    Genbook
    I never had to reach out for any help with the system, there was really good information on how to use Genbook. Any time a new feature was out, the how-to video was right there with it. I hate that Genbook merged with Booksy, I've had nothing but issues with Booksy, There's no customer service at all, on any forms of communication if you need help with Booksy.

    If you are planning large events and you need an accurate headcount, the SignUpGenius is for you! Additionally, if you are trying to get a variety of volunteers to meet various needs, then you should really check out SignUpGenius! One specific way that we have used SignUpGenius is by getting the parents of our youth ministry students to bring refreshments to youth groups on Sunday mornings. We set up a SignUpGenius sign-up sheet where they can all sign up for various Sundays to bring refreshments, which really helps our students focus on Sundays.

    Pros
    Genbook
    • Manufactured time for my more essential job duties as owner
    • It requires a credit card for all scheduling. Takes away the whole ask awkwardness.
    • Sifts out the not so serious purveyors of massage and keeps those that are.
    • Provides gift certificate purchase in increments or whole amounts. Saves me time.

    SignUpGenius
    • Easy to access. No login or registration is required for people to sign up for slots--just click the link and go.
    • No real technical expertise or knowledge is necessary to successfully use the tool.
    • Several different options/styles of signups are available.

    Cons
    Genbook
    • The end user’s (the customer's online booking view) is cumbersome and not very appealing in appearance.
    • Email to your book of business via Genbook is missing.

    • Some of the layout and terminology are a little confusing and could be more user-friendly. It took me some time and playing around to figure out that the days and times you put in are a step which just produces a grid of possible times, and that choosing which slots to activate is a second step required. It later made sense why it was set up this was (allows you to input a large block of times at once and then select the particular ones you need, and makes it possible to add a second person with a different schedule on the same sign up, giving the appointment setters more options overall to choose from)
    • Wish it would intuitively (or add an option to...) replicate location for any additional days and times you add to the same sign up. Has to be manually added (or copied and pasted).

    I don't have any feedback for support because I have not had to use support (if referring to IT support). If this question is in referral to support from other staff/company, then it has been received well in that sense.

    AcuBase Pro is my practice management software. The only overlap for me is that they both function as customer databases. I would love to see integration between the software in the calendars.

    I prefer the use of SignUpGenius as it is more user-friendly. I am not limited to 10 questions and then have to pay for additional features. While I do not like the additional feature payment, as we are a nonprofit, I will continue using the free services.

    Return on Investment
    Genbook
    • Save me money. I do not need to hire a receptionist. People book directly online often without ever speaking with me.
    • People can book at all hours of day or night.

    • Being able to share the form with people inside and outside your organization allows less back and forth via email when scheduling meetings - saving time and money
    • The free version is available as long as you'd like - it's not a trial version - a lot of companies can get away with only using the free version
