The short version
Which one fits you?
Fresha may suit you better if…
- You want a marketplace that brings new clients and don’t mind a one-time fee for each
- Your team is large and $14.95 per person suits you
- You take most payments in person and want lower card rates
GlamOps may suit you better if…
- You’d rather never pay a share of a new client’s booking
- You want a booking website included rather than a $15.95 add-on
- You want an AI assistant in your plan: Concierge is part of Pro ($49.99), not a $99.95 add-on
- You want 30 days to try everything, not 7
