### "What great support!"

March 8, 2018

4.0

Pros

Great support. Very versatile pricing structure. Basic reporting is easy. Easily integrated into our website.

Cons

Not the easiest system to get used to - clunky. Reporting is limited - basic reporting is easy enough, but finding anything advanced is difficult, and automated (e.g. emailed) reporting is non-existant. Discounts limited - can only be $ based, not based on number of tickets.

Pros

Ease of use of the system, excellent customer service, system stability, easy routine changes, easy to create new activities.

### "Doesn't work, cost me customers "

June 3, 2025

1.0

Company won't acknowledge that they have charged me dor months for a product that never worked. Won't answer requests for refund.

Pros

Sysyem never worked as decribed. Caused absolute chaos. Won't answer emails or refund money. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY

Cons

It didn't work, ever. Software sent confirmations with double the price. Messed up onhoarsing so existing reservations were lost. System could not even get our open hours right.

### "Simple and Effective with Amazing Support"

August 7, 2021

5.0

From initial set-up and training through to today, the entire experience has been smooth. I was confident enough in my understanding of the system about 3 days after we first got it to train our entire staff. Every interaction I've had has been positive and I would confidently recommend Zaui to anyone looking for this type of software.

Pros

The incredibly fast set-up and ease of use for frontline staff is a major plus. The on-boarding and support teams are very responsive and go above and beyond what one would expect. The number of features that we could grow to use in the future is impressive as well.

Cons

It would be nice to be able to disable/further customize some aspects of the software. We use Zaui for a free tour offering, but there is no ability to eliminate dollar amounts and checkout language, even on the customer facing end. I do recognize that we are in a tiny minority of users with this request, and they have noted it.

Reason for choosing Zaui

Like many sites, we suddenly found ourselves needing booking/reservation software very suddenly in 2020. After comparing products and doing demos with other top contenders, we went with Zaui for a number of reasons, but a large deciding factor was how excellent and responsive the team was in working on an impossibly tight timeline. One other positive for us was that this is a Canadian-based company, although this was not a major consideration.

### "Scalability"

August 13, 2019

5.0

The biggest benefit I have gained from Zaui is added efficiency. We are able to do more with fewer people, and we are able to work from wherever we so please. I can even Zaui while having sushi, and I often do.

Pros

We are into our fifth year with Zaui, and as a business. We began with just one van so it was a relatively easy process to get up and running with a simple schedule. Fortunately we discovered a local niche that needed to be filled, and a year later we were up to ten vans and counting. Houston has two airports. Zaui makes it easy to create express runs to each airport, as well as multi-stop activities. The software is highly-configurable and once you have established your schedule it will allow you to track and manage a fleet of vehicles, drivers and their passengers. On our busiest days we have moved more than 500 passengers in a dozen 14-passenger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans. I couldn't imagine trying to tackle that with pencil and paper, or even a printout. Zaui allows the drivers to see an electronic manifest that can be refreshed in an instant as the office personnel moves passengers around as necessary. The drivers can check-in their passengers and it is instantly updated in the system. The reservation itself is easy to read and looks professional, because it is. Our customers don't even need to print it out because the driver, either has them on the manifest, or is able to search by name or confirmation number. The driver can check them in even if they are scheduled for a different shuttle time. Zaui staff is amazing! They are always pleasant even when I am not!!

Cons

We have over 31,000 reservations now, so the Lookup feature shows some instability when trying to retrieve a name from the database. Private shuttle reservations don't show on the schedule until a payment or partial payment is made. We work around this by leaving notes at specific shuttle times where we expect this group to be. I have yet to see a photo of Zaui's huge office space. When I call in I can hear people in the background more than fifty feet away. I have heard the ceiling is made of wood. Must be nice.

Reason for choosing Zaui

This is a redundant question.

