The short version

  • Each has a real cost: SuperSalon the vendor's own homepage as captured by the Internet Archive on 3 January 2022 stated 'SuperSalon is now a part of Zenoti,' confirming in the vendor's own words that SuperSalon (formerly ProPoint Solutions, LLC) was acquired by Zenoti; no independent SuperSalon pricing survives and the page offers only a demo request under the Zenoti brand; Kitomba no plan price is published; pricing depends on package, features and staff count and is only given after a demo and a discovery call with a Kitomba consultant
  • They diverge on capability: SuperSalon covers Multi-location management, Kitomba covers Appointment booking.
