Support and staff are excellent to work with from [sensitive content hidden] on down! [sensitive content hidden] & Thanks for a great service.

Pros

NextME first helped our municipality help get city services running again during the pandemic; keeping our staff and customers safe as possible during spacing precautions. Now after the pandemic, our customers and staff like it better than the old take a number and wait around old school way.

Cons

It is very dependent upon network connectivity so make sure you have a sold and secure network or the app will not refresh in a timely manner.

Response from NextMe

Thank you for your positive feedback! We're always happy to help and glad to hear our waitlist solution is still adding value to your team and customers beyond the pandemic!

Great customer service by John.

Great customer service by John.

Pros

That it's ready to go not much modification is needed

Cons

That couldn't have a cap for the queues we made. Which would have allowed consumers to sign up on their own for certain queues.

Response from NextMe

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear your team enjoyed NextMe's easy setup process and customer support.

Regarding capping the number of guests per queue, we have a new version of NextMe that includes this feature request. Please don't hesitate to reach out to your account representative to help you get started.

Thank you again for your honest feedback and we look forward to working with you again in the near future!

My company hosted a fan convention with 800+ people and we used NextME to implement a waitlist into our celebrity autograph lines. It 100% transformed the convention game for us, and it removed the unnecessary waiting times that attendees were expecting. It also kept our autograph room calm and organized.

Pros

This product was very easy and intuitive! We were able to teach it to our volunteers quickly. We also loved the customization of adding multiple list types. It works very well for our event.

Cons

There wasn’t anything I disliked about the software. Maybe the ability to remove the quoted time would be nice, but it was great.

Reasons for Switching to NextMe

I chose NextME because they offered a one-time event price instead of requiring you to pay monthly and only be allowed a certain number of entries to the waitlist. I loved being able to fully use the app, just for the time that we needed it.
