Best for studios wanting their own branded member app
Hapana covers scheduling, billing, staff management, marketing and a branded member app, in three tiers up to multi-site and an API. No subscription prices are published, they are billed per location after a call, and card fees and extras come on top.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |

| Value for money | C | No subscription price is published for any of the three tiers, so it sits in the middle until one is on record. Quoted per location. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan and no trial is listed on the pages read. |
| Features | C | Scheduling and billing, a branded member app, marketing tools, reports and multi-site on the dearer tiers. Gift cards, spot booking and the API are held back for Premium and Pro. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and it is quoted through a call and set up per location. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web plus a branded member app, with Zapier, Zoom, ClassPass and Google Tag Manager named. |

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Hapana you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 19 of the 33 other salon, spa and studio booking apps grade higher.
What you could make
- Class booking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- Texts to thousands of numbers, registered with the carriers.
- It plugs into other products, Zapier, Zoom and ClassPass among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Hapana’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
