A simpler starting point

See the tools and the price before you commit.

Mindbody positions its plans through a personalised demo. That can make sense for a tailored enterprise setup, but it makes a straightforward comparison harder for a small business.

Ovatu’s plans are public. Start the full system without a card, build your calendar and booking flow, and decide from there.
