"Great customer support, easy to learn"


What do you like about BookSteam?

Booksteam helped us streamline our old-school manual signup process. Customers can search by location, practitioner, class type, etc. and they can book AND pay online. It integrates well with our online calendars, too. Also, I have to give a shout-out to their customer support team which is second to none. We had a LOT of questions when setting up the system, and I can honestly say there was not a single time they did not reply quickly and concisely (usually within a 2-hour window; sometimes as quickly as 5 minutes). This is a HUGE step up from the customer support at the two other scheduling services we tried.

What do you dislike about BookSteam?

There are 3 things - two that' are fixable and one that's not. First, I wish they would have an app for the iPhone (they do for the Android), that would make it a lot easier for our practitioners to view client info. Second, their interface is simple but slightly dated; some small tweaks would go a long way in giving the interface a slight "facelift". Third, I would just say that the setup process (particularly for multiple practitioners across several locations) takes a loooooong time. But I think it would with any software that has as many capabilities as this one. Once the setup is done, though, the hours it will save you in the future make it all worthwhile!
