Pros

“The price is higher than all other platforms similar, I feel like if I have two locations we should be able to split sms msgs between both locations, I’m paying for them already and if I don’t use all in one location I should have ability to use at other location.”

Andrea R.

Owner

“Online booking has been great and the fact that we can requests deposits for first time client's and also give them a policy notice for no/shows-late appointment.”

Mario M.

Salon owner

“The ease of use, keeping track of clients history, notes, the chat feature in the desktop version, and the quick response from support if I need help with anything.”

Christina Q.

Owner Operator

Pros

“Boulevard was presented to us as an all-inclusive, intuitive, and synergistic platform that could streamline online booking, scheduling, memberships, rewards, client communication, marketing, and business management in one system.”

Sarah H.

General Manager

“It has helped streamline our day-to-day operations, provides a great experience for both our staff and patients, and continues to be a reliable platform for our business.”

Ashley K.

Office Manager

“On the backend, the reporting tools, service customization, and client notes help me maintain the kind of high-touch, detail-driven service my guests expect.”

michele b.

Owner

Cons

“The only thing I wish I could fix about phorest is that phorest should automatically email the account holder when the inventory drops below the minimum quantity.”

Hailey S.

Owner

“The price is expensive, especially like I am one person and I pay $85 or something like that monthly so that’s lots for one person but as a group in Salon is a good price but not for me”

Felor D.

salon Davachi by Felor

“some reports are a bit confusing, like the retention report. when you archive a guest, they still have the availability to book, but wont show on the appointment screen until you unarchive them.”

April A.

salon leader and marketing director

Cons

“Clients can reply to automated appointment reminder texts, but those messages are not reliably delivered unless someone is actively logged into the desktop dashboard.”

George H.

Owner

“constant glitching, system-wide crashes, lack of improvement in software with requested changes or improvements”

Joshua G.

Owner

“It’s incredibly frustrating and embarrassing to have to explain to patients that we can’t book appointments or process payments for services or products.”
