This tool is not free–in fact, it costs as much as a subscription to Quickbooks, but it has saved us many hours of data entry. I’ve solved this problem in a way that is suitable for our salon (with about 6 stylists, and roughly 150-200 transactions / week), which uses Baystate Consulting’s Transaction Pro Importer. So if you’re not willing to wait to do your books, you have a problem: how do you get your Vagaro transactions into a form readable by Quickbooks? More importantly, I don’t think that many accountants will accept a product other than Quickbooks–I know ours won’t! Most importantly, the Vagaro product doesn’t exist. I don’t personally think this will work–salons come in all shapes and sizes, and with many different kinds of needs, and Vagaro is a pretty small company.

Vagaro’s stated intention (for some time now) is to build an inhouse bookkeeping software designed for salons. The basic trouble is that while Vagaro stores your transactions and will compute payroll for you, it will not Export those transactions in a manner that Quickbooks can read. I’ll be writing more someday soon about the analyses of our business I’ve run in R using Vagaro data, but now I want to talk about something a little more prosaic: using Vagaro data to do bookkeeping.
It has some reasonable internal tools and widgets that let you query your data in various specific ways, but for any real analysis, of course you want more powerful tools. For organizing finances, it’s not so great.
I think Vagaro is generally a great product for managing stylists, booking appointments, and so on. Like a lot of salons, we use Quickbooks (Online) to manage our bookkeeping tasks. Like a lot of salons, we use Vagaro to manage our scheduling, etc. It’s really not interesting, at all, for anyone else. Attention Conservation Notice: This is a simple post intended for a specialized audience: small salon owners using Vagaro and Quickbooks, who want to be able to track transactions effectively.
