I want to know can we use this plugin for restaurant table reservation? like if table 2 is selected for 2:00pm to 3:00pm then no one can select the table during this time slot until unless the first person cancel the reservation.
Yes, Amelia can be used for restaurant table booking.
We don't have an option for displaying the table plan, but you can create tables in the place where our employees are, and give customers the option to pick one of the tables.
You can also set minimum and maximum capacity for each table and disable the option "Allow booking below minimum capacity". We made this option for this kind of use case since it works in the way that once some customer books above minimum capacity it automatically closes this time slot for the particular table so other customers (that don't know each other) can not fill in the table until the maximum capacity is reached.
Please just be aware that at the moment each employee (table) would need a different email set in the profile but there is a workaround if you plan to use Gmail or Outlook mail.
There is no double booking with Amelia so yes when a one time slot is occupied nobody can book that time but you will need to create employee for each table separately because "services/table" time slots are directly tied to employee time slots.
Thanks for your response, As there is no dummy site listed for restaurant in your website please refer me any site so that i can check the functionality before purchasing the plugin.
also please tell me what is meant by "Packages of Services" which is unavailable in basic plan but available in others.
Also tell me, My client's website is group of restaurants means in single website there is 2 to 3 restaurants, so will this plugin can create different timing slots with different restaurants and no overlapping of timing as i asked before?
We do not keep track of our customers who use Amelia for restaurant booking or we would gladly help and sent it to you.
As for packages of services, this is the only feature that is not included in the Basic license, the rest of the features are absolutely identical.
Packages of Services is a feature that allows creating packages of multiple appointments (of the same or different services). In that case, the services that are included in the package and the number of appointments will be fixed, and the price will be set for the whole package. Customers will be able to book included Appointments on any days, with no strict recurrence. You can see more information here.
Look at packages as gym packages. For example, you have "Gym access" service, "Treadmill" service, "Bike" service, "Spa" service, and so on. You can create a package that includes all these services for a reduced price.
So, you create a "Full access" package, where all these services are included. You define the number of appointments per service, and allow your customers to book all these services in one go.
So, a customer can book this package, and book "Gym access" for 5 days (free for choosing), "Treadmill" for 3 days, "Bike" for 2 days, "Spa" for 7 days, and so on. You define the number of bookings for each service.
There will be no overlapping if you create separate categories, services, and employees.
You can create for example pizza London for one restaurant and for that service create separate employees, and then you can create pizza NY and you add new employees and assigned them to that service and there will be no overlaping.
