Where each one falls short

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

Appointy

  • Free tier caps at 1 staff, 5 services and 100 appointments per month (Internet Archive capture, 3 March 2024)
  • Paid tiers ranged from $19.99 to $79.99 per month billed annually ($29.99 to $99.99 billed monthly), with extra staff seats billed separately at $5 to $7.50 per month (Internet Archive capture, 3 March 2024)

Skedda

  • Pricing is per space with a bundled minimum, so the entry Starter plan is $99 per month for 15 spaces whether or not you use them
  • All published plans are quoted billed annually, with no monthly rate shown
  • The rules and roles engine is basic on Starter and limited on Plus; the full engine requires Premier
  • The insights dashboard is limited on the Starter plan
  • Assigned spaces and unlimited custom fields require the Premier plan
  • A dedicated account manager, legal agreement flexibility and white glove implementation are Enterprise only, and Enterprise carries no published price
  • Every plan, including the cheapest, routes through Talk to Sales rather than self-serve checkout
