Overall Satisfaction with 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software
Approx 4 years ago, I noted a challenge in reaching students who attend classes online. As we are encouraged to maintain contact with these students, it is difficult to manage at our best with multiple time zones, varying schedules and availability, and other logistical issues. I am part of a team that was exploring schedule solutions. After trying a couple of tools, I chose 10to8 as it provided all the tools and features needed and the price was good compared to other tools. The tool is being used by several people within our department as well as others. However, the campus also has users using other tools at this time as well. The decision often comes down to costs or just personal preference.
Pros
- Online scheduling.
- Reminder by text and email.
- Ability to sync with many personal and professional scheduling tools, such as Outlook.
Cons
- Some of the CRM tools are limited or slow; perhaps an ability to customize for specific needs.
- More ability to customize the schedule page.
- They need an APP for iPhone and Android.
- Enhanced productivity for the direct user.
- Easy appointment scheduling.
When I first evaluated 10to8, I looked at the three different tools that I identified above, as well as some others in terms of features, support, and cost. I tested some of these tools along with others and ultimately made a decision to utilize 10to8 mainly based on these factors. There are several good tools in the marketplace and certainly, in the last few years, new tools have emerged. At that time, what I found is that many features inside 10to8 are similar, or perhaps, the same as some of the features and other products. Again, at the time of evaluation, I found the pricing to be very competitive for the services provided. Other products had similar offerings, often with higher pricing.

Evaluating 10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software and Competitors
Yes - Yes, but not directly. We use Canvas and there is a scheduling tool built-in. The tool is not very good, though some used it. I personally did not, so 10to8 was really the first tool that I used. While ideally, it would be great to use a scheduling feature inside a tool we use daily, the Canvas tool is cumbersome, lacks critical features, and is difficult at best to use.
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
Price is a concern, but I tend to see this as secondary; though the business end may consider that to be one of the more important features. 10to8 is of good value. There may be lower-priced tools available, I am not sure there are lower alternatives with the same features. In some cases, they are lower than others with the same features. However, I personally wanted a tool that was easy to use and understand, not just for the staff but also for the students.
I'm not sure that I would change my process. I spent approximately 90 days evaluating 10to8 And 4 to 5 other tools. Part of my evaluation process was just individually testing different tools and their features. In the case of 10 to 8, I ran a full trial for about 30 days to evaluate how it would work compared to others.
