I've been considering adding gift vouchers to my aesthetics clinic and I've heard Shedul has a built-in voucher feature. Has anyone actually used it? Does it work well? Can clients buy them directly from the booking page or do you have to set up something separate? Would love to hear from anyone who's tried it.

I tested Square Appointments and Setmore side by side for a month. Square Appointments won on price, Setmore won on features. For a solo aesthetics clinic just starting out, Square Appointments's free plan is hard to argue with. You can always switch later once you know exactly what you need.

I was asking myself this a year ago. Best decision I ever made was just picking one and starting. Shedul has a free plan that's genuinely functional. Start there, learn the system, then upgrade when you actually need the paid features. Don't let the choice paralysis stop you from just getting on with it.

I've used Treatwell for 18 months and the support is hit and miss if I'm honest. Response times are slow. But the product itself is solid and I rarely need support because once it's set up it just works. I'd still recommend it — just don't rely on them for urgent help.

I've been using BookPin for 18 months and honestly I'd recommend it for a small nail studio. The setup took me about half a day but once it's done it just runs. Clients get automatic reminders, you can take deposits, and the calendar view is really clear. Give the free trial a go — you'll know within a week if it works for you.
