## Reviews

### "The Square - for all your needs." — 4.0/5

> **Taylor** | *January 16, 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Square appointments has everything in one for what is needed to run a business. It's also accessible anywhere which is very convenient.
> 
> **Cons**: The customization within an appointment is lacking.
> 
> Sometimes the application glitches and needs a reboot so can be slow starting up. Though once working, I experience a positive outcome and have no complaints.

### "Good booking app" — 5.0/5

> **Delauréanne** | *November 4, 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Square appointment is so easy to use and saves me so much time and helps me organise my time efficiently
> 
> **Cons**: The thing that bugs me most is not having the same tools on the app and on the online version, and the calendar view
> 
> I love using the appointments app; I have been using the Square Payment for over 3 years and just recently got into the appointments app, and it is very useful

-----

### "Great start but needs improvement" — 3.0/5

> **Veronica** | *May 29, 2025* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked how easy it was to use and set up - it also looks very chic looking too for the client in the check out moment
> 
> **Cons**: AI assistant lost us lots of clients - as well as the charge to credit card on file did not work for us for some reason. We also colour coded all our different appointments yet that didnt work
> 
> Over all it got the job done however there are many areas to be fixed, and individual employees reports need to be available

### "Square is the best online booking system\!" — 5.0/5

> **Ashley** | *March 19, 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Square makes my business run so smoothly. Clients use the online booking with no issues, including the rescheduling option. This saves me so much time\! The appointment reminder texts/emails are also a huge plus to prevent no shows.
> 
> **Cons**: There is nothing that I don’t like with Square. They have clearly put a lot into this app and have made it very user friendly for all different users.
> 
> I rave about Square to anyone needing to find a great booking system. It really is an all in one - including the option to send out emails to clients who subscribe to that option. I will never use another system for my business\!
