Strategic Projects Manager - Cambridgeshire County Council
"I was truly impressed with the level of support that we received from BookingLive. We were allocated our own Project Manager to support us through the initial implementation phase. He was always available and highly responsive, nothing was ever too much trouble and the few problems we did experience were quickly resolved. After the first month, we were directed towards BookingLive’s helpdesk to resolve issues and have continued to receive the same high level of support."
★★★★★
Commercial Manager - Stockton-on-Tees Council
"Excellent from start to finish. We selected BookingLive.com after reviewing the majority of the web UK based ticketing software providers. They stood out amongst the rest and were able to simply and easily configure their solution to the needs of our businesses AirTrail and GoClimb. They are professional, provide excellent service and I would definitely recommend them."
★★★★★
Systems Development & Business Support Officer - East Lothian Council
"We use the booking app for numerous activities and services within the local authority. This booking app has offered a service we previously have been unable to offer to our customers and we have taken a huge volume of online bookings and additional revenue."
★★★★★
Senior Instructor & Administrator - Wokingham Borough Council
"Since we adopted BookingLive in 2017 to replace our previous booking system we've been very satisfied. The software works very well and I have nothing but praise for the support team when speaking with them. The project was delivered on time and budget and has proven to be a cost saving exercise and a considerable saving on our previous booking fees. I'd thoroughly recommend using the scheduling software. It's the right price, the right product and is like Ronseal - it does exactly what it says on the tin."
★★★★★
Senior Operations - Hampshire County Council
"The majority of our bookings are now made by customers in the evening, something which wouldn't have been possible if we hadn't engaged with BookingLive and launched their scheduling software. We have now used the booking app for the activity centre and elsewhere in the Council for making appointment bookings such as green spaces and BBQ pitches."
★★★★★
Head of Central Government Sales - Insight
"The way all booking apps should be done. If you can think of a scheduling or resourcing process you have internally that is currently managed by a person using a spreadsheet or any other form of static record that needs to be manually update and therefore isn't a real-time appointment booking system you need to engage BookingLive to demonstrate the way booking apps should be done."
★★★★★
ICT Business Manager - Guildford Borough Council
"BookingLive have been great from the start - our appointment and scheduling system went live on time and worked immediately. The team have understood that some of our needs are slightly different to their other clients and have configured our booking system app accordingly"
★★★★★
Head of Product, Digital - Barnet Council
"We think it's a good system for a reasonable price. The support network is much more streamlined. We are interested in helping to push the booking app across the borough as we think other services here could really benefit from it."
★★★★★
Business Development Manager - Nottinghamshire County Council
"We're happy with the day-to-day functioning of BookingLive. Our website is great and stable, if there ever are any problems they get rectified quickly - communication has definitely improved. The booking app has loads of great features. As well as being extremely powerful I think the admin system looks good. Although this isn’t important in terms of how the system runs, it’s important to me to have a system which looks nice. It’s very user friendly.”

The benefits of implementing our appointment scheduling software for managing bookings are vast. In a recent digital transformation report the BookingLive customer Charnwood Borough Council saw substantial benefits and cost savings for internal departments and the access to services for the local constituents they serve.
Charnwood Borough Council’s digital transformation report showed 85% of citizens were satisfied or very satisfied with the new BookingLive Solutions – no one was dissatisfied. 91% of those that answered were satisfied or very satisfied with the ease of booking. 88% rated the service good and above. Considering the needs of all citizens, the BookingLive solutions focus on accessibility is not an afterthought, but a core principle of our development process that is designed from ideation through to delivery.
After Charnwood Borough Council adopted our software solution, they saw amazing results. For example, one customer booked 28 different activities with the council in one transaction. This transaction took 30 minutes and was made out of standard office hours. This order would have previously taken one officer the majority of the day and several contacts with the customer. We continue to help local authorities and governments achieve success.
