It doesn’t sound like you’ve tried Genbook. I’ve had dozens of clients use it and I’ve never heard a complaint like this from them.

By the way – originally – the free version of Genbook was unlimited but now it’s a 30 day free trial.

However, you say that saving time is of the essence – but I have to disagree.

One GREAT way to “save time” is to make it difficult for clients to book an appointment with you. By making it hard to book appointments – you’ll definitely “save time” and as an added bonus – you’ll have lots of free time because you won’t be bothered by those pesky clients/customers.

Seriously – Genbook makes it easier – not harder – for clients to book time with you. That’s what online appointment scheduling is all about. Allowing the client to book NOW while they’re at your website. Don’t make them pick up the phone – don’t make them waiting until your office is open and the phone line isn’t ringing busy… online appointment scheduling allows them to book right now.

Saving time is of the essence here. So why would owners want to make more work for themselves using a free, partially functioning online appointment system?

Online booking should be automatic and result in LESS work, not more. There are several systems available for much less money and which are easier to use. But you may have to hunt for them in Google.

Cheers.
