would recommend this appPros
We have been using Vagaro for a few years now. We have enjoyed the convenience, ease to operate, and love how our customers have enjoyed the friendly reminders and thank you's for their appointments.
Our guests love how easy it is to book online or from our branded mobile app, its easy to send marketing emails with great templates to choose from, and managing our inventory is a breeze.
I love the Confirming of appointments, membership capabilities, package capabilities, keeping track of gift certificates. I wish more pages would be an option on the website builder.

Cons
I feel totally lost, like a have no control over my life, I don't know when my next appointment is, who they are or what they're having done! it's awful.
Ive only used vagaro and wanted to switch but heard so many bad reviews of other services and decided to stay and they have upgraded so many things that had me wanting to leave in the first place.
Difficulty booking couples massages or multiple services, getting charged for services we didn't used to have to pay for and selecting correct profile when merging customers.
