HoneyBook vs. OnePageCRM

I would recommend Honeybook to other coaches, consultants, and small business owners. It may not be appropriate for a large team's use, but works for the size of organization I currently own and manage. It also integrates with QuickBooks and makes financial data management fairly seamless.

OnePage is great for any company with a sales team. Onepage is great for lead tracking, and showing all communication in one place. Its timeline is easy to use and understand. OnePage also makes it easy to manage a sales team. Their reporting capabilities are excellent and it is a great way to track deals.

• HoneyBook offers incredible resources to train users how to best use their system. It's informative and eye-opening to watch one of their training sessions.
• I love how easy HoneyBook makes it to create highly professional materials that are beautiful. Its brochures and selling materials are stellar and I'm able to streamline the process without feeling like I actually have to sell my capabilities.
• I'm thrilled with the billing system and how simple it is to automate. I love that I can see how my customers have engaged with the bills.
• The app helps me feel connected to my leads and data while I'm away from my computer.

• It uses a split screen: one half is your action stream, the other is for a selected contact. This is really helpful.
• You can do mass actions-- like rescheduling a group of actions for another day.
• "Tags" are a handy feature... it's sophisticated enough to trigger automated follow-ups in our mail service, Klaviyo

• The online scheduling tool does not work with different time zones very well. It doesn't automatically adjust to my clients' timezones and it doesn't even have many international time zones as an option! I had 3 clients in a row schedule meetings at the wrong time when I first started using HoneyBook's scheduler. I had to switch to Calendly because HoneyBook's scheduling tool was causing me to lose business.
• The transaction fees for instant deposits are expensive.
• [I believe} many of the features on HoneyBook are half-baked. It's marketed as an all-in-one business management platform, but I'm still using Calendly, Google Drive, Typeform, Clockify, and ClickUp because HoneyBook's equivalent features aren't as sophisticated or as easy to use.
• The notes section for client projects does not have much space or allow for any custom formatting such as hyperlinks, bold text, highlighted text, etc. Tools such as Teamwork, Pipedrive, Asana, and ClickUp do a much better job at displaying this type of information.

• The ability to interface with all or many VoIP services would be top of my priority list
• Skype is not a favourite of mine, but Google hangouts is which is now included with OnePageCRM
• The ability to create email templates would be good. I have a separate app for that, but it would be good to have it on board

Since I do not use ALL the functionality in HoneyBook, I have wondered if the plan I am on is too much. That is why I rated a 9 rather than 10. I have definitely considered downgrading but not leaving HoneyBook.

This is now a copy-paste response since this platform is asking me to answer every single question. It is such a negative experience with Honeybook that they even upset me while I'm trying to warn others of all the horrible pitfalls in working with the platform.

They have ALWAYS been amazing when I needed any type of service or help. Their concierge service is also amazing vs other services I have used in the past. I have confidence when I ask for help - both through Chat or even on their Facebook group that I will get an answer quickly.

We switched to HubSpot after a few years of the company using HoneyBook. We switched to HubSpot because we needed more features that would allow us to automate our processes and pull better data on our clients, their vendors, and our overall client process. I appreciated that HoneyBook was its own booking/payment system, that it was easy to use and set up, but ultimately that was not enough to keep us in the platform.

We use all these software for task management and email marketing. OnePage doesn't send out mass emails and we needed a more robust task management system, so we use SharpSpring and Asana as well.

• Workflow/task management has increased our bookings and saved lost opportunities by 25%.
• Customization of brochures and contracts allows us to fully represent our brand through the sales process.

• OnePage has helped with time efficiency for the sales team. Because OnePage is so easy to use and manage, our sales team can spend more time selling and less time working with the system.
• OnePage is great for organization. It helps us track our daily schedules/tasks and shows all communication clearly in one place.
