Very user friendly. > > **Cons**: The price point is higher than similar salon booking software, customer service isn’t as responsive as I wish they were > > Overall booksy biz is effective and efficient and it’s user friendly. Cost is a little higher than I’d like it to be ----- ### "Evolve with Booksy." — 5.0/5 > **Robert** | *23 October 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Booksy make it easy to put yourself out there as a barber to the general public. If someone is looking for a barber on booksy you will be an option. Great for new or existing barbers. Booksy makes it very easy to organize your day and allows for a coherent days plan. Booksy is very affordable for the value that you get in return. It’s a very easy platform to learn to use and is a very secure system regarding the barber and clients privacy. The app has built in marketing tools, and promotion features to remind your clients about upcoming appointments and to remind the barber about cancellations, etc. The app is very customizable in regards to cancellation fees, text reminders, and more. Booksy is great. > > **Cons**: The 30% ( $10 minimum ; $100 maximum) boost feature commission. Makes it hard to offer affordable offers to first time clients. > > Booksy Biz has been a lifesaver as a new barber and has really helped me build and organize and grow as a barber. ----- ### "Complicated Setup and Glitchy Features Limit Its Usefulness" — 3.0/5 > **Shawna** | *15 December 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: The client-facing interface is clean and easy for customers to use. Booking pages look professional, and automated reminders are a helpful touch. The idea behind the platform (giving service providers a simple way to manage appointments) is fantastic. > > **Cons**: The backend setup is confusing and far from intuitive. Many of the features feel half-built or glitchy, and customizing services, availability, or pricing often requires too many steps. Customer support is slow to respond, and updates sometimes break features that were previously working. For a platform that’s supposed to simplify scheduling, it often creates more friction than it removes. > > My overall experience has been disappointing. While the client-facing side looks polished, the administrative experience is frustrating and inefficient. I spent more time troubleshooting issues, re-entering details, and hunting for settings than actually using it to manage bookings. There are better, smoother scheduling platforms available, and for the time investment required, Booksy Biz didn’t deliver the reliability I needed. ----- ### "client accessible and user friendly" — 5.0/5 > **Nancy** | *24 October 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The set up was easy and there are a lot of features I haven't used yet but the general ones that it has are very beginner friendly > > **Cons**: as a hairstylist I do gift some services sometimes and would like the add on of putting a service as gift or free consultations as 0$ instead of having it as a service and placed at $1 > > It is very easy to use and my clients are more then happy to download the app if it means that they have more access to book online ----- ### "Best of the bunch." — 5.0/5 > **Tracey** | *2 October 2025* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about Booksy is the ability to book my clients indefinitely. Other apps didn’t allow this. > > **Cons**: What I like least about Booksy is the difficulty for clients to receive communication from scheduling. > > After using other scheduling apps, Booksy seems to be more suited for busy Barbers. Barber schedules are different from beauticians schedule. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/36687/booksy?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/36687/booksy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
