What does Treatwell do well?

Can I use QZee alongside Treatwell?
Do not assume the systems can run together. Treatwell's Partner Terms require partner bookings to be recorded in its calendar and restrict the use of third-party online booking software. Review your Specific Partner Agreement and contact Treatwell before using QZee in parallel, then plan a compliant cutover that protects existing bookings.
