What out customers are saying
I am so excited! I have been looking for a system like this for a long time.
Our new BookingPoint system has changed the way we do things here at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama dramatically. Students now return resources on time and I do not have to spend valuable time chasing them up or reminding them to return items. I know exactly where all the Academy’s instruments and equipment are at a click of a button. Just brilliant, thanks!!
We have welcomed BookingPOINT with open arms. It delivers a beautiful visual representation of the whereabouts of our inventory. It does a great job in tracking the history of bookings. The very transparent underlying structure of the developer edition makes it easy to customise BookingPOINT to your own situation. I recommend it highly.
The work you did with BookingPOINT and the time & thoughtfulness with which you took all of my suggestions really made an impression on me, and I both commend and thank you for it.
I wanted to pass along thanks and praise for creating a wonderful product. I was able to transfer over user and resource data from our bloated MySQL reservation system with little to no effort, creating a virtually seamless transition from our old product to BookingPOINT. I feel confident that we’ll be using your product for many years to come.
We made some previous attempts to find the best booking system that could provide us the flexibility we need. BookingPOINT was considered for many reasons. I don’t hesitate to encourage others to purchase BookingPOINT; it’s been a good decision.
BookingPOINT has enabled us to take control… of everything. A dependable product with solid support.
We are so delighted. This system has been a tremendous improvement to our student video equipment checkout system. We are now better able to control access to resources and track usage.
We decided to give BookingPOINT a try and it helped us out immediately. I would definitely recommend BookingPOINT if you want to keep control of your AV department and have both employees and students satisfied. PS: I recommended BookingPOINT to an institute in the Netherlands so my optimism is genuine.
BookingPOINT is fast, reliable and simple to use. It’s been instrumental in helping us track our equipment usage and maintenance, providing useful data for planning our inventory life-cycles. We appreciate other well-considered features such as the automated, configurable return notifications, customizable splash screen and accessible web interface. Keep up the good work!
BookingPOINT has become so important for managing bookings remotely in a fair and orderly manner.
We use bookingPOINT to manage multimedia equipment loans to approximately 400 students per semester. BookingPOINT definitely allows us to service students, faculty, and staff more efficiently and faster than we had been able to in the past. Thanks!
After much research we found BookingPOINT to be the most complete online resource booking solution for the money. I would recommend that anyone in the business of managing and tracking portable resources take a look at this application.
I’ve been a university technician for 26 years and i have never seen anything that works so well.
We’ve found BookingPOINT to be stable and very reliable. We’ve also found Hi-Voltage have been very friendly and helpful, both during the initial setup phase and in helping us fine-tune the system to our specific requirements.
Claris FileMaker Requirements
Claris FileMaker Pro per administrator workstation (sold separately).
On-line bookings require ‘Claris FileMaker Server + Connections‘ (sold separately). If you are purchasing Claris FileMaker Server, you will need to purchase sufficient Connections that suit your needs. To determine how many Connections you need, you need to consider how many web users will be accessing BookingPOINT at the exact same time. Generally we recommend 10 to 20 connections, but your needs may differ. You can always purchase more connections when you need them.
Automated reminder emails, issuing of demerit points and auto-suspensions require the base version of Claris FileMaker Server.
To obtain current pricing for FileMaker software, please visit the Claris web site.
Claris FileMaker Compatibility
BookingPOINT works with Claris FileMaker version 16 onwards.
System Requirements
BookingPOINT is a Claris FileMaker Pro solution, therefore BookingPOINT will run on any computer / operating system that Claris FileMaker Pro runs on.
