"Streamlined Customer Interactions, A Potentially Confusing Wait Time Display"
What do you like best about Waitwhile?

I appreciate how Waitwhile makes it easier to track customer orders and facilitates communication. I use it to sign in customers, having their name, phone number, and order number readily available, which saves me from manually typing this information and helps in efficiently tracking wait times. One of my favorite features is the ability to text customers directly, particularly since we don't have parking at our location, and we ask customers to wait in their cars to avoid tickets. This texting feature makes it significantly more convenient for our customers, as they can come and grab their orders promptly when notified. I also found the initial setup of Waitwhile to be very easy, which is a huge plus. The integration with Centiro is smooth and beneficial in managing operations. Based on these features and overall experience, I am extremely likely to recommend Waitwhile, rating it a 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

Customers find it confusing when there are wait times displayed on the screen. They often misunderstand it as the time when their order will be ready, but it's actually the time until we call them up to check their ID. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Queue Management with Room for Improvement"
What do you like best about Waitwhile?

I find the statistics feature in Waitwhile incredibly beneficial as it provides insights into how long each student has to wait. This functionality allows us to manage our time effectively, especially during our shifts, by assessing how many students we can assist and determining when additional help may be required. Additionally, the chat function is valuable as it enables us to communicate directly with students, informing them when we will be available to assist them. The initial setup of Waitwhile was very easy, which streamlined its adoption into our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

I find the process of opening and closing the queue in Waitwhile to be cumbersome. The function is not easily accessible, requiring me a long time to locate it initially. Additionally, I often have to refresh the page to confirm whether the queue is open or closed, which is inconvenient. There have also been instances where the queue was closed by mistake, suggesting that the interface could be more intuitive and clearer in this aspect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Arrival Management for School Events"
What do you like best about Waitwhile?

It allows our school staff to easily manage parent arrivals during our Open Morning events and ensure a member of staff meets them promptly, according to their queue position on the waitlist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

Perhaps in the future. Waitwhile could offer more granular permissions for different user groups. For example, some of our student tour guides could then access WaitWhile without viewing confidential family contact details and manage the family tour queue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive UI, Effortless Appointment Management"
What do you like best about Waitwhile?

I find Waitwhile incredibly easy to use with an intuitive user interface. As a tool for our day-to-day operations, I've encountered zero issues. I particularly appreciate the drag and drop feature and the columned setup, which makes it easy to view different stages of the appointment process. It's very easy to edit and create submissions. The initial setup was super easy, and I managed without any tutorials, though it's comforting to know they're available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

It may be helpful to receive notifications for upcoming appointments 10 or 15 min prior to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Customization, Perfect for Event Management"
What do you like best about Waitwhile?

I appreciate Waitwhile for providing robust capabilities and endless customization options, which were crucial for our trade show event. The ability to customize workflows, message automations, form questions, schedules, and waitlist settings was particularly helpful. It allowed us to build an ideal setup that made our event possible and completely turnkey. The platform is feature-rich, offering flexibility for various applications, which significantly enhanced our ability to manage the registration and communication processes for event attendees effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

While the initial setup of Waitwhile was straightforward for basic configurations, customizing the platform for specific needs presented challenges. When we aimed for a more tailored setup for our event, automating processes became complex, and overlapping schedules sometimes disrupted the waitlist functionality. Although these issues were resolvable, they added a layer of complexity. Additionally, while we utilized Waitwhile's native texting and email features, integration with our existing email system would have been preferable, allowing emails to come from an authorized address.

I use Waitwhile for my office hours, and it really helps me monitor my tasks at hand. I like the good UI as it clearly shows who is waiting, then moves them to serving, and finally to completed. It even shows how much time I have served a person, which is very helpful. The initial setup was good and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waitwhile?

I think Waitwhile could improve by automating the process of moving from 'waiting' to 'serving' instead of doing it manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Waitwhile?

What I like most about Waitwhile is that I can control all booking reservations through the app instead of using my laptop.
