Pros

“It provides a comprehensive set of tools for appointment scheduling, client management, payment processing, and marketing, all within a single platform.”
KL

Kate L.

Sales

“However, from a true multi-location business operations standpoint, our experience has been very different. When managing multiple teams, front desk staff, schedules, client communication, and payment processing across locations, reliability, flexibility, and offline accessibility become critical.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Carlos B.

Owner

“Easy appointment scheduling, useful customer management features, online booking options, reminders help reduce missed appointments, practical tools for managing daily administrative activities, convenient for businesses that handle many appointments.”
LM

Lilyana M.

Planning and Sustainability Professional

Pros

“I really like how you can be seeing clients virtually or in person and using parts of the application you need to manage appointments, billing and notes , really quickly and take your time to learn about many of its other more complex features.”
LL

Lise L.

Co-Owner and Registered Dietitian

“Starting using PB with using Basic Info, then scheduling, then notes allow for great learning curve :)”
DM

Diane M.

Owner and Natural Health Practitioner

“Sometimes losing voice connection or video for clients using their phone on a web browser esp for first time clients.”
BL

Bree L.

Holistic Health Practitioner

Cons

“They can disrupt operations across multiple teams and locations for an entire day. When your business depends on software for scheduling, client management, and payments, there should be a dependable backup or offline mode available.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Carlos B.

Owner

“My biggest complaint is that if you try to export multiple appointments the site will freeze and turn black (which is crazy, especially when you're trying to save data).”
VT

Vani T.

President

“It lacks any functionality suited for industrial asset management, complex technical maintenance, service contracts, or engineering BOMs.”
RC

Ron C.

Engineering and Maintenance Leader

Cons

“I also found that it was difficult to work with customer service at times, reaching an actual person wasn't always the easiest.”
AE

Ashley E.

Certified Peristeam Facilitator

“I found that there were some extra unnecessary steps to complete things like making packages.”
AE
