Dated, every time
Competitor prices come from their own websites, with the date we checked them printed beside them.
Compare
Side by side. Both sides of each.
Pick what you’re comparing. Every comparison quotes the other side’s own published prices, with the date we checked them — and says where they might still be the better choice for you.
- Their prices, from their pages
- Dated when we checked
- Where they suit you better, too

Which system are you on now?

The maths
What does per-cover commission really cost?
Some platforms charge a fee for every seated diner their marketplace sends you. Bring your own covers and your own rate — the calculator shows what that comes to over a year, and tells you if per-cover works out cheaper for you.
The formula, in fullNothing else is added
- Marketplace covers a month
- yours
- Fee per seated cover
- from your contract
- Months
- 12
- What it costs you a year
- the answer
Then the same sum against a flat ResoFlow plan — and the break-even point, so you can see exactly where the maths tips.
The move
Your guest book comes with you.
Whichever system you’re leaving, the shape of the move is the same — and on free venue setup we do the import for you.
- 1
Export what you have
Ask your current system for a CSV of your guest list and your booking history — it’s your data. Check your contract’s renewal date while you’re in there, so a notice period doesn’t catch you out.
- 2
Import it here
Open Settings → Data import and upload each file. The wizard matches your columns to ResoFlow fields and shows you a preview before anything is written. Customers with a matching email are merged, never duplicated.

Point your links at us
Your booking page is live as soon as setup is done. Put the link on your website, your socials and your Google Business Profile — or embed the booking widget straight into your own site.

How we write them
Every figure sourced and dated.
Features and pricing change — so every guide shows its working.
Their words, not ours
Everything about another system comes from its own public pages. Where a price isn’t published, we don’t guess one.
Both sides, fairly
Every guide has a section on when the other system might suit you better — for some venues, it’s the whole argument.
Not affiliated
ResoFlow is not affiliated with any company these pages compare it with. Each name belongs to its owner, and every claim about them is sourced from their own public pages.
