### We have had a wonderful overall experience with Spabiz since day 1.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Lindsey F.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2018

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The software is extremely user friendly and easy to navigate. Support with technical questions, reporting, etc...is always top notch.

#### Cons

It would be nice to have more customizing options. Altering standings vs deleting all and starting over. Email and text communications with guests outside of just confirmations.

#### Vendor response

Hi Lindsey! Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. It¿s great ideas like yours fuel our future development. We have a brand new texting feature using artificial intelligence we are certain that your guests will love. Can¿t wait to share with you, speak with you soon!

### Great Software...If They Fix the Glitches

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Mary Lou M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Cosmetics
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: January 2024
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

It's "okay". I feel like there has to be something out there that has fewer glitches and better support during the hours we may need it. We are open for three hours before they even open.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I love the reports, it allows me to see what's going on in my business.

#### Cons

- I was expecting premium service as I was told this was premium software. - The system has went down several times in the past 2.5 years we have been using it. - Service providers often don't get their notifications. - Support is lacking, especially for us on the east coast. - Can't call to get "real time" support. If you do get someone on the phone, they are usually very polite though. - Takes forever for them to get back to you and when they do, they want you to do more work. Give them "more examples of the problem". - As a Canadian client, I don't like paying in US$ as it fluctuates. Honestly, I wouldn't even mind that so much if we didn't have so many little problems. - At one time, they apparently forgot to click the box that says "Canadian" for pricing and all my products were being sold as US$ prices but in Canadian dollars!!

#### Reasons for choosing SalonBiz

Again, I went with the recommendation because they are supposed to be integrated with Aveda.

#### Reasons for switching to SalonBiz

I was told that Salonbiz is one of the best for Aveda salons. Why wouldn't you want a premium software for your premium brand?

### Salon / Spa Biz

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Kevin T.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Consumer Services
- Company size: Self-Employed
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: July 2021
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

I’d 100% recommend this to a salon or spa that has hourly and commission service providers. It’s not for smaller fledgling establishments.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

It’s an all in one software that literally allows you to setup, run and manage your salon / spa. The most comprehensive of them out there.

#### Cons

With it being so comprehensive, I found that it was quite a bit of overkill for me, a suite renter with no employees. That being said, their smallest subscription is for 3 users. And it’s on the costly side.

#### Reasons for choosing SalonBiz

I wanted to go all in to see if it were to help me build my business at a reasonable cost.

#### Reasons for switching to SalonBiz

I wanted to experience SalonBiz to see how well it fit in my business.

### Ultimate Salon

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: connie p.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Apparel & Fashion
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: July 2021
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Overall it is great, I would not use anything else! We all went through a great deal last year and we have not recovered completely, it will take time to be what we were and know where we are all going...

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

It was easy to learn and use. They are innovative and directly aligned with Aveda which helps me as an Aveda Salon. They stay on top of the industry needs and provide us with good service on how to use the software.

#### Cons

Not alway impressed with the customer support. Wait times can be extremely lengthy and not always helpful. I feel the new updates from enterprise to central are not delivered consistently and at times not on the spot. Do not get me wrong, I love Salon Biz, I just feel at times they need to be more consistent with support

#### Reasons for switching to SalonBiz

We had Salon Biz in the past and switched to Salon Iris when Salon Biz was not able to link multi locations together in 2004/2005. When we united two new locations in 20011/2012 the program had changed and once again we went with Salon Biz and have been with them thru this current date.

I've been working with SalonBiz on and off for almost ten years. Although it's easy to use it is definitely time for an update.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### Pros

SalonBiz is easy to use, once you know what you're doing...

It is very outdated, definitely could use a facelift to make use and appearance easier.

### Great Salon Product- but must have patience

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Cosmetics
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: January 2019
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

We stay really organized. There are a lot of great features like being able to put a clients birthday in their file.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I love the format of the program. It’s easy to learn how to use and there a lot of great features to help your salon run smoothly.

#### Cons

Technical support is a joke. Half the time SalonBiz tech supports blame issues on internet or Aveda Pure Privilege

#### Vendor response

### Not terrible but not the best

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Allison P.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Restaurants
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: November 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Overall it is a good software to use with it's different pros and cons. I like that it is an easy system to learn and easy screens to navigate through.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

It is easy to navigate through the software and the picture icons are a nice bonus. If you don't know what the icon means just hover your mouse over it and it says the name of the icon/what or does. I personally think that is helpful as pictures are easier on the eyes.

#### Cons

Does not allow you to move appointments around with ease as I normally have to go out of the appointment and then go back in to edit it again. You are also no longer able to call salonbiz and have them reopen it when there is a ticket error. Therefore, it should allow us to edit tickets right away without having to contact someone.
