Why is Shortcuts a better choice than a competitor’s product?
Shortcuts
Enterprise
is the choice of the world’s top salon and spa
chains. The only true solution for large multi-site businesses, Shortcuts
Enterprise
offers the benefits of complete central administration and real-time
data synchronization that provides head offices with control from the top-down.
Complete with project
management and implementation guidelines, Shortcuts Enterprise is the
only
solution for the successful multi-site business.
Can I make central pricing decisions and apply them to all sites?Yes, Shortcuts Enterprise makes this type of process quick and easy. Drag-and-drop
pricing information from a spreadsheet into Enterprise and send it to your
sites at the touch of a button.
Can I centrally manage product updates and promotions?Yes, Shortcuts synchronizes information from the site down and then back up
again so that not only is head office receiving information, so are your
local sites.
How many sites can run on Enterprise? As
many as you’d
like! With robust and powerful technology, Shortcuts Enterprise truly grows with
your business. Sport Clips, of our progressive
Enterprise clients, have 300 and are still aggressively growing.
Does it manage loyalty programs? Shortcuts has a built-in loyalty program at the point-of-sale level, but recommend
our partner Givex for global loyalty programs as it offers functionality
such as checking points and account settings online.
How much does it cost? Shortcuts
works with all clients to fit budgets and satisfy requirements, however software
is
not an out-of-the box solution in this industry,
especially at
the multi-site level. For more a customized quote, please contact a Shortcuts
Salon & Spa Software Consultant.
Can I make appointments centrally? Because
appointments happen locally, rather than at the head office, Shortcuts recommends
making all
appointments at each location. Typically this is
easier for both clients and the local staff. For more complex systems
within the
business such as call centers, please contact a Shortcuts Salon & Spa
Software Consultant.
Can I use it for Franchisees? Definitely. Shortcuts Enterprise is easily customized to each business because
Shortcuts understands that each business model is unique. This adaptation
is part of the implementation, education and project management phases to
ensure that Enterprise is always working for your ever-changing and growing
business.
Can I have Internet access? In order to run Shortcuts Enterprise, you must have and use the Internet. Because
the nature of remote access relies on a mobile technology, Enterprise was
built to securely utilize the internet while still allowing the local, point-of-sale
sites to operate independently of the internet.
What types of reports are there? Shortcuts has over 100 reports at the Enterprise level including a variety
of consolidated and ranking reports so you can compare regions, states, counties,
cities or however your business is organized! For the advanced user, Shortcuts
offers business intelligence software that features three-dimensional reports
that allow the user to drill into information and formulate their own reports.
Does it link with a warehouse package? Shortcuts
has an entire Professional Services team dedicated to enhancing Shortcuts to
fit
the unique needs of clients. Contact your Shortcuts
Salon & Spa
Software Consultant for more information.
How many clients use the program? Shortcuts is the largest global provider for salon and spa software with 9500
clients around the world in 25 countries and approximately 40 major clients
using Enterprise across the globe.
Is Enterprise only for Hairdressing salons?Shortcuts
Salon & Spa Software was developed for the salon and spa industry
from day one and has never ventured off this path. Completely devoted to helping
the hair and beauty market succeed, Shortcuts develops software only for this
industry. While other businesses have ventured to use the software in their
own particular industry, Shortcuts only focuses on the hair and beauty industry’s
needs.
