SMBs get a beautiful customizable booking website, or teams can insert a booking widget to the website. The system offers a full range of different booking website templates that administrators can choose from and then operators can personalize each one so that it fits the brand colors as well as add images of the logo, service providers and company locations. What differentiates SimplyBook.me from other booking systems is that it is based on custom features. So, administrators can pick the custom features to include in the booking system and then pay accordingly. Custom features allow operators to accept payments, enable Intake forms, offer Instagram bookings, sell gift cards, offer loyalty points, implement waiting lists and more. The clients will receive booking reminders sent either by email or SMS. With the system, users can connect with Facebook, Instagram or Google and thereby add a 'book now' button, allowing clients to book an appointment from selected channels. Users can download the admin app, and be notified every time a new booking comes in. Supervisors can see the calendar for the day, access clients and of course add, change or delete a booking if needed. By using SimplyBook.me operators can also nurture the relationship with clients. Professionals can have a list of all clients who have booked services and send automatic book soon notifications, emails, and more to let customers know about the latest offerings or send promotions and discounts. Stakeholders can also offer clients a branded client app, enabling customers to rebook services. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 1282 users.

Dashboard and calendar views are great. Cost is reasonable. > > **Cons**: Loses data for integration with other CRM tools. Number of required fields can be optimized. Don’t ask same question again. Users should not have to type their name and such twice. > > I got used to it. Initially we had lot of trouble mainly due to number of fields required. It should allow to work offline also. ----- ### "Highly customizable and professional booking solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *6 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the flexibility of the "custom features" system, which lets me pick exactly the tools I need without cluttering the interface. The live 24/5 chat support is exceptional, they’ve helped me solve complex scheduling logic issues in minutes. > > **Cons**: The pricing structure can be a bit tricky because almost every advanced function, like accepting payments or syncing with Google Calendar, requires a "custom feature" slot. It’s easy to outgrow a lower-tier plan faster than you’d expect. > > My experience has been great for streamlining my bookings. It has drastically reduced my administrative "email ping-pong" and the automated SMS reminders have nearly eliminated no-shows. It feels like a professional, high-end extension of my brand. ----- ### "Ok for services I guess" — 3.0/5 > **Katrin** | *8 August 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great features (to have a functional booking system, forget the 'standard' plan, you will need the 'pro' one for sure) overall, great customer service. I like the idea of the scheduling app for providers as well as clients. > > **Cons**: The provider app doesn't have enough functionality to really be useful (this seems to be an issue with all booking systems..) The main disappointment: The features don't work together, even if following the slightly convoluted instructions of roundabout ways from customer service. 2 way sync is pointless - if you're like me and that feature was a main driver to sign up, don't. Bookings for group sessions synced to the calendar create an 'external event' and therefore block further bookings for that time block. The system doesn't recognise it's own bookings. If you're a solo entrepreneur with a life who can't spend constant time on a laptop to block out times in your calendar AND the booking system, this unfortunately makes the whole thing obsolete. > > The customer service is prompt and with small things, very helpful. I just spent over an hour to explain the above issue - not a user problem, but features not working. For the price I expect a smooth operation (setting everything up is very time consuming with many steps and cross referencing.. I trialled acuity, offering tree, momence, all in the same price ball park) so it is frustrating to run into those issues and then be told to send it to the developers as feedback. Duh, if they actually would have tried out the advertised features like a studio owner would use them, it would be obvious. ----- ### "Best booking solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 March 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Saves Time \& Reduces Admin: Users love that it eliminates back-and-forth emails and phone calls for scheduling. This frees them up to focus on their core business, with one reviewer calling it a "game-changer" that takes "chaos out of my life" . Ease of Use: The platform is consistently described as "easy to set up," "intuitive," and "effortless" for both business owners and their clients to navigate . Extensive Features \& Customization: The wide range of features and "custom features" allows businesses to tailor the system to their specific needs, whether for a solo practice or a larger operation . Excellent Customer Support: Users frequently praise the support team for being "swift," "helpful," and providing "creative solutions" via live chat . Good Value: The pricing model, which allows unlimited providers and services, is seen as excellent value, especially for small to medium-sized businesses > > **Cons**: Cost of Features: Essential features often require paid upgrades or occupy limited "custom feature" slots, and some paid add-ons are considered expensive > > Simplybook has been a game-changer for our business. It’s incredibly intuitive and simple to use, allowing us to set up and manage appointments with zero hassle. The automation saves us hours of administrative work each week—no more back-and-forth emails or double bookings. It truly is the best booking solution out there, streamlining our entire workflow efficiently. Highly recommended for anyone looking to simplify their scheduling and reclaim valuable time. ----- ### "Great options to start with" — 4.0/5 > **Anna** | *14 July 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: SimplyBook is simple and I think that’s what I like the most about it. It has all you need when you are a small business or just starting booking. It’s free and it integrates easily (simple link works perfectly fine). A lot of customisation options, maybe even too many (as I designer its advantage for me but for some without basic knowledge about images sizes and colours it might be too much) > > **Cons**: Some paid functions are quite expensive compared to other systems I tried. Also if you’re an average small business owner and have no clue about customisation, the amount of options might be too much. > > Great system to start especially when you’re a small business with not too many requirements. Doesn’t the job well And integrates with google calendar. ----- Page: 1 / 53\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/156049/simplybookme?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/156049/simplybookme) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
