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

“What I like best about Pabau is how seamlessly it streamlines clinical charting, patient scheduling, and practice workflows into a single intuitive platform.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Ally T.

Physician Associate - Provider

“The system has helped streamline our patient journey, bookings, consultations and communication all in one place, making day-to-day clinic management far more efficient.”
BB

Birju B.

Director

“The AI dictation feature has been a huge time-saver, accurately capturing my notes and reducing the amount of typing I have to do.”
MB

Michael B.

Registered Nurse

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

“Our biggest disappointment was learning that true two-way SMS messaging wasn't available when we implemented the platform, as we originally believed it was. Since texting is a major part of patient communication in aesthetics, this was an important feature for our practice.”
LW

Leigh W.

Practice Manager

“Before switching to Pabau, we were using Zenoti and experienced daily operational issues that frequently interrupted our workflow and required ongoing troubleshooting.”
LW

Leigh W.

Practice Manager

“Time difference between Europe and USA and restriction of support staff time availability which makes it hard to schedule times”
