MyTime vs Rosy
The short version
- Each has a real cost: MyTime aimed at chains and franchises from 5 to 500 locations rather than single-site independents; 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: MyTime covers Appointment scheduling, Rosy covers Client management.
