The thing that would make fresha perform better would be a place where you can store client service chemical history. It would be so helpfull to have this information be able to be noted on the clients file. To print this off or to have a stylist app that could be used for consultations that updates the clients file would be next level\!\! > > I use the free version which means little contact with the fresha team. Just the odd email here and there offering assistance if needed. I like it this way ----- ### "Fuss Free version" — 4.0/5 > **Mel** | *1 December 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The free version is easy to use and not too limiting. Almost as good as a paid system > > **Cons**: Hard to navigate to notes etc. lots of clicks to get to where you need to go. > > It is an easy to use system once you get your head around it, has many free features that allow for the smooth running of our salon. Easy product orders and input of stock, good client information features. Would definitely recommend. ----- ### "Fresha's 'new client fee' policy feels unfair." — 2.0/5 > **Erik** | *12 October 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: They try to cooperate with their clients, and remain positive. Their application is easy to navigate. > > **Cons**: I feel their policy regarding 'new client fees' is unfair. Fresha outline that a charge will be incurred for first time clients, who found my services via their website. I have inquried about this to Fresha several times, as I use their QR code at my store to allow my clients to book an appointment, however, I still get charged for those customers, as if they intially found my services through Fresha, though this is not the case. It seems I am aiding Fresha with gaining new customers, rather than myself receiving this benefit. > > While the fee is supposed to apply to first-time clients who find my services via the Fresha website, I'm being charged for customers who scan my in-store QR code to book. I've repeatedly inquired, as these are my existing clients or ones I've attracted independently, yet Fresha treats them as new clients sourced by them. Essentially, I feel I'm helping Fresha acquire new users rather than benefiting from their platform as intended. ----- ### "Fresha in no longer "Free"" — 4.0/5 > **John** | *13 July 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has great functionality and up until recently it was "Free" The functionality is probably the richest of any other Software in the Beauty industry and this is the reason that it often referred to as the world's \#1 booking software. It is very user friendly and easy to set up and maintain. The Reporting even in the core system is more than adequate. The Help Center and Knowledge base are brilliant and there are abundant videos on Youtube to help one set up all functionality. > > **Cons**: Fresha has built its reputation and user base on the premise that it was "Free"software. However over time they have slowly removed some of the "Free" functionality and started charging. One example being the calculation of Commission which was incorporated into the Payroll module that is not compatible in South Africa. In addition On-line payments which is a must in our indusrty is not available locally. Now giving a full ONE months notice they will start to charge a monthly subscriptions from 1st August 2025 for core features at R90 per person available for bookings. Unfortunately as the software and your data is held in the cloud you will no longer have access after this date. > > It has helped our business dramatically I now have immediate and total control of my finances. We have recently started using the marketing functionallity and it is impressive. ----- ### "Buyer’s Remorse" — 3.0/5 > **Pamela** | *5 March 2026* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: Value for your money is good for a small business. Scheduling is pretty standard. Reporting is average with some critical misses > > **Cons**: No cost of products sold report. They say they provide but you need to pull data from 2 different reports and unfortunately our inventory report has negative costs which they can’t explain. The data transfer process was a mess that required us to do a lot of manual fixing. Fresha blamed on our data however we did data capture before the transfer and know that is not the case. In 1 year we’ve had at least 3 different account reps and responded back is slow or doesn’t happen at all. > > It’s not a complex system which is appealing to a small business along with the cost, however there are some usability issues that could be easily be fixed if they had good product \[sensitive content hidden\] and tech support. ----- Page: 1 / 59\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/142138/shedul-com?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/142138/shedul-com) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | da | | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fi | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nb | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
