Pros

“The platform provides a comprehensive and efficient solution for managing schedules, tracking employee hours, and maintaining clear communication within a team.”
YM

Yasmin M.

Administrative Assistant

“Its user-friendly design reduces the learning curve and allows both managers and employees to navigate the system with ease. Despite some minor technical limitations, Deputy consistently delivers on its core functionalities and contributes to a more organized and productive workflow.”
YM

Yasmin M.

Administrative Assistant

“However, improving accuracy in time tracking and making payroll calculations clearer would significantly enhance trust and reliability in the sytem.”
MD

Max D.

Night Audit

Pros

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

Janapher S.

Administrative Coordinator

“Acuity filled the scheduling gap where we needed it. As we grew the business, it provided us with quick wins in standing up a new business model that required dynamic scheduling across multiple platforms including M365, Postgresql and Retool. ”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Eric T.

Director, Digital Transformation

“My favorite feature is that I can set specific appointment times on my availability calendar such as 10a, 1pm, 3:30p . ”
JD

Jennifer D.

Owner

Cons

“At times, the app could feel a bit complex for simple tasks, and some features required extra steps.”
RS

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“This can be frustrating when, for example, an employee returns early from a doctor's appointment, thinks they have punched in, but their supervisor finds out when approving timesheets that the punch was not logged.”
AE

Amy E.

Vice President

“For Australian Users - this product is NOT COMPLIANT to pay in accordance with the awards.”
ND

Nicole D.

Manager

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

“That it doesn’t offer enough customization for the scheduling interface.”
CF

Colby F.

Personal Trainer and Nutritionist

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