Absolutely hated them and the software.

Pros

Getting rid of it. 100%. It is the only benefit.

Cons

Absolutely everything. I would have dumped it sooner but was locked in a 5 year unbreakable contract. Be careful- this renews automatically. They had me buy 10k sms initially, and topped up usage back to 10k each month. Made excuses not to refund the 10k at the end. Pure theft. Clunky, slow, ugly UI. They will NOT release your data in your database at the end. Attitude is you left, your choice, we are not helping you. Had to start afresh. Everything is an add on. Remote access. Website booking. Facebook booking. Reviews. Hated every moment of dealing with them. Worst software I've ever seen.

unfortunately we were left with no option but to leave isalon due to difficulties in their delivery of services and changes imposed without any consultation.

Pros

the software is fairly easy to use. Appointment making and taking a bill is simple.

Cons

there are so many aspects of the software which don't function well and in some cases provide inconsistent accuracy of data. functionality is not as described or promised and the system would benefit from a complete re-write. in addition the contractual terms are not made clear and may be as long as 5 years. you can only end the contract by giving notice 90 days before the anniversary date of install otherwise you are tied in for another 12 months, which I believe is enforced. the support is not as described and falls short of satisfactory.
