Aaniie Kids vs. JRNI

Although the Aaniie Kids team customized some of the system for our use and continues to do so, the team is very hard to work with. In fact, in an early meeting, the CEO stated, "we listen to our users and innovate every day." My experience has been exactly the opposite. When we provide user feedback, we are told that it can't be accomplished.

If at any time you have a problem, they will be there to help you, and because the software is simple to use and you can rapidly become accustomed to it, I would strongly recommend it. The software helps a great deal with your requirements, and it keeps getting better over time. They provide excellent enterprise support and are able to construct extremely customized systems in response to customer requirements.

• Client prospect auto emails is nice
• Prospect and candidate stage screens are useful

• The service team at Booking Bug has always been swift and professional in dealing with our queries, and our configuration and use of Booking Bug has become more efficient as a result of the team's assistance.
• Booking Bug's system of notifications, by way of confirmation emails and booking reminders, are incredibly useful for both clients and staff. Clients arrive 'prepped' with everything that they need to know/bring, and are able to easily amend/cancel appointments where previously they might have failed to attend (without notifying our clinics).
• The configuration process is very simple, and allowed us to specify complicated requirements for individual clinics. We have a range of different services, and Booking Bug easily accommodated these.

• The scheduling dashboard is a cluttered mess and not efficient to match a family to a caregiver.
• What is called reports are actually data exports without the ability to filter
• Reports that pull the same data don't have the same numbers so nothing matches making it very challenging to run a business and hold employees accountable to KPI's.
• The user interface of the mobile app is hard to understand and often doesn't permit caregivers to punch in and out of a shift.
• The platform causes our email to be marked as spam.

• Quite a few of our clients book several places per course date in one go. Their feedback is that they don't see anywhere where they can write the names of the course attendees. It's quite usual where the one who books the courses in Bookingbug is not the one attending the course. I would like to see this improved so that it's clear where the client can input the attendees' names.

Booking Bug meets the requirements of our business, and allows us greater time to do what we do best - dealing with clients and providing phenomenal service. Why would we change, when Booking Bug adapts so well to our needs, and their support team assist us so efficiently?!

We are using the system, so I cannot give it a 1, but boy is it a challenge to accomplish a task. What took a click or two to accomplish a task in our previous system is now 4-6 clicks and necessary to open multiple tabs.

It would have been 10 were it not for some feedback from clients re multiple bookings.

JRNI is better than Appointy in many ways like easy to use interface, time to time software updates, and real-time support.

It's the only system I've come across where courses can be added very easily. If I had 10 courses to begin with, and suddenly I needed to set up 100 or more, I can do this in a very short period of time. All redundant steps have been eliminated by the clever design.

• Since the rollout we've become less efficient, thus causing the need for additional headcount to accomplish tasks previously handled with technology.
• Our main focus has been drawn away from growing the business and towards purchasing other systems to supplement the missing components that we were told existed within the system, increasing our overall tech expenses.
• Using disparate systems is not only time consuming, but riddled with bad data.

• The fact that clients can book themselves online has reduced pressure on our staff and allowed them to book out of office hours.
• Our clinic staff have more data for each client, and thus are better prepared for each appointment.
• Moving and amending appointments has significantly increased employee efficiency, allowing the team greater time to deal with other items.
• Customers are sent important information prior to their appointments, and customer satisfaction regarding the whole process is greatly improved.
