## Reviews

### "Works, good service - but can be buggy" — 3.0/5

> **Yaniv** | *21 March 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's still a great way to book appointment within wordpress. It integrates with my website ui and does the job.
> 
> **Cons**: In the last year I had some major bugs- especiialy with the automated reminders. Some of the clients reported bugs while trying book new appointments and lots of time I had to manually doing client bookings. I can say that the support team really tried to be helpful, but unfortunately I decided to move to another solution. I can add that some major issues that I found important to make the app better weren't part of a major upgrade they did this year, including the ability to use my phone number as the whatsapp tool for the clients (so they will be able to text back).
> 
> I have vibe-coded an app that does that and it works really good. I no longer use Amelia and I won't renew the yearly license this summer.

### "Great plugin, great customer support. Real value for money" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *3 November 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Loved the ease of installation and the customer support after I ran into problems, such a big improvement from the Calendly plugin I used previously\! Would strongly recommend adding this to your website\!
> 
> **Cons**: Thus far the only downside I found was the need for having an active employee in your installation and the requirement that employee is visible on the website
> 
> Really quick installation of the plugin. In addition the configuration was easy and very intuitive.&#10;After I couldn't get a service to activate I contacted support which answered over the weekend, which was followed up by xustomer support today.&#10;All in all excellent experience, and I would strongly advice non-developers to use this plugin\!

### "Great for small simple businesses does NOT work for complex booking requirements" — 2.0/5

> **Denico** | *28 June 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The price is reasonable compared with some other booking platforms however despite selling the platform like it can handle complex booking solutions it cannot really
> 
> **Cons**: The sell it has a system that can handle complex businesses but it cannot. Great from small companies but the more complex the business the less it works. There is no receptionist / practice manager view. Becomes difficult to use the more branches and more employees you have. The calendar views are not user friendly. Team members cannot see each others appointments UNLESS you give them full admin access to your entire backend of your website.
> 
> I feel like this company is trying to sell a bigger solution than they have the infrastructure and resources to do. They have only thought about the platform from a platform perspective and have not thought about the actual use case. You can set up multiple branches and have numerous employees but there is no function for a branch manager view, you cannot look at the calendar and get a full view of the branches appointments for the day.

### "Love it\! Great flexibility, layout and supportteam" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *10 July 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very flexible booking plugin with lots of shortcode options.&#10;Easy to build custom booking pages that match your own website.&#10;Clean, modern frontend that looks great on mobile.&#10;Fast, friendly and helpful support team.&#10;They genuinely listen to feature requests and are continuously improving the product.&#10;iDEAL payment integration (a huge plus for Dutch businesses).&#10;Great balance between ease of use and advanced functionality.&#10;Perfect for both appointments and events.
> 
> **Cons**: The PDF invoice layout cannot currently be customized, which would be useful for businesses that want invoices to match their branding.&#10;The invoice does not include the event date(s), making invoices less complete for workshops, trainings and retreats.&#10;It would be great to have a shortcode that immediately displays the contact information form for a preselected event, instead of asking customers to select an event that's already fixed.&#10;A few more frontend customization options would make Amelia even more flexible for businesses creating dedicated event landing pages.
> 
> I’ve been really happy with Amelia so far.&#10;&#10;It gives a lot of freedom to build your own booking pages with the available shortcodes, and everything looks clean and professional, especially on mobile. The support team is also great—they reply quickly, are friendly, and actually listen to feature requests, which is something I really appreciate.&#10;&#10;As a Dutch business, the iDEAL integration was a big reason for choosing Amelia, so I’m very happy they support it.&#10;&#10;Overall, it’s a flexible booking system with a team that really seems to care about improving the product. Love working with you guys, I have a license for multiple sites and am very happy with that\!

### "Polished front end, lots of options, good support" — 5.0/5

> **Roger** | *23 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I really like is how polished and configurable it is. The front-end looks professional out of the box, and there’s plenty of flexibility to tailor the booking experience to suit your business rather than forcing you into one rigid layout
> 
> **Cons**: We use Amelia for Events but the default is always Appointments I wish you could  chose to default to Events.
> 
> I’ve reached out to support a number of times (chat and email). They’re not an “instant reply 24/7” service, especially outside weekdays, but when they do respond it’s clear they’ve actually read the question. The answers are thoughtful, they try to solve the problem properly, and when something isn’t part of the product direction they explain the reasoning rather than fobbing you off.&#10;&#10;Because it’s a feature-heavy plugin, I’ve ended up doing a bit of fine-tuning with PHP/CSS (sometimes using AI tools to speed things up). That hasn’t bothered me — in my experience with more advanced software, a little tailoring is normal if you want everything exactly right.&#10;&#10;I also understand from my own time working in software (I spent 18 months at Oracle as an associate software engineer) that complex products always have a backlog, and that new releases can occasionally introduce unexpected issues. What matters is whether the team keeps improving, listens to users, and stands behind the product — and that’s been my experience here.&#10;&#10;Overall, I’m happy to continue using Amelia and I expect it will keep improving over time.
