    Apptoto
    For people dealing with a high volume of clients and are heavily reliant on meetings. For someone who is not dealing with much traffic, it is easier to keep tabs on their schedule and stay on top of their appointments, so Apptoto will be just a luxury. However, make sure to keep a backup source as well, for example, a mobile calendar.

    BookSteam
    BookSteam is suited pretty much for any business that takes appointments. It's perfect for businesses who don't want the hassle of phone scheduling, rescheduling, calling people back and talking to the answering machine. Everything is automated and done online. I believe they even offer class scheduling, so that is also perfect for businesses who need group scheduling.

    Apptoto is quick to fix any issues we have with software, though they are few and far between, and integrates well with a variety of software including Clio!

    It is comparatively cheaper than Schedulicity and provides more value for money in that regard, it is better for a higher volume of users working in an organization. Apptoto provides better customer service and faster resolution to issues that may arise during the use of the product in a new and unfamiliar organization.

    I tried to use few other scheduling systems before but I always thought they were somewhat incomplete, something was always missing, from design point of view to missing features. For me it's always about ease of use and how everything is organized. I can say that BookSteam got it all figured out and I recommend it
