Capabilities
ClinicSense vs. Vagaro
Both ClinicSense and Vagaro offer features to manage your client files. This includes online scheduling, email & SMS appointment reminders, invoicing and receipts, and financial reporting. The key differences lie between the ease of use, SOAP note functionality, and Vagaro’s marketplace feature. The table below summarizes the notable differences:
What You’ll Get With ClinicSense That You Won’t Get With Vagaro
Automated Referral Email Campaign
It’s no secret that word-of-mouth is the primary way that massage businesses grow. But sometimes it can be difficult to ask for a referral. ClinicSense offers an automated referral email campaign. After a client has had at least 3 appointments (when you can be sure they know and love you), ClinicSense will send them an email on your behalf asking them to refer a friend or family member who can also benefit from your services.
Google Review Booster
This is an automated email campaign that goes out to clients after their appointment to ask them to rate you on a scale of 1 to 10. If they rate you a 9 or 10, they are encouraged to leave a review on Google. If they rate you 1 to 8, they are encouraged to leave private feedback so you know how you can do better in the future for that client.MassageBook also has a reviews feature, but the client is encouraged to leave a review within the MassageBook platform, not on Google, so it will not help your Google ranking.
Fill Your Schedule With Availability Campaigns
ClinicSense will scan your calendar for availability and send an email to your clients with a summary of your availability and a prompt for them to book online. This simple reminder works wonders and ClinicSense is seeing each therapist that uses this feature earn an additional $960/mo.

Meet The Happy Customers Who
Chose ClinicSense over Vagaro
Makes my life so much easier/organized I recommend to all Massage therapists.
Customer service is very responsive to our questions. Best that I have ever dealt with for several companies that I have tried.
I am very happy with ClinicSense. The customer service is 100%. The product is well put together. I am very happy with their new feature of being able to create my own forms and attach as necessary to specific types of appointments.
What You’ll Get With Vagaro That You Won’t Get With ClinicSense
Selling Vagaro Branded Gift Certificates to Your Clients
Once entered into the software, Vagaro reserves the right to contact your clients to sell their branded gift certificates. If purchased by your clients, these gift certificates can be used at any clinic on the Vagaro directory. With ClinicSense, the only communications your clients receive are those you authorize and initiate.
Monthly Membership Management
A growing number of independent massage therapists are adopting the franchise model, which involves customers committing to one treatment per month for a year at a discounted rate. Under this model, their credit card is billed automatically each month. If you use this business model, Vagaro offers a feature to help you manage your memberships.
Online Directory
Vagaro operates an online directory for businesses to list services, increasing visibility and attracting new customers. It supports booking services, making it easier for customers to schedule appointments directly through the platform.
