ChiDesk overview

What is ChiDesk?

ChiDesk is a cloud-based software solution that provides appointment scheduling, online booking, employee management, point of sale and marketing functionality in a single platform. ChiDesk is an ideal solution for spa centers, fitness centers, medical spas, and salons with features for managing online bookings, employees, appointment scheduling, customer relationship management (CRM), marketing, reporting, and point of sale.

ChiDesk provides integrated invoicing to records sales, track employee commission, as well as automate stock control, and enables users to streamline sales with an optional bar code scanner and receipt printer. Organizations can also manage all employee schedules, shifts and off days and track work hours using the time clocking function, and employees can view and edit their schedules from anywhere.

ChiDesk’s marketing and CRM tools enable users to filter through client contacts, as well as send SMS or email campaigns to clients. Through automated scheduled messaging, clients are automatically reminded about their appointments. ChiDesk's point of sale tool helps track sales, vouchers, products, packages, courses and services, and users can also monitor availability and usage of a course on a minute-to-minute basis, and keep track of attendance, session usage and memberships.

ChiDesk also enables clients to book online, as well as check in on arrival using a membership card. Reports provides users with the tools to manage the business more effectively by monitoring sales, commission and employee performance, and more.

Key benefits of using ChiDesk
