“Appointment Management, Payment Processing, Security, Appointment Sccheduling, Client Mnagement, Value for Money, and Learning Curve,”
DP

Daisy P.

Hair Stylist

“For example, if I have 5 minutes after each service, and a client books 3 services, it adds 15 minutes after their appointment when I only need the 5!”
ME

Marcella E.

Esthetician

“I love all of the extra features like online booking but having the ability to approve them first, email marketing, automatic reminders, reminding me to write down formulas in my notes and most of all how easy it was to switch over.”

Cons

“The only thing that stopped us was the cost, since our facilities are large and the billing is per-room on the calendar, and thus the cost was more than double the next-most-expensive competitor.”
MK

Matt K.

Co-Founder

“Not being able to text customers directly was an issue in the beginning.”
SS

Suzy S.

Co-Owner

“I hesitate to change service providers.”
AH

Amanda H.

Owner

Cons

“The huge difference between the prices gold level How to input the forms for pt to sign and acknowledge meaning I don’t want to add another program to connect the one that I’m currently using.”
MN

Monique N.

Owner

“Not enough options for website layouts, no options to customize widgets on website in a different way, can’t leave a review on website, hard to sell bundles via website for clients to buy in their own”

“I don’t like that I can post the gift cards, that I can only load one pic at a time and that I can’t upload videos.”
