The short version

  • Only Bookedin has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Avoma conversation Intelligence, the capability most buyers actually want, is a 29 US dollar per seat add-on rather than part of the plan, so the real cost of a working sales configuration is at least 53 per user per month against a 19 headline.; Bookedin pricing is per calendar, so a five-staff salon pays roughly five times the headline price and lands above competitors that charge one flat business rate for unlimited staff.
  • They diverge on capability: Avoma covers AI meeting assistant, Bookedin covers Per calendar 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.

Avoma

  • Conversation Intelligence, the capability most buyers actually want, is a 29 US dollar per seat add-on rather than part of the plan, so the real cost of a working sales configuration is at least 53 per user per month against a 19 headline.
  • Seat ceilings are baked into tiers, with Startup capped at 25 seats and Organization at 100, so growth forces a plan change for headcount reasons alone rather than feature reasons.
  • Conversation intelligence on the Organization tier is explicitly limited, meaning teams discover which parts are missing after they have committed to an annual contract.
  • Deal and forecast analytics are considerably shallower than dedicated revenue intelligence platforms, so an organisation that grows into serious pipeline inspection will replace the add-on rather than expand it.
  • Summary quality depends on the note template being maintained, and teams that never configure templates get generic recaps that nobody reads, which quietly turns the subscription into an expensive transcript archive.

Bookedin

  • Pricing is per calendar, so a five-staff salon pays roughly five times the headline price and lands above competitors that charge one flat business rate for unlimited staff.
  • The free plan stops at 50 bookings a month across appointments and classes together, which a modestly busy single operator exceeds in a fortnight, making it an extended trial rather than a usable free tier.
  • It is a scheduler, not a business system: there is no inventory, commission tracking, payroll or point of sale, so growing businesses hit a wall and face a migration to a salon or clinic platform.
  • Payments run through Stripe, Square or PayPal, so you carry their processing fees on top of the subscription and get no negotiated rate from the vendor.
  • Client marketing is limited to reminders and basic notifications, with none of the campaign, loyalty or rebooking automation that competitors in the salon space treat as core.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Avoma: Is 19 US dollars the real price?

Only for the base meeting assistant on annual billing. Adding Conversation Intelligence takes it to 53 per user per month, and Revenue Intelligence takes it to 82.

Bookedin: How much is Bookedin for a team?

Charged per calendar. Plus is about USD 19 per calendar billed annually or 24 monthly, and Pro about 39, so a five-person team on Plus is roughly USD 95 to 120 a month.

Avoma: Do I pay for people who only watch recordings?

No. Viewers and collaborators are free. Paid seats are only required for users whose own meetings are recorded.

Bookedin: Is the free plan usable long term?

Only for very low volume. It caps at 50 bookings per month across appointments and classes combined.

Avoma: Does it replace my scheduling tool?

For most teams, yes. Group and round-robin booking arrive on the Organization tier; Startup includes 1:1 links only.

Bookedin: Does it take payments?

Yes, deposits or full payment at booking through Stripe, Square or PayPal, with those processors fees applying on top of your subscription.

Avoma: Is it a Gong replacement?

Not at the enterprise end. Avoma covers the common conversation intelligence use cases at a fraction of the price but does not match Gong on deal analytics or coaching depth.

Bookedin: Who makes it?

Coldwin Software Inc., a Canadian company that has run the product since 2010.
