The short version

  • Only Rosy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 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.; Salon Ultimate multi-location businesses pay per location ($199 per location per month) rather than a flat enterprise rate, and the vendor charges $0.03 per additional SMS message on top of subscription plans, per its own pricing page.
  • They diverge on capability: Rosy covers Client management, Salon Ultimate covers Appointment scheduling.
