Best point of sale system

Exceptional.
There hardly ever is an issue with the app, but when there is, the turnaround on client service enquiry is just a little slow. Happy none the less.

Pros

I have worked with many POS systems and this is by far my favorite one. The fact that I can manage everything from my phone is a massive bonus! Easy to use and the developers have really thought of every aspect of running a beaty business. Thank you Fresha!

Cons

The fact that I cannot copy a voucher number onto my phone from the 'voucher purchased' list to paste at checkout when a voucher number is asked. It used to be like this in the beginning but was changed with the latest updates. Now I have to write down the number before I can check out a client on my phone.

Fuss Free version

It is an easy to use system once you get your head around it, has many free features that allow for the smooth running of our salon. Easy product orders and input of stock, good client information features. Would definitely recommend.

Pros

The free version is easy to use and not too limiting. Almost as good as a paid system

Cons

Hard to navigate to notes etc.
lots of clicks to get to where you need to go.

DO NOT USE FRESHA

Pros

Fresha is terrible! They have terrible customer service. No phone number to ring. Terrible lags in getting back to support emails. Hidden fees. It is not user friendly
I have switched to timely and I am so happy. They have a number, very friendly and platform very user friendly.

Cons

Everything but mainly the staff and their customer support team.

Fresha - free version review

I use the free version which means little contact with the fresha team. Just the odd email here and there offering assistance if needed. I like it this way

Pros

That it has a free version with enough of the capability

Cons

The new updates that then cost.

The thing that would make fresha perform better would be a place where you can store client service chemical history. It would be so helpfull to have this information be able to be noted on the clients file. To print this off or to have a stylist app that could be used for consultations that updates the clients file would be next level!!

Alternatives Considered

Timely

Reasons for Choosing Fresha

Salon Ezy although had all the features needed and was free to us. It was cluncky and not up to date

Reasons for Switching to Fresha

It was because there was a free version available

Easy to use

The staff are all really helpful, the system is reliable and it’s really easy to use.

Pros

ease of use, online booking features and accessibility.

Cons

Most of the time the response on email for urgent issues is quick but it is annoying not having a support line to ring.
