Review

Hear from studios using Acuity

"Limiting Squarespace Integration and Confusing Scheduling Options—Not Worth the Added Cost. This, together with the high cost of the additional subscription led me to switch to another provider."

"Don't recommend if you plan to grow. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. NO PHONE SUPPORT. Not ideal for larger companies who want to do subscription memberships, it's very limiting and messy. They only do POS with Square or Stripe which have super high CC processing fees."

Capterra

"Acuity App on iOS doesn't work. Hasn't worked for 6 months. Help desk said they are aware of the issue but have not provided any timeline when it will be fixed. I depend on the app during our busy season."
