ARTICHOKE IS HERE TO STAY! Rarely do we come across a platform that does the necessary plus add some awesome features that get our business under control with ease and gives our clients value at the same time. I urge everyone to explore what Artichoke has to offer, I'm more than certain you'll be suprised with whats inside. No other popular app for client management/book keeping/expense tracking comes close... If your goal is to continue working and not waste your time learning a whole bunch of things you don't need for you business, Artichoke is what you want.

Shopping around I have been shopping around for a new system since the one I am currently using is getting too expensive to justify. I liked most of the features on Artichoke, but adding employees to the mix (+25 per employee or $199 for unlimited) would make it more expensive and less robust than the one I have now.

I'm disappointed that this platform… I'm disappointed that this platform hasn't gotten things together. I swear it is run by 1 person and why is there technical support number? I've only been able to submit requests/issues via e-mail. Anyways, about once per quarter, maybe more, the system goes down, without warning, and usually during my busiest times. I'm unable to log-in, cash out customers, check my schedule- nothing. It is beyond irritating. I should have switched after the first round of issues I had early on (regarding certain customers' sales tax not being sent to the processing company and me having to pay out of pocket) when I started my business but didn't want to look unprepared to my customers as a new business. I'm not sure I can take much more of this irritation.

I am loving the ease and versatility I am loving the ease, options and professional presentation of having artichoke as my booking site. It's versatility is inspiring and I cannot recommend it enough to anyone ready to take their online business or online marketing presence to the next level.
