### "Phorest Pheedback :)" — 4.0/5

> **Michelle** | *August 14, 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to manage my schedule from my phone, and to check reports from my phone.  I also like the ability to check my service/retail sales etc from my phone in real time.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes when using a laptop or desktop computer, it takes a long time before the reports open, or before I can see the client reviews.  Also the waiting list feature should not be specific to a certain date or time.
> 
> I think it makes all the staff more conscious of the revenue they are bringing in and how close they are to meeting their goals.
