HoneyBook is a CRM tool built for all kinds of SMBs in US & Canada. Some of the areas where HoneyBook’s features help are - invoicing, time tracking, payments, and automated workflows.
However, it becomes very clear at the onset that this is a tool for creative service providers (built originally for wedding planners). While providing a detailed “customer pipeline” way of managing clients, it misses out on a variety of features required in a coaching practice because it hasn’t been built for coaches.
Simply.Coach on the other hand is an end-to-end coaching management platform, built by coaches, for coaches! It's a great HoneyBook alternative for those who are looking for a coaching-centric platform!

Here’s what users missed in HoneyBook
(HoneyBook reviews from Capterra)
"I would like more creative ability within the documents. Also don't like how some of the documents including invoices interact. It's hard to explain. It's both easy and complicated at the same time.”
"Should be able to have more functionality
“The customer service can take a while to answer the phone or resolve a problem online"
“The templates are basic. For our business specifically we had to basically create a template, but that was the only negative.”
"I find it really expensive and it's not known to the general public." (Simply.Coach
