Whether it’s for doctor appointments, dining out, fitness sessions, or phone repairs, it’s now essential to arrange your time and location in advance to avoid queues or missing opportunities. However, traditional booking methods such as phone calls, text messages, or websites often come with many inconveniences and problems, such as busy lines, lost information, and complex operations.

To solve booking issues, most traditional businesses opt to purchase or customize other booking software systems, but these systems can be costly and may not suit their actual needs. For startups or SMEs, such investment poses a significant risk and burden.

VIMOS enables you to effortlessly create and automatically send booking forms to your customers using WhatsApp, a widely used messaging app. Customers can fill out and submit the booking form on WhatsApp by scanning a QR code or clicking a link. You can also view and manage all booking information on VIMOS and instantly communicate and confirm with customers through a WhatsApp Chatbot. “A simple WhatsApp Form can quickly set up a booking system!”
