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.
