Product Features:
Compared to Shore.com, Bookafy has a deeper product level to support the many nuances of appointment scheduling for your organization. Bookafy has built complex logic within the app to make the customer booking experience easily integrate with your needs. Calendar syncing is at the heart of the product. We believe stable and robust 2-way sync will allow each staff member to use their primary calendar the same way they have been while adding Bookafy as a customer-facing application to be added to your website, email signatures, social media buttons and more. Our 2-way calendar sync works with Outlook, Exchange, iCloud, Google Cal and external ICS calendar feeds. Bookafy also has event scheduling, Multi-User booking (Group interviews, Salesperson/Manager meetings with clients), classes, payments, skill-based routing, time zone conversion and much much more.
Design and User Interface:
Bookafy has been awarded “Best User Interface” for the customer facing booking experience. Comared to Shore.com, Bookafy’s design is simple, elegant and very intuitive for the customer. Bookafy was also built to work great on mobile devices, where 70% of our appointments are booked.

Unlike Shore.com, Bookafy offers a really fantastic customer service model. All of Bookafy’s features are covered in the FAQ pages with video and instructions… But Bookafy also offers customers the ability to schedule 1 on 1 web calls to share screens and walk through any customer questions.
