Bookitit is a well-established Spanish appointment-booking system: clinics, hairdressers, beauty salons, padel or public administration.

It charges per calendar (its public example is €16.90 a month per calendar, paying a year in advance, as of 21 August 2026), so a studio with two rooms and three teachers pays a fee for each one.

If your business is one-to-one appointments, it may suit you.

But a studio sells classes with limited places (eight places, six wheels, a ten-week course) with class passes, memberships, a waiting list and pieces waiting to be collected.

Aforo is built for that and charges one flat rate per business: from €29 a month, with no cap on bookings, whether you have two rooms or twelve, with 0% commission per booking and no minimum term.

Bookitit offers a fifteen-day free trial; Aforo has no trial and no free plan, and the way in is a twenty-minute demo with your own classes loaded.

What do Bookitit's reviews say?

Bookitit has almost no public reviews, and that in itself tells you something. As of 21 August 2026, its Trustpilot profile shows 2.9 out of 5 from only 6 reviews (83% one-star).

It's such a small base that it should be read with caution, even though the visible complaints mention refunds that go unanswered and system outages.

Bookitit sells through sales video calls, not reviews. We don't have reviews yet either, because Aforo is a young product.

That's why this comparison relies on verifiable data from both websites rather than on reviews.

Which works out better: paying per calendar or a flat rate?

It depends on how many resources you have, and a typical creative studio has more “calendars” than you’d think: two rooms, the wheel, three teachers.

With pricing per calendar, every resource adds to the fee. With Aforo the plan is flat, and the €29-a-month plan has no cap on bookings, whether you have two resources or twelve.

Do the maths before you decide, with your numbers and not ours.

No sales pitch

When Bookitit is a better choice than Aforo

  • You sell one-to-one appointments

    One person with one professional at one time is exactly what it's made for, and it has been doing it for years in clinics, hairdressers and beauty salons.

  • You have a single calendar

    With one professional and one space, €16.90 a month paying a year in advance is less than half of Aforo's entry plan. Its model only gets more expensive when there are several calendars.

  • Each professional keeps their own list

    If your calendars don't share capacity or overlap, paying per calendar is a reasonable pricing unit.

    In a studio it isn't, because the places belong to the room, not to the person.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask before switching software, with the date of every fact about Bookitit.

  • How does Bookitit charge, and how does Aforo charge?

    By different units, and that's the difference you notice most as you grow.

    Bookitit charges by number of calendars: its public example as of 21 August 2026 is €16.90 a month per calendar, paying a year in advance.

    Since each room, each professional or each resource usually needs its own, the bill grows every time you add something.

    A studio with four spaces pays four times, and with just two calendars it already costs more than Aforo's entry plan.

    Aforo charges one flat rate per business (€29, €49 or €69 a month) whether you have two resources or twelve, and what decides the plan is which extras it includes, not how many things you have set up or how much you sell.

    It also adds no commission per booking on any of the three, so your monthly bill is the same however much you take.

    That makes the cost predictable on the day you open a new room or take someone on.

  • Does Bookitit work for studios and group classes?

    It works, but it isn't what it's made for, and that shows as soon as you go beyond the basics.

    Bookitit openly presents itself as appointment booking: clinics, hairdressers, beauty salons, sport and public administration.

    If your business is appointments between one person and one professional, it may suit you perfectly well.

    When what you sell is places in a group, the workarounds begin: creating as many slots as there are places at the same time, or one service per place, and repeating every change as many times as there are places.

    And what comes after can't be simulated at all: class passes with an expiry date, monthly memberships with arrears in plain sight and waiting lists that move on their own.

    Nor can priority enrolment by seniority, or pieces that have to go back to their owner with their status and pick-up message.

    Underneath, the data model has no room for a group, and that isn't fixed by configuring it better or paying for another calendar.

  • How much does Bookitit cost?

    It charges per calendar, not per business, so the answer depends on how many you need.

    Its public example as of 21 August 2026 is €16.90 a month per calendar, paying a year in advance.

    A calendar usually corresponds to one professional or one space, so a studio with two rooms and three teachers ends up paying for five.

    Do that sum before comparing fees, because the figure you see on the website is for just one.

    Aforo charges one flat rate (€29, €49 or €69 a month excluding VAT) whether you have two resources or twelve, with 0% commission per booking.

    What decides the plan is which extras you have switched on, not how many rooms, teachers or bookings you have, and changing it takes one click, with no minimum term and no year paid in advance.

  • Does Bookitit have a free trial?

    Yes. As of 21 August 2026 Bookitit offers a fifteen-day free trial.

    Aforo has no trial and no free plan, and we'd rather say so here than at the end of a form.

    The reason is that fifteen days alone with an empty program don't usually prove much: they go by before you've put in your catalogue, timetables or rules, and you end up deciding on a screen that looks nothing like your studio.

    What we do instead takes more work, but on our side: we show it to you in a twenty-minute demo with your classes in it, your prices and your real capacities.

    And if you sign up, there's no minimum term and your data can be exported from day one: if it doesn't fit, you cancel whichever month you like and take it with you.

  • Can I see Aforo before deciding?

    Yes, and it's the only way to see it, because there's no free trial and no zero-euro plan.

    The demo lasts twenty minutes and we come with your real classes already loaded, with your prices, timetables and capacities, so you see your own week working and not a sample studio.

    If you have two rooms and three teachers, they all go into the same plan, which is exactly where the maths changes compared with paying per calendar.

    If you're coming from another program, in that same call we tell you what can be migrated from your current account and what can't, before you sign up for anything.

    There's no commitment and no card involved, and if you'd rather think it over, we won't call you three times that week.

    There's no calendar behind the button yet: you write to us from the contact page with two lines about your studio, and we reply in less than one working day to find a time that suits you.

Come and see it with your classes in it

A 20-minute demo with your real catalogue, no commitment. No minimum term. If it doesn't fit, you export your data and leave.

Write to us and we'll reply within one working day. Please note that Aforo works in Spanish: the dashboard, your booking page and the emails your students receive.
