TIMIFY
TIMIFY combines online appointment booking with resource scheduling, team planning, and customer management. Customers can book, cancel, or reschedule appointments, including individual and group visits. When a service is booked, the platform can reserve required employees, rooms, and equipment. It supports two-way calendar sync and lists integrations with Google and Outlook calendars, Stripe or PayPal, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Zapier, and Intercom. The Developer Platform provides a REST API for custom apps and data synchronization with other IT infrastructure. Email booking reminders are included in Premium; SMS reminders cost extra. TIMIFY says customer data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES-256, with two daily backups. It states that it is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, and lists data regions in Frankfurt, Sao Paulo, and Singapore. The Classic plan is free; the Basic Plan costs €9 a month, billed annually, for up to one resource. Licenses are priced by location and resource count, with one license required per company location or branch.
