Why Choose GatiNOW Over Acuity

💰

Significantly Lower Cost

Get professional features for €9.99/month vs Acuity's $27-49 plans. Save hundreds of dollars annually.

Integrate Google Meet, Zoom, AND Microsoft Teams. Acuity only supports Zoom.

🔗

Accessible API

API access on Business plan, not locked behind enterprise pricing. Build custom integrations without sales conversations.

Modern Infrastructure

🎯

Flexible Pricing

No forced annual contracts. Start small, scale as needed, cancel anytime.
