Frustrated

The recent review mood reads frustrated. Users appreciate small business owners report consistent lead generation from the platform without needing paid advertising spend and integrated messaging and scheduling tools allow service providers to manage client communication within one interface. On the flip side, users report deceptive billing practices where free trials convert to unauthorized charges without clear notification.
