    Best point of sale for educational programs.

    Pros

    Ease of use, user interface, fees, notifications, registration forms, discounting, customer service, payment interface

    Cons

    Filtering events. It is difficult to create a link to filter to only a specific category of events. A lot of learnings on URLs needed.

    Response from Bookwhen

    Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback, James! We agree that a proper interface for filtering on events would be a good addition. However, we think the ability to use Markdown to create very customisable options/layouts for filtering is a good substitute in the meantime. We appreciate some of this can feel a bit advanced, so if our help articles aren't enough then we're always here to help you with the code!

    Thanks very much for using the system :)

    Cheers, Bookwhen

    Overall, Bookwhen definitely simplifies our booking process. I like that there are knowledge base to help us get the most out of the system. In terms of cost, the Lite plan definitely provides a good value, especially for small sized businesses like us.

    Pros

    I really like the fact that it can be sync with Google calendar to ensure that our bookings are incorporated with current schedules without any hiccups. The initial setup is very straightforward and I really appreciate the responsiveness and helpfulness of the support team.

    Cons

    I would say that having a wide range of features can be a little overwhelming for some users, especially for a company like us with just simple booking needs.

    Pros

    Simple and works well on a laptop and mobile devices.

    Cons

    Was promised a lot, most membership options however after waiting and being assured it was "one the way" never happened despite promises. Had to move elsewhere.

    Response from Bookwhen

    Reduced administration time, fewer cancellations

    Pros

    The software was really easy to set up and start using. The online help was superb and really quick. Since using the software I have saved a lot of time on administration, feel more organised and my students also like it and find it easy to use.

    Cons

    I have been using the software for almost a year and cannot think of any cons apart from I had some trouble finding my fees charged by Stripe, but that was nothing to do with Bookwhen.

    Response from Bookwhen

    Wow, this review made our day!! Thanks for the love, smiles all round at the office :) Glad to hear we've saved you lots of admin time. Thanks for using the system.

    If you ever have any questions about Stripe then I'd recommend getting in touch with their support. They're very helpful and responsive!

    Namaste, Bookwhen.

    Pros

    Easy to use for both administrators and customers. Really like that you can set up repeating events with ease. This software has made my bookings a breeze. Great customer service too.
