I have used JRNI as retail appointment scheduling software. It is one of the best appointment scheduling tools. It has helped us to maintain personalized communication with our clients. JRNI has also some best services like event scheduling, analytics, and virtual queuing. The best part is, that it enables the user to engage with business on a customized channel.
  • Appointment scheduling
  • Virtual queuing
  • Data analytics
  • Not so easy to use interface
  • Online booking widget is not responsive.
  • Language compatibility
JRNI is best suited for online appointment scheduling for small as well as enterprise organizations. It creates omnichannel engagement with simple scheduling. It enhances customer waiting experiences and provides a boost in adding customers to a business. They are updating and improving their software with time. They are providing the best solutions in appointment scheduling.
  • Scheduling software
  • Event management
  • Data analytics
  • Increased customers
  • Increased sales
  • Increased revenue
JRNI is better than Appointy in many ways like easy to use interface, time to time software updates, and real-time support.

We used for saloon booking for one of our clients. The saloon has multiple locations and many people serving the end customers, so it was a headache to solve the booking appointments through call. So we analyzed JIRNI as it was what we needed a cloud software that does the appointment booking through various methods and does its job very well.

The admin can set calendars for different users and the end customers can book the appointments looking at the schedule of the users, which was very convenient at both ends.

This is a good software for small to medium enterprises with multiple locations and multiple users, taking online payment is easy and cancellation is as well. Caledner look is very helpful to see how busy which user is and how free the others are so that appointments can be scheduled and managed easily, the work load management gets easy using this booking software.
  • Appointment booking
  • Email notification
  • Calendar integration
  • Good ROI
  • Birds eye view for schedules
  • Easy workload management based on appointments for the users

working as workforce specialist makes me hilding responsibility for scheduling and arranging appointments and meeting for all the Headcount of our company which is more than 600 employees, when my company purchased JRNI i have to admit that it has been way much easier for me to schedule those meetings for the employees with the managements and quality coaches, first i had to do it manually on an excel sheet, tbh it was exhausting long process but now with that invention, it became much easier
  • one to one meetings
  • scheduling appointments with client and others
  • making it easy for who are working from home
  • shows all the appts. in any specific department so we can select the available slots for the upcoming ones
  • tbh i would like it to be less costy so all businesses can use it
  • i would like you to add an easy way of communicating through out the app it self
  • less bugs more development.
i can remember the first day i heard that there is a change in our department that the company purchased a new software and we have to get training for it first i was confused then when i took the handover for it was surprised of how easy and useful this application. i started using it to schedule appointments for the emplyees all over the day for the upcoming week back then, i felt like this software features has to be utilized so i started navigating more and more, my manager called me i described how much im surprised from this software ability to organize and manage appointments and meetings
  • booking appointments
  • notifing the other party with the appt. details
  • rescheduling and viewing appt. histoty
  • making one of the most repeated processes easier and simple
  • saving the emplyees time so they can produce more
  • elemenating hassle of arranging and organizing appts. everytime
i felt that its easier to use and includes more features and when they tried to compare the two products JRNI was more suitable for our company and the business process itself as we are dealing with a huge number of employees every day, and also it was suitable for the budget that the finance team assigned for this purchase

We use Bookingbug to accept online bookings from the public. We provide courses on First Aid at Work, Health and Safety such as Moving and Positioning of People, Care courses such as Epilepsy Awareness and many more. Our main courses on First Aid at Work are bookable online through Bookingbug.
  • The best feature about Bookingbug is the way that we can set up our courses so very easily. Nothing quite like it elsewhere. It's a joy to use when I need to amend a course. An event template is set up, then all dates are based on the template. So the Administrator need not set up each course event individually. To amend, we amend the template and all amendments are cascaded down to all dates set up for that specific event.
  • Another feature that's very important is, of course, the link with Paypal and other online payment system. When full payment is received, it receives communication from Paypal that payment has been made at which time Bookingbug notifies us by email that a booking has been made. There is peace of mind and guarantee that the payment has been received.
  • When Booking does not receive notification of payment, the administrator can set the booking to be cancelled at a set number of hours after the booking was set up. You can set this up to one day or 2 hours. The client is informed of this period of time automatically to give them time to make the payment.
  • There is an optional password setup for each client. A client who may use Bookingbug again may be better off setting up their passwords. They can log in to their Bookingbug account when they need to book another course at another time.
  • A very good feature is the coupons and deals. I've used coupons, very easy to use, as with other parts of Bookingbug, and very easy to customise. You can use coupons to give discounts to your regular customers, or to those who book multiple courses/places, etc. I use this a lot.
  • 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.
Bookingbug works smoothly. It suits our business very well. It is brilliant in comparison with other systems in the marketplace (I’ve used three or 4 online booking systems for our business in the past). I've only used Bookingbug for administering course events. As far as this is concerned, Bookingbug is well suited.
  • Better customer service - we are able to acknowledge bookings with confidence that the information we're getting from Bookingbug is accurate and on time.
  • increased efficiency - there is vast improvement in our efficiency when we started using this product.
  • Customer confidence leading to better business image - if customer does not encounter problems when using the booking system, then they will trust that we are professionals because we use professional and reliable systems.
  • A negative impact (a little) is the clients' difficulty in using Bookingbug for multiple bookings. Bookingbug has a capability for multiple bookings. I noticed a few have used this successfully.
I have used TidyApps. It's good, but Bookingbug has a lot more useful features. With other systems, I have no control on the setup or once courses are set up, to amend them is very cumbersome. Bookingbug provides easy and least time consuming ways to do the above. Support is reliable. I very rarely ask for assistance, but when I do the response is on time/quick and good. I feel confident that I'm talking to a person who has good attitude to customer support and who knows what they're talking about. I've always been happy with the response to my queries from the beginning. With other systems I've used in the past, support was not quite so easy to get.
Reliable, professional, easy to use, affordable, good support.
  • Course setup and amends
  • Link with Paypal
  • alert emails about successful bookings with all the details we need about the client
  • none
It would have been 10 were it not for some feedback from clients re multiple bookings.
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.

We run a Social Media Training and Consultancy and we were looking for a booking tool for our social media school.
  • Very flexible.
  • The different types of event and ticket options you can provide are far more advanced than some of the other booking systems available
  • The technical support was second to none and very quick in responding.
  • The main area of improvement for me is the customer interface could be a little easier to use and more flexible with the layout of the controls.
It is well suited to providing several different ticketing options, from group purchase, single purchase and several discount code options
  • BookingBug product has provided us with an easy to use but very flexible booking system.
The main product we looked at was Event-bright but it could not offer the number of ticketing options we required.
We will use BookingBug again when the needed.
