It's been fantastic support wise

Once we decided to take the leap, we’ve never looked back. It was a great transition. I couldn’t imagine another booking provider offering similar service.

The support has been unparalleled

Now Book It has vastly improved service at O'Leary Walker Wines and has been such a fantastic resource across our business.

My favourite part is the simplicity

My favourite part of the booking system is the simplicity of it, so user-friendly, easy to use and anyone can operate, even our older, less tech savvy staff mention how much they love it!

Switching from SevenRooms was seamless

Thank you so much for checking in and providing all these solutions! I appreciate the support. You guys have made the migration smooth and painless. Customer Service has been excellent, and we don't have to talk to randomly assigned CS personnel based in a far-away city who provide generic responses. Thank you, team!

Best move we could have made

It took us a little while to move from ResDiary & The Fork, but I must say, it was the best move we could have made.

Easiest transition ever

Thank you! It's the easiest transition ever. Thanks for being amazing and ALWAYS contactable for any help or questions.
