LOOK BEYOND THE ENTRY PRICE

Appointment capacity or seats: what are you paying for?

With seat pricing, multiply the relevant subscription by the number of paid hosts. With capacity pricing, select the allowance your team needs. Provider limits and feature tiers can also change the result.

For future-reservation models, count bookings held in advance separately from bookings per month. A longer booking horizon can change which package fits.

A FAIR ALTERNATIVE

When Acuity Scheduling may fit better.

Acuity may fit when packages, memberships or gift certificates are essential, or when an established iCloud workflow is a priority.

SWITCH WITH CONFIDENCE

Start small. Keep the customer journey intact.

Review outstanding packages, credits and memberships first. Agree how to honor them before moving bookings or cancelling your previous subscription.

1. Map your setup

Record services, staff hours, existing bookings and customer commitments. Keep a recoverable export where your current provider supports it.

2. Test one service

Check availability, time zones, confirmation messages and payments from a customer’s device. Do not assume an automatic migration.

3. Change your links

Choose a cutover date, reconcile future appointments and update your website links. Avoid running two conflicting booking calendars.
