Book4Time vs Boulevard (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Book4Time if

• Fits if you run a hotel spa or resort wellness centre
• Makes sense if you already use Agilysys systems

Look elsewhere if

• Not for you if you are a solo practitioner or a small studio, as it is aimed at hotels and large operators
• Skip it if you want a posted price, since the page directs you to a demo
• Watch out: the fullest set of features depends on Agilysys PMS and InfoGenesis POS
• Watch out: no free plan or trial is listed

Pick Boulevard if

• Fits if you run a salon or spa with up to 5 providers and want booking, checkout and marketing in one system
• Works for medspas that need charting, photo markup and e-prescriptions beside the booking calendar

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to try it first: there's no free plan or trial, and every plan is sold after a sales demo
• Tight if you have more than 5 providers or a second location, as that means Premier at $234 a location, normally $293
• Pricey if you need forms below Prestige ($65 a location a month) or QuickBooks sync ($45 a location a month)
• Not for you if you run a medspa on a small budget, as Aesthetics Essentials is $199 a month billed monthly
• Watch out: the card rate isn't on its pages, texts past the plan's allowance are metered, and the AI receptionist is $125 a location a month

Book4Time

• No prices are published; the page directs buyers to a demo and a sales contact.
• It is aimed at hotels, resorts and large wellness operators, not at solo practitioners or small independent studios.
• The vendor positions it as integrated with Agilysys PMS and InfoGenesis POS, so the fullest fit is inside that ecosystem.

Boulevard

• No free plan or trial: every plan is bought through a sales demo, and Essentials is limited to one location and 5 providers.
• Medspa plans cost more. Billed monthly, Aesthetics Essentials is $199, and Aesthetics Premier and Prestige are $364 and $416 on the fall offer ($455 and $520 normally).
• Forms is an add-on from $65 per location a month below Prestige, and QuickBooks Online sync costs $45 per location a month.
• Card payments run through Boulevard's own processing and Duo reader; its pages do not list a processing rate.
