Nail salon scheduling software

• keyboard_arrow_downHow is Anolla’s nail salon booking software different from regular online schedules?
  Standard booking calendars only let you write down appointment times; Anolla, however, is a complete all-in-one nail salon booking and workflow platform that helps significantly increase manicure and pedicure revenue. Intelligent technician schedule management, a client database (CRM) and automated communication come together in a single system purpose-built for nail salons. Unlike static calendars, Anolla uses AI to optimize nail service bookings and reduce cancellations. The platform supports dynamic pricing for different treatments such as gel polish, acrylic nails, maintenance and combo services. Anolla lets you manage hourly nail treatments as well as multi-day trainings and salon rental days in parallel in one smart nail salon calendar.
• keyboard_arrow_downDoes Anolla support hourly nail treatments and multi-day nail trainings or salon rentals at the same time?
  Yes, this is one of the most important competitive advantages of Anolla as nail salon booking software. Unlike many beauty booking systems, Anolla does not force you to choose only hourly manicure slots or only day-based packages. The platform simultaneously supports short gel polish and manicure/pedicure appointments, as well as multi-hour or multi-day nail courses, workshops and full salon rental days. It also makes it easy to manage variable-length services such as nail care depending on the amount of work, or combined manicure and pedicure packages. All nail technicians’ bookings are consolidated into a single central nail salon calendar and run smoothly together under one salon account. This makes Anolla an ideal solution for hybrid nail salons that offer nail services, trainings, rental stations and beauty studio services at the same time.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does the Anolla AI assistant reduce administrative workload and human errors in nail salons?
  Anolla’s automated AI customer support assistant works 24/7 for nail salons, answering recurring manicure and pedicure client questions without administrator involvement. The virtual assistant automatically resolves up to 79.3%¹ of standard booking inquiries, such as rescheduling, cancellations, choosing the nail service or price information. It can also handle up to 52.4%¹ of first-line technical questions related to online booking and the client portal. This reduces the volume of phone calls, Messenger messages and emails for the salon administrator and nail technicians, and automated communication saves up to 39.3%¹ of administrative time. As a result, the nail salon’s daily administrative workload decreases, the risk of double bookings and wrongly entered times goes down, and human errors become minimal.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla's dynamic pricing help nail salons offer clients smartly optimized prices?
  Anolla’s dynamic pricing module automates a nail salon’s pricing strategy for manicures, pedicures, gel polish, nail extensions and maintenance services. The salon manager can create precise rules that adjust nail service prices based on time of day, weekday, season, campaign, nail technician level or loyalty status. All price changes are applied automatically according to the salon rules, so manicure and pedicure pricing is always under control without manual work. The system helps sell low-demand morning and midday slots at lower prices, filling technicians’ schedules more efficiently. During peak hours and weekends, Anolla enables higher prices to increase revenue for every booked manicure or pedicure slot. This increases salon occupancy, average basket size and overall profitability.
• keyboard_arrow_downIs Anolla suitable both for a solo nail technician and for a multi-location nail salon chain?
  Yes, the Anolla nail salon booking software is designed to scale from a single nail technician to multi-location nail and beauty salon chains. An individual nail technician can start with a powerful free plan and set up a professional online booking solution with no upfront investment. Managers of multi-location nail salons and beauty centers can use centralized administration to manage all salons, workstations and technicians from one system. The platform lets you add unlimited salon locations, nail technicians, administrators and managers, assigning them role- and salon-based permissions. Flexible access control (RBAC) ensures that each technician sees only their own schedule, the salon manager sees bookings for all technicians, and the owner has an overview of performance across the entire salon chain.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhich tools and payment solutions does Anolla’s nail salon booking software integrate with?
  Anolla is designed with an API-first architecture and supports key integrations for the day-to-day management of a nail salon. For processing online prepayments and booking fees, there is a built-in integration with Stripe’s payment solution, allowing you to collect payment for nail services already at the time of booking and reduce the risk of no-shows. To measure marketing and sales outcomes, the software supports analytics integrations such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel, so you can more accurately track nail appointment bookings generated by campaigns. Anolla enables raw data export to BI/ML tools to analyse nail technicians’ occupancy, the most popular manicure services and seasonal trends. In addition, the platform includes a powerful API that can connect the nail salon booking system with the existing website, beauty salon POS system or other software.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhat does the free package include for a nail salon, and what do the paid features add?
  Anolla’s free plan includes all the basic tools a nail technician or small nail salon needs to launch online booking and a smooth manicure/pedicure schedule. With the free plan you can create a booking page, manage your nail care calendar, add services like gel polish, extensions and maintenance, and accept online reservations with no signup fee. This solution is ideal for solo professionals and small nail teams that want a professional system at minimal cost. Paid features add unlimited automation, such as automatic SMS and email reminders, recurring booking workflows, more detailed reports and more advanced dynamic pricing rules. Larger salons also gain access to extra integrations, customer loyalty and membership programs, gift cards and a more powerful marketing module.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla’s usage-based pricing reduce business risk for a nail salon?
  Anolla’s usage-based pricing model is designed to reduce business risk for nail salon owners and independent nail technicians. The salon does not have to pay high fixed monthly fees for booking software during periods with lower booking volumes. Instead, costs scale in proportion to actual online bookings and usage – when fewer nail services are booked, the software cost is also lower. This pricing is perfect for nail salons with seasonal demand, where there are many manicure and pedicure clients in peak season but fewer in the low season. It is also an ideal solution for new nail technicians and beauty professionals who want to keep fixed costs minimal while still offering clients professional online booking.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow quickly can a nail salon start working with Anolla?
  Launching a nail salon or independent nail technician on Anolla usually takes only a few minutes, and the entire setup process is guided by a 24/7 context-aware AI assistant. Step-by-step instructions help you add nail salon services (gel polish, manicure, pedicure, nail extensions, maintenance), define technicians’ working hours, and publish the booking link on the salon’s website and social media. The platform’s ease of use is rated 5/5¹ on Capterra, and nine out of ten salon team members master the nail salon booking software’s core functionality in under 30 minutes¹. This means the salon can quickly move from phone bookings to smooth online booking.
