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

“From appointment management to charting, marketing and client management, customer support and security, Mangomint is hands down the best software for Medical Spas.”

Kimberly A.

Marketing Director

“If I could add one feature to MangoMint it would be automatic rebooking screen pop up as soon as payment is done on the terminal.”

Kelly M.

Spa Owner

“The scheduling and appointment management are seamless, the interface is very user-friendly, and client management keeps everything organized in one place.”

Yanina A.

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.

“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

“That I cannot use my stripe capital access funds I transact with since this would be extremely helpful to expand more locations and will make more $ with mango but unfortunately cannot get stripe capital because mango is not apart of that”

Tony C.

Ceo

“The Mangomint transfer couldn’t transfer over our business’s personal block time so we had to transfer over this data before opening our new schedule to clients.”

Janelle F.

Vogue Hair Studio Owner Operator

“Furthermore, Mangomint does not keep track of deposits paid in an easily accessible way, so checkout in these situations is very problematic with us searching through client history for previous deposits paid, and doing math at the checkout desk.”

Whitney M.

CEO
