Customer Reviews
Absolutely LOVE this App!!!
I have been using this app for close to 2 years and have been VERY Pleased. Yes, sometimes there have been glitches but they took care of them in a short period of time. When I sent a email they always responded quickly and soon all was took care of. I can say that in the 2 years I have only had a couple of issues.
This last issue being, I had the 2 generation ipod touch and it was (Apple )that was no longer supporting the older versions. I now have the iPhone 4s so hopefully all will work for a long time....
I really love this app and my clients do too. They love the email reminders and receipts . Thank you for this Wonderful app! My bookkeeping is so much easier too! I love how I can keep up with my inventory of products and all of the Color formulations. When I give a perm I store it in the notes to refer back to.
I could go on & on! So if any one is on the fence about if they should get this app. I say DO. You just have to use it and learn all the things it does & it does it All !
Annoyed
This app was really going to be a big help to me. I was very excited to get my new iPhone and have my app on my iPad and phone. Nothing transferred and when I called apple support they informed me that this app was no longer on the app store. There needs to be a point of contact other than email. If I pay a hundred bucks for an app it better be legit. I feel like this is a shady company. Fix your issues please and give us a stinking phone number for support!
Worth every penny!
I have been using this app for well over two years now. It is fabulous and makes fast work of formulating color and finalizing transactions. I love it. They just keep making it better as time goes on.
