“Customers can only make a note about this; When you use the Multi-shop add-on, it's not always clear what settings goes first.”
GN

CEO

Cons

“I have to manually send invites and manage time-zone changes for each student, which can be time-consuming when I have many recurring lessons or students in different countries.”

José J.

English Teacher

“I have also noticed occasional Bugs and Issues such as delayed notifications, synchronization problems between devices, or events not updating properly in real time. While these issues are not very frequent, they can still create confusion and affect productivity when handling important appointments or work meetings.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Abhijeet M.

Computer Software

“Managing complex, multi-step projects or detailed to-do lists within the calendar feels clunky, as the integrated Google Tasks tool remains overly basic and lacks deep organizational features.”
SS

Samantha S.

Cons

“It has a couple of bugs in the blocking off time section where I cannot just block off a couple of hours of availability.”
BG

Belkis G.

“Clients are not able to see my availability and as a result, they are leaving my website.”
SH

Silvia H.

Owner

“There was nothing that I liked least. If I had to say one thing it was the time slots and figuring out time available was a bit confusing at first.”
