Booking Software for Small Business: Which One Is Worth It?

Hey everyone!

I've been running a small salon for about two years now, and managing appointments through phone calls and a basic calendar is becoming a nightmare. I keep missing calls, double booking clients, and wasting hours on manual scheduling every week.

I've heard a lot about booking software but honestly don't know where to start.

What features should I prioritize: online self booking, payment integration, reminders, or staff management? Are there affordable options that don't require a huge learning curve?

Would love to hear what's actually working for fellow small business owners.
