Acuity Scheduling, a Squarespace company

I use Acuity Scheduling to manage all of my 1-1 client meetings, consultations and podcast recordings. Before using Acuity, I was having to go back and forth with clients and podcast guests to find a time that would work on our calendars - now I can simply send them my link and they are able to seamlessly book a time that works for them.

We use it daily for scheduling clients and workflow for our seamstresses. Helping manage time wisely without overbooking our schedule which happened a lot more often then before we started using acuity for managing the backroom workflow. It has made our process more accurate and kept us more productive by using actual data instead of guessing on how much availability we have open.

• Saving time by managing how much workflow we can bring it and not overflow our schedule.
• It can be difficult finding things in the website. The user friendly aspect is difficult sometimes.
• It is positive for helping reduce the amount of time creating weekly schedules in the studio.

My main use for Acuity is for easy and direct scheduling of clients through our Squarespace websites. The two-way calendar link with the iPhone calendar is the most helpful part of this product for me. It is so convenient, and I don’t have to worry about blocking off time in multiple places because of the way it syncs.

• Website integration.
• E-mail reminders.
• Two-way calendar sync.
• Tracking client inquiries.

• I think it has played a huge role in our ROI as online scheduling is an expected feature in this day and age.
• Being included with Squarespace has been super helpful.
• It has taken a lot of the middleman busy work of scheduling, reminding, canceling, rescheduling, etc.
• It has kept our business model up with the times.

I use Acuity Scheduling, a Squarespace company, to allow prospects, clients, and colleagues to schedule appointments with me without the back and forth of both of us searching our calendars for openings. It allows me to create different types of appointments with different amounts of time set aside for them, to charge for some appointments and not for others, to display certain types of appointment publicly and others only by sending someone a link to it. In other words, it's extremely flexible. I can also upgrade for a month if I need to bring on other coaches for a special event and allow them to be scheduled in their own time zone and downgrade again when it's just me.

• Integration with Zoom and Google Calendar (they also integrate with iCal and Outlook
• Affordable
• Highly flexible

• The ability to rapidly respond to my previous scheduling app dropping my account
• The ability to supply an easy URL when speaking to people about making an appointment
• My previous app was free
