Common Questions About Switching from vCita

What about my vCita client portal?

vCita's portal is theirs. Nexa doesn't have a client portal — customers receive invoices via email/text. For document sharing, use Google Drive links or Dropbox.

Does Nexa have a mobile app for clients?

No client-facing app. Clients book via web link and receive invoices via email/text. Most service businesses find this sufficient — clients don't want another app.
