Praise for our SOAP Note Software
I’ve been using Go Reminders for my massage business. Nothing is more annoying than remembering to send reminders to clients so they don’t miss their appointments. Go Reminders is easy to use and has a clean feel and look. A couple things that I like are the appointments go into my Google calendar, I also like that you can edit your reminder message template. Lots of other services do not let you edit.
They always seem to be working on things to make your life easier.
I provide virtual wellness coaching and education services to individuals and families around the world so that they can experience a fuller, healthier life today. Of the 30 online schedulers I have used, GoReminders is the most efficient, easy to use, and reliable. Your recurring appointment feature is top notch and saves my life. We immediately prepaid for a year of GoReminders and got the discount! You may be the winner of the 7 year calendar app search.
I manage donor recruitment for a small community blood bank in northern California. I want to thank you for providing an option for small and non-profit organizations without a huge investment. It’s often difficult to find a balance between 90% functional freeware and an investment that I’d have to lay someone off to afford. GoReminders seems like a great balance.
