What Users Say: (From GetApp)
“I enjoyed the service. I don’t enjoy the fact that people that haven’t received the service are still allowed to review as long as they have booked an appointment. So even if someone’s appointment is canceled they are still allowed to leave a review which led to receiving bad reviews from people that were attacking my business. Ultimately that led me to switch to another platform.”
My overall experience is ok, but it doesn’t allow me to add important info about services. My clients are tipping me less because of the booking fees.
Pros
It is user friendly and I am able to set up my services easy with pricing, time frame, and description.
Cons
My clients are complaining about all of the fees that they are being charged and I am getting the backlash.
Style Seat has been the best software for finding me clients. So many people say they found me on style seat!
Pros
I got so many clients from style seat in the first few days of me using it. I noticed, after about a week though, the clients did start to slow down.
Cons
The only thing I really did like was the marketing.
