“I mean, I think you should provide the possibility of adding more than one employee to the reservations. That when creating a reservation from the calendar, it is not possible to enter the client's phone number among the data. That it does not allow more data to be displayed in the Preview of the calendar cards.“

### "Great value and does the job "

April 21, 2022

5.0

I love how responsive support is.

Pros

I like how the backend of the plugin works well and looks very nice - such a refreshing thing compared to a lot of other plugins. It allows us to do a lot of complicated booking without hiring a custom development firm. I also like that there is lifetime license and the pricing is very reasonable for small businesses.

Cons

A few glitches here and there. Like we cannot seem to make custom fonts work and also cannot find a way to easily customize button styles.

Reason for choosing Amelia

It does almost everything I need to do without a high price tag

### "Amelia - Wanted to love it but just couldn't"

October 12, 2023

4.0

After about 2 months of trying to get it to work we gave up and went back to Calendly and then TidyCal for our scheduler.

Pros

I loved the ability to load onto my Wordpress site with a plug in and sent auto reminders for appointments

Cons

We never were able to get the time zone issue figured out even with multiple calls to customer support - who attempted to be helpful.

Reason for choosing Amelia

Was able to purchase it at a very low price

### "Worked until it didn't"

July 3, 2021

2.0

I bought this a few years ago because it was affordable. It worked fairly well. When I needed assistance I was told I had to submit a new ticket under a new email address instead of just having the problem addressed. Eventually Amelia stopped working. Amelia said it was because of a plugin. I uninstalled all plugins and the problem persisted. Amelia then said it was because of server. I contacted server (Host Gator). HG told me it was because of Amelia. The issue was never resolved. Long story short it is not a good product as it will stop working leaving your business in peril.

Pros

inexpensive, simple, more words her to fill minimum word quota on this question

Cons

limited tech support, stopped working all of a sudden, couldn't resolve issue

Response from TMS

July 14, 2021

Hello Justin. We're sorry to hear you are not satisfied with Amelia. Full support for the plugin is offered only to paying customers, so if our agents asked you to open a new ticket under Amelia section, they did it so they could verify the purchase. Either way, if the plugin didn't work correctly, your issue should've been addressed regardless if your support expired or not. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. If the issues you were experiencing were manifested in a manner that is similar to a conflict, the first step is to troubleshoot by deactivating other plugins, but if that didn't work either, we could've logged into your website, and see where the issue is coming from. The plugin is working correctly, and we would like to see what's going on with yours - to help you out, so please feel free to open a new ticket on our official support platform, and our support agents will gladly assist you! Once again, sorry for the inconvenience.

### "It is great to integrate automatic scheduling on your wordpress site"

May 12, 2022

5.0

Good

Pros

I used it on one of my websites to handle automatic scheduling with trainees as well as clients. Also, I could add my team easily, and each had his own profile, services, pricing, and schedule. It was super useful.

Cons

I wish I could integrate with another tool to take the customer database into MailChimp or another CRM.

### "Powerfull Plugin with some quirks, great support (Pro)"

August 19, 2025

4.0

I have been using Amelia Pro for a few months now and it is a great plugin offering quite a bit of functionality. For me it was really important to have events & appointments in one plugin as well as the possibility of a lifetime licence rather than subscriptions models. The plugin has some quirks and missing features (event tickets & dedicated pages per event rather than popups …), but the support has always been helpful and dedicated to fix any issues I’ve run into.

Pros

\- Ability to manage both events & appointments - integrated payment solutions & integration with woocommerce - decent costumisation options - very dedicated support - lifetime licence rather than yearly subscription

Cons

\- some missing features (but development continues) - sometimes unintuitive ui - somewhat lacking documentaion

### "I started with the free version and purchased the premium; I have it on 3 websites"

October 18, 2024

5.0

Excellent. I started with the free version and purchased the premium; I have it on 3 websites.

Pros

I tried the free version first (it came with my theme). Then I bought the premium version ( I can have it on 5 websites) and I have it on 3 websites to date. The support is excellent. I have been impressed with the depth of this plugin from day one and I'm building my digital assets around this plugin. I have spent time with the documentation, which is very detailed ( I build websites-my plan is to build environments where I and other independent contractors can work remotely and virtually) and this is very important. It takes time to set up an online business that is fully functional and supports my business objectives. Ameila makes this possible. It is the best booking plugin to date. Keep up the good work!

Cons

They do not offer website templates! The demo templates arew AWESOME but they do not offer templates. Also, The templates are centered around health and fitness; Offering a variety of templates, say an event organizer template, would have been awesome.

