Does Booker Care About it’s Customers?

Does Booker Care About it’s Customers? The simple and troubling answer to that opening question is, “I don’t know.” Unlike most of my posts here on Booker Problems that are factual articles about the bugs and quirks of the software platform , or just ways to make it better, this piece is all about my […]

For Some Unknown Reason Booker is Allowing Double Booking Chaos

On Saturday, 1-11-20, I needed to add a client to my schedule. Since I was out of my office, I grabbed my iOS device and added the appointment using the Booker app. After selecting the client and service type, I clicked the “Book Appointment” button to save the changes.

On one hand, it’s great to have so many choices, but with these choices comes layers and layers of complexity. In the five years I’ve been using Booker and with […]

Lions and Tigers and Random Errors, Oh My!

It is really interesting to me just how many Booker bugs, errors, and problems I have learned to live with.
