Re: What is recommend if I don't have software?

Salon Touch has worked great for us for over 10 years. The only software that ever crashed left us hanging was Helios. That was years ago, they may be great now, just software shy.

See which of these offers the eaisiest interface with what you are doing.

Cheers!

I did not like the Helios demo at all!!! I had looked at Sun Touch is it the same thing as salon touch? I saw both programs on the website is why I ask.

They do a spa type of software also. SunTouch should be best for you.

Hi,

Saw your post. I strongly recommend that you get TANPLAN, an indespensible financial tool for newbies or experienced tanning salon oners. I have used the product myself and recommend it to all TanTalk members.

Here's the link to the TANPLAN website:

Good luck to you on your new salon.

Leo

Re: What is recommend if I don't have software?

I have decided to go with TanTrack, but I am having trouble getting it to recognize my timer/beds. All the timer info is correct, but it just keeps searching for bed information. Can anyone help me with this?!?!?

OK - now this is interesting. We will only have 5 beds and technique is indeed appointment book + 1 card per customer, no software.

I was inclined to put software in, but maybe I can get away without it?

The seller says she did not put software in because of minute sharing, the software would not allow multiple tans on same package in a 24 hr period.

I can't imagine that the modern packages would not allow you to change that?