### "Using for consulting bookings and payment"

March 28, 2025

5.0

I've been using the Amelia WordPress plugin and have been really impressed—especially with the custom booking options. It's incredibly flexible and lets you tailor the booking experience to your exact needs. On top of that, the support team was fantastic during setup—responsive, helpful, and quick to resolve any questions I had. Highly recommend if you're looking for a powerful, user-friendly booking solution!

Pros

The custom booking options for one employee across multiple services

Cons

Figuring out Special Days and the initial setup took a support request but they helped me set it up in the Admin.

Pros

Some elements need to be translated manually Once you get the hang of it, the app is pretty smooth

### "This is the booking plugin you need for Wordpress"

January 23, 2023

5.0

An absolute pleasure to use for developers, managers and customers.

Pros

I have so many positive things to say about it. From the pricing, all the way through to configuring it and also how reliable and stable it is.Simple things such as being able to create an event and have the option to recur each booking whilst treating the individual event dates as separate events (For example a fitness class that happens at the same time every week, but doesn't always have the same attendees) – saves hours of admin time of creating events. But also at the same time having the option to add a series of events (such as a 4 week course) that a user pays once for and has access to all events at once is invaluable from a management perspective.Amelia also handles scheduling and working hours like a dream. Being able to pick Employees' individual services, working hours, time off and 'special days' is just fantastic from a management perspective.The packages option, combined with the step-by-step customer booking form has been optimised for conversion out of the box. It converts, and it does it whilst looking great.Not only is the frontend slick, organised and good looking – so is the management side. It's been an absolute pleasure configuring the plugin and learning how customisable it is along the way. Not only that, it's really really fast to make changes. I got a new client site set up from nothing to complete and live in 3 daysThe customer support so far has been good, and the fact they offer a lifetime license is an excellent move.

Cons

I have a few suggestions that will make the plugin better:1. Being able to add packages for Events and not just Appointments – so the user can sign up for a monthly pass that gives them access to x amount of classes, or unlimited classes. 2. Built-in customer subscriptions. Amelia can be set up to work with WooCommerce's checkout and handle subscriptions, memberships etc – but I want that seamless checkout experience that you get without redirecting to WooCommerce or having another plugin installed. Being able to offer a subscription at point of sale would be fantastic. Even just having a 'recurring' package that charges the user every month.3. Please, please add native Apple Pay integration into the Stripe payment gateway. Mollie supports Apple Pay but they are a nightmare to deal with unless you are in a specific industry or in a specific country.

Reason for choosing Amelia

Feature rich, full integration, fair pricing and huge offering.

### "Reliable and good work companion"

May 24, 2022

5.0

The overall experience has been very good.

Pros

I like its complexity. It does cover a lot of important bases. Also after a learning curve it is rather easy to use. Like its color and branding customisation. Reminding emails have already been my lifesaver.

Cons

I would like to have an option that the same paying customer (in my case a parent) can book a service for different children under his/her own name and email address and not to exercise with different emails for each child. I also use a virtual office and would love to have an option to add it as a proper official location. For the time being it is required to only give a physical one. And would also like to have a possibility to manually add a consultation beyond official working hours.

Reason for choosing Amelia

It gave me more services and consultants possibilities.

### "You won't find better for the price"

May 12, 2021

5.0

I am using Amelia on 2 sites at the moment. The first is a mobile massage company site, and the second is an online nutritionist site. For both the massage and the nutritionist site, the ability for clients to have their own customer panel and schedule and reschedule their appointments if necessary is fantastic. The package feature and Integration with Zoom for the nutritionist site is perfect for the client's needs. The Amelia plugin is a joy to use and set up. I love using it and will definitely use it again for other clients

Pros

Very easy to use. Has lots of features and is easy to integrate with other services. Has features that are hard to find in other similar software. I love the packages feature, I like that it has a customer and employee panel. Integration with Zoom, Woocommerce and Google calendar is really useful. The interfaces both front and backend are beautiful. I love the fact that customers can schedule their own appointments when buying packages. This software really does have everything that you need.

Cons

The customer support could be a bit faster in responding. Although it isn't a deal-breaker. The ability to customise the form fields for booking could be a little bit better, so that information captured when the client first booked an appointment could be retained somewhere, again, not a deal-breaker. The ability to customise the styling of the front end booking forms could be more extensive.

