## Reviews

### "n/a" — 4.0/5

> **Nicola** | *3 October 2019* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That it is cloud based. Easy to use. Multiple users. Good price point.
> 
> **Cons**: That it isn't mobile phone friendly. Sometimes confirmation SMS don't get sent out to clients so I have to constantly double check.
> 
> Great that it's cloud based. Always loving  the updates. Love the online booking software

-----

### "Does everything that is says it does" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *8 October 2019* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: User experience is great, easy to use and great support.
> 
> **Cons**: No click through from time page in the inline booking which can confuse customers.
> 
> Appointments, stock, pos, staff managing and marketing is all included. Easy integration with website and Facebook platforms.

-----

### "Simple Salon user for over 5 years\!" — 4.0/5

> **Sarah** | *12 October 2019* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: General functions are easy to use, affordable and has pretty much everything I need. Easy to book and rebook clients, set up appointment reminders and add \&amp; change services.
> 
> **Cons**: The app doesn’t allow all functions to be performed, such as moving an appointment to a different day or time, or inputting a task without booking it as a clients appointment. &#10;I also find setting up a list to text out clients for promotions tricky at times.
> 
> Overall I am happy, my day to day use is easy \&amp; straight forward.

-----

### "Loyalty not necessarily rewarded" — 3.0/5

> **Sarah** | *18 October 2019* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The program is reasonably easy to work with and does prompt you to find what you are looking for in most cases.
> 
> **Cons**: There have been times where I have really needed to speak to a support person, but this is not an option unless you ask for a return phone call that you need to wait for. &#10;&#10;There is not a simple option for treatment packages so if someone books in for a discount package, we are required to book each treatment in separately and I have to rely on my staff to remember to apply the discount.
> 
> Almost four years ago, I borrowed my mother’s credit card to use for one month of my subscription. I changed it to my then new card soon after, which was charged by Simple Salon. My mother alerted me some time later to the fact that her card was still being charged also. Simple Salon don’t seem to want to take responsibility for this glitch and in reply to one of the emails I sent trying to get to the bottom of the reason why we were being charged twice for a period of time, their response was sending me the link on how to properly change your card/payment details. Obviously I already knew how to do this as my card was being charged, and this was not the first time over the years that I’d successfully changed payment details. This issue has caused me to refrain from using the online booking feature and I have been researching other booking systems because I am not at all satisfied with this. If I had more time, I would have moved over to another program by now.

### "It's great" — 5.0/5

> **Christie** | *14 October 2019* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the online booking system and the price is very reasonable.
> 
> **Cons**: I'm not at at tech savvy and some of the things on offer while easy to use I don't quite understand.
> 
> I'm very happy with the system although I would love to be able to call customer support when something comes up rather than submitting a request.
