25 reviewers had the following to say about YellowSchedule's features:
I consistently receive feedback from my patients of their appreciation for the appointment notifications.
I just have to tap the date and time I want and click on my clients name and their appointment is scheduled.
The ability to receive incoming SMS messages is an advantage of Yellow Schedule as we have found that some of our customers prefer to communicate via SMS if they are unable to answer their phones to schedule the appointment.
It was perfect for entering the world of online scheduling and email and text reminders, and it fully supported my efforts to begin a paperless practice.
Pros

Hi Kari,
Thanks for taking the time to share your positive feedback on YellowSchedule with other users, we really appreciate it!
We've responded to user feedback that setting up recurring appointments was more complex than it should be and we've completely updated this feature. This now supports a much wider variety of repeating appointments.
Best,
Martina
And, I love that it sends out a reminder email; which has eliminated last minute cancellations and reschedules.
It allows me to keep in contact with my clients and the reminders have cut my cancellations down no allow me to fill the slots when someone can't make their appointment.
The only two modifications I really could use are clients able to cancel their own appts and a "customizable" appointment status list.
In fact, many say: "You don't need to give me an appointment card because I will get those confirmation notices."
Pro: Provides email and text notifications with easy response instructions Syncs with my Google Calendar Con: It doesn't update my calendar when a client cancels.
Staff can see their appointments, and receive notification when appointments are booked, but also Management can also see all this information at a glance, and easily investigate communications between staff and clients - very effective for any complaint or query!
We have used Yellow Schedule for 2 years now and it has cut down dramatically on the administrative burden experienced in matching up student availability with staff availability. The reminders/notifications are especially useful in maximizing attendance.

Recommendations to others considering YellowSchedule
The company is responsive to suggestions for improvement and great at trouble-shooting
I like that they cannot remove or change an appointment without contacting me as this provides me with an opportunity to engage and discuss barriers to consistent treatment.
My clients appreciate the reminders and the fact that they can communicate with me concerning their appointment or other matters back through the service.
I fully recommend this site to other therapists who want to spend time treating clients, not scheduling, rescheduling and confirming/reminding those clients about appointment times.
it is easy to use, price is good (mine is included with my website so all i have to pay for is the messages sent), many of the clients like the text messages and email reminders. I dont really have anything to complain about!!
