Salon software Australia

Salon software for Australian booking, calendar and SMS workflows.

BeautiDesk gives appointment-based salons a branded booking page, service menu, staff calendar, client records and SMS-ready workflows across desktop and mobile devices.

Quick answer

BeautiDesk gives Australian salon owners a branded online booking page and a workspace for staff calendars, client records and appointment status. Clients book in a browser; reception and staff manage the day from the web workspace or supported mobile apps.

Starter costs AUD $49.99 per month for 1 studio, up to 3 staff, 300 bookings and 50 monthly SMS credits for Australian mobile numbers. Start with a 14-day no-card trial and 20 trial SMS credits. See Starter limits and costs →

Salon computer software for the front desk

Use BeautiDesk from a desktop browser to review bookings, customer details, staff availability, service menus and appointment status in one merchant workspace.

Mobile workspace for owners and staff

Owners and staff can use BeautiDesk across web, iPhone, iPad and Android, so appointment information is not tied to one reception computer.

Booking system before heavy admin

Many salons first need clear online booking, calendar visibility, client records and SMS reminders. BeautiDesk focuses on those operational basics before adding unnecessary complexity.

Australian SMS reminder setup

  • Customer confirmation SMS.
  • Reminder SMS before appointments.
  • YES/NO reply status when enabled.
  • Optional owner SMS alerts for new bookings.

Built for appointment-based beauty work

  • Nail salons with variable service duration and technician preference.
  • Hair studios that need stylist calendars and appointment history.
  • Lash and brow studios with repeat clients and reminder needs.
  • Beauty and wellness rooms that want branded booking instead of marketplace dependence.

Merchant-owned instead of marketplace-led

BeautiDesk keeps the booking page and client relationship around the salon. That matters for salons that want customers to remember the studio, not the marketplace where the appointment happened.

Clear boundaries

BeautiDesk is not positioned as payroll software or a full enterprise POS replacement. It is strongest as the salon's booking, calendar, client-record and SMS workflow layer across web and mobile devices.

Local workflow details that matter

Australian salons often need clear mobile-number handling, straightforward staff access and a booking page that works outside business hours. BeautiDesk keeps SMS-ready reminders, owner alerts and appointment status close to the calendar so staff can follow the day without switching between unrelated tools.

What to test during the trial

  • Can a new customer complete a booking without calling?
  • Can staff understand the day from the workspace?
  • Are client notes and booking history easy to review?
  • Does the booking page feel like the salon's own brand?
  • Can SMS workflows support the salon's reminder process?

Salon software Australia FAQ

What types of salons can use BeautiDesk?

BeautiDesk is designed for Australian appointment-based beauty salons, nail studios, hair studios, lash and brow bars, wellness rooms and med spas.

What should Australian salons compare first?

Australian salons should first compare the booking flow, staff calendar, client records, SMS reminder support, device access, setup effort and whether the booking page belongs to the salon or a marketplace.

Can BeautiDesk replace a salon appointment book?

Yes. Salons can move routine appointments into a live booking workspace while still creating and updating appointments manually when staff take calls.

Does BeautiDesk include payroll?

No. BeautiDesk focuses on online booking, staff calendar operations, client records and SMS workflows. Salons that need payroll should pair BeautiDesk with a payroll system.

Is BeautiDesk salon computer software or a mobile app?

BeautiDesk works as a web workspace for desktop use and has iPhone, iPad and Android workspace experiences for owners and staff.

How much is BeautiDesk salon software in Australia?

The Starter plan costs AUD $49.99 per month for 1 studio, up to 3 staff, 300 bookings per month and 50 monthly SMS credits for Australian mobile numbers. Larger plans cover higher staff and booking needs. Review the current plan limits before subscribing.

Can customers book without installing an app?

Yes. Customers use the salon’s branded booking link in a browser to choose a service, staff member and available time. Owners and staff manage the appointment in the BeautiDesk workspace.

What should I check before switching from another salon system?

Test your service menu, staff availability, booking flow and upcoming appointment handling first. Keep your original exports and ask support to confirm coverage before transferring client or historical appointment records. Automatic full migration is not promised.

Are trial SMS credits the same as the paid plan allowance?

No. The 14-day no-card trial includes 20 trial SMS credits. A paid Starter subscription includes 50 SMS credits per month. SMS features are intended for Australian mobile numbers and depend on the workspace settings and available credits.
