Customer service is great. Always there to chat if I have any problems. Always there if I need more education on this software. A fantastic company to be with.

Pros

It has everything a salon owner needs to go toward in their business. Stock take, wages, product sales, the list is endless in what you can do.

Cons

To be honest, There is nothing I like least with Salon IQ

May 16, 2019

5.0

Excellent, support is fabulous and I’ve always had any queries answers

Pros

Digital consultation forms for beauty along with accessing information on mobile phones

Cons

Just the transition from previous, although better it’s always daunting when switching over but it was smooth and now so much easier to access information

### "Very smooth transition from previous system, great customer interface."

January 16, 2018

5.0

Faster booking times while client is at the desk. All the information you need at your fingertips, quickly. We've saved time on updating our own system of performance graphing. Great support and information.

Pros

Apart from the colour screen display! I particularly like the speed, capability, user friendly design and marketing functions. It's a time saver too. The technical team are very patient and supportive with a fast response time. I really appreciate the calls just to check that everything is going well for us and if we're happy. That doesn't happen with many suppliers!

Cons

To be honest, I can't think of anything really at the moment. A couple of annoying little things were fixed on the last update.

SalonIQ have been AMAZING.. From the speed of installation to support and development. I love my point of contact. Her enthusiasm for her product is infectious. Thank you

Pros

I love that I can access it from anywhere. I love the reports that it sends me. I don’t have to extract the info it’s there at the start of my week in my inbox ... FANTASTIC. I love the Dashboard that the staff have for there targets and development. We love that clients details are all checked and signed for on the iPad ... This software has been like a breath of Fresh Air . Thank you Salon IQ

Cons

There isn’t anything that I don’t dislike.

### "4 months in and very happy!"

July 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

Overall ease of use, support and value for money are the top. After a few years of another system the overall functionality of the point of sale and back end reporting is concise.

Cons

There are the odd glitch (as a mac user the software does freeze - a couple of times a week, not a huge issue. Log out and log back in). GDPR - accessing all the info we have worked to update - there doesn't seem to be a report to so this information can utilised. Generally this software has made our work days much easier!

thanks Dean for your feedback and review. Let our support team look at your mac issues and see whats going on. GDPR reporting is something thats been discussed and we will be looking into.

### "simple cloud software that works"

May 30, 2014

5.0

Pros - this is simple software that once bought will run for free on all other pcs (plus my mac at home) I have tried other software but this one has the main areas I needed. best bits - easy appointment booking all the marketing I can set up and it does it itself throughout the year, such as birthday , lost client emails, new client surveys - as I needed my new stylist Staceys column filled and fast I switched on the automatic recommend a friend text service just for her - it filled her column for the next 4 weeks ! cons - I was worried about it being cloud the internet might drop out so I bought an internet dongle - wished I hadn't - later found out I could have used my iPad - they should have told me that before. they are not open all night , only till 9pm I often work late and it would be helpful if they are 24 hours - other than that they are very good and are helpful

### "salon software"

January 22, 2019

5.0

reduced our 'no shows' as the text reminder appointment service is sent. the systems text service allows us to get info to our guests immediately, and therefore an instant response from guests, so good for daily offers etc.

Pros

easy to set up and use. can personalise it to your needs. help is easily accessable , and a few ways to get help; on line, by phone, the hub. the text service is brilliant

Cons

we dont have a brilliant internet where we are and the system relies on it so it freezes and goes down daily for us. so good internet is a must for this system.

January 29, 2019

Excellent support from the reps and the team at salon IQ. The reps usually answer queries on a Saturday, even though I wouldn't expect her to, being her day off. All issues we have had, they have sorted out no problem.

Pros

Very easy to use, can access on mobile, good easy to understand reports. Simple appointment system and good security reports as well.

Cons

Have not found a down side as yet, nothing at present.
