When we created Rosy Salon Software, we thought of everything salon owners would need—we wanted to give salon owners and stylists the ability to respond fully to client’s needs, with the ability to organize, schedule, remind, and follow up on appointments with ease and minimal effort. Our program is meant to save you time, effort, and be as convenient as possible. In short, we wanted to help you be responsive.
Which leads us to our point—a quick programing term you may or may not know—”responsiveness.” If a website is responsive, it means that the design adapts to your screen size. You have been on sites that aren’t responsive—you have to zoom in, scroll around the screen, and the buttons and navigation is putzy, making you mad at your big, stupid thumbs. A responsive design recognizes the device you are using—desktop, tablet, phone, and changes what it shows you based on your screen size. The functionality stands. It responds to your needs (just as you are attempting to do for your customers). We have built Rosy to respond to your needs—it is easy to use from any device.
We’ve had customers ask us lately if we will be releasing an app. Apps seem like they will be convenient, easy. But we may be the first people to say, “There’s not an app for that.” We considered an app, but then we looked at how it would help or supplement Rosy. And the answer? Since the system is fully responsive and built so well, it would not add anything except a few downsides—mobile apps take up space on your phone, and they require constant updates to get rid of bugs and keep up with new phone releases. There isn’t an app, because Rosy is already a mobile web app that you can update from any device.
Another important Rosy perk that would only be duplicated with an app—we are a Cloud-based software. This means all information is stored conveniently on the Cloud, and the information can be accessed and organized from any device. In fact, we were the first cloud-based software designed for salons and spas. Salon owners and staff can access their schedules from anywhere, which gives our customers all of the convenience of a mobile web app—everything can be done easily on the go.

If you would like an app just so that the software is easy to get to, likely your device will allow you to bookmark Rosy so you can add an icon on your home screen. (Here is a tutorial for how to do this on almost any device). That way it will look just like all your other apps, and it will be the same, convenient Rosy you are used to—where you can schedule appointments and organize your salon easily wherever you are.
Allow us to get a little mother-y in our conclusion here—you don’t need an app, you only want one. And we’re here to tell you that you don’t even actually want one—save that valuable space on your phone and tablet for photos and videos of your kids and pets, or for the next Angry Birds or Candy Crush, and spare yourself the constant updates. We’re so glad to respond to your needs in the ultimate way—with a fully responsive website and software meant to make everything easier for you!
