kiwilaunch Reviews

Almost all or all therapy and life coaching platforms support 1) self scheduling, 2) comprehensive intake forms, 3) esigned paperwork, and 4) client portals. I can do workarounds for a few of these, but I found it odd that self scheduling, a key feature on competitors' platforms, is not only missing, but will not be considered in future.

I also found it odd that the founder will not consider a WYSIWYG or rich text editor for confirmation and reminder emails, which was the dealbreaker for me.

See, kiwilaunch can't support intake forms that have conditional logic (and I have my reasons for needing this). That is fine, I can direct the client elsewhere to fill out. They also can't support esigned documents and again, that's okay since I can do the same redirecting. But what I am not going to do, is send the client a block of plain text wedged at the top of a confirmation email that looks like a run on sentence because I need to give instructions as to where to go because certain features are not available. It not only looks unprofessional, but limits accessibility. Some people may be fine with being on the phone to provide information but some will need clear and styled written emails to know what is going to happen next.

It's a shame since there is a lot of great stuff here. I just don't think its a competitor in the life coaching/therapy space. Or maybe that's just me and my business. I can see the value of the platform for other business types though, and for people who don't mind doing the manual work!

Also wanted to note that the response time is... uneven. It can take 2 hours or 2 days. Not a huge issue, but I wish it was more clear. The chat says it will take a "few hours" and yet 2 out of the 4 times I messaged, that wasn't the case.

This has been perfect for my little yoga business! My customers love the ease of searching for my upcoming classes, the payments are easy, the dashboard and analytics is easy to understand, and the look and feel is really clean. 10/10!

Not ready. Lacking the most basic, common sense function like duplicate/copy paste.
Imagine you have a range of date, say 22 dates, three times that day. You have to create EVERY SINGLE ONE.

Duplicate is basic.

I am not impressed or happy. I am leaving appsumo, a platform not worth spending money on, and I wanted to finish my credit on here. I thought my last purchase was this. But no.
Now I have to refund and still have credit on appsumo. Ugh.

As furious as I am with lacking in accountability appsumo, I'm still not going to keep a software that I foresee will frustrated me.
Two stars: one for simplicity. One for good service.
Not impressed. But thanks. Refunding.

This deal is awesome. For the value it offers, you cant sleep on it. Awesome service, simple to setup and understand, straightforward and just wonderful overall. I would have loved the option to move a few pieces around on the booking page tho. Still it is a solid 5 taco deal.

Yup, we dig this software!!

So many great features and easy to use. I don't review much. But this time I had to!

Boom! Do it!
