    "I've been using Acuity for about 4 years and it's been good — easy to set up and integrates with my site.",

    "Customer support is insanely fast if I have questions or need help; the software is rock solid.",
    "I've been very happy with Acuity, as have my clients — great features and user-friendly at a reasonable price.",
    "It lets clients pay deposits on booking which is very handy for my business.",
    "Works pretty good overall, but it's missing a major function I've needed for years.",
    "Acuity saved me time — clients can self-schedule and the reminders are useful.",
    "I've been grandfathered into a very good price; overall it's reliable and meets our needs.",
    "Good for solo practitioners and small studios; integrates with calendars and payment processors.",
    "Some users find it overpriced or lacking advanced features for complex scheduling workflows."
