## Reviews

### "Keeps us organized and looking on top of our game." — 4.0/5

> **Laura** | *20 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use and the text and email reminders it sends out make it worth the cost. Truly those reminders cut down on no shows by over 95%
> 
> **Cons**: On rare occasions the systems goes down or we have to do an unexpected update so it works again. Both are short lived inconveniences.
> 
> Even with its slight flaws, we won’t give it up. Tried others systems when we got frustrated in years past but came back to DaySmart.

### "A must have" — 5.0/5

> **Kiana** | *17 February 2026* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really enjoy how easy and user friendly it is. The desktop version vs the app is also very comparable to each other. DaySmart also has all of the features I need for my daily scheduling, checking customers out, and its easy to keep my formulas and any client notes.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't dislike anything in particular, I do just hate when the servers are down and you cannot access anything. I understand that its out of anyone's control, however. It's just more of a nuisance.
> 
> I really enjoy DaySmart Salon. I appreciate all the efforts that have gone into this program to make such a wonderful experience. I do think it takes a small bit to get adjusted to, but once you understand where everything is and how to do what you want it to do, you will have no issues or problems. I wouldn't consider switching at all. You definitely get what you pay for and more. Customer service is also very easy to get ahold of, which is a rarity these days.

### "Go with different software\!" — 2.0/5

> **Amy** | *10 March 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software was easy to use, has a lot of features. We used daysmart for 5yrs.
> 
> **Cons**: CUSTOMER SERVICE\! We stopped using daysmart because of the customer service. They also do not have a way to track back bar usage (business use of products) and it would randomly change our inventory and tickets.
> 
> We loved using daysmart until about a year ago, the software started glitching out on us and changing ticket prices and inventory quantities, so we decided to cancel. After cancelling we didnt get all of our data we needed and the only way to retrieve it was to open the account back up. We were told once the account was reactivated we could pay for the lowest subscription at $60. That was a lie they charged our bank another $300 for the month just so we could get our data.

### "The invisible engine behind our salon." — 5.0/5

> **Roy** | *13 March 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The platform offers an incredible range of features, and what we appreciate most is that the DaySmart team continues to evolve the software. They are receptive to feedback and open to suggestions, which is something we truly value as a growing business operating multiple locations.
> 
> **Cons**: One small area for improvement would be the pricing structure for marketing text messages. Particularly for salons that communicate frequently with clients. For high-volume businesses like ours, the text message counts can add up quickly.
> 
> Working with DaySmart Salon has truly transformed the way we operate our business. As a high-volume salon with three locations, efficiency, organization, and reliability are not just important— they are essential. DaySmart provides exactly that, with a platform that feels both powerful and beautifully simple to use.&#10;&#10;The interface is incredibly intuitive and user-friendly, allowing our team to navigate scheduling, client management, and transactions with ease. Even during our busiest days, the system keeps everything flowing seamlessly, giving us the ability to focus on what matters most which is our clients and the quality of service we provide.&#10;&#10;What stands out most is how well DaySmart supports a multi-location business. Being able to manage appointments, client profiles, and reporting across all three salons in one cohesive system has brought a level of clarity and organization that is invaluable in a fast-paced environment like ours.&#10;&#10;Their technical support is exceptional. The team is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping businesses succeed. Whenever we have questions or need guidance, they are there with thoughtful solutions and a willingness to assist.&#10;&#10;Another aspect we deeply appreciate is that DaySmart is a company that listens. The platform already offers an incredible range of features, yet they remain open to suggestions and feedback, constantly improving the software to make operations even more seamless for businesses of all kinds.&#10;&#10;For us, DaySmart isn’t just scheduling software — it has become the backbone of how we manage and grow our salons. Thoughtfully designed, dependable, and continuously evolving, it is a tool we rely on every day.
