This is the worst booking platform…

This is the worst booking platform imaginable. I work for a non-profit and have booked through their platform 4 different times. Every single time, the venue has cancelled with us (anywhere between 3 days and 3 weeks before the event), leaving us in a complete scramble and ruining events for hundreds of people. There's absolutely no protection or guarantee for bookers and the school/space can cancel on you down to the wire with no consequences.

I'm sorry to hear this was your experience and so our team took a close look at your reservations to understand what happened.

In your case, one request was declined due to facility availability, one was not able to move forward due to a same-day internal conflict, and another was approved but later suspended because required insurance documentation was not provided.

At no point was a confirmed reservation canceled at the last minute.

School districts ultimately control facility availability and require certain conditions—like insurance—to be completed in order for a booking to proceed. If those requirements aren’t met, the reservation cannot be finalized.

That said, we recognize how this experience could feel frustrating, and we’re continuing to improve how status and requirements are communicated, and how responsive facility operators are to requests. Our team is always available to help renters secure a facility and ensure everything is completed ahead of time.

Extremely disappointed with how our gym reservations have been handled. We pay in full and reserve specific times, yet every time we show up, there’s a conflict we’re either asked to leave for another event or told the gym isn’t available. It’s unacceptable that we can’t rely on confirmed reservations. To make matters worse, basic needs like raising the basketball goals can’t be met because no one on-site, not even the school staff, has a key. Our season just started, and we’ve already had to scramble and change our schedule multiple times due to poor management and lack of organization. This experience has been beyond frustrating and very unprofessional.

Paid $40 for no response from rental facility

This one-star review is not worth my time but I was charged more than $40 simply to make a request for a facility rental. The facility never contacted me after a month of me waiting and Facilitron was not able to provide a contact for the facility. DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE unless you have money to waste.

Absolutely terrible

Absolutely terrible, monopolistic service -- especially when it comes to local government location rentals. Those guys don't keep any availability dates updates, and never respond to applications -- we have 10 paid applications sitting without a response for over 1 month! Others have had the same experience. Facilitron gives a sense of control and simplificaiton for renters, but the outcomes is worse. It's a total and utter disaster.

Charges you prior to approval

Charges you prior to approval, you get denied 95% of the time. Facilities dont update their availability, and then you take the time to inquire and if its within two weeks you get back 25% of the booking. You cannot inquire to another facility, because they take out more working capital from your business and if it gets approved, and the other does as well its a scheduling conflict and you would have to cancel one and you would lose money. Scam business.

Process for payment

Process for payment was not properly explained to my organization. We were told that the card on file would be charged again closer to time, well that didn’t happen. The booking process is also very difficult.

Software is supposed to make a process easier no? Yet all Fscilitron seem to have done is make a booking process more cumbersome. More difficult to navigate and more expensive. Someone needs to build to knock these guys off the box because their product is trash

Facilitron is an asset to our District

Our district have been working with Facilitron for over two years. Lee is always quick to respond and very helpful. Even when I ask the same questions more than once. lol He will always let me know if he will be away. I have reached out to customer service to take care of something. Which they always do, however sometimes it may not be right away. But they do fix the issue or make the necessary changes. Facilitron has been an asset in scheduling internal external events.

Facilitron has really helped to improve our rental experience with the community. I love that we (the district) can connect with the renters, site, and all other admin under one platform. Customer service is excellent and I love the transparency that we are able to share through data collected and reports within Facilitron,

I went to pay my final installment two weeks prior. Balance said zero. 10 days later they send on invoice to my email. Next morning I go to pay the invoice and find out they canceled my reoccurring event. Then they want to charge me several hundred dollars to re-establish my events. Additionally, Facilitron operators are not helpful. They do not listen and keep repeating the same script. I've also requested escalation to a supervisor twice. No supervisor ever responded

One of the worst site to make reservation, unresponsive. They dont do anything, have to call them to follow up with the facility adminstrator. Had to show them the facility is no longer accepting renting, worst is they haven’t refunded the deposit despite several attempts. AVOID facilitron.

AVOID Facilitron!!!

AVOID Facilitron!!!! I had some super bad experiences with this company, they charged me so much money even the venue denied my request, but the other agent told me I was supposed to be charged for it. I did not pay attention to my past bill, till now, I found I was charged so much money that I am not suppose to be charged!!! I will have to take legal action and more!!!

We appreciate your feedback Ray and are ready to assist you to process any refunds for overcharges that you are due. However, as we often mention in these reviews, Facilitron does not set pricing for rentals. Pricing is determined by each facility operator. Each operator also has the opportunity to review pricing on individual requests prior to approval. If your request was approved, then the facility operator reviewed your request, the specific facility requested, the dates, the times and the pricing. If the operator made a mistake and charged incorrect amounts, we can assist you in receiving a refund or credit for a future rental. We can also assist you in requesting these adjustments. If you'll respond to us, we can have our support team reach out to you and help you resolve your dispute.

Well, so many things that I cannot list them all. Notably, zero starts was not an option. Additionally, I am not Jorge Machado. A software company that cannot manage a simple mail merge is emblematic of how bad this software is.
