Sitepresso vs Acuity Scheduling: Full Feature Comparison

What Acuity Does Well

Acuity (now owned by Squarespace) is a mature booking tool with strong intake form support, recurring appointments, and good calendar integrations. If you need complex intake questionnaires before a client books — common for therapists and healthcare providers — Acuity handles this well.

The Website Gap

Acuity is a booking tool, not a website. You need a separate website to direct traffic to your Acuity booking link. That means two tools, two logins, two monthly fees, and a disjointed client experience.

Pricing Comparison

Acuity's paid plans run $16–$61/month. Add Squarespace for a website ($16–$49/month) and you're at $32–$110/month total. Sitepresso is a single bill that covers both.

Client Experience

With Acuity, clients see your website, click a link, and get redirected to an Acuity-branded booking page. The handoff breaks trust — especially for premium service providers. With Sitepresso, the booking flow happens directly on your domain. The client never leaves your branded experience.

Multi-Staff

Both platforms handle multi-staff scheduling. Sitepresso's staff system is built into the same dashboard as your website, services, and customer data — no separate configuration needed.

Verdict

Acuity is a booking tool looking for a website to attach to. Sitepresso is the website and booking system already joined. For new businesses, starting with Sitepresso avoids the complexity of integrating two separate products.
