OnceHub is an online appointment scheduling and digital engagement platform developed by the company of the same name headquartered in Claymont, Delaware.
To schedule single contact (like a welcome or monitoring call) and highlight other services like a specific one-off webinar or recordings to watch. To provide more regular scheduling like a series of calls/classes.
For all things bookings, including meetings, sales calls, events, and client onboarding, ScheduleOnce is the dominant software hands down. For shorter forms, such as quizzes and exercises on an online course, FormOnce is the far superior sibling as it's able to accommodate all needs, size, length, and customization.
Syncing BookSteam schedule with my iPad calendar. Whenever appointments is made online, it shows up in my iCal.
Payment integration. We set it up so when clients schedule appointments online, they are required to leave a deposit, otherwise they can't book. This cuts down on clients who are not serious about showing up.
SMS reminders. Clients receive automated sms reminders which almost eliminated no shows.
I really wish I could put tracking pixels (i.e. AdWords conversion pixels) on the booking thank you pages. Having to direct to a thank you page on another platform is kind of a pain.
The Salesforce connector pricing is a bit steep.
Basic live chat capabilities would be awesome. Implementing a live chat widget alongside the ScheduleOnce widget can be a bit cluttered design wise.
I tried to use few other scheduling systems before but I always thought they were somewhat incomplete, something was always missing, from design point of view to missing features. For me it's always about ease of use and how everything is organized. I can say that BookSteam got it all figured out and I recommend it
ScheduleOnce is the only platform that offered an easy way to send text messages to clients. I appreciated the ease of adding a few questions to qualify potential clients prior to getting onto a call with them. Easy to use and the customer service experience I have received has been great.
