The short version

  • Only Appointy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Appointy free plan limited to 100 appointments per month; iClassPro flat pricing is per location, so a multi-site operator with several small sites pays the same for a 40-student studio as for a 400-student one.
  • They diverge on capability: Appointy covers Online booking, iClassPro covers Flat per-location pricing.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Appointy

  • Free plan limited to 100 appointments per month
  • Fair usage policy caps daily bookings at 2,000 appointments
  • Highest tier at $99.99/month includes minimal staff count without additional fees specified

iClassPro

  • Flat pricing is per location, so a multi-site operator with several small sites pays the same for a 40-student studio as for a 400-student one.
  • The Premium tier requires a twelve-month contract while the two cheaper tiers do not, which quietly removes flexibility exactly where the price is highest.
  • A branded parent app costs 499 USD setup plus 150 a month, roughly doubling the entry subscription for something many schools assume is included.
  • Payment services are provided in-house and the transaction rate is not published, so a school with high monthly tuition volume pays far more in processing than in subscription.
  • Two-way texting is billed by usage and varies by region, so international operators face an unpredictable communication cost on top of the flat rate.
