Hey everyone,

How often do you update your POS?

I'm running a salon in Chicago, IL and looking for advice. We currently have been looking at different options. Any recommendations or experiences to share?

Thanks in advance!

The package deals is definitely worth the extra cost IMO.

Cost us about $130/month all in. Worth it.

Make sure you're on the latest version. That fixed it for us.

Check out the client management setting, that might help.
