| Point of sale | POS supports services, retail, tips, split payments, gift cards, packages and memberships, with Square and Stripe payment options. | The point of sale supports check-in and check-out, multiple payment methods, bar-coded items, discounts, family checkout, and next-appointment booking. |
| Purpose | Salon Manager combines appointments, payments, staff schedules, and client history for salon owners. | Spa/Salon Manager brings appointments, sales, inventory, staff, and client records together for spa and salon management. |
It suits independent stylists, boutique salons, spas and wellness businesses, and multi-location operators seeking scheduling, client records, payments, and staff tools. For med spas, it covers front-of-house operations; clinical records should remain in an EMR.
Spa/Salon Manager suits spa and salon businesses that need appointment, client, sales, inventory, and payroll tools together. Cloud plans suit browser-based access, while the installed version is for Windows.
