Its easy to use and does everything-the online booking facility is great.

The ability to customize it in so many ways. We have a Laser Tag attraction that we needed to take reservations for in order to follow safety procedures due to Covid.

I integrate with Stripe and Paypal so my booking and checking out process is seamless. I love the fact that everything is digital and I am 100% paperless and compliant for GDPR.

Really glad I moved from Schedul to Ovatu best decision.

Not much possibly too long numbers when buying vouchers I find adding treatments sometimes confusing for me we could have a choice of background or seasonal i.e. Christmas Easter summer etc.

Works seamlessly, super reliable, clients love the online booking, but most of all the team are great.

The online booking is a great feature and ever growing area of our business. Very customer friendly and integrates well in the system.

So far* inability to integrate with Square. I prefer it to Stripe, which does the job in the intervening period, and I've been advised that Square may be in the works.

The customer service was super helpful. I wouldn't have been able to customize it to my needs without their useful guidance.

It is the lifeline of my business. The booking reminders that are sent automatically are brilliant and certainly saves cancellations.

Just the odd fidly bit-But its really straightforward.

This software takes the pain out of running my business, from managing bookings to automated client contact, social media and back-end reporting.

Easy to navagate value for money your always at the end of the telephone when we need or you make an appointment easy to navigate through love the reminders for my clients keeps them up to date.

This software is super easy to use and manage. Once it has been setup it pretty much runs itself which gives me time to get on with my business.

It's so easy to use and the customer service is fantastic, if ever help is needed someone is on hand very quickly to solve any problems.

Great software and brilliant customer service.

I don't like the inability to block out a specific day. You can block but it still allows you to book over it.

The cost compared to other similar systems is fantastic and as mentioned all support and training provided is excellent.

Integration with website and Facebook page. Ability to send group emails to different customers depending on demographic or tags.

So easy to use, to set up (amazing customer service support with integration of data from previous system).

Intuitive with 100% dedicated support. The OVATU system is enjoyed by both staff and customers.

Leaving it too long before I got OVATU as I was using google calendar and had no way of tracking appointments.

The simplicity of the set-up, online booking and ease of access for my clientele is fab. Customer Service is second to none.

M truly so thrilled with the service I’ve received from ovatu, I’ve already recommended this programme to other colleagues.

Cant fault it one bit, id highly recommend to anyone needing or looking in to an online booking system. Having looked into a few, Ovatu has came out on top and ticked all my boxes for business.

Even when there were slight hiccups for me setting it up, customer service (I have dealt with where amazing!) cleared it up so fast.

Seriously outstanding support (and the product is great too!).

Unable to set up more than 1 set week (I work shifts). No shop option for customers to buy products online.

I like the option to set rotas depending on the current situation and for events such as Christmas. Also having a full list of treatments with prices that I can tweak for individual bookings.

The pricing is very affordable and, for everything that is included, is a bargain.

On the payment screen theee are too many steps if this could be broken down to a simpler version of cash / eftpos then paid it would be much simpler.

The support team have been totally awesome,  they imported all my old appointments from my old system, so i have full client history. Always responded sometimes within minuets.

I love the great customer service, the step by step help guides, the fact that everything is in one plae at the click of a button.

Any assistance that is needed, not only are they more than happy to help but the speed in which they do this always amazes me.

M trying to close my Plus account but nope, no one gets back to me and they’re still charging me. Absolutely disgusted and now cancelling my card so they can’t steal anymore of my money.

Hands down the most outstanding customer service.

All businesses need systems, simple systems work best, just the accounting integration. They get that right, they will have an absolute winner.

I used fresha and I had so much support from [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN. He was truly amazing and patient with me , always answering my questions.

Fresha just changed my life, the CS is fantastic, my customers handle their own appointments and it saved me a lot of time, very comfortable app.

I don’t take credit cards so I don’t need the extra service. I had to dispute it on my credit card company.

It’s all about learning with new products and how easy they are fresha is easy to adapt to and function and customer care are great.

Will start working again in september. I am so positive so far...and I’m hoping it will stay that way.

Very easy to use, very intuitive, with an awesome customization level considering it is a free software.

M out of my policy no show fee and I’ve lost an hour of my time with production.

Fresha makes them a new account and I get charged the ridiculous 20% fee. Do you think I can get support to reply to my emails.

Great little booking tool. I switched when i wanted a paperless clinic.

Clients can book in easily and the book now buttons create opportunities for clients to see who’s available at any time day or night. I love all the features and the consultation helps a great deal.

Except on the website it says it’s included in the 2.29% plus $0.20 per transaction fees. M already very upset at the delay only to hear about these extra costs.

It is easy to use so far and even the free version a small business can use. And as i can understand the Fresha Plus is also cheap.

Great for the whole team , great for rebooking clients and the appointment reminders are brilliant.

The customer service is excellent. They are a company that operates great ethics.

It’s easy to use, send reminders and the service of the Fresha team is amazing.

For me the system it’s just amazing, from online bookings, text and email confirmations for clients, costumer service when I have doubts they are fast with solutions and explanations.

You can choose to use the program for free. If you want to add the 'Plus' utilities, you pay a fair price.

I must admit I might be confused on the billing policy.

It is very easy to use with good customizations. Many options are very practical to use.

Best admin support- so quick and detailed. Program is easy, user friendly, and free of charge loving it.

This is amazing if looking for a start up online and booking system. Easy to use, simple for clients, and has a free version.

I really like the fact that you can utilize almost everything you need to run a successful business. It keeps track on everything with integrated options to social media plus google.

The headache and frustration of dealing with them is too much. If I did not already have my clients set up in their system, I would be switching to something else.

It’s great for start up and small businesses. So many fantastic features that are complimentary with the small debit fee that is only taken upon sale.

The new client consultation forms are very easy to use and easy to edit. I love the marketing features which prove very popular with the clients.

Friendly use, full integration solution for barber shops.

We are very pleased with the outstanding. Investment Fresha has brought our Company.
