CENTILIO BOOK / SELL · EMBER
Looking for a SimplyBook.me alternative? It is the booking counter.
SimplyBook.me is free for 50 bookings a month with one provider, then $13.90 (in dollars) for 100 bookings and five providers, $29.90 (in dollars) for 500 and fifteen, and $59.90 (in dollars) for 2,000 and thirty ($11.90 (in dollars), $24.90 (in dollars) and $49.90 (in dollars) annually). It is feature-rich and genuinely flexible. The meter is your own success: a good month costs you a plan change. Book never counts bookings on any plan.

Side by side
Centilio Book and SimplyBook.me, honestly.
List prices as published on the vendor's public pages on 7 September 2026. Check their page for today's figure and tell us if we are out of date. Calendly, Acuity, Setmore, Cal.com, Square and SimplyBook.me bill Indian businesses in dollars, so their figures stay in dollars here; ours are in rupees.

What moving from SimplyBook.me will take.
Choose Centilio Book if
Your booking count is near a tier boundary, or a busy month should not cost you more, or you would rather have five settings that are right than fifty you have to reason about.
- Export the future appointments first. They are the only irreplaceable thing in a booking tool. Get them out of SimplyBook.me before the subscription lapses, with the customer's name, email and phone on each one.
- Rebuild the services before the diary. Durations, buffers, who can do what and which need a deposit. Get those right and the appointments import cleanly.
- Run both for a fortnight , with the old booking link redirecting to the new page, so nothing is taken in a diary you have stopped looking at.
- Disconnect the calendars deliberately. Revoke the old tool's calendar access on each account rather than only cancelling the plan, or it keeps writing to a diary nobody is watching.
Questions
About switching.
Are these comparisons fair?
They are meant to be. Every price was read from the vendor's own pricing page on 7 September 2026 and each page says plainly when the other tool is the better buy — which for a single user is most of them.
Which is the closest competitor?
Zoho Bookings, on logic: another suite, another "it is already next to your CRM" argument. It is priced per user and it works today; Book is priced per business and does not exist yet.
Which one would you use today?
Cal.com if you are one person, Setmore if you are up to four, Acuity if you want one polished thing and do not mind the calendar bands, Square if you are a salon that already takes card payments on Square.
