The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Boulevard pricing is charged per location, so a multi site business pays the full plan fee for each site; DaySmart Spa only one user is included on the entry plan and three on the middle plans, so a spa with eight therapists pays the tier price plus 9 USD per extra head and the headline price bears no relation to the real bill.
  • They diverge on capability: Boulevard covers Intelligent scheduling, DaySmart Spa covers Online booking.
  • 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.

Boulevard

  • Pricing is charged per location, so a multi site business pays the full plan fee for each site
  • The Essentials plan caps the business at 5 professionals; unlimited professionals require the Premier plan
  • Text and email allowances are metered per plan, with email blasts charged at $0.01 each beyond the plan allocation
  • Forms cost from $65 per month per location unless you are on the top Prestige plan
  • QuickBooks integration is an add on at $45 per month per location
  • ePrescribe is $45 per prescriber on top of the plan
  • Enterprise pricing is by consultation with no published rate

DaySmart Spa

  • Only one user is included on the entry plan and three on the middle plans, so a spa with eight therapists pays the tier price plus 9 USD per extra head and the headline price bears no relation to the real bill.
  • Text and email allowances are tiered, so a spa that leans on reminders can be forced onto a much more expensive plan by message volume rather than by needing any additional feature.
  • The unlimited user tier has no published price at all, which breaks the transparency the rest of the range offers exactly at the point where a multi site chain needs to plan a budget.
  • There is no clinical charting, consent capture or medical record handling, so a medi-spa performing injectables or laser treatments needs a second system for patient records and the two will not share data.
  • It is a long established small business product built around a desktop lineage, and reporting and the interface show that age next to newer spa platforms, which matters if you want modern analytics rather than a working till.
