Customer reviews
NextMe consistently ranks among the best waitlist apps on the market. We asked our customers how their operations have changed since using our software. Many responded, and here’s some of what they had to say.
“NextMe has completely changed the way we interact with guests. Wait times are down, and staff are more productive. It’s been a game-changer for our office.”

“NextMe allowed us to turn long lines into meaningful brand engagement. Fans loved the experience, and we maximized our sampling opportunity at the event.”

“I love the ease of use of this software. We don’t always have the same staff running the software, but the simplicity makes training easy for us. NextMe is also great about taking in customer feedback. We appreciate that partnership so much.”

“With NextMe, the process has become so much more efficient, so we need a smaller staff. Customers who leave their reviews online say they love the new system because it’s very organized and lets them plan their wait time outside the restaurant. Positive reviews, in turn, bring even more customers to our restaurant.”

“We’d been looking for a digital waitlist system like NextMe for years. Moving forward, we can now assure our patients that they can wait and check into our facility in a safe and efficient manner.”

“Pet Check has seen a dramatic increase in client satisfaction. We often have long wait times due to high volume. Knowing how valuable time is, NextMe has given our clients the ability and freedom to utilize their time as they wait.”

“NextMe’s virtual waitlist software has helped us improve the guest experience and has increased our guest throughput. The app helps tremendously by keeping track of how long our guests have waited, and how many we have waiting at our DMV.”

“NextMe was incredibly intuitive and easy to use and enabled us to effectively manage attendee flow.”

“Easy to use and to train brand ambassadors to use. Also the clients like the customization and data collected.”

“Our restaurant is a midsize bar and grill and this app is perfect for our waitlist needs. We only have 18 tables in the restaurant so we tend to get a wait very quickly. NextMe is perfect for notifying people over text so they don’t have to wait inside the small restaurant. They have great customer service that fixes problems as soon as they arise. It’s easy to learn and there have been no problems training hosts on how to work it. The app has created a smoother pace for our restaurant and helped us get customers seated quicker than ever before. Highly recommend and can’t say enough good things about it.”

“We have long waits, so we were writing people’s names on paper and then calling their names. That sometimes created chaos, especially in summer, when the wait was 70–90 people. We tried buzzers at one point, but people would take them with them and lose them, so it was a big cost to our business. We wanted to automate this service, so we needed a vendor to help us. The NextMe app simplified and improved our customer waiting experience.”

“NextMe helped us keep the energy and excitement of the event, stay compliant with city requirements, and create a much better experience for everyone. Our security team loved having that level of control, and our guests appreciated the freedom to explore Chicago while they waited. It was truly a win for everyone.”

“I love the virtual queue system. Fans can scan in, enjoy the show, and come right back to a very short wait. They can roam around the con without worrying about losing their place in line. From our side, the user experience is easy to use and it's been a great experience overall.”

“NextMe allowed us to eliminate long lines while giving our guests a seamless way to engage with our activations. It’s a game-changer for experiential marketing.”
