Excluding VAT and Meta’s WhatsApp charges. DunaSoft and Wilapp do not publish a messages-only option: their assistant answers the phone. Wilapp does not say whether its assistant’s amounts include VAT, and DunaSoft has a minimum lock-in of 3 months on Start.
As well as the price, compare the minutes or conversations included, the channels it answers and whether it works directly on the calendar. At Kairox the receptionist is part of the plan and uses the CRM’s calendar and records; in the other programs it is an add-on. How each one works, in the hair salon software comparison, and Kairox’s, in the AI phone receptionist and the AI WhatsApp receptionist.
Which program gives the most for what it costs
It depends on what you need. If a calendar with a till is enough for you, Koibox, PeluGest and Wilapp have the cheapest plans. If you want to attract customers through a marketplace, Booksy, Fresha and Treatwell include it in exchange for a commission. If you need complete management and AI reception in one program, Kairox is the only one in this guide where the receptionist is part of the plan.

What else adds to the cost of a year
The monthly fee is only one part. The real cost over a year depends on the team, messages, commissions, add-ons and contract terms.
- Professionals and users. Each program counts in its own way: per member, per professional, per user or per licence. With three or more professionals, the price order changes.
- Add-ons. WhatsApp, team apps, additional licences or marketing features can be added on top of the fee.
- Reminders and WhatsApp. They may be included, have a monthly allowance or be paid per message; Meta charges for WhatsApp are usually billed separately.
- Marketplace commissions. Booksy, Fresha and Treatwell charge for new customers who arrive through their platform.
- Payment processing. A percentage of each card or online payment.
- Set-up, training and migration. Some programs charge no sign-up fee; others charge for set-up or data migration.
- AI reception. It may be included in the plan or bought separately, with a number of minutes or conversations and a price for going over.
- Lock-in. From none to a minimum 12-month contract.
- VAT: whether the published price includes it.
- What you already have in the salon: whether the software works with your card terminal, your receipt printer or your barcode scanner.
To ask each provider for the total price, you have a template of questions in the guide on how to choose hair salon software.
