Pros

“I also appreciate the integrated communication tools, such as email and text messaging, which help me stay connected with clients and manage reminders effectively. While I am still learning all the features, the system already feels like a valuable tool for improving workflow and saving time.”

Hemi P.

Owner

“They allow me to stay connected with clients through reminders, promotions, and personalized messages, which helps improve client retention and reduce no-shows.”

Hemi P.

Owner

“Even during our busiest days, the system keeps everything flowing seamlessly, giving us the ability to focus on what matters most which is our clients and the quality of service we provide.”

Roy A.

Administration

Pros

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

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!”

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.”

Amber K.

Salon Owner Cosmetologist

Cons

“I constantly experience issues with my cc flex machine not completing the transaction, which in turn for my clients that relay in using credit to pay for their services are not able cause of me to loose revenue for that day because now I have to wait to run the card or they pay in their next visit!”

David J.

Sole prop

“They also do not have a way to track back bar usage (business use of products) and it would randomly change our inventory and tickets.”

Amy H.

Owner

“That I dont get notification when someone cancels via txt and the appointment disappeared so I cant see who was booked there”

Rebecca B.

Hairdressing

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.”

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”

Monica C.

Sugarist

“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.”
