Which one is for you
Pick SuperSaaS if
- Fits if you have many customers but few bookings at a time
- Works for rentals, classes and lessons where seats are not the point
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free: 50 future appointments and 50 registered users
- Pricey if bookings pile up: $48 a month for 1,500 future appointments, and more beyond
- Watch out: VAT is added for residents of the EU
- Watch out: web only, with no mobile or desktop apps listed
Pick Zoho Bookings if
- Fits if your team already runs on Zoho CRM, Bigin or Zoho One
- Works for a solo user who wants a free booking page with two-way calendar sync
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want payments on the cheapest plan, as charging at booking needs Premium at $9 a user
- Tight if you're staying free and there's more than one of you, as Free is one user only
- Pricey if you book out lots of rooms or equipment, since bookable resources are paid add-ons
- Tight if you have several branches on Basic, which allows one workspace
- Watch out: revenue reports, the customer portal and the audit log are Premium only, and there's no desktop app

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
