What do you like best about HelmBot?

For the past few months, we've implemented Helmbot at Uplift Float Centre, and it has truly revolutionized our operations! Our customers have provided exceptional feedback, highlighting its user-friendly booking process. This has led to a noticeable decrease in the volume of phone calls we receive from customers seeking assistance compared to our previous software.

The onboarding and setup with Helmbot went seamlessly, thanks to their excellent support.

As we continue to expand our business, we're thrilled to know that Helmbot will remain adaptable and capable of meeting all our future requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

There's very little we could fault with Helmbot, however, we would love to see more customisation on the customer-facing booking system, It's nice enough, but some more styling options would be great.

We would also love to have the ability to style the automated emails, add our logo and some colours etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

When it came to finding the right booking system, one of the most common issues we found was the lack of ability to build custom packages and discounts that match the way we wanted to run our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HelmBot?

We enjoy how this is tailored to a float center. The extra tools to help with the behind the scenes things such as employee scheduling, room measurement tracking, etc is phenomenal. Customer service is tremendously prompt and efficient and is open to ideas and suggestions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

The price. It's still a crazy value, but like any business owner, wish it was a bit cheaper. Instead of a flat fee per "room", I'd like to see it tiered a little less for each indivudual room they bill for. Mind you, this is just me trying to save as much $$$ as possilbe, and it's worth what they charge regardless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Employee scheduling, time clock entries, booking guests, online booking and scheduling. This is the "one program does it all" type of application. It also integrates nicely with our mailing list, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HelmBot?

Their customer service team is excellent and my customers have an easy time booking appointments online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

Needs better reporting tools (especially for products) and wish it had more AI functionality that could help me fill my slower times and days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HelmBot:

Customer service is excellent and they go above and beyond.

If you have multiple services you offer, Helmbot allows your customers to view all of them in one screen and makes it easy for them to book additional services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

We didn't realize we were losing customers when we had MindBody Software. Customers would get frustrated and stop the booking process.

Now customers have an easy time booking and seeing all of our available services that our cross-selling services has increased a lot! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HelmBot?

Incredibly intuitive to use. The team is constantly improving and adding new features. They're quick to respond to feedback and questions, and take a collaborative approach in solving issues. Made for float centers, by a team who knows float centers. I have no doubt they will crush it as Helm branches out into related wellness industries as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

There are a few features I'd love to see added for streamlining marketing and other processes in the future, but I'm sure we'll get there! The Helm team is constantly improving things! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HelmBot:

Schedule a tour! You'll love it at first sight! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Booing software is crucial to an appointment-based business. The interface is intuitive and allows us to provide excellent service to our customers, without slowing us down. The reporting is great, and there are a myriad of features that we utilize that you can't find anywhere else (internal reference guide, logbook, maintenance log, task generators). Other booking software we've used in the past has been clunky and does not offer any of these additional features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HelmBot?

The helpful little yellow question marks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

Organizing my GUIDE topics and entries is not an intuitive process leaving my Guidebook a jumbled mess. I would love a way to export the topics and rearrange them in a logical order before bringing them back into HelmBot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

TASKS. It is so nice to have a place to note one time or reoccurring jobs we need to get done. Being able to assign these tasks to individuals or simply place on the job board for anyone to accomplish is amazing, not to mention the scheduling. Maybe this is a one time need or something that needs done every other Tuesday, no problem, that's doable! I am able to quickly jot down some notes about how the task needs to be accomplished, this is handy and saves time when you are not having to track someone down and verbally guide them step by step. The Team now has a chance to process the information and ask questions as needed giving us both room to grow and develope. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing that I like the most about HelmBot is that it is continuously improving. Anytime I've submitted a question, needed help, or had a feature idea, the team is always quick to respond and provide solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

There's very little that I dislike about Helmbot because improvements constantly happen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HelmBot:

You won't be disappointed, Helmbot does everything you need it to, and if they don't offer a feature, it's because they're working on it for the next update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helmbot has helped me to streamline processes at both of our spas. We use the (searchable!) Guide to document all procedures and assist with training new employees. We use the Projects to manage everything from daily operations and our weekly deep clean to marketing and administrative procedures. HelmBot's automations and task generators keep everything moving and helps me feel confident that nothing is slipping though the cracks! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HelmBot?

HelmBot is easy to use, and easy to learn how to use. Once I started using it, it became indispensible. It can do an enormous number of things, from scheduling and task management to exporting sales reports. And the support staff are fantastic; they are always quick to respond to questions and provide help. They are also constantly adding new functions and upgrades.

Our customers also use the helm and we have not gotten one complaint about it being difficult to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HelmBot?

I don't dislike anything about HelmBot. I find HelmBot incredibly useful, but I feel like there are functions I don't even know about, so some beginning and advanced tutorial videos would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HelmBot solving and how is that benefiting you?

HelmBot keeps me organized and on track when there is way too much stuff to keep track of. It combines scheduling, point of sales, record keeping, task management, messaging, inventory, customer feedback, auto-emailing, and much more. I use it to run a float tank center but I feel like HelmBot could be helpful for running almost any type of business or organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
