When I started looking for a booking system I was unsure whether we were going to be able to find one that fits our clients' needs. We offer bespoke services to the corporate sector and occasionally are required to recommend a multi-venue booking system. We found Booking Live who have set up several systems to meet our clients needs, they also provided account training which is really important...

We have saved so much time with this system. Allowing students to book their exams online and make changes to their booking online has saved a great deal of admin time. Students can also book when they want without having to wait for a response within our opening times. The system has been a great success for us!
Flexibility to set up lots of products on different dates/times with different capacities. We also helped introduce the option to allow changes to bookings within the online account, which has been a massive benefit to us!
Reports are quite rigid. We have requested the option to create reports, so we can export what we need, as opposed to 3 different reports that we have to cross reference.
Hi Rebecca, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, and we are glad to hear you are happy with your system! Best wishes, Bethany Dunster.

Lots of hope and great expectations that didn't come though. Should have been a 3 month project and it took 15 months with lot of heartache, extra money, and a finished product that doesn't perform.

Service, project management, increasing prices, continued delays.
Hello Tim Can you confirm you're an existing client with us? The only record of a Tim we have no longer owns the business owning the website referred to and I have been in contact with the owners of this website to confirm they are happy with the level of service we provide and the booking system is working well. We appreciate the feedback given, but it sounds like the system being talked about here was 2 years ago and therefore this is not a fair representation of the product today and the level of service we provide to our customers. Over the last 2 years we have taken on more staff and improved our process and procedure in many areas. Kind regards Robert Cox Business Manager Booking Live

Generally we have found this platform and Booking live to be an essential part of our business. The system is reliable and the content editor side is one of the better CMS systems that i have used, allowing for a lot of customisation within the templates. Its easy to manage images, content and extra features. The biggest problem with the booking side of things is the size and power of the system....

Bookinglive is a great tool for any business who requires a booking tool. I feel both the admin and customer user experience is brilliant and they are always updating new features etc. Having tried many different booking platforms I felt BookingLive was the most comprehensive one on the market for a great price.
Feature upgrades happen quiet often

BookingLive provide extremely powerful software and have a very friendly and professional customer service team. I have used and recommended booking live to my clients who wouldn't have a clue how to harness such technological knowledge. Working with BookingLive my clients have been able to increase profit and improve business efficiency. They've even received bookings and enquiries from international customers. Thoroughly recommended. Great service, system and partner. Thank you to the Booking Live team!

Booking Live is really great at allowing us to capture as much data as possible at the point of booking. As teachers are often hard to contact, it's great to get as much from them as we can while we have their attention. Really good setup, quick and easy. The new system has been well received by our parents and teachers alike.

Software has offered a service we previously have been unable to offer to our customers taking in a huge volume of online bookings and monies. There are a few frustrating things like any software but we have been raising enhancements with booking live and can see solutions in future releases.

As someone who doesn't have a ton of knowledge with html and using CMS, I found BookingLive easy and intuitive to use. I was able to work on the site and do what I needed to do without pulling my hair out!

I was first taken by the great features this solution has, being in the trial period, I had a few questions, which I felt their support was not keen to answer. After requesting an answer to my question twice, I gave up. If you're an entrepreneur, leave it. You'll just end up chasing them. Customer service is very poor.
seems to have great features
Bad support
Hi Alex I'd just like to clarify that support is only available to customers on the Enterprise, Business and Pro plans as you can see here: http://www.bookinglive.com/online-booking-system-plans-pricing/price-comparison-chart-uk/ As you were not a customer, you wouldn't have access to support. I also have no record of you (Alex) contacting us via email, website or forums. I'm not sure if you confused us with another company but if you have any questions regarding the product, please contact us via our enquiry form or telephone and I'll be happy to help. Kind regards Vinnie

Came to bookinglive for a new system as I was previously with a competitor. They were more than happy to sit down with me and talk through my requirements without charging! The system itself is very flexible and while it may not look as nice visually, it's certainly packed with features I've not seen with any of the competition.
good and friendly support team very flexible to my needs value for what you get is fantastic customisable beyond comprehension! good manual
higher barriers to entry, need to be a bit tech savvy
Hi Robin Thank you for the feedback. Something we're proud of is the high level of flexibility and functionality within the product and we're now focussing on the user experience to make all that functionality easier to use! Thanks for your custom Vinnie

Hi Rebecca, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm sorry to hear you don't feel our booking software is customer friendly. I've spoken to a couple of your colleagues and they've had positive experiences, which they've shared in a case study on our website. You can view it here: https://www.bookinglive.com/resources/case-studies/sports-for-schools/ The user friendliness of our software is something we pride ourselves on, so it'd be interesting to hear some more detailed feedback from you, so please do email talk@bookinglive.com Kind regards, Caitlin Marketing Executive Booking Live www.bookinglive.com

We have recently gone live, with some glitches, but this is fairly standard for software implementations. The Booking Live team are very approachable and friendly. Support has been excellent. Skylark, who designed our website, are very good and we are pleased with the website. The new Booking Live software is a great improvement on the previous version.

The new release of booking live is extremely user friendly and very easy to pick up and use. There are a few glitches which will be ironed out in the second release but overall the system is very flexible and allows you to design a booking website tailored to your every need. Vinnie and his team are a huge help and able to guide you through every step of the set up! Thank you booking live for all of your help!!

We looked at many products. Only BookingLive/Mango could build what we wanted. From point of contact to our website going live was about 5 months. We had some special requirements which they understood and delivered the same time. We paid extra for "out of scope" reports but these now work fine. So far we've had many positive reviews from our customers.
professional friendly people to deal with, good client process, prompt after care.
quite techy, needed to assist with testing
Hi Kathryn Thank you for your positive feedback and we look forward to continue servicing you in the future. Kind regards Vinnie

If you can think of a process you have internally that is curently managed by a person using a spreadsheet or any other form of static record that needs to be manually update and therefore isn't a real time booking system you need to engage Booking Live to demonstrate the way it can and should be done.

Buona facilità di uso, velocità nelle prenotazioni e una interfaccia piacevole.
Poche funzionalità rispetto ad altre app concorrenti, a volte si è bloccata. Poco stabile.
