Suntan Pro
Helios feels stitched. Suntan Pro feels whole.
When software ages in place, every new feature lands like another patch. Helios shows that age. Suntan Pro starts over with one clear operating surface — and converting is simpler than another year of workarounds.
Switching is straightforward — sandbox first, then a guided cutover.
THE HELIOS PROBLEM
Old bones under a familiar name.
Helios may still open every morning — but the day often feels like navigating a building that was renovated room by room, never redesigned.
- 01 A UI that telegraphs its age
Dense menus, dated patterns, and screens that ask staff to remember where things used to live.
- 02 Features that feel grafted on
Memberships, rooms, and retail rarely share the same rhythm — so the team pays the tax every shift.
- 03 Change that never quite lands
Incremental updates keep the lights on without giving you a modern counter experience.
SIDE BY SIDE
Stop renovating the old house.
Suntan Pro is not another coat of paint on a legacy shell. It is a single workspace built for today’s salon.
ThenAging interface patterns staff apologize for
NowA calm, modern station guests and teams can trust
ThenWorkflows split across bolted-on areas
NowCheck-in through close in one continuous flow
ThenTraining that teaches exceptions first
NowRoles that see the right next step
ThenSoftware that looks busy but feels slow
NowClear actions, fewer dead ends
THE UPGRADE
Replace the stitched stack.
Stop renovating room by room. Give the floor one workspace where check-in, rooms, and close already belong together.
See the difference- 01 One surface instead of another patch
Customer details, checkout, and room status share a single flow — not another bolted-on screen.
- 02 A day that stops showing its seams
Associates host guests instead of remembering which Helios corner holds the next step.
- 03 An owner close without the decoder ring
Sales and floor activity land in one readable picture, not a scavenger hunt across renovations.
EASY TO CONVERT
Moving off Helios is easier than staying.
You do not need another year of workarounds. Practice in a supervised sandbox, convert with a guided cutover plan, and open on one calm station instead of the next patch.
- 01 Rehearse beside live Helios
A sandbox trial lets owners and staff run the real day without touching production Helios operations.
- 02 Cutover as a checklist
We map customers, memberships, catalog, and locations with you so go-live is planned — not another improvised renovation.
- 03 Leave the patchwork muscle memory
Familiar Suntan Pro flows mean associates ramp on one product, not another decade of Helios exceptions.
We walk the move with you — no rip-and-replace weekend required.
