Which scheduling software is the one for you – Setmore or Fresha?
Picking the right scheduling software is a really important decision for your business. If you’re undecided then this is for you. Here, we spotlight the key differences between Setmore and Fresha and drop another contender into the mix – Pabau.
Setmore is an online scheduling platform that will enable you to connect with your customers. It’s designed to work for various industries – education, legal, financial services, and more – as well as businesses such as hair salons, spas, and massage therapists. You can choose between free and paid plans and manage your appointments through their calendar.
Fresha is a subscription-free model for the beauty and wellness industry.
However, while it is technically ‘free’, they charge a commission fee on every new client booking that comes through the Fresha marketplace, which can quickly become expensive. In their own words, Fresha helps businesses boost sales and attract new clients via online bookings through Google search, Facebook and Instagram.
Pabau is an all-in-one clinic management software specifically designed for medi aesthetic clinics. With clients all over the world, Pabau provides everything clinics need to reduce time spent on admin, improve the patient experience, and attract new customers. Because it’s purpose-built for med spas, it has key features that this client base will find particularly valuable.
The thing that stood out about [Pabau] was that it did everything. Unfortunately, I can’t get it to sweep the floors. But do you know what? It nearly does everything else.
Emma Beider, Owner / DirectorKingswood Aesthetics
The best software understands you, your business, and your challenges. Pabau has been built to meet the needs of medi aesthetic operators, not hair or beauty salons. That’s why it has features that have been created specifically for this sector, such as automated pre-care and aftercare emails, electronic medical records (EMR), before and after photos, injection plotting, customizable forms, and so on. At Pabau, we get you.
Setmore markets itself as an online scheduling platform. If you simply need a tool to help you schedule appointments for your business, then Setmore has everything you need. But if you want to do more than the basics, Pabau might be a better fit. There’s limited customization in Setmore. You can’t book packages, only individual services. You can’t set up gift cards to reward your clients. You can’t send emails without integrating a different tool. And so on. With Pabau you have everything you need to run and grow your business, in one place.
Clinics need to collect a LOT of documentation before an appointment, right? With Pabau, you don’t have to break a sweat trying to remember everything. You can simply use our app to ensure you have up-to-date health records, signed medical consents, and photos. Not every provider has this functionality, but we know how needed by med spa practitioners. Not only does it protect the client, it also protects your business.
Booking an appointment online is one of the first touchpoints a client has with your business. But Fresha sends clients to their website to book, where your clinic is pitched alongside the competition - potentially losing you sales. Meanwhile, your branding is minimised. In Pabau, it’s a completely different experience. You create the end-to-end experience to fit with the look and feel of your brand. The client can book an appointment directly from your website - and there are no hidden fees or costs. Every online booking is money in your pocket.
Getting new clients booking appointments with you should be something to celebrate - it means that your reputation is growing and you’re doing an excellent job, right? That’s why, with Pabau, you won’t be stung with commission charges for new clients. You also won’t have to read the fine print about what constitutes a new customer. The money you earn through online bookings goes straight to you, every single time.
“After 16 years of using about 20 different client management software systems, this is the only one I can honestly say does it all, and does it all very well.”
Roxanne Merchant,
Head of Operations, Juvea Medical
“Pabau is feature-rich, allowing us functionality to grow as our business needs grow, and at the same time quite intuitive to use. Competing software offerings can’t compete!”
Daniel, Doctor,
G2 review
“I’ve been in business for almost nine years. I’ve tried a lot of different software, but I was always missing some features. This software has everything that saves my time, keeps my records and medical forms in one place, and is easy to use.”
