Amelia Booking Plugin For WordPress - TOP 4 Features

Hi Amilia

Your can’t 'charge a 10% cancellation fee for any no-shows plus you can’t charge deposit from customers

Hi,
I offer online courses and I need a calendar where the customer could pick a start date for the course. The course usually is open for 10 people and it's happen every 2 weeks or so. Could I implement this with Amelia? There is no need for time slots, the customer need to pick only the start date and this date should be available for 10 people in total. Is that possible with Amelia? If not, could you please suggest another plugin?

A very good content!

Great video! I've always believed in the power of experience and reliability when it comes to WordPress plugins. I would always pick a well-established one like the tried-and-true plugin you've showcased here. It's like choosing a seasoned pro over a rookie – you know it's been battle-tested and has a track record of delivering

Thank you for the detailed review. A right combination of theme/page builder, booking plugin and a skillful website owner can result in beautiful, functional booking websites with smooth UX.

Does it have front-end access? I need my users to be able to set up their own booking form.

Amelia is a extra plugin, from great developers team !!

FluentBooking is a cleaner and more open, if you ask me. Still lacks some features since it is so new, but Amelia is just a little overly complex. And it is more closed by nature. And the integrations between Fluent tools if you use stuff like FluentCRM and Fluent Forms cannot be beat.

Unfortunately Amelia doesn't send invoices which is must have this days 😢

There are a mega more possibilities especially when combined with uncanny automator! The most important thing for mail is the SMTP. If you don't congruate this, mails usually don't arrive. Also the database must be in good order. There are many things you have to configure in advance or the website will be slow. If you have everything in place, it is a great tool!

I love Amelia ❤ but if you need contact support is disaster. Half of those people don't speak English. Be aware

Wow thank you for the video !

Using Amelia for events is not very useful since it doesn't create separate links for each event that can be easily shared on social media.

Thanks for this Paul.
Personally, I have tried out LatePoint and Bookly. LatePoint is not for me as payment gateway's are mostly paid add ons. Bookly is better in that regard.
They are all a pain in setting up calendar integration though (Including Amelia). Would be nice to see a simpler way.
Amelia does seem to have clearer documentation though.
Do you have a preferred booking solution for hotels, or is another tutorial on the way?

Is it free?

I have been using Amelia for a while now but I am frustrated with the plugin for so many reasons. Often I'm stuck at a dead end and support is not helpful.
Example: Google calendar Synchronisation doesn't work with multiple calendars (e.g. If you have private calendar and business calendar, only one can be used to determine availability and avoid double booking).
FluentBooking is out for two weeks and has that feature.
Amelia says they haven't planned to add that in the next 6 months.
Mind blown
