⭐ FluentBooking Review by Experts


👦 Jack Arturo, Founder of WPFusion
There are a couple of booking solutions for WordPress but they tend to be complicated, buggy, or require WooCommerce. FluentBooking is the first plugin I’ve used that can seriously compete with cloud solutions like Calendly (even in the first release! 🤩) It was easy to set up and I was able to accept new appointments with just a few clicks. Thanks WPManageNinja! 🧡

👨 Augustine Mak – Entrepreneur/Educator / funnelstoincome.com
Finally, a fantastic and easy way to create bookings in WordPress. Another great opportunity for me to make even more money as an entrepreneur. It’s very easy to use and integrates seamlessly with Fluent Forms for creating advanced booking forms and FluentCRM for email automation. What a game-changer, I highly recommend FluentBooking.

👨 Davinder Singh Kainth, Founder, The WP Weekly
It is a simple yet powerful solution to get going with online bookings and appointments on a WordPress website. Web agencies should find this useful for their own use and on their client websites. If full control and ownership of data on the WordPress platform is your thing and you are looking to set up an efficient online booking system, FluentBooking solution should feature high on your list.

👨 Leo Koo, Agency Owner
FluentBooking is a solid booking form plugin that allows you to receive paid and free bookings quickly. As it comes from WPManageNinja, I thoroughly recommend the plugin as it will grow in features with time. The plugin is solid and ready for clients needing a booking form feature. Personally, I can’t wait to see what’s in store for FluentBooking. Don’t miss out on FluentBooking. Grab yourself a license today 😊

👦 David Risley, Founder, Blog Marketing Academy
Happy to see FluentBooking come out. While it’ll work standalone, combining it with FluentCRM and Fluent Forms makes a perfect trifecta for so many online businesses. I swear, before too long, I’ll be using almost all Fluent tools. 🙂

👦 Christopher Hughes, Founder, Simply Cruises
They’ve done it again! The Fluent team have yet again delivered what is to be a very promising new WP plugin. Successfully taking the ease of taking bookings via the web, but putting it firmly under your control on your own website without expensive SaaS fees. These guys know exactly what their customers want and deliver time and time again. A++
