## Reviews

### "Took a bit of time to get used to the new format, but it's grown on me\!" — 4.0/5

> **Alexandra** | *15 February 2018* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is the number one way for me to have clients schedule meetings. I give them a login, and then they simply mark down the time and date they want to participate in an event. They sign up at they're leisure, which makes managing it even easier for me\!
> 
> **Cons**: Setster is still incapable of allowing me to have multiple events that can be signed up for simultaneously. I must first complete the sign ups for event A, before I can begin the sign ups for event B. This occasionally results in a loss of sign-ups, or confusion for the people registering for an event. It also adds an element of unnecessary pressure, so that both A and B are ready to go when I need them.

### "Been using and making suggestions since Beta. Excellent idea, gives me edge over local competition" — 4.0/5

> **Matthew** | *31 August 2017* | Music | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lots of features and customizations. Has brought in several hundreds of clients through the doors over the past couple of years all without lifting a finger or answering a phone call or trying to reach out. Love the bios and profiles and app has improved quite a bit.
> 
> **Cons**: Calendar doesn't function well, never used it but would be nice to show only Setster appointments instead of all appointments. Also no way to import availability from another software. Have not seen a release with new features/bug fixes in at least a year.

### "Automated on scheduling side, bit more on accepting side..." — 3.0/5

> **Jose** | *6 September 2017* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Automation on the scheduling side makes it easy for the clients. Ability to customize time slots makes it easy to manipulate a  schedule for lunches breaks and holidays.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes  glitches cause double bookings. Time zone fields sometimes confuse clients. Also Accepting each appointment tedious if large quantity.  There's confusion with "Appointment has Changed" mostly cause we have to cancel the old appointment manually on our end .  Finally sometimes there's appointments with no reminder  or confirmation from time to time.
> 
> Ease of automating appointments on the scheduling side.

### "Customer service keeps me coming back but some of the features are very frustrating" — 4.0/5

> **Ryan** | *15 October 2017* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The look and widgets that make it easy. Customer service is excellent and I have always been pleased even when an issue is not completely resolved.
> 
> **Cons**: The lack of live phone and e-mail inks in dashboard, the lack of an easily accessable list of clients appointments,  the mobile scheduling is not easy to use and looks nothing like your product its confusing and throws most of my clients off so that I have to do extra work to make it right for them,
> 
> Less time on the phone. Clients like the control. Web based scheduling.

### "Setster is an excellent booking software" — 5.0/5

> **Donald** | *31 August 2017* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have been using setster since 2012. It is helped me grow my business and so many ways. The best feature is that you can add online booking to your website. I would wake up and clients will have booked overnight. It streamlines the client booking process into one complete package.
