The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Cronometer free tier limited to 7-day report windows; Rosy rosy Salon Software prices at $29/month only with a RosyPay discount, meaning full-price customers pay more than the advertised headline rate; the vendor's own pricing page shows the undiscounted comparison price as an unrendered placeholder ($XYZ/month), so only the discounted figure is a reliable USD number.
  • They diverge on capability: Cronometer covers 80+ nutrient tracking, Rosy covers Online booking.
