User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the WordPress Booking Calendar plugin for its extensive features, flexibility, and ease of use. They find it highly configurable, fitting a range of needs from basic availability calendars to complex booking systems. Many praise the responsive and effective customer support, which greatly enhances the user experience. The plugin is often recommended for its rich functionality even in the free version, with paid versions offering additional useful features. However, some drawbacks include difficulties with sync options, especially with external calendars like iCal, and a complex interface that can be overwhelming initially. Improving documentation and user interface could improve usability further. Despite these issues, users generally report high satisfaction.

I could not find what I needed help with in the documentation so emailed the Support. A response was delivered within 3 minutes with screenshots of how to do what I wanted and further support given over several emails. This made the difference between going to find an alternative plugin. Thank you very much for excellent service.

It’s ok. Very versatile however lacks important features such as 2 way synchronization with Google/Microsoft calendars. The advertised “sync” functionality is basically just an import export facility which can be semi automated through CRON, so the plugin does not actually utilize Google or Microsoft APIs for proper calendar synchronization. Extremely complicated and laborious to configure and tailor to each use case. The documentation is severely lacking and unfortunately communication with support is poor because English is not their first language. The rendering of calendar & booking forms looks like it was designed in the mid 1990s, so not half as pretty as other alternate plugins and it has poor responsiveness to screen sizes. Very little in terms of customization here. Also seems to be a lot more expensive than equivalent plugins & only offers updates for 6months. This plugin is also full of typos and spelling mistakes.