Thank you for your awesome feedback Charles! It has been incredible to be a part of your amazing success story! We chuckled a bit at the "huge office space" comment. Although we aspire to have a warehouse for an office one day, our close-knit quarters will have to do for now! We are incredibly grateful to have partners like you and are always here to support your business, no matter your mood, no matter the size of your question. Thanks for riding with us! We can't wait to see what is next for Galveston Express!

### "Good booking system "

April 13, 2021

4.0

Overall it’s been a good experience and we’ll stick with their software for a lot longer.

Pros

Zaui software has been amazing for our online bookings. It considerably has lessened the workload of phone bookings and been very useful to connect with third party sellers of our product.

Cons

Initial setup was cumbersome and a little frustrating. As is making some alterations. Just the system not having the capacity to understand our product. We always find a way though.

Hi Dean, Appreciate you for taking time to share your feedback with us. It's great to hear that Zaui is delivering value in helping with offloading phone bookings and letting the booking engine do the heavy lifting for Toby Creek Adventures. Also wanted to add that it's been a pleasure working with your team (Nicole) in switching over to the new online booking engine, and setting up staggered intervals for your ATV tours to keep both your team and guests safe. Let us know if there's anything else we can help with! Best, The Zaui Team

### "Convoluted and clunky"

May 15, 2023

3.0

Feels like as zaui expanded, they just kept putting patches on patches to make things work, and now it is not a streamlined machine. Sticking with it for this season to see if it gets better with more use....but not holding my breath

Pros

It can do a lot, and it looks good from an webpage booking view, but....

Cons

But despite its breadth of functions, it is very complicated to set up anything. There are so many options and menus that you have to switch between just so that you can create a basic activity. Booking tours isn't as easy as other platforms I've used. No calendar view that is functional. Their "knowledge base" (their online help website" is nice when it points you in the right direction, but multiple times I've had it show me to do things in a strange way, and then their customer support says \[sensitive content hidden\]. Oh ya...and their phone app foe backoffice still doesn't show availability of tours when trying to use it to book. It's been "getting fixed" for at least 4 months now.

Reason for choosing Zaui

Flexible pricing plan so customer doesn't land with a 6% booking fee.

### "Zaui Review"

April 18, 2019

5.0

Overall experience has been fantastic. I have never found another company that offers the same level of customer service as Zaui does. They work one on one with businesses and really help you with getting things set up properly.

Pros

It is very versatile and the customization ability is fantastic. Customer service is second to none. The staff are exceptional at helping figure out any issues and getting them resolved quickly. API connects very easily and seamlessly with all the major OTA's.

Cons

It would be nice if there was a set of templates to choose from for the booking window design.

Pros

\- Easy to use - Allows you to connect to other companies using Zaui - Great customer service - Great POS system for mobile agents

Cons

### "Zaui experience"

April 17, 2019

4.0

We were so lucky to have one of the reps as our immediate contact. She is very efficient and always willing to help out. Every time we had a question in regard to Zaui functionality, she took the time to show me how to do it in a fashion manner.

Pros

The software is user-friendly; it is easy to change times available in the activity, and mostly everything I was able to do it by myself

Cons

the mobile app needs more work, sometimes checking in passenger was slow and shows a couple of messages, it should be with a simple swipe, but sometimes do not work. Now that we have designed our front end booking system, the round trips are registered as a single trip in Zaui back end, this is causing a major problem identifying bookings for customers and not to mention accounting aspect.

Seamless ability to automated all booking related, billing and check-in functions. iOS apps are also critical to our success.

Pros

It can handle every scenario I have, no matter how random Easy to sell on other platforms East to setup, navigate and administer Amazing support

Cons

The backend user interface could use with a bit of a refresh, it functions perfectly, just looks a little dated. That's really the only think I can think of as a con.

### "Moderately satisfied and sure hoping things get better"

April 7, 2023

4.0

We can now take credit cards online and have a book now button on our website. This has freed up a lot of time on the phone taking credit card information and manually entering other details into trip manifests.

