Before you choose Slick

The diary looks simple. The cost can grow with every column.

Slick can suit a booking-led business, but these published plan details matter when the team and workflow become more demanding.

01

Every extra diary column adds cost

Essential is published at £20 plus VAT for one column, then £12 for each additional column. Advanced is £35, then £18 for each additional column.

02

Useful messaging depends on the plan

Digital appointment cards are listed at £6 plus VAT per column on Essential, while they are included with Advanced and Supercharged.

03

A feature tick does not prove operational depth

Ask Slick to demonstrate your real consultation, stock ordering, permissions, multi-location reporting and checkout workflow, not simply show that a feature exists.

Talk to Us About Switching from Slick

A clear recommendation

Why switch from Slick to Salon Manager?

When might Slick suit your business?

A sole trader seeking a simple one-column booking setup may compare Slick’s Essential plan. A growing business should calculate additional columns, plan restrictions, setup, appointment cards, payments and the depth required across consultations, stock, reporting, permissions and multiple locations.

Before choosing, require a written breakdown of every recurring, transaction and one-off cost.

Why should you choose Salon Manager?

Salon Manager is the better long-term operational choice when the diary must connect to consultation forms, POS, CRM, vouchers, stock, reporting, colleges or multi-location control rather than remain primarily booking-led.
