Arbox vs. Timely Booking and Client Management Software

Fully recommended if you plan to work in a centralized way, adding all the useful aspects for the business management to be adequate, either for sales or advertising areas, or even for logistics and human resources management. Arbox can be exploited in practically all business scenarios.

I've researched a lot of salon software, and Timely was the top-of-the-line software that does it all compared to competitors. It has a friendly interface, offers easy ways to communicate with clients via text and emails, and provides insights and reports, so it indeed does everything you need for booking software. On top of that, it's cloud-based, so say goodbye to only accessing your appointment book through your computer at the salon.

• The reporting system for branding and marketing that Arbox has allows us to work by sales ranges, which allows us to cover different time sectors, and therefore we can work with sales depending on the seasonal format we decide, and that helps us to set different goals.

• The platform helps us to keep our company and business information safe, which prevents us from worrying about situations such as scams. Thanks to factors like this is that we have nothing negative to point out about the Arbox platform. It is excellent and we plan to continue using it in the future to keep growing.

Timely is by far the most user-friendly and fun to use. It's got a great interface, works on iPads, and training is super easy for the team. Other software is clunky and takes too long to set up and train the team to use.

• For the moment we have not calculated the level of increase in return on investment that has been achieved with the use of Arbox, since the time using it has not been enough to define a stable amount of profit, or in any case, that stands out much in relation to the amount earned before its use by the company, so we hope to update this section in the future.

• Bragging rights, yes. Always cool to tell how automated your business is.
• ROI, no. In our case, it wasn't worth the time spent in integration into the website, system setup, plus subscription fee. However, take into account, that High-Value Professional Services is a wrong industry for this product.
• Convenience and confidence that there will be no double booking across G Suite and Timely was tested and were really handy at the times.
• No ability to use our own SMTP. If your server has Anti-Spoofing DKIM and etc., setting it up with Timely was a nightmare as support had no idea. So a lot of emails were going to Spam on the client's side.