Pros

The same people answer my questions, and for the most part have been able to solve things that are system critical. It keeps all of our bookings in one place, and we can set the parameters of each trip to be different. Adding products like rental items to an activity is a nice addition. When I'm signed out after a period of inactivity and I sign back in, I am returned to whatever page I was working on. I like that.

Cons

When I am creating a new activity, I have to have already creating my pricing code for it (there is no way to click on pricing and be taken to a pop up that lets me add a new pricing product). So I have to open up another window and go to pricing and then make a new one.There are way too many options, so it makes moving around through Zaui just terrible to learn for a new person. It would be great if you could customize the features that you use, so that only they show up for a user (for instance, I only ever use a direct link HTML to embed my zaui booking page into my website. I have to go to embeds and widgets and each time, select direct HTML link, it doesn't keep that as my default. Oh, and even better than this, would be that once I finish an activity and save it, that the link would pop up automatically on the same page so that I don't have to go through the process of finding it each time - and if I have a separate window open with the trips, I have to refresh it each time I add a new trip, and then that puts me back at having to select direct HTML link again). It's slow, cumbersome, and doesn't autosave. The save button should be at the bottom of pages as well as the top. Lots of other things, unfortunately, are frustrating and I believe could be simplified and made more effective to work in the back end.

Reason for choosing Zaui

Canadian, and seemed at the time to meet our needs.

### "Your quest seeking a new res-tech solution is now over!"

April 20, 2021

5.0

My overall experience with Zaui has been exceptional from the start. We have been using the solution since 2010 and look forward to many more years of service together.

Pros

We have been using Zaui since 2010 and can safely state that the decision to employ the software was simply transformational to our operation. There are hundreds of similar type offerings all ranging in price; technical abilities and promises. I am quite confident in saying if you are reading this review then you have already looked at many of them. As my title states .. .your quest is now over! From the outset, I engaged with this process in searching for a res-tech partnership and not a res-tech purchase. From my initial contact with ZAUI in 2009 to my most recent conversation with their team yesterday, the engagement has always been exceptional professional and customer focused. The transtitional process cannot be underestimated and Zaui offer an abundance of experience in this department ensuring a seemless cross over to their system. If there was to be a single PRO to be listed it would be the dynamic evolution of the software ... when buying into the relationship with Zaui you receive a solution that meets and grows with the customer and industry needs.

Cons

We were one of the first public transport companies to adopt Zaui as a res-tec solution for our operation and we seemed to be playing second fiddle to tour and activity operations in terms of product evolution. This however has changed radically over the past 18 months and now the solution is very much transport focused.

Reason for choosing Zaui

I looked at many alternative products over a period of 2-3 years. At this stage it would be impossible to list them but suffice to say that of all the options I researched, I still believe I chose the right one.

### "My Review "

April 4, 2019

4.0

Pros

\- Activities and packages fairly easy to build and get up and running - I love the ability to connect with other systems and the OTAs - I appreciate the help from reps. They are efficient, professional and knowledgeable. If they're not sure about an answer, they check before stating it as true. Other support staff has not been as helpful.

Cons

\- Reliability - It seems that with every fix that is released, one issue is solved but then another problem occurs or key functions are removed. - Slow loading - Need the ability to custom design the manifests - Communication - I wish there was more communication as to when updates are released and what the update includes. - It can be very time consuming to get stuff completed. I.e. removing bar codes from our system, updating the training website to match the live site, etc... - The email/SMS notifications should be an easier process. Creating and editing them is difficult and time-consuming. They are a great feature but need to be more user-friendly. - We have created so many workarounds for our charters department. It is not a usable system for our charters division without these workarounds. - Not having the ability to edit some of the hard-coded wording on our website along with the receipt portion that guests receive when printing their tickets. - Need the ability to archive old stuff like employees, agents, activities, etc... - Need the ability to put date bands around everything. It's frustrating to have to link and unlink activities depending on availability. - Reports not being the correct i.e. report by agent, summary by activity - The reports available for accounting purposes are not detailed enough or contain so much additional, unneeded information that manipulating the report isn't any faster than the other system we have in place.

