There is rarely a business software or tool that is one-size-fits-all.
As a spa coach, I’m a big advocate for utilizing software alongside your systems in your spa because it can help streamline your administrative processes and save you loads of time and money.
The question I’m asked the most when it comes to spa software options is “Which spa scheduling software do you recommend we purchase?”
That’s a loaded question because no two spas are the same.
Instead, I’m sharing 4 spa scheduling software (in no typical order) so you can make the best-informed decision on the best scheduling software for your spa business.
1. Mangomint
Mangomint is a company with a mission to make salon and spa software invisible.
Inside Mangomint’s software, you’ll be able to manage and automate day-to-day operations while enhancing your client’s booking experience.

One more thing to consider…
You may be eager to just pick one that easily books and takes payments, but I encourage you to really sit down and do your research.
All four of the above options show that spa software is much more than a booking system. There is so much room for tech to automate minuscule tasks from your daily routine that your software becomes your new best friend.
My goal is to introduce you to as many options as possible so that you can easily listen, review, and make an informed decision.
