Gold-Vision vs. vCita

It is the best available solution for small businesses due to the licensing model and the ease of use. For companies like us who implement this for customers, it is easy to implement and train users. Larger companies would prefer to use existing products that have been developed for their specific industry or department.

It makes client communication extremely easy - we can message and schedule online appointments. Clients really like those options. We also like the online payment portal. That way clients can pay at their convenience, and we don't end up with credit card information that requires PCI compliance. It also helps with payments. It would also help with invoicing, but unfortunately, there are only 3 linked payment options (Square, Stripe, and PayPal). If you don't use one of those payment processors, you cannot link to billing.

• Can be easily integrated with products like Sage or Outlook which most small companies use. This provides us with a great customer base.
• It is quick to deploy and most of our customers start using the solutions in less than a week.
• Very intuitive which makes training our customer easy and causes few support calls.

• Great for online appointment bookings.
• Good for taking payments.
• Good for onboarding new clients.
• Integrates with your website.
• Integrates with Facebook Pages.

• In the latest version, the user interfaces has been greatly improved. Some customers disliked the older version.
• Nothing else to complain about, maybe it can be made cheaper?

• Payment collection: We want to have an option to allow clients to choose the amount they wish to pay.
• Improved ease of use with forms.

Overall - easy to use. There are some missing features (like fillable pdf forms), and it also requires using certain credit card processors to link billing (otherwise it doesn't work).

I do miss the days when I could easily call up a rep and talk to them about any issues I had with the service. But I still do hear back from the customer service rep during the week within 24 hours.

Probably the most important aspect would be the licensing model which makes it affordable for all businesses. Can be adapted to the business without having to change the business model around the CRM product.

I liked vCita a lot more for my home services company mainly because it handled scheduling through the software which was terrific.

Incentivized

• It really filled a gap in the market where small business could not afford expensive CRM solutions.
• As we are implementing this as a solutions for our customers we don't pay for it, but it provides a monthly income from supporting the infrastructure this has been deployed on.

Incentivized

• I have no clue
• I'm assuming that we would not have people making appointments with us if we didn't have this service
