Fresha vs Salonify

Fresha is appointment-booking software available on the web, iOS, and Android. Businesses can provide booking pages for customers, manage appointments in a calendar, and collect payments. Calendar synchronization works one way. Scheduling options include group bookings and round-robin assignment, while automated reminders support appointment communication. Fresha uses a freemium model with a free plan and a 7-day trial. Its listed plans distinguish team size: Independent is for one team member, while Team supports unlimited team members. The maker, Fresha, is headquartered in London, United Kingdom. The combination of customer booking pages, scheduling modes, reminders, payment collection, and multi-platform access covers core appointment administration for businesses with different staffing levels.

Salonify is a European platform where customers discover and book beauty and wellness appointments while salons manage bookings, POS, CRM, invoicing, marketing, and staff schedules. Clients book through a public page with real-time availability, confirmations, and reminders. Salon tools include staff roles and schedules, service pricing, client records, reviews, analytics, and a calendar. Its POS accepts card, cash, and Apple Pay and is described as syncing with the calendar, inventory, and analytics. Marketing options include loyalty stamp cards, gift cards, coupons, sponsored placement, and an online shop. The free Starter plan is described as free forever and supports up to two staff members; Pro supports up to ten and has a 14-day free trial. Listed prices are €5,900 a month for Pro and €9,900 a month for Enterprise. Native iOS and Android apps are for customers; the business app section is marked “Coming Soon.” Salonify says it serves salons across Europe, supports 12 languages, and offers multi-currency support.