### "Best reservation system I've ever used (and I've used a lot)"

March 17, 2022

5.0

SInce about 2010, we have been using online reservation systems. We went through the first three over the course of 4 years and none of them had features we required. Zaui was the first (and only one) that gave us all that we needed and was easy to use. Love, Love, Love the Zaui system.

Pros

Its intuitive. well laid out and the reports have everything our accountant needs. Including tracking unearned revenue, gift certificates with balances, etc.

Cons

Hmmm... the ability to easily pull up values on gift certificates. It was a multi step process. But we asked if there could be an easier way to do this and BOOM! They had their developers work on it and now the balance pops up when you enter a Gift Certificate number as the form of payment.

Reason for choosing Zaui

Zaui is a much richer program than any others we have tried. It served are needs in every respect

### "Critical issues with software reliability"

July 31, 2019

2.0

It started off being a good software and I enjoyed the professional help from their technical team. Unfortunately once their frequent and lasting outages started to happen, I have lost complete trust in this company and product!

Pros

The software is sophisticated and has many features that are designed for the hospitality industry. The software is relatively easy to use.

Cons

If you are looking for a reservation software/platform that experiences frequent outages that can last for 24 hours during peak tourism season, this software is for you. They have literally lost their clients thousands of dollars due to their reliability issues. Unfortunately, our clients only sees your website and this flawed product will directly impact your reputation. Until they fundamentally improve their reliability and work with their third party infrastructure providers (Microsoft Azure), I can not recommend this company/product. Unfortunately it is very difficult to change providers halfway through peak season, otherwise I would have!

Hi Pieter, Thanks for being with us for the last 2+ years. We are extremely apologetic on how the recent outages have affected your business. We realize how critical your booking system is to your operation and please rest assured that our technical team did not sleep until this issue was resolved. As you are aware, we experienced a critical outage in the architecture that runs behind the scenes in Zaui. Although it was not a direct problem with the Zaui element of the architecture, it resulted in a massive slow down of all systems on the Zaui platform. These types of outages are not common and many companies have been involved in the restoration of the entire ecosystem and source of slowness. The Zaui team has been relentless in assisting and solving the technical problem with restoring everyone's system to faster and more reliable service than ever before. We completely empathize with your position and would love to build on the foundation we have created with LIVV Adventures.

### "1 system for all the bookings"

March 14, 2023

3.0

Pros

That it has an inventory which is easy to use with rentals. We do not have to count our stock every day in peak season.

Cons

That the Zaui Do and Zaui Stay are still 2 diffrent systems, soon they will cooperate and makes it so much easier.

Reason for choosing Zaui

Zaui has an all in one solution.

### "Zaui helped Copper Cayuse Outfitters build a better business"

April 16, 2019

5.0

We did a deep dive on about four booking platforms before we made the decision to go with Zaui. As an operation we were ham strung with phone calls and had a great deal of difficulties keeping track of bookings and taking payments. During my search I found that most of the booking platform offered essential the same features. The difference was location and the level of personalized service. Zaui solved most of our operational sales, booking and payment issues and allows us to concentrate on our operations offering the best in horse back riding experiences.

Pros

Zaui is easy to use and set up was easy with the support provided. We were up and running with a few days and were quickly able to use the software to stream line our business. Zaui was able to quickly customize parts of their program to fit our business.Our business doubled in the first year of operation with Zaui and grew by 40% in the second year and we expect continued growth in future years. Zaui integrated into our website seamlessly to provide an easy shopping experience for our customers.

Cons

Integration into our financial system has been a bit of a challenge, but now seems to work fine. More comparative reports from one year to the next would be helpful.
