Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Homebase
- Free Basic plan is capped at 10 employees and a single location
- Paid plans are billed per location per month ($30, $70 or $120), so a multi-location business pays the rate again for each site
- Payroll is a separate add-on at $39 per month plus $6 per month per employee paid
- Tip Manager and Task Manager are further add-ons billed per location per month on top of the base plan
Skedda
- Pricing is per space with a bundled minimum, so the entry Starter plan is $99 per month for 15 spaces whether or not you use them
- All published plans are quoted billed annually, with no monthly rate shown
- The rules and roles engine is basic on Starter and limited on Plus; the full engine requires Premier
- The insights dashboard is limited on the Starter plan
- Assigned spaces and unlimited custom fields require the Premier plan
- A dedicated account manager, legal agreement flexibility and white glove implementation are Enterprise only, and Enterprise carries no published price
- Every plan, including the cheapest, routes through Talk to Sales rather than self-serve checkout
