We rewrote the whole thing from scratch when we migrated to Gingr. My staff and I love the convenient tipping option at checkout. > > **Cons**: The electronic message will contain updates and reminders for many pets. Customers' attention spans are short, and they quickly lose interest after learning about a single pet. Our daily rate was easily converted to the Gingr overnight rate. The only other negative aspect of switching to Ginger is that I regret not making the switch sooner. > > It paid off to take my time setting up the software's preferences. The customer service response time is quite good. Everyone who has worked with me or purchased from me has been delighted. ----- ### "Easy to use" — 5.0/5 > **Amanda** | *September 5, 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Booking and managing appointments was simple and straight forward. Easy to find client information and manage it. > > **Cons**: No clear way to communicate with owners about their pet clients. Cannot text message clients. Communication is important. > > Overall great and easy to use. Communication aspects need to be improved but overall great software. ----- ### "Good for Owners, horrible for the end customers" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *August 1, 2024* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: That there is at least an online portal and I can make online payments... one at a time. > > **Cons**: Gingr is horrible to use. It's not customer friendly and takes multiple steps to book an appointment. > > It shouldn't take 17 steps to schedule your dog for boarding. However, Gingr has made that a possibility. It's such a horribly designed product. The workflows are horrible. The experience is horrible. You will see the positive reviews are mainly from Gingr customers, the boarding facilities, not their customers, me. This is the \#1 reason my boarding facility gets ANY negative attention is they made the horrible choice to go with Gingr. ----- ### "Top pet care solution" — 5.0/5 > **Hermann** | *September 21, 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software has secure database that enables us to keep effective pet data. The customer support staff is dedicated with efficient customer care services. It gives us an opportunity to reach customers from snywhere and engage them on various pet care demands. > > **Cons**: This is knowledgeable tool that I will always cherish. Thanks for great support. > > Gingr is able solution that can organize excellent events with simple online booking system. It has provided best materials for implementing successful day-care events. The customization feature has enabled us to fix areas of interest that are aligned to our policies. ----- ### ""Using the Gingr App"" — 5.0/5 > **Jana** | *July 24, 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Online reservation requests, electronic report cards, paperless operations, automated email notifications, etc. have all been made possible thanks to this program. When we moved to Gingr, it was a complete rewrite. Both my crew and I are huge fans of the optional tipping system at checkout. > > **Cons**: Multiple pets' progress reports and reminders will be provided in a single electronic message. After learning about one pet, customers tend to ignore subsequent details. The Gingr nightly pricing was simple to convert to from our daily rate. The only other drawback is that I wish I had made the move to Ginger earlier. > > Spending quality time configuring the software's settings was a rewarding experience. The response time from customer support is excellent. All of my employees and customers have been very satisfied. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/107337/gingr?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/107337/gingr) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
