About Vagaro
Vagaro is a web-based solution for salon and fitness center owners to promote their services and connect with customers through ‘Vagaro.Com’ website and Vagaro’s mobile app. It is a B2C platform wherein salons, spa and studios can register and create a profile, advertise their brand, promote new events and book appointments/classes with customers.
With Vagaro, business owners can create a customized website with complete information about their venue, staff bios, services they offer and their working hours. Salons can display which booking slots are available for the day, week or month and allow customers to book an appointment at a time that's convenient to them. Vagaro allows users to send text and email notifications to customers, confirming the appointment, then send alerts and reminders for appointments booked.
Users can build a customer database by importing contacts from an excel or .csv file or pulling contacts directly from their mobile. Customers can post feedback on a Salon's Vagaoro page, for them to view. Salon owners can also manage internal activities such as generating sales & service reports, monitoring business progress with real time analytics, clock-in & clock-out, staff attendance, and map with payroll service.
Vagaro solution offers an integrated point of sale (POS) feature to sell gift certificates, products or packages to customers online and via mobile. Currently, Vagaro offers its services across Australia, Canada, United Kingdom and USA.

Good value for the price

Pros
I set this software up for a massage therapist shop. It was for an individual who needed to contract out 2 services, yoga and massage therapy. In order to do that, we had to buy 2 subscriptions what was sort of a pain. However, the ease of use of software was great. There's integration into yelp and facebook. It integrates right into your google calendar which is super important for people that are really busy. Also its way cheaper than mind body so that's a bonus.
They provide everything you need in order to setup a successful massage shop or whatever in fitness you are doing. They even take credit card for services. If you swipe it on your phone in the mobile app, it will ask you for a tip. On ipad, it doesn't.
Also vagaro allows you to rebook an appointment on the spot which I found very convenient for rebookings.
Cons
It was really hard to setup multiple services within the shop. I had to setup yoga and massage under 2 different employees but the same name, with 2 different google calendars. It was really messy. It works best when you have employees and can set them up under services they provide, if your solo and provide more than 1 service that aren't related, its hard.

My experience with Vagaro has been positive overall It is like a hair stylist created this software knowing what was missing in our industry.
Pros
I like the convince and ease of having this on my phone and my computer. I always have my work schedule with me and can easily access all my client notes and past appts on the go. Its aesthetically pleasing and easy to use. I can easily make adjustments in real time that are reflected immediately.
Cons
I think there needs to be a better way to create changes in an employees schedule. Something that would allow you to switch up their availability moving forward without it changing past dates. For example: If Molly is working Mondays thru Fridays during the school year but only Tuesdays and Thursdays in the summer I would like to be able to do that instead of having to create custom schedules for each day.

Pros
Its easy, easy for clients as well. I love all the forms options, I think its ridiculous that. Have to pay $10 a month just to have the cancellation policy and card on file. This is a booking app, it should come with.
Cons
a lot of the extra features should not be that much money. Especially the cancellation one, that's ridiculous. $10 to have a card on file while I already pay $30 for the app. The forms sure, but to just obtain a card is obnoxious.
