## Reviews

### "Good, but expensive" — 4.0/5

> **Renata** | *5 October 2024* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very complete with so many features, marketing and reports.
> 
> **Cons**: Charger are very, very high.. around $350/month plus the 3.5% and some flat fee cents on top of it
> 
> Worked with them for 5 years, love all the features, but with the economy the way it is, had to switch

-----

### "Do Not Upgrade to Booker v2\!\!\!" — 2.0/5

> **Corinne** | *7 November 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The reports and ease of onboarding employees, setting security levels and booking appointments.
> 
> **Cons**: Once we moved to Booker v2, we found the software to be completely unusable.    Constantly freezing, unable to check out clients without crashing, unable to view past transactions easily.  Version 2 was completely unusable and we were told there was no way to return to version 1.  We lost all of that data and ease of use.
> 
> For many years Booker was a good, functional system.  Version 2 was the worst.   Not able to use to run the business.  Had to leave the service and move to another scheduling company during our busy holiday system as we were losing revenue due to the issues and inability to check clients (who use credit cards) out\!  System just kept crashing.  Do not use Booker version 2\!\!\!\!

### "Easy to use booking manager" — 4.0/5

> **Cassidy** | *13 March 2025* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: App version allowed for easy and quick reference from my smart phone.
> 
> **Cons**: Occasional glitches that were not fixed quickly. Some tasks did not work reliably through the app.
> 
> I used Booker for several years and found it to be easy to navigate. It offers options for how to view the schedule, and a way to keep notes on client profiles.

### "Booker makes scheduling easier" — 4.0/5

> **Ramika** | *17 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The convenience of managing appointments and payroll makes the administrative work much easier. Customer service was always available with setting up,had questions or concerns about booker.
> 
> **Cons**: During the time using Booker you had to ask clients who their cell phone provider in order to get text message and some clients would act weird about giving that information.
> 
> Overall I had no issues with my experience while using Booker. After a while the service became unaffordable for my business.

### "The Worst system I have ever used\!" — 1.0/5

> **Olga** | *2 October 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When it was working properly it was easy to use. Which was very far few and between.  Giving employees access was easy, when the system wouldn't go down...
> 
> **Cons**: The system was constantly down and in service with technical issues.  The system is so slow and frustrating.  It would go down and stop working on our busy days in the salon.  I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT\!\!\!\!\!
> 
> Terrible experience.  I am cancelling and that process is also a headache.  Just as bad as the system itself.  &#10;And it is way to expensive for the experience.  NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE\!
