Zenbooker

Online appointment & booking for service businesses

About Zenbooker

Zenbooker is an online appointment booking and scheduling tool for home service businesses with availability tracking, payment processing, and website booking integration. By providing the tools to create an online booking platform, manage availability, assign tasks to employees, and process credit card payments, Zenbooker facilitates client self-service for booking home services.

To help businesses create a customizable booking experience designed for their home service needs, Zenbooker provides tools such as a custom booking website builder and custom widgets that can be embedded onto existing business websites. From the booking website, clients can view availability, see real-time price quotes for their selected services, and select their location from an intelligent predictive search tool. Businesses can set up service zones using a geographic map tool to define area limits for bookings so that customers are unable book services outside of a specific perimeter.

Once bookings are made, administrators can assign jobs to team members based on skills and availability, with the calendar tool showing each team member's upcoming jobs. Employees can access their schedule using their individual staff login and view the location using Google Maps.

The Zenbooker app sends confirmations and reminders to customers via SMS and employees can inform customers of their ETA with an ‘on my way’ text message. Profiles are generated for each customer which include information such as appointment history, job history, and contact information. To facilitate online payment, Zenbooker integrates with Stripe for credit card processing.


Key benefits of Zenbooker

  • Assign service jobs to employees once confirmed with the calendar management tool where users can view the whole team’s schedule including vacations and upcoming jobs.

  • Create customized booking widgets which can be embedded into the business website so that clients can view availability and book an appointment directly from the website.

  • Process credit card payments through integration with Stripe and allow customers to pay directly from the booking page or widget.

  • Manage pricing and give customers a real-time quote when booking based on their selected services or clients can send quote requests which can be managed within Zenbooker.

  • Send clients SMS appointment reminders ahead of their service and allow employees to send ETA messages when they are on their way to the appointment.

    Reviewed on 2022-03-01

    Pros

    Very user friendly, appealing design, pretty much everything is modifiable and of course that it is very inexpensive.

    Cons

    The responses from the customer support was slow in the beginning but the response time is much faster now.

    100/10 I recommend for every business on the same field

    Pros

    So much features on Zenbooker , Easy to use, user friendly, my clients book recurring cleaning in a few minutes in a safe way. their support is fast and very helpful replied to my question within 2 minutes time.I suggest this for every cleaning company small or big , this software will grow your business and build trust within your clients.

    Cons

    After I tried a lot of booking software like Booknetic, Latepoint, Housecall Pro, Simplybook.itNone of them have this UI / UX None of them have so many options and customisation on your appointments.The recurring system that they have is absolutely perfect it add endless recurring appointments until the customer cancel it or until you as admin stop it. This help my business have continued payments from customers and have their home cleaned more often.I suggest this hidden gem software to any cleaning business owner.

    Beautiful booking software, but lacks customer support and features

    Despite having great initial features, a beautiful booking form and simple functionality for customers, they have unresponsive support, no updates on any future software changes and appears that the team went MIA on the software (there has been no news, blog posts or even responses). Overall, if you're in business and have customers, I don't recommend until they fix their lack of support and professionalism. Otherwise, you'll be taking a risk on a software that could end tomorrow.

    Pros

    This software is great out of the box. The UI/UX is clean, easy to use and can be integrated on any website. You can customize the form to your liking, including any services your business offers and add-ons. It can lead to higher-conversions as the booking software is simple and elegant, unlike competitors. The initial features are are a must for any contract business, automatic follow-ups (to your employees and customers who book), customer CRM w/ notes, ability to add and restrict zip codes (which is great), uses Stripes as a payment processor- allowing you to accept all major credit cards and real-time pricing.

    Cons

    The biggest issue with the software is the lack of customer support and development of more advanced feature. When asking questions to their customer support, they are unresponsive to any questions. It's as if they abandoned the software and went MIA (Missing In Action). The way Zenbooker handles customer support is unprofessional for a booking software, especially when business owners are reliant on your software to keep their business afloat. As of 02/21, I still have received a customer support reply and it has been over a week.

    The other issue is, they don't have any API integrations; so you cannot use any of your popular payrolls without headache or CRM for advanced management. There is no team management (as of yet) and has been no news on any new software to come. You're basically left with their software out-of-the-box features and that's it. The date of writing this review (02/2021), the last software update was 8-months ago.

    Overall, I chose this software because it literally did everything I needed it to (apart from accounts integration) fantastic booking syste, great field sales management and even managed payment and reviews. All this is taken away by an incredibly slow server which makes it all a little useless.

    Pros

    This is the only product I have found for field sales that bring in the front end booking system and enables me to fully automate the entire process from booking a customer on the site to managing the field sales process. The build options are very flexible and links up to the website well. There is some limited tracking analytics and I'm able to finish the booking by going to an external confirmation page on my website which enables me to use google tracking for better conversion tracking.

    Cons

    The biggest problem with this product is the speed. The site is so slow that I think it is actually causing customers to leave and will likely make all the great things this product offers useless. Also, the mobile access whilst it has great features the combined fact that it is just a webpage and not an app, means that it constantly needs to reload which takes forever because the server is so slow.

    Glad I found Zenbooker!

    Reviewed on 2021-04-06

    Pros

    Zenbooker is thoughtfully designed with a great-looking UI. It's very easy to setup and use. The developer has been impressively responsive to my feedback and has implemented several features I've requested over the past few months. Pricing is flat-rate and affordable (no paying per user or paying extra for certain features).

    Cons

    It's load times need to be improved. Sometimes its slow to the point that our end users think it's not working. Hoping for a solution to this soon.

    Reasons for Switching to Zenbooker

    I tried over 10 different booking platforms, and Zenbooker has the best front-end user experience out of anything I tested. Many other platforms treat online booking as an afterthought, whereas Zenbooker places emphasis on the importance of a clean, thoughtful, and highly customizable booking solution from the very beginning.
