Biggest opportunity: Swap “appointment” and “reservation” for “booking form” and “bookings”. “appointment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “booking form” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “reservation” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “bookings” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.8%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 1.3M lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 943 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 38 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “appointment” and “reservation” for “booking form” and “bookings”. “appointment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “booking form” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “reservation” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “bookings” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “reservation”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Плагин отличный.Хотелось бы ещё какое-то минимальное js API по основным методам и событиям
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ paschal18042.6y ago
This is probably a good booking plugin but I can’t use it because it doesn’t support my currency. The developer listed all the countries in the world but a few currencies. Why would I, a Nigerian, quote a service to my Nigerian clients in any other currency but Naira? Makes no sense. And it’s an easy update to list all the currencies in the world.

外部サイトへ移管させる予約システムは論外として、自己サイト内に埋め込める予約システム(WordPressプラグイン)の中では国内でこれ以外に選択肢は無いと思われる。素人にはとっつきにくいかもしれないが自由度の高さが半端ない。

Despite spending half my day trying to make this plugin work, I have given up. Their is no documentation to guide you. The calendar continually does not allow for any appointmnets This topic was modified 4 years, 2 months ago by inderpod.

Was looking for scheduling plugin to integrate for my site and remove an extra contact step with customer. This did the trick. Even the basic plan is generously powerful and the whole thing is intuitive to set up.

El mejor plugin que he encontrado para crear un sistema de turnos optimo. 100% recomendable

I’ve tried others and this is by far the best! Easy to setup and customize to your liking. The subscription process takes time to load you into the system (about 30 mins) and you can’t register your subscription until it finishes. After that all good!

In my opinion, and after having tested a lot of similar plugins, this is by far the best one. 1- works well 2- easy to set up 3- I did not detect any incompatibility with the latest versions of wordpress and with various themes used. USE: Tested for a law firm with some diferent services. Perfect! A request: Please allow the services to select specific working hours, in the free version 🙂
