Catalina
Catalina, our point of sale, has all the tools needed to run a successful School Student Clinic.
A POS built for beauty schools.
The front desk is the customer service front line of every school. Catalina, our point of sale, manages all client interactions, service tracking, and cash handling activity from a touch-screen optimized interface built for beauty school operations.
This isn't a generic retail POS bolted onto a school system. It's purpose-built for cosmetology, barbering, esthetics, nail, and massage schools. Every transaction connects to the student record, the inventory system, the scheduling calendar, and the reporting dashboard.

In-house, online, no clipboards.
Catalina includes a full scheduling system with both in-house and online booking. Clients can book appointments online, and teachers maintain override control to edit the schedule, adjust times, or reassign students based on their discretion.
The scheduling system sends automated appointment reminders to clients, including collecting any additional information required for the service. Massage intake forms, skincare questionnaires, and client check-in forms are all collected electronically in the waiting room before the appointment begins. No clipboards. No paper.
- Online booking with unlimited columns per student or resource
- PC-based and online scheduling for staff and clients
- Teacher-level override on schedule, time, and assignments
- Automated appointment reminders sent to clients

Eliminate the guesswork.
Salon inventory is one of the biggest sources of waste and untracked costs in beauty schools. Prestige eliminates the guesswork with a centralized inventory system that tracks every product across every location from a single management portal.
The School Salon Management Portal lets you define services, prices, inventory requirements, costs, ordering thresholds, inter-school transfers, product receiving, and restocking. All from one place. Each location receives standardized data but can override at the local level when needed.
- Centralized portal to manage services, prices, and inventory across all locations
- Per-location quantity requirements with local override capability
- Automated reorder calculations based on sales activity and stock levels
- Purchase orders with auto-calculated trigger amounts and minimum order quantities
- Inter-school product transfers
- Product receiving and restocking workflows
- Automated Spark alerts for scheduled manual stock counts
- Stock count reconciliation to identify inventory leakage
Product Usage Tracking
The POS calculates exactly how much product is used per service. When a stylist does a color service, the system knows how much color, developer, and other products should have been used. Stock totals are recalculated automatically based on actual service activity, including back bar stock.
This feature identifies real product usage versus what should have been used, making it easy to spot waste, overuse, or theft. It's one of the most powerful cost control tools in the system.
- Product usage defined per service type
- Automatic stock recalculation after every service
- Back bar stock tracking
- Usage variance reporting to identify waste or leakage
- Cost-per-service analysis
Real presence. No buddy-punching.
Clock hours are everything in beauty school. State boards require them. Accreditors audit them. And inaccurate tracking can put your school's compliance at risk.
Prestige's integrated biometric timeclock ensures that the student who clocks in is actually the student who showed up. No buddy punching. No card swiping for a friend. Biometric verification tied directly to the student record.
- Biometric verification (fingerprint or facial) for clock-in/out
- Real-time daily and cumulative hour tracking
- Automated Spark alerts for absences, tardies, and early departures
- Teacher dashboard visibility into who's present, late, or missing

Prestige's gradebook integrates with major online testing systems and connects directly to the Teacher Portal for real-time grade entry and student reporting.

- Practical exam scores entered through the Teacher Portal
- Student-facing grade visibility through the Student Portal
- Weighted grade categories and customizable grading scales
