My experience with Kenko as a booking tool has been excellent, providing the essential features I needed to efficiently set up and manage my business operations.

Pros

How efficient the tool and the team work, along with the personal support you receive, can be crucial as a young entrepreneur.

Cons

Honestly, for me, it has just been a very uplifting experience.

It has been great! I wouldn't of been able to do it without [sensitive content hidden] and I am so so grateful to have had her for my onboarding! Can I keep her as my main point of contact?! :)

Pros

I have really enjoyed the support you provide for onboarding. [sensitive content hidden] was great and i hope everyone gets someone like her to onboard them. When seeking a booking system, support was very important! The system is intuitive and easy to navigate and which makes the stress of learning a new program substantially less. I am overall very impressed with the CRM.

Cons

The onboarding videos that help you walk through step by step will often times be a white blank screen when you open it. I also would like to be able to pop out the videos so i can navigate the system at the same time. You get this in onboarding with your coach, but i would of liked to be able to work through everything on my own first with a little more ease.

Additionally Revenue Splitting and reporting is definitely needed. A lot of the local yoga studios and fitness facilities provide a revenue split for payroll and to stay competitive, I would like to do the same.

Cons

Like any new company, there are some kinks. However, the staff is nimble and fixes get addressed quickly. So, that's a pro.

Kenko - Deceptive Business Practices

Reviewed on 2025/01/08

Terrible. I would run as fast as possible away from this company.

Pros

Initally, everything looked great, it seemed like a good fit for our business

Cons

But after signing the contract, and seeing they used misleading verbiage regarding cancellation in their Terms and Conditions, everything went downhill. We used them for one month, didnt even get past the onboading, and they refused to release us from the contract, even though they stated 30 day notice to cancel (not edited). Very shady business practices. They offered to waive the subscription fee, but we would be locked into a business with a non compete, and have our clientele have to experience their business practices.

Kenko has been a game-changer for my studio. The platform is intuitive, user-friendly and packed with features that make managing class schedules, client bookings, and payments so much easier.
I was assigned [sensitive content hidden], as a point person to help me through the onboarding and set up and she made the whole process an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, [sensitive content hidden] demonstrated exceptional knowledge, patience, and professionalism.
If you’re considering Kenko, go for it—it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my studio. And if you’re lucky enough to have [sensitive content hidden] assist you, you’re in the best hands!

Pros

I appreciate that I was assigned a specific team member to work with me through the whole onboarding process. [sensitive content hidden] made everything so much easier and the fact that we could build a rapport helped make everything move more smoothly.

Cons

The onboarding was quite a long process and the videos were not nearly as useful as the meetings with my contact person, [sensitive content hidden].

The onboarding process was smooth and thorough. [sensitive content hidden] was amazing—she guided me through every step and was always available to answer questions or resolve any issues. Since booking software is new to me, having her support made a huge difference in getting everything set up properly.

Pros

Kenko is an easy-to-use booking software that works well for both businesses and consumers. The intuitive interface makes scheduling and managing appointments seamless.

Cons

The system can be a bit slow at times, and I haven’t yet figured out how to accurately connect a payment system to the software. Some improvements in this area would enhance the overall experience.

Overall positive experience with transferring from our old system. Everything is much easier to use and having the website, mobile app and admin end of the system being integrated together allows our team to provide and more cohesive experience for our members.

Pros

Cons

No hourly setting for staff payroll or percentage option for paying staff that are appointment based.

I love Bookee and and the dedicated manager AB that I have for support about ANYTHING! He is very knowledgeable on the entire system and takes me step by step, answers all my questions and if he doesn't know it right off top he will let me know he will follow up once he has the right answer. We have 1 on 1 weekly meetings to make sure that I am confident and comfortable with Bookee and He always updates me on all the new functionalities coming soon with visuals too. I am able to train my staff with ease and its fun because of how easy it is to move through Bookee. I recommend Bookee to everyone for your brand and business because it will make you and your clients happy and take your brand to the next level!

Pros

I love how straight to the point Bookee is visually. I love the simplicity of how to navigate through the platform.

Cons

There is no test mode on things besides the notifications. There are no training documents or manuals or anything electronic for you to be able to go back to when you need help or have questions as a new client. I know there is support but they are not always available. you send a message and then an automated message comes to you and sometimes your question still doesn't get answered.

Bookee = Smooth & User-Friendly

Reviewed on 2023/11/02

Pros

I really like how easy, smooth, and user-friendly Bookee is. And that's on both ends - the frontend, customer-facing side of the system as well as the backend, management side of the system, which I use almost daily.
The system isn't buggy at all. It is amazingly and awesomely smooth running. Also, it is full of many features. Features to make the functionality better for you and your team; features to make the functionality better for your customers; features to make your workload less; features to help you evaluate and improve your business. And, they are constantly adding more features to the system to continue making it better and smoother.
Bookee integrates seamlessly with many other applications that you need to run your business. As a result, Bookee makes your job easier.
Lastly, the team was very attentive and helpful every step of the way during the system onboarding process. There was a lot of handholding throughout the process - and I mean that in the very best way. There was no point when I ever felt like I was on my own as I was setting up the system for my business.

Cons

There are a few challenges with Bookee.
The schedule/calendar, from the customer's point of view, could use a little tweaking. When a class session is canceled, it would be better if it showed as "canceled" rather than being removed from the calendar. Deleting the canceled session from the calendar can look like the class is no longer offered which can be confusing to customers. Also, it would be great if the schedule/calendar had more viewing options, like an option that only shows the days that classes are offered and leaves "no class days" off the schedule. For example, if you don't offer classes on Fridays, it would be great to have a schedule display option that doesn't show empty Fridays on the schedule.
Though Bookee is really good about considering requests to change the system, it can take a really long time for them to make the system changes that they agree to make.
Technical Support acknowledges inquiries very quickly. However, they aren't always timely in resolving the problem you inquired about. Sometimes, they resolve issues in a very timely way. Other times, they are very slow to resolve issues.
Account managers change often. In the last 6 months, I've had 3 different account managers. Though the changes have happened for understandable reasons, regularly having to pivot and adjust to a new manager makes it hard to build a relationship with them.

Mindbody was constantly up-charging me while making my life more difficult on their very archaic platform. My main goal was to find a clean, up to date, and new company that made the experience for myself and my users very intuitive and easy. People are not always very tech savvy so a program on the user end needs to be simplified while doing what we need. And on the back end it needs to be robust and intuitive at the same time. Bookee was exactly what I was looking for.

Pros

As a Product Manager, I really took my time when selecting and comparing different booking and scheduling softwares, from Mindbody, GloFox, MarianTek, Bookee, Wellness Living, and 4-5 other options. Bookee really stood out as the winner with its modern, user-friendly customer facing UI, and sophisticated functionalities in the backend.

Customer support is easy to access, and I love that they constantly have new features rolling out. As a customer, I feel heard.

Also, the customer service is outstanding. Whenever I’ve had an issue or a feature request, Bookee has always addressed it in a timely manner.
