    Smaller companies (less than 30 employees) and where their isn't recurring services. It's great for one-time service providers.

    Phorest Salon Software
    It's well suited if you own a salon and are looking for a software to manage all of your needs - stock/inventory, staff schedules, client bookings and rebookings. It's more salon focused than clinic focused (e.g. if you have a wellness center it's not ideal for consent forms for example). Changing staff price offering is a bit time consuming.

    HouseCall Pro
    It is much easier to adopt than other FSMs we have tried. While easy to adopt, it is robust and powerful. We were up and running in a matter of days, not weeks.

    Knowify has job costing but lacks the ability to invoice in the field and requires more work from [the] office staff.

    Phorest Salon Software
    Phorest is a more modern software, although it can still be more intuitive to use its much better than other options out there. I feel it works great for someone who has been using salon software for many years and wants to upgrade to something more modern, or for someone who is switching over from pen and paper to manage their appointments
