Phorest

All-in-one salon and clinic management software with booking, marketing, and POS.

Phorest is a cloud-based salon and aesthetic-clinic management platform aimed at growing, staffed businesses rather than solo operators. It combines online booking and appointment scheduling with a client CRM, digital consultation forms, point of sale and payments, and a marketing suite covering SMS and email campaigns and loyalty — all designed to run a multi-chair, and often multi-location, operation from one system.

Standout areas include staff management and rostering, inventory and stock tracking, and reporting and analytics, plus a branded booking app and a PhorestGuest self-check-in experience for clients. The PhorestGo mobile app lets owners and staff manage the business on iOS and Android. The overall pitch is client retention and rebooking for hair salons, beauty salons, barbershops, spas, and medi-aesthetic clinics.

Pricing is custom and quote-based — there is no published entry price and no free plan; you book a demo to get a tailored package, typically scaled to staff count and location. Phorest fits established salons and clinics with three or more staff that want a comprehensive, retention-focused platform and are ready to commit to onboarding rather than self-serve a simple booking link.
