Post by: Nathanael Jones on March 17, 2013, 01:55:42 pm: I've looked into a LOT of these booking scripts,... many aren't suitable for mobile businesses that only want to accept bookings from certain area's on certain days, and the few that are can be very limited in the important features like social integration - - after trialing about 30 different systems I personally chose www.bookeo.com.

There is a monthly fee for using it,.. but its worth every penny IMO,.. especially when it comes to getting customers to "Share" their booking with their Facebook friends (You can offer a small discount to those that share if you want) which can open up a whole new bunch of customers that wouldn't have considered using your services previously.

€10.95 a month

The only downside is that the bookeo widget isn't great on small phones screens (Older phones) - Its supposed to be updated this month, but I'll believe it when I see it!

That site is going to disappear for a few hours - I just got a new reseller hosting deal & I'm transferring everything over at the moment!

The new hosting deal means that I'll be able to offer some new "pay monthly" website products and hosting deals that a lot of ppl have been asking for recently. ;)
