Comparisons
Honest alternatives
Most Shopify booking apps are appointment apps: one customer, one staff member, one slot. CapFlow Booking sells places in a shared session. That difference decides which app you want, so each page below states plainly where the other app is the better buy.
Sesami
Sesami is the most enterprise-leaning booking platform on the Shopify App Store, built around resources on an appointment calendar and strong on retail and POS. CapFlow Booking is built around one number instead: how many places are left in the session.
Cowlendar
Cowlendar is the most reviewed booking app on the Shopify App Store, with 2,165 reviews and a deliberately broad feature set covering restaurants, rentals, hotels and appointments. CapFlow Booking is narrower on purpose, and its price does not rise with your takings.
Appointo
Appointo has the most generous free plan of the apps compared here: unlimited services and unlimited bookings at no charge. CapFlow Booking is a narrower product built around sessions with shared capacity, and it takes no percentage of what you sell.
Prices and features on the App Store move. Each page says when it was last checked and links straight to the competitor's listing so you can verify it yourself. Spotted something out of date? Tell us and it gets fixed.
