Orbis Salon
Orbis Salon is booking and business-management software for salons, clinics, therapists, and other appointment-led businesses. It brings together websites, multi-service booking, customer accounts, payments, forms, treatment records, photos, and reporting. Core and Pro include a bespoke multi-page website on the customer's domain and a portal where customers can manage accounts, appointments, forms, and saved payment methods. Orbis Salon Manager is available through app stores and as a Mac download, with browser access also available. Website integrations include booking systems, Google Business Profile, Google Analytics, Search Console, WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace. Payments can be processed through Orbis Pay, Stripe Connect, or another supported provider; Orbis says it does not store raw card security codes.
