Booksy vs Vagaro,two very different bets.

Both charge per seat, so a two person shop lands in a similar range. The difference is what sits on top: Booksy adds charges tied to new clients from its app, Vagaro adds module costs for things like marketing and extra locations.

Booksy, in most cities, purely because of marketplace presence. If discovery is not your problem and you already have regulars, that presence is something you are paying for twice.

Vagaro, if you genuinely need POS, memberships and inventory in one place. That is a real advantage and no booking only tool replaces it.

Then both are heavier than the job. ZenSched covers the branded booking page, per staff calendars, service durations and buffers, capacity limits and email reminders, at a flat price with a free plan. It does not do POS or payments.

No. There is no POS, no card terminal and no inventory. If running the register is the main job you need software for, a full commerce suite is a better fit. ZenSched handles booking, calendars, staff and reminders.

Not today. ZenSched focuses on the calendar and the booking experience. Payment collection is on the roadmap; for now most customers collect payment in person or through their existing processor.

There is no migration project. You add your services, hours and staff, then share the new link. Most owners run the old system until the last booked appointment passes, then stop renewing it.

Yes. The Free Beta plan gives you a full booking page, unlimited appointments and email reminders. No credit card to start.
