Is there grooming salon software that works in more than one language?
Short answer
Yes — and the useful version translates both sides, because your team and your customers may not share a language. In Argus the staff dashboard and the customer booking portal are both available in 8 languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian and Georgian), each person chooses their own, and your service, breed and size names can be translated too, so a customer reads your price list in their language while your groomers work in theirs.
Translating half the product doesn't help
Plenty of tools offer a translated customer page and leave the staff side in English, or the reverse. Neither solves the real situation in a lot of salons: a team that shares one working language, and a customer base that does not.
What you want is both sides translated independently, with the choice made per person rather than per business — so nobody is reading a second language to do their job, and no customer is guessing at a booking form.
How language is chosen in Argus
Everyone picks their own, and it sticks to their account rather than to the device. For a customer, Argus takes the first answer available: a language they have chosen before, then their saved preference, then your salon's default — always inside the set of languages you have enabled.
- 8 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Georgian
- Staff dashboard and customer booking portal are both translated
- Each person's choice is remembered on their account, across devices
- You decide which languages your salon offers
- Missing translations fall back to the original name, never to a blank
Your price list, not just the buttons
Interface translation is the easy half. The part that matters to a customer is whether your own words are translated — the service they are buying and the size bracket their dog falls into.
Service names, breed names and size categories each take a translation per language. The starter catalogue of 205 breeds and 7 size categories ships with translations already in place, so a customer sees “Klein”, “Pequeño” or “პატარა” without you typing anything — and when you edit one, later updates never overwrite your version.
Where else language shows up
The automated texts are localised too, each in the language that fits it. The review request after a visit goes out in the customer's own language, since it is addressed to them personally. Grooming-due reminders use your salon's default language — one consistent voice for your outbound marketing. Both write the date the way that language writes it, so a customer reads “20 July” or “20 ივლისი” rather than 2026-07-20.
Service names appear translated in a customer's visit history and in your own dialogs, so the same job reads correctly to whoever is looking at it.

Related questions
- Which languages are included?
- English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Georgian — 8 in total, on both the staff dashboard and the customer booking portal.
- Can two members of my team use different languages?
- Yes. Language is per person, not per salon. One groomer can work in Ukrainian while another works in English, on the same calendar and the same appointments.
- Do I have to translate my own service names?
- Only if you want to. Your services, breeds and size categories each accept a translation per language, and the starter catalogue arrives with over two hundred translations already filled in. Anything you leave blank falls back to the original name rather than showing an empty label.
- What if my language isn't on the list?
- Get in touch and we will add it. The catalogue of languages is part of the product, not a plugin, so adding one is a change we make rather than something you configure.
