No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    I tried a few different plugins to set up a specialized community for employee/client appointments with an employee profile and booking system, but all of the ones I tried were very limited, I then found the VikApointments plugin which has the depth of capability and forward thinking that I needed, now the website has all the functionality I want and I am also blown away by the friendly helpful and professional support the team gave me who also act and react in a time-friendly manner. Thankyou and keep up the good work!

    As most E4J extensions, this extension is very complete and made easy to use. The documentation is very complete as well. You can try the demo sites to get an idea of its front end and back end cool features !

    Still in testing phase so we’ll see how it works once our site launches, but so far during user testing, it seems to cover a wide range of customization needs with some neat features for complex service booking. We had some challenge with the stripe payment plugin and they issued a fix within 24 hours which is greatly appreciated. This topic was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by aloeewellness.

    We searched for a lot of different plugins for a reservation/billing system that was reasonable and found VIK Appointments. We have a pest control company and was essentially trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. VIK is affordable and easy to use. And most importantly, can do some customization to it. But, and this is what sets Vik apart, the developer, Matteo. We needed to customize the invoice, essentially had to write it from scratch to meet what we had to put on it. Any guidance we needed to where to pull the info out of the db, Matteo did not hesitate to let us know the code block to use. He has been MORE than gracious and accommodating with our requests. I wholeheartedly recommend this plugin! Michael B. Morell, CISSP #431307

    Recently I bought VikAppointments and this programme works very nice so far, stll installing it though. Before I installed VikBooking which is running now for a few years and it works very well for us too. Installing that plugin was a big job since for me that was new but with the manuals they have online you get far and whenever you get stock the helpdesk is really vey helpful, even in the weekends with less staf available they do there best to help you out. VikAppointments is easier because of the experience I already have with VikBooking an because the plugin is more simple. We are very happy with these two plugins and I highly recommend them both! Thank you for a great service! Irma This topic was modified 4 years, 8 months ago by asharumamonines.

    Avevo qualche hanno fa acquistato VikBooking per Joomla, ora ho acquistato VikAppointments per WordPress… che dire, prodotti eccellenti! Non solo per il funzionamento ma anche per la logica con cui sono scritti, per non parlare poi della possibilità di fare l’override del plugin. Infine una menzione per il supporto rapido e gentile e sopratutto stra-disponibile (più del dovuto). Complimenti e consigliatissimo!
