Pros

“It gives us an organized way to manage registrations and availability and makes it easier for guests to reserve their spot ahead of time.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Sarah T.

Sr Marketing Manager

“The direct integrations keep client data and referral sources highly organized, letting you see exactly what marketing efforts are actually driving bookings.”
JA

Joseph A.

Owner

“It is a reliable scheduling solution that helps streamline appointment management, improve client communication, and reduce administrative tasks.”

Janapher S.

Administrative Coordinator

Pros

“The PDF invoice layout cannot currently be customized, which would be useful for businesses that want invoices to match their branding.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Lo L.

“It would be great to have a shortcode that immediately displays the contact information form for a preselected event, instead of asking customers to select an event that's already fixed.”

“It offers a clean, customizable interface for clients, automated reminders, and full calendar management – all within WordPress.”

Cons

“Customizing the booking page beyond the basics requires more effort than it should. And if you have a more complex multi-staff setup, the logic around calendar management can get confusing quickly.”
DT

Dimitri T.

consultant

“Acuity Scheduling is on time-based events, so it's not a solution for multi-day events, industries like hotels, and bed and breakfasts.”
DK

David K.

President

“Customizations require CSS/HTML, which non-tech savy users may find inconvenient or difficult to implement changes with.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Terence Z.

Tech Support Engineer

Cons

“You can set up multiple branches and have numerous employees but there is no function for a branch manager view, you cannot look at the calendar and get a full view of the branches appointments for the day.”
DB

Denico B.

Operations Manager

“We struggled a bit with email notifications at first, especially setting up SMTP correctly.”
JB

Jose B.

Administrador

“Becomes difficult to use the more branches and more employees you have.”
