BoomCloud vs Velixa

BoomCloud is web-based membership plan software for dental practices. It helps practices create and manage in-house plans, automate recurring payments, and reduce dependence on PPO fee schedules. The platform includes a plan builder, member management, automated billing, payment and opportunity reporting, and reward tracking. Website integration supports online patient sign-up. Pro and Multi-Location plans list Dentrix, Eaglesoft, and Open Dental integrations; other practice systems can be scoped with the team. Pro also includes a Patient Marketplace, a marketplace listing, and a featured listing. BoomCloud says practices retain their brand, pricing, patient list, and enrolled members if they leave. A desktop assistant highlights uninsured patients on the practice schedule and gives front desk staff tools to invite them to join a membership plan. The maker offers a 30-day free trial with setup help, no setup fee, and cancellation at any time. Basic costs $197 a month per location plus $4.50 per member per month; Pro costs $397 a month per location plus $3.50 per member per month. A free option is limited to practices working with a BoomCloud Certified Consultant and up to 10 members.

Velixa combines online bookings, a business diary, payments, and a branded website for salons and service businesses.

Merchants can secure bookings with a Stripe card without charging immediately, then charge the saved card or record cash on the appointment day. Online card payments carry a 3% fee with a minimum of £0.50 per payment; cash has no card-processing fee. The hosted website displays services, prices, appointment durations, a gallery, and online booking. Custom-domain support is included, while domain purchase and renewal are separate. A booking widget can be embedded where the site platform and plan support its code. Velixa lists calendar connections for Google Calendar, Outlook, Microsoft 365, and iCloud, and includes merchant apps for iOS and Android. Memberships, gift cards, loyalty programmes, prepaid packages, reviews, and a waitlist are included. Plans cost £15 a month or £12 a year, each with a seven-day trial and required card.
