Where each one falls short

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

Bookeo

  • Every plan caps monthly bookings: 200 on Solo at $14.95, 1,000 on Small and Standard, 2,000 on Large and 3,000 on X-Large at $119.95
  • The Solo plan at $14.95 per month allows only 1 consultant and 1 staff login
  • Small at $29.95 and Standard at $39.95 both allow 1,000 bookings per month, so the extra $10 buys staff seats rather than capacity
  • SMS and fax messages are a paid add on starting at $0.09 per credit with bundles from $5 for 40 credits
  • Digital waivers are a separate add on starting at $9 per month for 200 waivers

Strava

  • Segment leaderboards, custom goals, workout analysis, offline routes and fitness scoring all require a subscription
  • The $5 a month headline is the annual rate, billed as $59.99 a year
  • The student rate and the Runna bundle are annual only, with no monthly option
