About

Bookaster is appointment-scheduling and CRM software for local service businesses - hair and beauty salons, barbershops, dental and medical clinics, gyms, studios and restaurants. Each business gets a branded booking page where clients self-schedule 24/7, a staff calendar with per-employee availability and multi-location support, and a client database with full visit history. What sets it apart is WhatsApp: confirmations, reminders and post-visit review requests are sent automatically from the business's own WhatsApp number, which is what reduces no-shows. Clients can reply to confirm, reschedule or cancel, and the calendar updates itself. It also covers invoicing and receipts, expense tracking, revenue reports, staff commissions, prepaid packages, walk-in queues and marketing campaigns. Runs in any browser and installs as an app on phones and tablets. Available in 7 languages including Arabic (right-to-left). Free 90-day trial, no card required.

About

Simplify how customers schedule and manage appointments. Your customers will love the flexibility, convenience, and control they get with Bookings. They can visit your booking page whenever they want, book the time and service they need, get a confirmation email and calendar invitation, and reschedule or cancel if they must. For customers who prefer to book by calling you, simply enter their appointment details and Bookings sends all confirmations and reminders. Bookings gives you a fast, easy alternative to time-consuming, frustrating phone-scheduling. An easy-to-set-up, customizable webpage lets your customers find available times and book appointments 24/7. You get a private calendar for managing your appointment scheduler and automatic confirmations and reminders that save time. Missed appointments are bad for business. Decrease your no-shows with automatic reminders for customers and staff.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I like some of the structures in place. It is great to be able to sync bookings to your outlook calendar, assign specific staff to certain projects, and send custom reminders to attendees.
  • The biggest pro is integration with the rest of the Microsoft 365 universe, due to its status as a native application.
  • Easy for customers to use. Integrates with calendar. Fully Customisable. Allows buffer times and work hours so you don't book yourself out and miss out on lunch, etc.
  • Microsoft Bookings is helpful to us when we want to set aside office hours for people outside of the church to make appointments with our staff. Works great!
  • Microsoft Bookings is included in the business subscription made available by Microsoft so it does not charge an extra fee. It works pretty well with other apps like outlook mail.

Cons

  • There are some very specific issues I've run into that make it more difficult to use bookings. For instance, you cannot limit the number of sessions a certain day (ie no more than 5 bookings per Monday) and have to instead only use time buffers and hope it works out. It's a minor issue, but something that is important for the appointments I need to use Bookings for. There are several small inconveniences like this that all together add up to a larger annoyance.
  • It’s a bit less than user friendly, and is missing a lot of features found in competitors.
  • The long URL it generates! The home page is not really that customisable.
  • I wish it was more helpful for booking meetings for our staff. Perhaps some type of ability to sync with Microsoft Outlook better?
  • It requires up to a decent amount of configuration and staff requires training.
