Where each one falls short

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

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.

TeamSnap

  • Paid plans are per team per month, so a club that lets each team buy its own subscription spends more in total than the organisation product would cost and gets no consolidated administration.
  • The free plan is funded by advertising shown to parents and players, which some clubs and schools consider unacceptable and only discover after rollout.
  • On the club and league side a large share of the cost is the processing fee on registration payments, so the quoted platform fee understates what families and the organisation pay across a season.
  • Statistics, scoring and any form of video or performance analysis are minimal, so a competitive programme needs a second product for anything beyond administration.
  • Governance features that national bodies increasingly require, background screening and compliance tracking among them, are not covered, which is exactly where SportsEngine wins organisation-level deals.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

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.

TeamSnap: Is the free plan genuinely free?

Yes, and it is paid for by advertising shown to parents and players in the application. Removing the advertising is one of the reasons teams upgrade.

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.

TeamSnap: Should each team buy its own subscription?

No. If you have more than a few teams, the club and league product costs less in total and gives you consolidated rosters, registration and scheduling.

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.

TeamSnap: What does registration actually cost the club?

The platform fee plus a processing percentage on every payment. Model the processing on your expected registration volume before comparing quotations.

Bookedin: Who makes it?

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

TeamSnap: Does it handle statistics and scoring?

Barely. It is an administration and communication tool, not a performance one.
