    Pros
    I love that the interface is easy for both the salon and our clients to use. Its awesome that I have so many different reports at my fingertips.
    I love the ease of convenience and the flawless layout of the app. Best value for the money paid.
    It’s easy and accessible, I love that my clients can book when ever they want with out having to go through me.
    Cons
    Not being able to remove or hide negative reviews.
    The text message reminders have the booksy name first so clients get confused about who they are from. The booksy name should be at the back or not at all.
    Not easy to edit appointments and difficult for clients to book online. I was with Genbook and Genbook merged with Booksy, so disappointing.
