Bookaster
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.