Reason for choosing Amelia

The packages - I couldn't find any other booking plugin that had this functionality whereby users could schedule their own appointments after buying a package. The price - There really isn't anything out there that has the same features for the price and without being tied down to monthly subscriptions. The integrations - integration with Zoom, Woocommerce, and being able to sync with Google calendar, SMS notifications - it is so professional when a user receives an SMS notification. Their confidence in the company that they have booked with is increased. The beautiful booking front end interface

### "Genuine review"

June 23, 2022

5.0

Great product, great service, and great and knowledgeable technical support in a timely manner.

Pros

Easy to set up and configure....even for complete novices like I am. They have great supporting documentation, and customizability is just perfect. The company stands by their money back promise....I accidently requested a refund....but ended up purchasing the next day again. The issue was on my side not theirs, yet they kept their promise without delay. They have awesome support, and technical support...with a willingness to help you sort your problem out. Trust me....the Amelia product makes life much easier....and gets clients to book. Don't waste time on other plugins. This works very well, and saves a great deal of time, while at the same time looking good.

Cons

Personally I would have liked it if the customers did not have to log into WordPress to configure their customer panel. Would have liked everything happen on the front end. But....really it's a minor taking into account the product as a whole.

### "Support was excellent with the issues I submitted."

March 10, 2022

5.0

For our purpose it is probably the best available plugin for bookings to use with wordpress.

Pros

It is fairly easy to setup and looks very clean and professional on the front-end.

Cons

The very complicated process to setup and sync my Google Calendar to Amelia. Even watching the tutorial video was difficult because the person doing the Tutorial seemed to have issues and struggled.

Reason for choosing Amelia

Some where more expensive, others where very difficult to setup and some even required coding/programming knowledge.

June 23, 2022

5.0

I love the booking system from Amelia, it's really easy to use and set up. It has great integrations with payment systems and calendars and even enables SMS/text notifications. Best of all is the support that's professional and quickly reactive to issues that always occur in software development, having to be compatible with so many other plugins.

Pros

easy booking, reasonable price, good integrations, good support.

Cons

Old version that was updated now was a bit harder to book with, the list of my treatments did get very long, also people found it hard to spot a scrollbar for the appt. times. But all is fixed with the new booking form introduced.

### "Beautiful but with issues"

April 4, 2022

5.0

The Amelia employees are willing to help and kind, but at certain times (I guess when new releases were coming) the communication was lacking behind. I really had issues for a while and if I didn't have a back up internetsite my business would have been in much trouble. The best solution it seemed was to rebuild my internetsite from scratch (and later also the second one). And yes, there are no issues anymore. So it could be that the releases during this last year already made it more stable? Overall I am very happy with the final functionality.

Pros

Amelia has all I need as a one-man organisation. The scheduling, payment, emails, Zoom-integration it is really a lot and is nicely integrated. Next to that it is easy to customise and it is affordable. Also throughout the last year the functionality grew, which is great!

Cons

The moment I implemented the software my site broke down. Now this wasn't the worst for me, because I had two sites. Though the issue stayed for weeks. I had a lot of communication with the service department, provider and theme developer. In the end I don't know where the actual issue was: the database version, an underdeveloped theme or Amelia? For sure it was a combination. I guess Amelia is built on the latest versions of wordpress and databases. If there is a tip: be aware of this. Nevertheless I am now very happy with the working of the software. It is all fine and stable.

### "Amelia - An Intuitive and Flexible Booking Solution"

April 5, 2023

5.0

Pros

I have been using Amelia as a booking solution for a service oriented company. I've found the tool to be comprehensive and flexible. During the instances I have run into issues, the Amelia support team has been responsive and proactive in coming up with a response or resolution. I am happy to see them incorporating customer feedback for future enhancements.

Cons

There could be additional flexibility built into service customization - particularly around adding and managing service extras.

Reason for choosing Amelia

The Developers license was at a very fair price-point. I feel the Amelia team is transparent, and gives customers the ability to propose enhancements. It's also great that they have a responsive support team that can help you work through issues when required.

Very comprehensive booking features may satisfy various needs. Integration features are also great. I love its Google Calendar sync feature that helped our team see appointments at a glance.

There is room to improve accessibility. Need some tricks to integrate with Google Analytics.

May 12, 2022

My experience with Amelia is excellent! Really no regrets!

Pros

It's rich in features, and the support is really great. It helped my client a lot, increased its sales in about 10x. The option for "Any Employee" is crucial. Its design is really good too.

Cons

Its design is good, but could use some improvement in the booking form for package option. Selecting multiple employees in package form would be great! Also, in the general booking form, when you enable the package option, it comes in a way that confuses the users. The package coming before the single booking led customers to ask wheter or not is possible to book a single appointment (which could cause some abandonment, i think?).
