I'm Loving this program the more I learn

My experience with Groomsoft has been excellent and I will refer your software to others.

PROS

The software itself is very easy with a little help on how certain things work its a great software. I needed something that had everything in one program and this one did still needing the online booking and its is complete great for the money!. and I have been shopping with 123Pets, Gingr, MoeGo and Pawfinity which which was much higher in price and some didn't even have Forms template in them.. Very useful might i add.

CONS

The only problem i see at this time is Groomsoft doesn't have online booking :(.. for most of us groomers we need this its important!

Reason for choosing Groomsoft

I will tell you that rep is an amazing customer service representative extremely quick to address an issue or to just help you learn how it works he has a lot of patients. This is the reason i'm upgrading and staying with Groomsoft! If you don't have good customer services people just leave and go somewhere else. !

Groomsoft is 4 stars!!!

Immediate reminders without having to do anything but put the appointment on the calendar. Picture of dogs are incorporated in the client's information.

PROS

It is easy to use but even more importantly, customer servi ce is AMAZING!!! They answer questions quickly and help you in any way possible. I am extremely impressed and so happy I switched from another software that was expensive and I couldn't use half of it.

CONS

I wish it could be integrated with the google calendar so I didn't have to do things twice. Eventually we may use the calendar by itself but right now we are set in our ways with Google.

Reason for choosing Groomsoft

Cost, maps for mobile, ease of program, all information in one spot

Reasons for switching to Groomsoft

Spending too much on a program that wasn't helping me.

New Customer - in Trial Status

It was somewhat puzzling when I first started using the program. Where I thought the answers would be, was not correct. A phone call cleared up my problems. [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. went and is going beyond what was expected of a Grooming software support person would do. He fixed my formatting problem with my receipt printer, and now is importing my data into the software. Very impressive!

PROS

The components are what we need. I took a little while to get used to the layout, but it does make sense now.

CONS

Haven't found anything yet.

Reason for choosing Groomsoft

After wading through about 30+ grooming software, features and price, GroomSoft was the only one I wanted to try.

Reasons for switching to Groomsoft

Sold old business, going to just my wife grooming. Sorry, but too many groomers are just a problem.

Excellent tool for your business

It has been really good using for this 5 years groomsoft. It helps my business to be very organized in terms of calendar and expenses

PROS

I really like the easy way you can use the software and the flexibility of access you can log in on your mobile device or on your desk computer.

CONS

Sometimes the clients can be duplicated when they book online

Reason for choosing Groomsoft

Very easy to use with lots of features and not as expensive as the others.

I am very happy with Groomsoft. It has taken me about 5 years to try out others, including that one which seems to be number one. The customer service is great and really helpful. It is cheaper than others but I have the most basic one and it ticks almost all my needs.

PROS

It looks good and has many features needed for a dog groomer. Bookings, mailings and spots to put in photos, documents, tick the boxes where vaccinations belong. It also reminds yourself and your clients if the vaccinations are going out of date. Very helpful indeed. Customer service is great and speedy! They respond to emails and facebook comments too. Reminders are sent out automatically which is great.

CONS

There are a few things missing that is a wee bug bear. No link to facebook bookings or google calendar, nor is there an android app. We get around the app issue by keeping a shortcut of the webpage, but it's not easy to navigate around. I still use either FB or Google calendar to book if I am away from my pc, so some bridge between these and Groomsoft would help. I also wish there was an inventory spot.

Reason for choosing Groomsoft

It was cheaper and had most of what I needed and wanted.

Reasons for switching to Groomsoft

123Pet was difficult to navigate around. The font size was either 4pt and totally illegible, or if made bigger didn't fit all the text in the boxes. The customer service was "watch a video" and not very helpful. The initial cost was steep, then it didn't have the features I needed and basically I wasn't willing to pay that much for something I disliked using after 5 years.

