work to figure out all the functions, and the handbook helped somewhat. However, I struggled with the follow up emails that would auto change sometimes. But scheduling was a breeze.
Pros
I liked the ability to set up appointments and send to clients with automatic follow ups that I was able to create
Cons
Not all of the functions worked properly all the time - follow ups would say a place different than what was set up in the program

I recently used Acuity Scheduling and I would give it 4 out of 5 stars and I would recommend it to others.
Pros
What I liked most about Acuity was its user-friendly interface and the ability to customize my scheduling page to match my brand. The integration with my calendar and the option for clients to reschedule or cancel appointments easily were also great features.
Cons
What I liked least was the limited options for customizing email notifications and reminders. Overall, Acuity Scheduling is a solid tool for managing appointments and I would recommend it to others.
Reasons for Choosing Acuity Scheduling
Cost and customization for sure. The custom options are not in vagaro unless you add $20 a month to your already expensive overheadSwitched From

It works for one prong of my business and is well priced! It’s a partner biz with Squarespace too so they’re very compatible on my website.
Pros
The pricing model is affordable and you can begin setting up your account as soon as you pay — there’s even a free version!
It’s super easy to let customers book and purchase online and the email setup (confirmation, reminders, etc) and they can modify and change on their own too!
Cons
The booking widget and checkout aren’t as visually customizable as I’d like. It also doesn’t customers book recurring lessons and choose the dates, so it’s not good for weekly music lessons/tutoring, etc.

Overall, the Squarespace Acuity Scheduling system has been a great solution for my team and offers great easy service for our clients.
Pros
Acuity Scheduling is a great online scheduling system for many industries and verticals. It enables a robust platform that integrates directly with the Squarespace website to make online scheduling, payments, automation, and more possible.
Cons
Acuity Scheduling is on time-based events, so it's not a solution for multi-day events, industries like hotels, and bed and breakfasts. Acuity data does not transfer into the Squarespace Contacts system either - or sync with the email marketing platform from Squarespace.

Acuity gives me the flexibility to book an appointment or meeting so I can accept or postpone without much searching. I no longer miss an appointment, as the reminders keep me ready to take action early.
Pros
Acuity does the scheduling I need to ensure no conflicts. I love the way it schedules meetings, where invitations are sent via links that easily document acceptance from other parties. Reminders pop up constantly to alert me when the appointment is approaching, keeping me on track. I love the efficiency of its integration with my team calendar, which helps in scheduling joint meetings as required.
Cons
I have never made any scheduling mistakes with Acuity, it is easy to use and provides real-time syncing across all my devices.

I was very pleased with Acuity Scheduling overall. Its integration with my Square Space website was seamless and efficient, making it a convenient tool for managing appointments.There is also the possibility to integrate with many apps for branding and marketing like Mailchimp.
Positive Aspects:
Easy Integration: The integration with Square Space was a major plus. It simplified the appointment booking process for both me and my clients.
User-Friendly Interface: The platform was intuitive and easy to navigate, making it a pleasure to use.
Negative Aspect:
Limited Payment Options: I was disappointed that I couldn't charge patients the full price upfront when booking an appointment. The deposit-only option was restrictive for my business needs.
Suggestion:
To enhance the platform, I would recommend adding the option to charge patients the full amount at the time of booking. This would provide more flexibility for businesses and potentially increase revenue.
Overall, I found Acuity Scheduling to be a valuable tool for managing appointments. However, the limitation regarding full price payments is a significant drawback that should be addressed.
Pros
Easy to set up and integrated with my website- through Squarespace
Cons
Was not able to charge patients upfront. I started cash based practice and in order for patients to book, they were required to pay upfront

Acuity Scheduling is an all-around and complete suite for online scheduling. It is cross-platform and allows multiple device access which allows users to easily access and utilise it even when on the go.
Pros
The freedom, flexibility and convince that Acuity gives me by allowing a two-way synchronization with my Google Calendar. Whenever a client books an appointment on my Acuity booking page, it's automatically added to my Google Calendar. Conveniently enough, if I happen to add a date to my main calendar, that particular time is automatically marked as "unavailable" on my Schedule so if a client wants to book an appointment at that particular time they will know I'm unavailable and choose a different time.
Cons
The landing page could be made more user-friendly and intuitive. On the booking page, I would appreciate if a client is allowed to add more than one email address.

Worst experience we could have possibly had. We use acuity for our photography studio and had been running smoothly for 12 months. Then out of the blue we noticed we had been logged out of the platform and we couldn’t log back in. Lo and behold our account had been completely wiped. We had no access to bookings, client details nor could we receive new bookings. Support were woeful and we have been going round in circles trying to regain access. This was no fault of our own, a complete mystery yet they don’t seem to understand that we are quite literally losing thousands of dollars in business from this!!! It’s infuriating- oh and every support message is from a different person and they are so slow to respond even though they state they have support 24hrs! There’s no end in sight to this. An awful experience
Pros
Nothing. We’ve had the most stressful, upsetting experience.
Cons
How after 12 months our account just randomly, with no explanation or reason was wiped. We lost everything. All of our bookings, client data, ability to make new bookings. Thousands of dollars was lost and it was a truly infuriating experience. Support is advertised as 24 hours but I can tell you it’s not!! Takes around 12 hours to get an email reply and this is the only way to contact them. Awful awful awful

Pros

I was thrilled with how simple it was to set up and incorporate into my website, as well as how easy it was to use this tool for my business. Without a doubt, I would suggest this tool to my business associates.
Since I'm new to the beauty business, having a simple, approachable, and user-friendly system for my clients to schedule appointments through is essential.
The colorful and stylish team that created this program is what I adore most about it. I adore how realistic and imaginative they are.
It should be easy to use, offer excellent customer service and training, be aesthetically beautiful and easily customizable, and be reasonably priced.
Cons
Setting availability is subject to the same rules. When shutting off times by day, it can get a little complicated.
Needless to say, I lost a lot of business since I came across as quite unprofessional and inexperienced.

It's been an easy experience to get meetings scheduled and send out meeting links. I also love the hands-off approach I can take for adding meetings without manually doing so.
Pros
I enjoyed the simple UI of the application. For a user with little to no knowledge of a scheduling platform, it is extremely easy to navigate.
Cons
I do not like the fact that it stands out so much on the page. I feel the scheduler should feel cohesive with the website and not so much an external source. It would be nice to have the scheduler integrated in the site and not open up in a new window, which drives traffic away from the site.
