Zoho Bookings is a very intuitive software. It is reliable and allows easy booking of services. It is very easy to use and has a nice GUI.

Pros

Seamless integration of the software with other Zoho enterprise products. Availability of automated reminders and general software flexibility.

Cons

The product has all it takes except that it has limited customization especially in the user interface.

Terrible. I have hundreds of emails and follow ups tring to fix the deficiencies and problems with their product. I have invested so much with them but I am trying to find an alternative now as the cost and frustration is not worth it. It is a genuinely terrible product.

Pros

The concept. The concept is amazing but it rarely works and when it doesn't work you spend hour trying to sort the problem and then the help desk finally get involved and the screen share and have you do exactly what you have done and then tell you it's a back end problem and tell you it will be sorted in 12 to 25 hours and 3 days later after many follow ups it works.... But then another problem exists since the changes.

Cons

The fact it doesn't actually work. 2 hours ago I had a paid booking and received the email but the booking has not 2 hours later shown in my calendar. Last week I had an appointment in my Calendar that had been there for a month and bookings allowed someone to book a meeting over the allotted booked time. It took Zoho 3 days to fix it and then it created this new problem.

Cost. But it was not cheaper because of the hours spent trying to fix ongoing problems.

My overall experience has been positive. The platform is user friendly and very easy to book and manage your meetings. No training required at all.

Pros

Zoho Bookings is easy to use tool for your meetings. The interface is user friendly and customizable and can be easiliy integrated with other Zoho Products. Its quite easy to manage appointments, meetings, etc. You can simply share the link with the client and they can select the slot and duration as per predefined schedule set by you.

Cons

I personally don't find any down factor about Zoho Bookings.

Endless back-and-forth emails and phone calls no longer exist for scheduling thanks to Zoho Bookings. It has saved me time, made no-shows so much easier as I can simply free up the slot, and it has made it really simple for clients to book sessions when they want.

Pros

Managing appointments and client meetings has been so much easier with Zoho Bookings. Setting my availability, creating booking pages and automated reminders are super easy. The connection with Zoho CRM and other apps is a great plus, making my whole process easier.

Cons

Mobile app works, but it's could be more user friendly and bring as much functionality as desktop.

We have had a very good expereince with Zoho Bookings. We use it almost daily in our business.

Pros

The flexibilty to design your booking page and the information it captures. Also that it seemlessly integrates with the other Zoho products.

Cons

I would like more options in the themes and color schemes.

Easy to deploy, simple solution overall but a positive experience.

Pros

Very easy to use, free plan available, integrates with Google Calendar, and does what it promises to do.

Cons

Nothing specific to dislike, I think the tool is mainly designed for venues/physical businesses which is not the case for me, but still works great.

Pros

It came with my Zoho One subscription, which in itself was a cheaper alternative to the usual booking tools other coaches use. It was easy to setup and has tons of customization options, from availability to reminder/confirmation emails and the look and feel of the booking form.

Cons

The iOS app doesn't do everything you can do on the website, but meets most of the basic needs to manage bookings.