Ease of use

I have had an overall positive experience with Groomsoft. The prices have been reasonable in comparison to other subscription prices. I would highly recommended to anyone that is running a grooming business. It is paperless, a good place to store grooming instructions, and record pass grooms comments. As well as, incidents and customer complaints to avoid future issues with clients. It allows you to set appointments anywhere (mobile phone, home computer, etc). It is a good place to keep track of finances. It easy to see at a glance from month to month and year to year how well the business is doing. In the past, if I had a problem it was easy to get someone from customer support on the phone to walk me through my issues.

PROS

I have been using Groomsoft for over over three years. It is easy to use and train employees to use. It allows us to keep track of customers, prices, pass and present groom instructions, incidents, and comments.

CONS

Can be confusing to set recurring appointments. Especially when a customer ask for their next appointment. If a customer cancels or changes a recurring appointment it is hard to reset the appointments or restart the appointments from that time on.

Great Program!

Overall we have been very happy with Groomsoft. I love that you take suggestions and upgrade it regularly

PROS

The ability to make appointments anywhere and any time. I can easily see what is booked for which groomer at a glance. It really is very easy to use once you learn it. The customer service, as rarely as Ive used it, is fantastic and fast.

CONS

It takes a little while to figure out all the ins and outs. I feel like some things are a little repetitive and others are not as useful as they could be. I love the idea of the waiting list but am finding that if i move an appointment as opposed to creating a new one, it stays on the waiting list. I also would love to change the time that the reminder texts go out and haven't been able to figure that out.

Vendor Response

Hi Katie, Thank you for the great review. :-) A team member from support will be emailing you so we can better understand your experience while using the waiting list and help answer your question about changing the appointment reminder times. The Groomsoft Team

Groomsoft for Small Grooming Salon

It is fairly easy to use. Quite basic but for a small business it is adequate. The customer service is very good and Representative is VERY quick to reply when contacted.

PROS

Quite customizable, I can keep a lot of information on the client and pet, as well as unlimited photos and information about each groom on each client's pet. I also like that I can enter the services/fees and have it all calculated for me, including separating out tips and I think the "reports" are very good.

CONS

1) I really dislike not being able to put just a birth year in for a cat. Many clients do not know when their cats were born as not all are purebred...many are from shelters. I have to skip that entry and put a birth year in the "notes" and then I am unable to quickly glance at the cat's age on future visits - I have to look at the date of their first visit and calculate from the year to the present to see their age. I would like to be able to put: - day/month/year OR month/year OR year and have it automatically show me their age each time I enter a new appointment.

We are a team of 4 groomers and we all are very satisfied on how easily we can set up appointments keep grooming notes, and super easy access to read previous grooming notes, upload pictures of doggies, running commission and tips reports, tender a transaction is wow!! its all there.!!

CONS

The only thing missing is online booking feature. I use square appointments and its a pain updating appointments to groomsoft. When will it be available?

Love this iCloud appointment service

This software became available approximately 1.5 years after I started my business. Lifesaver! I was so tired of all the laborious record keeping I needed to do on calendars, spread sheets - Keeping handwritten grooming notes on cards etc. I always felt things were incomplete. Groomsoft saved my sanity and I gained confidence. Always a glance away is the schedule and details needed for grooming my furry clients.

PROS

It is easy to use and can be accessed through all of my smart devices as well as the desktop computer. Away from the grooming shop, no problem I can set appointments on the fly if I receive texts or phone calls from clients.

CONS

Can not say there's any thing I feel negative about.

Great Software

My overall experience with Groomsoft is great, however, I think it is funny that the sex of the pet changed to gender as a selection instead of male or female. None of the dogs I have groomed have told me they feel like a different sex than they were born. That's just a human thing. It's silly that gender is a selection for a pet. Ha ha.

I have wanted to make a note in a client’s appointment that only applies to that day – rather than having to go through a more formal process of entering it under client notes or pet notes. This would be a handy addition to the appointment scheduler.
